Hann Development Corp (HDC), the owner and developer of Clark’s Hann Resorts, has officially broken ground on its ambitious luxury golf resort project – Hann Reserve.
The expansive 450-hectare site in New Clark City, Tarlac, will eventually feature PGA-affiliated player development facilities alongside three 18-hole championship golf courses, an array of luxury hotels and resorts plus clubhouses, a mixed-use commercial center, premium villas and residences, and a 10-hectare public park.
The three golf courses to be built will include a mountain course designed by Nicklaus Design, a valley course by South Korean professional golfer KJ Choi, and a Sir Nick Faldo Signature river course designed by the six-time major winner himself.
Part of the company’s 10-year strategic development plan, Hann Resorts will will create a “synergy of luxury and play in Pampanga through its world-class integrated resorts, Hann Reserve and Hann Casino Resort, by creating pleasurable and globally competitive lifestyle experiences in the Philippines,” the company said.
Present at Friday’s groundbreaking was Faldo himself, alongside HDC Chairman and CEO Daesik Han, Lady Lindsay Faldo and Hann Assistant Vice President for Corporate Planning, Development, and Compliance Neki Liwanag.
A reception held afterwards was also attended by Senator Mark Villar, House Speaker Martin Romualdez, PAGCOR Chairman Alejandro Tengco, Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) Chairman Delfin Lorenzana, Clark Development Corporation (CDC) Chairman Ed Pamintuan, and CDC President & CEO Agnes Devanadera, among others.
“As promised, we never stop here at Hann,” said Mr Han. “After giving you the first fully integrated resort in Clark, we now bring to life another dream concept as we officially start the construction of Hann Reserve.
“It is our pride and pleasure to create Hann Reserve in the stunning natural setting of New Clark City in collaboration with Accor, Marriott International, and Professional Golfers’ Association of America (PGA) and, of course, with the support of PAGCOR, BCDA, CDC, and the LGUs. Together, this landmark development will usher in the most luxurious and exclusive golfing and leisure experience for golfers and non-golfers alike, families, and business-leisure travelers.”
Faldo added, “The vision of Mr Han in creating Hann Reserve is very impressive and I am very excited that my first Sir Nick Faldo Signature design in the Philippines will be in New Clark City. The high-end quality of Hann Reserve aligns well with the goals and objectives we have at Faldo Design and I look forward to working very closely with Mr Han to create one of the best golf courses and overall golf experiences in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.”
