MANILA, Philippines – Manila’s newest resort and casino Okada Manila opened its doors for a sneak peek and a Christmas concert on Wednesday, December 21.

The celebration marks the beginning of Okada Manila’s preview period – the Pearl Wing lobby and part of its casino are open for viewing “24 hours a day, 7 days a week,” according to their website.

The Pearl Wing, with its pink interiors and capiz Christmas tree, is the lobby that visitors will see as they go through the main entrance of the resort. 

From the outside, visitors can see the hotel’s shining gold exterior and its grand entryway.

Only part of the hotel and casino is open to visitors for now, as the resort is still in construction. Okada Manila is set to open in 2017. 

Meanwhile, at the Christmas celebration, hosted by Rico Robles, Toni Gonzaga, and Luis Manzano, Kazuo Okada himself was there to greet the audience a Merry Christmas before launching the fireworks show.
