A few of the listed facilities had a groundbreaking in mid 2009, while others are set to open beginning 2010 – 2014.

    Durano likewise noted the strong diversity of these investments, which have been classified into Accommodations, Resorts, Medical Tourism facilities, Sports and Recreational facilities and Agri-tourism facilities.
