Considered Asia-Pacific’s most prestigious travel industry award-giving body, the TTG Travel Awards recognized Okada Manila’s premier facilities and services, its excellent client service and its capability to effectively cater to the evolving needs of business travelers and planners specializing in Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, and Exhibitions (MICE).
The awards are voted by travel consultants, tour operators and destination management companies. The TTG Travel Awards ceremony and gala dinner took place at the Centara Grand at CentralWorld, Bangkok, Thailand last Sept. 26.
“This recognition is another testament to how we raise the standards with our premium MICE offerings. Okada Manila is an outstanding BT-MICE venue and our services are consistently topnotch,” said Cielo Reboredo, vice president for sales and marketing at Okada Manila.
Reboredo added that Okada Manila, which is near three of the country’s busiest airports, enjoys a strategic location. The property’s premier business facilities and services are complemented by topnotch amenities, making it an ideal venue for MICE events. With 30 hectares of prime land, Okada Manila is a one-stop destination for business and leisure travelers.
“Our seasoned sales team members are ready to cater to our clients and guests, bringing their extraordinary events to life and overall, giving them a wonderful resort experience,” said Reboredo.
Throughout the years, Okada Manila has been an essential partner in the success of countless events. From business conferences to gala nights, and other big corporate milestone celebrations, the integrated resort has been a primary venue choice for business travelers and MICE planners.
Corporate events can be mounted in any of the expansive ballrooms and elegant function rooms at Okada Manila. Spanning 4,522 square meters, these versatile spaces can cater to meet the many varying event requirements.

For MICE planners looking for a more unique and vibrant venue, Okada Manila also has Cove Manila. It is Southeast Asia’s largest and grandest indoor beach club that doubles as an events venue. The magnificent 9,000-sq. m. event space is enclosed in a 30-meter-tall and 100-meter-wide UVA and UVB-protective glass dome, which allows for a spectacular view of the sky and Manila Bay. It can house fun and lively events perfect for capturing the essence of a tropical getaway.
There’s also the Chairman’s Lounge, which is perfect for a more intimate setting. It’s a lavish and cozy space with refined interiors. Late afternoons here ensure a view of The Fountain, the iconic multicolor dancing water display of Okada Manila, on one side and the stunning Manila Bay sunset on the other.
