Boracay Island- Megaworld Hotels & Resorts champions Conscious Tourism, Introduces MEGreen Mindful Stays

As mindful travel continues to shape the future of tourism, Megaworld Hotels & Resorts (MHR), the largest hotel operator in the Philippines, is embracing the movement with the launch of MEGreen Mindful Stays, which is a unified sustainability stay program designed for today’s rising breed of conscious travelers who seek meaning and positive impact in every journey.

“At Megaworld Hotels & Resorts, we want to do more for the growing movement of mindful travelers and become instrumental in this important shift. The recent disasters we have witnessed
across the Philippines remind us that sustainability is no longer optional, it is the only way we should go forward. Through MEGreen Mindful Stays, we hope to inspire guests to travel with deeper
intention,” Cleofe Albiso, Managing Director of Megaworld Hotels & Resorts, said.

“Mindful travel goes beyond choosing greener options, it calls for a complete shift in mindset. It is about understanding the impact of every decision we make while traveling, from how we consume to how we connect with local communities. By embracing this mindset, we can collectively create more meaningful journeys for our guests,” she added.

MEGreen Mindful Stays is rooted in MHR’s long-standing commitment to environmental responsibility and community empowerment. The program reflects the group’s belief that hotel
stays can be greener while making a greater difference. Guests are encouraged to make thoughtful choices throughout their visit, becoming active partners in shaping a more sustainable tourism
landscape in the Philippines.

Designed to celebrate sustainability, community, and purposeful travel, MEGreen Mindful Stay invites guests to slow down and savor experiences rooted in intention. A minimum two-night stay
comes with well-balanced and locally sourced dishes, carefully curated turndown touches, and keepsakes that inspire mindful living long after the trip. Travelers may opt for the MEGreen Mindful
Stays program in any MHR property across the country.

Supporting Communities Across the Philippines

A portion of each booking directly supports MHR’s partner communities and initiatives across its destinations, including the Ati Komunidad in Boracay, which preserves indigenous heritage and
livelihoods; Project PEARLS in Manila, which provides nourishment and educational support to underprivileged children; Visit Iloilo campaign, which supports various heritage, culture, and art-
based programs and advocacies in Iloilo; Coral Reef Care in Mactan, Cebu, focused on reef restoration and marine protection; and the Highland Farmers & Forest Guardianship initiative in
Tagaytay, which sustains farm-to-table harvests and preserves cool-climate greenery.

Aside from the abovementioned room package, MHR is also integrating deliberate, property-wide actions that make sustainable habits more effortless for guests, from greener dining choices to
responsibly sourced amenities and operational practices designed to minimize environmental impact.

The soon-to-open Chancellor Hotel Boracay is MHR’s newest 554-room property in the tourism estate of Boracay Newcoast known for its private beach and stunning views of the iconic keyhole
rock formation. Positioned between Belmont Hotel Boracay’s business-and-meetings escape and Savoy Hotel Boracay’s vibrant energy, Chancellor Hotel Boracay offers immersive, wellness-led
experiences that encourage guests to slow down, reconnect, and savor the very best of the island.
