Floirendoled Damosa Land Inc. expects to generate ₱1.2 billion in total sales from its TRYP by Wyndham Samal project, a four-star condotel rising in the island garden city of Samal in 2028.

- By JAMES A. LOYOLA

The project, Damosa Land's latest venture with PHINMA Microtel Hotels Inc., will feature about 100 rooms with prices ranging from ₱10 million to ₱20 million per unit.

It will cater to the midand luxury markets and is slated for completion by 2027 or 2028, just in time for the completion of Davao-Samal Bridge, which is expected to increase access to Samal Island by tourists.

Damosa Land said TRYP by Wyndham Samal introduces the first globally recognized hotel brand to Samal Island-set to become the next big tourist destination in the Philippines.
