CG Hospitality Global, the hospitality arm of CG Corp Global, has announced an exciting expansion in partnership with Marriott International through the conversion of the iconic wellness resort The Farm at San Benito into The Farm at San Benito, Autograph Collection.
This landmark transformation is set to open to guests in Q3 2025, introducing a new level of luxury wellness to Southeast Asia.
First Autograph Collection Property in Philippines
This marks a significant milestone as the first Autograph Collection property in the Philippines, showcasing CG Hospitality’s commitment to luxury, wellness, and globally curated experiences.
It underscores the group’s strategic focus on expanding into high-growth markets such as the UAE and Southeast Asia.
“Our UAE operations have been the cornerstone of CG Developers’ strategic growth. From our pioneering projects in Dubai, including the luxury Taj hotel at Jumeirah Lakes Towers, we have consistently pushed the boundaries of innovation and excellence. As we prepare to unveil our world-class development on Dubai Islands, we are once again reinforcing our deep commitment to shaping the future of this dynamic market,” said Rahul Chaudhary, Managing Director & CEO, CG Corp Global & CG Hospitality Holdings.
A wellness destination
Aligned with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum for a thriving wellness economy, this development aims to make transformative wellness experiences more accessible across the Middle East. With over one million Filipinos residing in the UAE, this new offering resonates deeply with a community already celebrated for its warmth, service excellence, and cultural richness.
