Together as One: Megaworld Hotels’ Christmas Tree Lighting

Share

The year 2020 may have been a challenging year for most of us, but we, at Megaworld Hotels believe that the best is yet to come. 

With this, it is quite timely and significant that we gathered all our 10 homegrown hotels for the first time in one Christmas Tree Lighting event, strengthening our solidarity as a group and anchoring on the event theme, Together as One. 

Together as one, we intended to spread positivity to our guests and associates alike, with an entertaining yet inspiring event, which featured the symbolic Tree Lighting Ceremony by the different Hotel General Managers led by Megaworld Hotels Group General Manager, Cleofe Albiso at Eastwood Richmonde Hotel for Manila, supported by the rest of our properties in Tagaytay, Iloilo, Mactan, and Boracay.

The event also honored our team members affected by the current pandemic situation thru a moving video. It was indeed a clear message of hope and inspiration, that no matter what, we will overcome these trying times together as one.

GGM Cleofe Albiso in her message said, “This is a celebration of the undying support of all our guests who have stayed at Megaworld Hotels despite the new realities.  A celebration of the owners who have continuously backed the hotels and its associates. This definitely deepened the commitment as well as the loyalty of the employees and will surely go a long way. More so, this celebration is a thanksgiving for all the hardwork of the associates of Megaworld Hotels who made it through being frontliners in this time of pandemic. To all the employees on furlough for their trust and confidence that one day we will work back together again.”

Finally, viewers were treated with a wonderful holiday musical ensemble featuring The LOVE Project artists, Singing Sensations, James Uy, and Jon Joven in partnership with Resorts World Manila.
