The Bellevue Hotels and Resorts undergoes expansion in Panglao, Bohol

On October 26, Filipino-owned corporation The Bellevue Hotels and Resorts breaks ground in Tawala, Panglao, where the 4-hectare commercial and residential property Bellemar will soon rise. The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by The Bellevue Hotels and Resorts Chairman Johnny Chan; B Hotels Managing Director Ryan Chan; The Bellevue Manila Managing Director Patrick Chan; The Bellevue Resort Managing Director Dustin Chan; The Bellevue Hotels and Resorts Board Director Arthur Lopez; The Bellevue Resort General Manager Rommel Gonzales; Bohol Provincial Administrator Atty. Kathyrin Fe Pioquinto; Bohol District Board Member Hon. Aldner Damalerio; Panglao Mayor

Hon. Leonila Montero; Principal Arch. Jonathan Gan; JERCC owner and Project Consultant Bim Sebastian; Finmat owner Reynaldo de Jesus; suppliers, local partners and friends from the media.

The development is 800 meters from the Alona beach shoreline and 600 meters from the commercial center of Alona. It will boast of architectural aesthetics inspired by the Philippines’s Spanish heritage. The idea behind this is to mirror the local heritage of Bohol.

The first phase of the project will feature nine commercial pavilions housing a variety of local and international businesses, including food and beverage, supermarket, technology, amusement, services, lifestyle and specialty, wellness and government satellite offices.

The development will be the first to have a full mall establishment in the vicinity wherein the supermarket alone will have an area of 2,000 square meter. It envisions to bridge the commercial gap by providing the market with activities throughout the day.

The second phase will pave the way for the hotel group to expand the reach of its signature world-class service and genuine Filipino hospitality with the opening of its fifth property in the country.

Locals and tourists alike can look forward to a new and exciting Bellevue experience as Bellemar is set to open by the third quarter of 2020.
