INTRODUCTION
G. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The study uses descriptive research which aims to describe
the data and its characteristics. This type of research method
includes the process of analyzing the flow and concept of the
study and finding the solution to the problems.
The process begins by considering the location of the
project and what should be considered and to be followed as it
will accommodate a lot of tourists around the Philippines or it
can be around the world. This was then being followed with the
collection of data with relevance to the study before coming up
with analysis to develop the objectives of the proposed study.
Each process requires references from obtainable sources related
to the subject matter of scheme. Thus, careful review of the
data gathered will be conducted in order to give accurate
information. The outcome will provide solutions and
rationalizations to the design concepts of the proposal.
RELATED LITERATURE
1.1 BEACH RESORTS
Medlik and Ingram defined hotels as a business that caters to
services such as accommodation, food and drinks for guests or
temporary residents who wish to stay at the hotel. Since hotels are in
the service sector, they should emphasize on improving the service
quality to stay relevant and competitive in the business industry . It
is claimed that customer’s loyalty and satisfaction is enable to be
retained and increased by firms concentrating on delivering best
service that they are able to give to the customers. Smith stated that
with rapid increase of tourism in Southeast Asia, incoming individual
hotel and beach resort projects were given careful attention in their
planning and design stages. Integrated resorts were given attention as
early as in the 1970s. Investigations on beach resorts were mainly on
North American and British soil and only minor studies were carried
out focusing on Mediterranean and Middle East regions whereby the
latter had prospered even better than the British resorts. The
coastline has been an attraction for tourists and it is vital for a
country to manage its beaches in a sustainable way. Attractive sandy
beaches plus other natural elements associated with the coastline
resulting in worldwide development of beach resorts. Beach resort is
defined as individual or more than one tourist lodgings that are
location wise beach-fronted irrespective of the accommodation’s
quality. According to Mahathir , development of beach resorts may lead
to a country generating a larger foreign exchange earnings and this
can be possible through the tourism industry’s growth. This can also
be led by the desire to improve the conditions or well-beings of its
citizens through increase employment opportunities and better income
generation. According to Pine and Philips , it is important to have
high quality management for a developing hotel sector, in order to
offer best quality services that would lead to customer satisfaction.
Thus, proper strategies and management of the performance must be
maintained by these resorts.
1.4 ECO-TOURISTS
Eco-tourists are defined by (TIES) “are also seeking to minimize the
carbon footprint of their travel, traveling with climate in mind by
planning wisely and 35 choosing consciously” (TIES, 2018). This
tourist group is very different from a normal tourist. Almost everyone
is a tourist, but the Eco-tourist like to go to more environmentally
friendly areas of interest, place that have more to do with nature and
the environment. They like to go to a resort the is more sustainable,
where they can go enjoy the wilderness, and have local workers that
are employed that are on the same page about the environment. This
style of resort can be known as an “Eco Resort”. A good example of a
tourist that falls closely to an Eco-tourist in the Adirondacks is one
that goes camping. It is stated that tourist are not going to be
wanting to go to the warm and sunny resort and that they are wanting
to go to a more environmental place with nature, this is shown in
(Hana, 1995) “Tourism research demonstrates that sunshine and pleasant
resort are ceasing to be primary motivations for international leisure
travel and are no longer likely to be significant factors in the
tourists’ choice of foreign destination – be it in sub-Saharan Africa
or the South Pacific (Ankomah and Crompton, 1990; King, 1992). A Japan
Travel Bureau survey confirmed that this new trend applies even to
Japanese travelers, who used to equate resort vacations with sun and
sand; 70% of the respondents indicated that enjoyment of nature and
scenery is now their top priority in going abroad (Owens, 1994)”.
1.5 ECO-RESORT
Eco-resort is a resort that has very little impact on the
environment. It is defined by Eco-Resorts that “Eco-Resorts supports
the earth-one journey at a time. Regionally, we promote small, unique
East African camps and lodges, which are involved in assisting their
local communities and protecting their local environments. Locally,
our Kenyan offices are completely self-sufficient. We generate our own
power using a wind turbine and solar panels; we also collect
rainwater. Booking with Eco-resorts protects East Africa’s environment
and local cultures from extinction” (Eco Resorts, 2017). A subcategory
of and Eco-resort would be an Eco-lodge. These two are very similar,
but the Eco-lodge is in more of in a secluded area in the environment.
