#BoldEscape at Hann Resorts, The First Fully Integrated Resort Up North Day 3

The north is rapidly evolving, with the Clark Freeport Zone emerging as the premier destination. Leading the way with its impressive expansion and development is Hann Resorts, the first fully integrated resort in Central Luzon. It's Day 3 and the last day of a memorable #BoldEscape, and Hann Resorts still has so much to offer and discover...


As more upscale developments rise in Clark, relevant differentiation becomes all the more crucial in setting a brand apart from the rest. For Hann Resorts, being the first fully integrated resort in Central Luzon isn't enough. To cut through the competitive clutter, one has to be bigger and better, different and special with a continuous program in providing the very best customer experience. In three memorable days, I lived the integrated resort experience with Hann Resorts' elevated and luxurious take on gaming, dining, wellness, five-star hotel stays and shopping in a scale far above the competition. You'll need more than just an overnight stay at Hann Resorts to fully appreciate the integrated resort concept. In this third and last post from my #BoldEscape in Clark, it all comes together in a seamlessly woven and tight-knit experience from the pioneering and leading brand in gaming and hospitality (for more on Hann Resorts, see my previous posts for Days 1 and 2 at #BoldEscape at Hann Resorts, The First Fully Integrated Resort Up North Day 1 and #BoldEscape at Hann Resorts, The First Fully Integrated Resort Up North Day 2).
