A spectacular luau at Sea Wind

Beach-loving guests from the entertainment, business and social circles recently had a swell time in paradise as Sea Wind, the favorite family-friendly resort in the Boracay island, led by dapper president Frederico “Boy” Jarantilla and his wife Ruth, hosted a festive luau at the resort’s inviting beachfront. Amidst the venue’s captivating set-up highlighted with romantic candle-lit lanterns and rustic fixtures, affable Sea Wind events specialist Emma Lagoc warmly welcomed celebrity guests Angelika dela Cruz and husband Orion Casareo, Donita Rose and husband Eric Villarama, broadcast journalist Pinky Webb and TV host and reporter Ginger Conejero who felt truly at home as they experienced the resort’s trademark hospitality, impeccable service and intimate setting. When it comes to hosting celebrations, Sea Wind didn’t disappoint as it treated everyone to a night of merriment replete with a superb dinner buffet, spectacular fire dance show and foot-stomping music. What a fantastic celebration indeed!

Cheers to Sea Wind!

Macau is love

Building and house construction genius Hugo Lozano enjoyed the luxurious scenery of Macau as he welcomed another great year in his life. The Macau retreat is a gift from his wife, interior designer Chat Fores Lozano. The trip was made more wonderful as the lovely couple spent some quality time together.

Happy birthday, Hugo. Cheers!

Johnny congratulates...

Zonta Makati president Olga Martel couldn’t be more proud as Makati Zontians, including Monaco Consul General and Johann Strauss Society of the Philippines (JSSP) chairman Fortune Ledesma and Museum Foundation of the Philippines and annual Filipino Heritage Festival president Mita Rufino, received Excellence Awards during the recent Loyalty and Area 5 Appreciation Day. Ledesma was awarded “The Knight in the Order of St. Charles” by Monaco Prince Albert II and the “Decoration in Honour of Gold” by Austria president Dr. Heinz Fischer for services rendered to the Republic of Austria. Rufino was cited by People Asia as one of the “Women of Style and Substance 2009.” She was also chosen by the same magazine as one of its “People of the Year” for her outstanding contributions to the Philippine art and culture.
