Hans Van Der Sande: The Visionary Redefining Okada Manila

 Hans Van Der Sande isn’t loud about it, but he is the reason Okada Manila keeps thriving and growing. He came on board in 2021 as Chief Financial Officer, bringing a ton of experience from international banking and finance. Basically, Hans keeps a close watch on the resort’s finances and makes decisions that keep Okada Manila strong and exciting year after year.

Smart Decisions for Steady Growth

He doesn’t just sign off on things without thinking. Hans questions every move, “Is this really the best choice?” That mindset keeps the resort stable and ready to grow when the time’s right. 

Hans works with everyone: hotels, the gaming floors, restaurants, and shops. He is always looking for smart ways to save money, but he still finds ways to invest in new experiences that guests can’t get enough of.

Focusing on Great Guest Experience

He does not run behind the numbers. He actually cares about how guests feel when they’re here. He notices the little things, whether it’s the way the fountains dance, how the food tastes, or how the shows run. His leadership keeps everything moving smoothly, so visitors get that magical Okada Manila vibe.

Caring About the Environment

He’s also big on protecting the environment. Hans pushes for projects that are good for nature and keep the resort sustainable. You see it everywhere: lush greenery around the property, water-saving systems, and community initiatives. He wants Okada Manila to be more than just a place for fun and luxury; it needs to be responsible, too.

Hans studied at Columbia College in Colorado, which gave him the foundation for this job. Since he became CFO, he has overseen a bunch of projects that let the resort grow without losing its charm or sense of safety. With his smart strategies, Okada Manila stays at the top of the list for resorts in the Philippines.

A World of Experience for Guests

The resort itself has several things to entertain the guests. Over 40 restaurants, soothing spas, lively beach clubs, and special spots for kids. Thanks to Hans’s careful planning, Okada Manila is always buzzing with excitement, comfort, and plenty of happy faces.

Silent Force Making a Great Impact

Honestly, Hans Van Der Sande is the quiet hero making it all happen. You might not see him out front, but you definitely feel his influence every time you visit.
