Driving integrated excellence: Shiji Daylight PMS enhances Manila's premier integrated resort experience

Manila, Philippines — Shiji, the global leader in hospitality technology, announced today that New Coast Hotel Manila (part of LaVie Resort and Casino), one of Manila’s luxury integrated resorts, expands its capabilities with Shiji’s Daylight PMS. This marks a landmark achievement in the region’s hotel technology landscape and follows LaVie’s earlier rollout of Shiji’s Infrasys POS on April 1, 2025. Together, both systems form a unified digital foundation that supports LaVie’s commitment to exceptional service, operational efficiency, and a simplified, single-vendor technology strategy.

New Coast Hotel Manila, part of LaVie Resort and Casino, set out to eliminate system fragmentation and streamline operations across its extensive amenities, diverse dining venues, event spaces, and guest services. With Infrasys POS already powering all F&B outlets, LaVie sought a property management system that could seamlessly integrate with existing operations while elevating the guest journey from arrival to departure. Daylight PMS designed around a unified guest profile and built with industry-leading security and privacy, aligned precisely with the resort’s vision for a modern, simplified operation.

The future of hospitality lies in connected operations and unified guest experiences. For integrated resorts, success depends on the ability to bring together multiple departments, venues, and services under a single technology ecosystem. LaVie's continued investment in Shiji demonstrates how leading hospitality brands are moving beyond standalone systems toward platforms that create greater efficiency, stronger guest engagement, and better business outcomes. We are excited to see the Philippines continue to lead the way in adopting next-generation hospitality technology.

We are thrilled to see LaVie Resort and Casino lead the Philippine market with Daylight PMS. The mission to unify all hotel systems under a single vendor mirrors the exact purpose of Daylight: bringing every department closer together so teams can focus on guests instead of navigating disconnected tools. Daylight PMS not only strengthens operational agility but also sets a new benchmark for secure, guest-centric hospitality technology in the region.

By adopting Daylight PMS, LaVie gains access to advanced guest profile intelligence, a micro-service architecture for flexible integrations, and an event-driven platform that accelerates workflows, critical for a high-volume luxury environment. Combined with the already-live Infrasys POS system that supports restaurants, bars, poolside venues, room service, and more, the integrated resort now delivers consistent, efficient service across every guest touchpoint.

“At LaVie Resort and Casino, we are committed to providing memorable, refined, and seamless experiences for every guest,” added Mr. Bokingkito, Jr. “Shiji has given us exactly what we were looking for: a single partner who could support our operations and help us streamline the way we work. With Daylight PMS and Infrasys POS working together, our teams can focus more on delivering warm hospitality and less on managing complex systems.”

With its expansive accommodations, premium amenities, wellness facilities, and vibrant entertainment offerings, LaVie Resort and Casino is entering a new era of digital capability. The successful go-live of Daylight PMS places the resort at the forefront of technology-driven hospitality in the Philippines and reinforces the role of unified cloud solutions in shaping modern luxury.
