Set along the shimmering bay, Solaire Resort captures the best of the Philippines—gastronomy, culture, entertainment and effortless indulgence
Manila’s Entertainment City glimmers with a kind of magnetic energy that feels both cosmopolitan and deeply rooted in Filipino warmth. At its heart stands Solaire Resort, the first Filipino luxury integrated resort, and one of the World’s Most Luxurious Hotels, where every corner reflects the nation’s flair for hospitality and artistry. Its two towers—the Bay Tower and the Sky Tower, the latter a Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star awardee for nine consecutive years—set a new benchmark for how modern luxury can feel at once grand and personal.

For Malaysian travellers, Solaire represents a sophisticated escape: close enough for a spontaneous getaway, yet worlds apart in experience. Here, indulgence isn’t defined by extravagance alone — it’s about how seamlessly every element fits together. Whether it’s the views of Manila Bay at sunset, the scent of freshly baked pastries drifting through the corridors, or the warmth in every greeting, this is a destination that feels meticulously made for pleasure.

The sense of privacy and exclusivity is palpable. Guests can wake to panoramic bay views, unwind in lavish bathtubs, or enjoy quiet moments of leisure over perfectly brewed coffee. It’s the kind of detail-driven experience that defines the resort’s philosophy of ensuring an excellent guest experience. It’s indulgence, but entirely on your terms.

At Solaire’s 15 dining destinations, gastronomy becomes a global affair. The resort’s culinary offering spans every taste and mood—from the refined Italian charm of Finestra to the bold, regional flavours at Red Lantern and the precision of Japanese artistry at Yakumi, where seafood is flown in fresh from Tokyo’s Toyosu Market. Add to that the lively buffet at Fresh, the riverside elegance of Waterside and the intimate sophistication of Oasis Garden Café. It’s clear why dining at Solaire feels like a journey through the world’s best cuisines without ever leaving the resort.

Evenings come alive at the Solaire Theatre, a 1,740-seat world-class venue with state-of-the-art acoustics and lighting that has hosted everything from international musicals to acclaimed artists and orchestral showcases. The energy continues beyond the stage—cocktails over live jazz, stylish lounges and a vibrant atmosphere that lingers long after the final curtain call. Just steps away, The Shoppes offers a different kind of spectacle: a luxurious arcade lined with the world’s most coveted designer brands, including Louis Vuitton, Dior, Rolex, Gucci, Prada and more.
The art of slowing down

Beyond the glamour, Solaire offers spaces of calm designed for rejuvenation. The wellness spa pampers guests with therapeutic massages and bespoke treatments, while the pool and cabanas invite slow afternoons under the Manila sun. Fitness enthusiasts can find their rhythm at the gym, or simply recharge at the salon for a polished finish before an evening out. For those who prefer privacy, the in-room massage service, available from 12pm to 1am, ensures every stay can be as restful or as indulgent as one desires.
There is also the Solaire Sports Club, the first destination in the Philippines to offer pickleball, padel and golf within a single, state-of-the-art hub. Designed for both performance and pleasure, it reimagines what a luxury sports experience can be—blending world-class facilities with refined social spaces where members and guests can stay active, connect, and elevate their overall well-being.
