Philippines - Mangal Estate Eco-Tourism Development

Mangal Estate is committed to global best practices in the tourism industry, including (a) initiating and supporting the establishment, management and enforcement of an adjacent 200-hectare marine protected area and (b) requiring each resort locator to adopt “zero waste” practices, install its own wastewater treatment system and maximize solar energy use. A resort locator selects any one (or any number) of the nine (9) beachfront lots (ranging from 2 to 4 hectares and each having 50 meters of beachfront) in Phase 1 of the Estate, enters a 20-year lease agreement on its selected lot(s), then constructs and operates its resort on the same. For additional information, please click on the following links: Mangal Estate Brochure, Mangal Estate Phase 1. If a resort locator elects to lease at least 5 hectares, then it can qualify as a Tourism Enterprise Zone or TEZ under the purview of the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) and avail of attractive fiscal and non-fiscal incentives granted by the national government.
