Our Story & Values

A Dream Rooted in Paradise

Mango Tree Siargao began as a shared dream between two close friends, both captivated by the allure of untouched islands and the promise of creating something meaningful. When we first set foot on Siargao, we were instantly embraced by the island’s raw beauty and the warmth of its people. The Filipino values of kindness, resilience, and community spirit resonated deeply with us, inspiring the vision of a sanctuary where luxury coexists harmoniously with nature.

However, our journey was not without challenges. In December 2021, Super Typhoon Odette (Typhoon Rai) made landfall on Siargao, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake. The island, including our retreat, suffered immense damage. But in the face of adversity, the indomitable spirit of the Siargao community shone brightly. Together, we rebuilt, drawing strength from the very values that had first drawn us here. Today, Mango Tree Siargao stands as a testament to resilience, love, and the enduring beauty of dreams realised.

Embracing Sustainability: Living in Harmony with Nature

At Mango Tree Siargao, our commitment to the environment is unwavering. We believe that true luxury is sustainable and respectful of its surroundings. Our villas are powered by solar energy, ensuring a minimal carbon footprint. Rainwater is thoughtfully harvested and treated, providing a sustainable water source for our guests. The lush gardens that envelop our retreat are nurtured with native flora, promoting biodiversity and preserving the island’s natural charm. Every design choice, from the materials we use to the systems we implement, reflects our dedication to eco-conscious living