For example, this would be in the Adirondack park is a heavy forested
area. One thing about Eco-lodges is that they depend more on the
environment. They are also into nature and wildlife, being able to
educate the tourists that come to visit. It is stated that “The best
Eco-lodges also work to ensure positive relationships with the local
people. They train and employ them at fair wages, take part in
community development initiatives, offer activities that help visitors
conserve and appreciate local customs, and contribute to the local
economy”
CONCLUSION:
The process of building a beach resort is not easy. There are a
lot of considerations to be followed. You have to invest money, time
and of course to research. It is always important to know how your
plans to build a resort will compete from local, national to
international resort. You have to be wise in making decisions so that
environment will not suffer. You don’t build a resort just to earn
money, you build a resort to invite tourists, to make your place known
to the world.

Balesin Island is situated within Lamon Bay and has a land area of 4.24
square kilometers (1.64 sq mi). It is administered as part of the
municipality of Polillo of Quezon province.
Design Concept:
PLANS:
Architect:
Chinmay Mehta
Location:
Jaipur,Tonk
Area:
18 Acres
Year:
Phase 1: 1992 & Phase 2: 1995
Site Analysis:
Site covers an area of 18 acres of
Which 5 acre land is earmarked for
Future projects. It has been divided
into two parts: the first is meant
for the resort(for the tourist to stay)
while the other caters to the needs of
day-to-day visitors.
The Project was conceived by Prof Chinmay Mehta, an artist-
designer and also the dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts at the
University of Rajasthan, Jaipur. He made three dimensional
sketches in lieu of the architectural drawings, plans, etc, to
visualize the idea.
In the Resorts, the hut roofs are sloping with cement concrete
RCC work covered with terracotta tiles or thatch. The hut
structures are provided with windows and door at times with
aaliyas covered with built in spaces for deepaks ( Terracotta
Lamps) in different shapes. The walls are decorated with relief
murals , created with brick motifs and relief work designed with
thick cement plaster in tempera, mainly with clay colours-geru
(indian red), ochre and shaped white clay. The layout design has
village temples , devaras, brick jalis and wooden enclosures.
Bamboos have been used extensively to integrate one structure
with another thus creating harmony. The architects have utilized
local materialsand manpower for the construction.
Architect:
Francisco Mañosa
Location:
Archipelago, Pamalican Island,
Cuyo, 5318 Palawan
Owner:
Aman Resorts
Year:
1993
The resort has villas and casitas for visitors, each with its own
buggy for travel on the island.
Each villa features a private swimming pool and offers separate
bedroom, living and dining pavilions, an outdoor lounge and a
kitchen. One, two and four bedroom villas are available.
A private island fringed by
white sand beaches, the
resort offers a back to
nature experience in supreme
comfort and privacy. Casitas
are built into the verdant
forest canopy, perched on the
hillside or set along the
6.5km beach, while each of
the private Villas has its
own beachfront.
The calm, clear seas are ideal for kite surfing, while divers
can explore the coral reef, teeming with marine life just 300
metres offshore.
Design Approach:
The people of these 40 islands traditionally
live mostly by fishing and seaweed cultivation,
as tourism has scarcely touched the islands.
In the late 80s a AMAN founder and visionary
Adrian Zecha partnered with the owners of the
island to develop it into an exclusive resort.
Design Concept:
Designed by renowned Filipino architect
Bobby Manosa with inspiration from
traditional Filipino dwellings and
culture, this resort opened its doors
in 1993.

“Simplicity — A Thoughtful
Approach To Better Design”
- Ivy Eisenberg-
Our goal is simple objects, objects that you can’t imagine any
other way. Simplicity is not the absence of clutter. Get it
right, and you become closer and more focused on the object
DESIGN CONCEPT
As what the philosophy suggests, the proponents will adhere
to the simplicity of the Proposed Beach Reosrt Complex that will
imply the Green Building goals and requirements. It is
envisioned to attract the eyes of all the people visiting the
Beach Resort because of its natural and simple look. The Design
will only focus on four colors. Green colors will be seen from
manmade plantation, gray colors will be present for concrete
materials, tinted light blue colors for windows and brown colors
for variety of woods that will be used. The design concept of
the proposed Beach Resort Complex aims to provide guests with
relaxation that is why the proposal comes up with the Green
Building.
