The destination’s gigantic holiday centerpiece boasts decor that pays tribute to the woodlands, adorned with animals nestled among its branches and balls with striking animal prints. Beside it, a human-sized religious nativity, otherwise known as Belen, set a reminder of the timeless story that binds this festive season together.
Themed “A Starlit Christmas at the Woodlands,” each detail evoked the untamed beauty of nature, creating a wildlife display that resonates with One Tectona Hotel’s core as a premier hotel wreathed with pocket forests at a highland locale in the Municipality of Liloan.
“Christmas is the time of faith, hope, and above all, love. A love that inspires us to excel in our craft and deliver exceptional experiences to our guests.

As the lights flickered to life, their glow carried the soft tune of rondalla. The music danced in the cool December air, perfect for the vibrancy of the season set with the tranquil beauty of the hotel’s natural surroundings. Adding flair to the festivities were the Don Bosco Choir, performing refurbished renditions of classic carols, leaving guests awe-struck.
As nights sparkle brighter at One Tectona Hotel, it magnified the essence of oneness for particularly gathering some of the hallmarks of its continued growth, including Duros Group Chairman Rafaelito Barino, Duros Group President Fe Barino, Duros Land VP for Admin and Finance Rhea Mantuha-Andales, Duros Group Board of Directors, Duros Hotels Managing Director Adie Gallares, and DOT Region 7 Director Judy Gabato.
