Ixora brachyantha also have large leaves and wide petals. Another species to consider.

Thanks Kunzah and Chun for the ID. Was a bit tough to find info on it but one that I found looks to be the closest match.

Maybe Ixora lobbii? - large leaves, usually grow on river banks, can reach 2 meters tall.
