THE STORY OF LEOPALACE RESORT
Lush jungle forests. Peaceful, serene plains. Sparkling aqua blue water lapping the shores. Beautiful cities of coral hugging the reef. The Chamorros, a friendly native people to barter with a crew in need of fresh food and water in order to survive their journey. All these met Ferdinand Magellan on the 6th of March 1521 when he encountered the tropical island of Guam in the western Pacific as he was sailing around the globe under the flag of King Charles I of Spain.
After meeting the Chamorros that first night in Guam, Magellan dreamt of a mighty and powerful leopard emerging from the jungle to lead his crew safely through the rest of their expedition. The leopard, symbol of perseverance and bravery, followed Magellan and crew as they sailed away from the most beautiful island they had ever seen. Before embarking, Magellan left behind Gold Spanish coins as a token of his deep gratitude for the help of Guam's native people.
