At the heart of every great stay is a warm welcome, and at Belmont Hotel Boracay, located in the sprawling Boracay Newcoast, that greeting now comes with a wagging tail and a whole lot of love.
Meet our newest team member: an adopted dog who has found not only a forever home in the hotel but also a meaningful role bringing smiles to associates and guests from near and far.
Meet Pua: The Heart of the Hotel
At the heart of this initiative is Pua, the hotel’s resident dog from Boracay Animal Adoption Rescue Center. More than just a mascot, Pua symbolizes the hotel’s commitment to fostering a positive work culture. Studies have shown that having pets in workplaces can reduce stress, improve communication, and create camaraderie among employees. Pua’s adoption last November 2024 aims to lower workplace absenteeism and promote teamwork while providing guests with a warm and welcoming presence.
“Pua has already become a beloved member of our team, and our associates enjoyed their special time with her,” says Maia Israel, Area General Manager for Boracay Newcoast hotels, including Belmont Hotel Boracay and Savoy Hotel Boracay.
“At Belmont Hotel Boracay, we believe that vacations are best enjoyed with every member of the family, including our beloved pets. We’re excited to offer an island home for travelers along with their furry babies,” she adds.
The adoption of Pua aligns with research highlighting the benefits of pet-friendly environments. Pets have been found to alleviate tension, improve mental health, and even enhance productivity in workplaces. For Belmont Hotel Boracay, these advantages extend beyond its associates to its guests, creating a unique and memorable stay for travelers.
A Growing Trend in Hospitality
The demand for pet-friendly accommodations has surged in recent years, with travelers increasingly viewing their pets as family members. Recognizing this shift, Belmont Hotel Boracay has tailored its services to meet the needs of pet owners who want their four-legged friends to be part of their tropical adventures. From dedicated pet areas in Boracay Newcoast to pet-friendly dining options, the hotel ensures that both pets and their owners feel right at home on the island.
“Pawsome Adventures”
Embracing the joy and comfort pets bring, Belmont Hotel Boracay proudly launches its first-ever pet-friendly services, “PAWsome Adventures,” highlighting pet-friendly stays and dining, to create a more inclusive and stress-free retreat for families and travelers.
With the “Paws & Relax” room package, guests and their pets can indulge in a tropical retreat complete with comfortable accommodations, breathtaking surroundings, and exclusive pet perks.
With room rates starting at PHP 5,200 for an overnight stay in a Deluxe Room, guests can enjoy pet-friendly stays and a VIP Paws Experience for their furry babies. Special welcome amenities include a cozy pet bed, food bowl, disposable towels, and even a litter box for feline guests, because every guest– paws or no paws–deserves VIP treatment. They even get to have their own VIP Pet Identification Card upon check-in.
Belmont Café is also rolling out a dedicated pet menu, crafted especially for four-legged companions. From pet-friendly cakes to a hearty Doggo Lasagna, each dish is made with love, using safe and nutritious ingredients that will have tails wagging in delight.
