Company Info

Its properties are known for warm Asian hospitality, high service standards, distinctive dining and extensive guest facilities. In the Philippines, Shangri-La operates well-established luxury hotels and island resorts, including properties in Manila, Cebu and Boracay. Employees generally work in multicultural teams and receive opportunities to develop careers across rooms, food and beverage, culinary, wellness and support functions.

Destination Guide

The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Bohol and other resort destinations, especially in culinary, guest services, housekeeping and tourism management. Life varies from busy urban centers to relaxed island communities, with warm weather, beaches, strong family culture and generally welcoming English-speaking residents. Costs are usually lower than in many international destinations, although popular resort islands can be expensive and seasonal. Foreign employees normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and an Alien Employment Permit, followed by the appropriate visa or stay authorization; requirements can change, so confirmation with the employer and Bureau of Immigration is essential. Relocating staff should budget for transport, healthcare, housing deposits and rainy-season disruptions. Local food, festivals, diving and outdoor activities are major attractions, while traffic, humidity and occasional typhoons require adjustment.
