Experiencing true luxury is not just about opulent surroundings—it is about seamless service, curated experiences, and unforgettable moments. For travelers seeking world-class hospitality, wellness, and entertainment, Okada Manila offers precisely that. Celebrating seven consecutive years as a Forbes Travel Guide 5-Star property, the integrated resort sets a benchmark for excellence that both local and international visitors can experience firsthand, making every visit not just a stay but a journey in comfort, sophistication, and leisure.
A Legacy of Unmatched Hospitality
Okada Manila, the Philippines’ largest integrated resort, has once again secured the prestigious Forbes Travel Guide 5-Star rating, a distinction it has maintained since its inaugural recognition. In tandem, The Retreat Spa at Okada Manila earned its fourth consecutive Five-Star recognition, affirming the resort’s commitment to excellence across both hospitality and wellness.
“This recognition reflects our dedication to creating meaningful, memorable experiences for every guest,” said Robert Scott, vice president for hotel operations at Okada Manila. “From our rooms to our spa services, we aim for perfection at every touchpoint, combining meticulous attention to detail with the warmth of Filipino hospitality.”
Forbes Travel Guide conducts independent, anonymous inspections that emphasize service quality, operational discipline, and consistency. Maintaining a 5-Star rating year after year places Okada Manila among the world’s finest hospitality destinations, reinforcing its reputation as a premier integrated resort in Asia.
An Integrated Guest Journey Like No Other
What sets Okada Manila apart is its holistic approach to guest experiences. Every element—from luxurious accommodations to world-class dining, gaming, entertainment, and wellness—is carefully curated to maintain a unified standard of excellence.
The Retreat Spa, with its bespoke treatments and serene atmosphere, has consistently impressed Forbes inspectors. Guests, such as luxury travel enthusiast Ana Ramirez, shared, “The Retreat Spa isn’t just about relaxation—it’s an experience that rejuvenates both body and mind. Every visit feels personalized, and the staff’s attention to detail is unparalleled.”
Meanwhile, the resort’s accommodations blend comfort and sophistication across 1,001 rooms, offering panoramic views, elegant interiors, and digital innovations that make every stay seamless. Whether marveling at the world-renowned Fountain or exploring the expansive gaming floor, visitors are treated to a cohesive journey where luxury meets accessibility.
Global Recognition Beyond Forbes
Okada Manila’s accolades extend well beyond Forbes Travel Guide. The resort has received numerous awards, including Best Integrated Resort Asia at the Asia Gaming Awards and Best Meetings and Convention Hotel in the Philippines at the TTG Travel Awards. Culinary achievements, such as Ginza Nagaoka’s MICHELIN Selected recognition, further highlight the resort’s commitment to excellence across all experiences.
These honors collectively demonstrate that Okada Manila is more than a hotel—it is a destination where entertainment, wellness, gastronomy, and luxury hospitality converge to create memories that linger long after a guest departs.

The resort exemplifies how local excellence can meet international benchmarks, giving guests a taste of luxury that is both aspirational and accessible.
As owner Kazuo Okada said during the 2026 Forbes announcement, “Our vision has always been to create a space where every guest feels extraordinary. Seven consecutive years of Forbes recognition is a testament to our team’s dedication and to the Philippines’ capacity to host world-class integrated resorts.”
