Mabuhay Phillipines from Solaire Resort Entertainment City

For any Malaysian. food is often the first and most memorable way to connect with a destination. But when it comes to the Philipines, its colourful mesh cultures offer a lot of more than just Jolibee and chicken adobo. From vibrant cuisine to world-class artistry and heartfelt hospitality, the Philippines offers far more to discover—and Solaire Resort Entertainment City serves as the perfect gateway to it all. 

Designed for travellers eager to experience the essence of the Philippines, Solaire brings together the country’s most celebrated cultural elements under one luxurious roof. For first-time visitors, the resort offers an immersive introduction that allows guests to appreciate Filipino traditions, flavours, and creativity without ever leaving the resort.

What is a trip to Philipines without its food? At Oasis, guests can begin their journey with beloved local favourites. Hearty dishes such as Bistek Tagalog—tender beef marinated in soy sauce and onions, best enjoyed with warm white rice—offer comforting, familiar flavours, while classic desserts like Turon bring sweetness to the table with thinly-sliced bananas wrapped in carmelised crisp pastry. Complementing these local offerings, Solaire’s all day dining venue, Fresh presents a thoughtful blend of Filipino and international cuisines, including Chinese, Japanese, and Western dishes, catering to travellers who may crave a taste of home alongside new culinary discoveries.

The Philippines’ deep appreciation for the arts is also proudly showcased throughout the resort. The Theatre at Solaire stands as a testament to the country’s love for performance, having hosted globally acclaimed productions such as Miss Saigon, Wicked, Mamma Mia! and most recently, Les Misérables, running until 1 March 2026. These world-class shows feature not only international performers but also outstanding Filipino talent, highlighting the exceptional standard and versatility of local artists. Beyond the stage, carefully curated artworks by Filipino creators are displayed throughout the resort, transforming public spaces into galleries that celebrate creativity, craftsmanship, and cultural identity.

Adding another dimension to the guest experience, Solaire has recently introduced an upgraded hub for sports and wellness. The Solaire Sports Club reveals a lesser-known side of Filipino culture—one rooted in dedication, discipline, and shared passion. With facilities offering pickleball, padel, golf simulators, and professional coaching services, guests are invited to stay active while discovering local enthusiasm for sport. These activities also reflect the Filipino value of togetherness, encouraging meaningful bonding moments with family and friends.

Above all, a stay at Solaire highlights what Filipinos are perhaps best known for: genuine hospitality. Every interaction with the resort’s staff reflects warmth, attentiveness, and a sincere desire to help, offering guests a glimpse into the values deeply ingrained in Filipino upbringing. The resort’s seamless blend of luxury and comfort mirrors the Filipino way of making others feel at ease—welcomed not just as visitors, but as guests who truly belong.

This experience is only a glimpse into the Philippines’ remarkable culture, natural beauty, and vibrant spirit. Yet through Solaire Resort Entertainment City, travellers gain a meaningful introduction to what makes the country so special—leaving with a deeper appreciation and a warm invitation to explore even more.
