Bloomberry Resorts Corp, the owner and operator of Manila’s Solaire Resort & Casino, is set to buy a stake in Emerald Bay. Initial details of the transaction were filed with the Philippine Stock Exchange on Wednesday by both Bloomberry and Emerald Bay’s parent company PH Resorts Group.

Also some construction details of the Emerald Bay Resort were revealed:

Designed by Steelman Partners, Phase 1 of the resort is planned to boast 4,154 square meters of gaming floor with 600 slot machines, 122 gaming tables, a 270-room five-star hotel, five food and beverage outlets and a “partially completed 300-meter-long beach front that will be open to resort guests.”

Phase 2, planned to be completed by 2027, is expected to add another 8,210 square meters of gaming floor, 729 slot machines, 146 gaming tables, 780 five-star hotel rooms, five villas, four pools, MICE facilities and 16 food and beverage outlets.

PH Resorts announced it was putting on hold the development of a separate casino investment in the Clark Freeport Zone, on the main island of Luzon. The company said that the country’s gaming regulator had approved the request from one of its units to suspend the provisional gaming license for that project “until further notice”.

The filing stated: “The voluntary suspension also allows PH Resorts to ramp up and focus all efforts for the construction and development of its flagship integrated resort and casino project, the Emerald Bay Resort and Casino, located in Mactan, Cebu.”

The same person who uploaded the aerial video of Emerald Bay which I posted before, just uploaded an update video on the aftermath of the Typhoon Rai (Odette) on the ongoing Mactan resort projects.

This is Emerald Bay as of today: Construction still hasn't been resumed since the start of the pandemic.

This is the current design.

Delay in completion due to COVID

PH Resorts Group Holdings Inc, promoter of Emerald Bay (pictured in a rendering), an under-construction casino resort in Cebu, in the Philippines, has flagged a new completion date for the first phase of the complex.

In a Monday filing, PH Resorts said that phase was now “expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023.” The company had previously mentioned first-phase completion in the third-quarter 2022.
