Just a short three-and-a-half-hour flight from Kuala Lumpur, this landmark destination in Manila’s vibrant Entertainment City is the Philippines’ first integrated luxury resort, redefining what it means to escape, unwind, and play. For Malaysians craving a premium getaway without the long-haul fatigue, Solaire offers that ideal fusion of world-class indulgence and warm Filipino hospitality that instantly feels like home, only more extravagant.
This season, Solaire invites travellers to rediscover the art of leisure through its “Your Play, Your Way” campaign. It’s a celebration of individuality, indulgence, and the joy of doing things your own way. Whether your idea of play means a weekend of fine dining and shopping, a wellness retreat under the Manila sun, or nights filled with music and laughter, every kind of traveller gets to find a rhythm that is made for them.
Every stay feels like a celebration

The experience begins the moment you arrive at Solaire’s twin towers: the Bay Tower and the Sky Tower, which together house 793 rooms, suites, and villas designed for unparalleled comfort and sophistication.
The Sky Tower has earned the coveted Forbes Travel Guide 5-Star rating for seven consecutive years, securing its place among the World’s Most Luxurious Hotels. Inside, every room is a retreat of its own, adorned with local artworks, plush furnishings, and wide windows framing Manila Bay’s iconic sunset.
For those seeking the pinnacle of indulgence, the Chairman’s Villa offers panoramic bay views, private dining, and a personal butler service, which is an experience that epitomises luxury, Filipino-style.
Even the smallest touches – from rain showers and deep soaking tubs to curated toiletries and ambient lighting – reflect Solaire’s dedication to elevating the everyday. For Malaysians used to world-class hospitality, this feels both familiar and refreshingly distinct: the warmth of Southeast Asian culture, paired with the precision of five-star service.
A culinary playground for every palate

For Malaysians, travel and food go hand in hand, and Solaire delivers on both counts. With over 15 dining venues available within the property’s vicinity, the resort transforms every meal into an adventure of flavours.
At Finestra, prime cuts and handmade pastas meet sweeping sunset views. For fans of authentic Japanese fare, Yakumi serves the freshest sashimi and seafood flown in directly from Tokyo’s Toyosu Fish Market. And for those who can’t resist Chinese cuisine, Red Lantern brings a contemporary twist with dishes that comfort and surprise in equal measure.
Casual dining finds its place at Solaire too, whether that’s a laidback lunch at Waterside, drinks by the pool, or afternoon tea at Oasis Garden Café beneath a canopy of glass and greenery. As the day draws to a close, the resort transforms yet again with the sky glowing in pink over Manila Bay. It’s surely a one-of-a-kind experience waiting to be uncovered.
Retail therapy, elevated

If shopping is your sport, The Shoppes at Solaire might just be your new favourite arena. This elegant retail arcade is lined with the world’s most coveted luxury brands, from Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Dior, and Cartier, to Rolex, Omega, and Saint Laurent.
Each boutique feels intimate yet inviting, extending a shopping experience that mirrors the resort’s aesthetic: sleek, sophisticated, and serenely exclusive. Whether you’re hunting for a statement handbag, a new timepiece, or the perfect gift to bring home, this is retail therapy at its finest.
The art of relaxation

Every great getaway deserves slower moments amidst all the excitement and Solaire offers plenty. The Solaire Spa is a sanctuary of calm, with an extensive menu of massages, facials, and body treatments designed to melt away tension. For guests who prefer basking outdoors, the swimming pool and cabanas offer access to Manila’s golden sun.
Meanwhile, fitness enthusiasts can find their flow at the resort’s fully equipped gym and wellness centre, while the salon caters to those looking for a fresh look before a night out.
For something a little more unconventional, the Sky Range Shooting Club – a sleek, ultramodern indoor range – brings a rush of thrill to the mix, balancing Solaire’s luxury with a touch of adrenaline.

Where entertainment and excitement come alive
At Solaire, every night feels like a celebration. The resort’s Lyric Theatre sets the stage for unforgettable performances, from spectacular musicals to concerts featuring international stars. With 1,740 seats, cutting-edge acoustics, and a grand sense of occasion, it’s where Manila’s cultural heartbeat shines the brightest.
Just beyond the theatre, another kind of thrill unfolds across Solaire’s expansive gaming floors, which is a world designed for those who appreciate elegance and energy in equal measure. Here, the space that rivals the finest entertainment destinations in Asia, offering guests the freedom to play, relax, and immerse themselves in the moment.
Whether you’re applauding a standing ovation or chasing that next big win, Solaire brings together the best of both worlds: entertainment and exhilaration, all under one glamorous roof.

A gateway to Manila’s many charms
While Solaire easily holds your attention for days, its location makes it a perfect base for exploring Manila. The city’s historical district, Intramuros, is a short drive away, while Bonifacio Global City (BGC), Manila’s answer to Singapore’s Marina Bay, is where you’ll find trendy cafés, rooftop bars, and art galleries.
And if retail calls once again, SM Mall of Asia, one of the world’s largest shopping centres, is just around the corner. With direct flights from Kuala Lumpur to Manila available daily, it’s an easy weekend escape that’s close enough to be convenient, yet far enough to feel like a world away.
Your play, your way

At Solaire, luxury is never one-size-fits-all. Whether your definition of decadence is a spa retreat, a fine dining marathon, or a weekend of theatre and shopping, you’ll find that every experience here can be shaped to your liking.
It’s this freedom to relax, explore, and indulge your way that sets Solaire apart. The resort’s promise is simple: to make every guest feel at home in the most extraordinary way possible.
So as the year draws to a close and the holiday season beckons, perhaps it’s time to plan that quick escape across the sea. Let Manila’s ultimate playground of luxury remind you that the best kind of travel isn’t about ticking off a list. Instead, it’s about playing and doing it your way.
