Las Palmas: Your island home, elevated
A boutique escape in Siargao blending Filipino warmth, Balinese charm, and island ease
Siargao has become a favorite for both locals and international travelers, thanks to its secret lagoons, white-sand beaches, and water sports. But beyond the thrill of the day and the buzz of Siargao’s nightlife lies a quiet escape that offers the best of both worlds: Las Palmas Villas and Casitas.
Tucked in the heart of General Luna along Tourism Road, Las Palmas is a 12-room boutique resort built with intention, heart, and family at its core. The name “Las Palmas” is inspired by Isla de las Palmas, the name given to Siargao by Spanish explorers in 1953, a nod to the island’s sea of coconut palms.
The resort was founded by Lui and Hazel Alvarez, a couple from Cebu who fell in love with the island and brought their vision to life alongside their children, Anton and Isabella. Together, they’ve created a sanctuary that blends Balinese elegance with Filipino warmth, using local materials and thoughtful design to create spaces that feel both luxurious and grounded.
Las Palmas offers a mix of accommodations to suit every kind of traveler whether standalone casitas for a private villa feel, queen and twin deluxe rooms for couples or friends, and spacious family rooms that sleep up to six. Each room includes plush beds, a coffee machine, heated showers, and an entertainment system with streaming apps and Bluetooth speakers.
At the center of the property is a lush pool area, perfect for unwinding after a day out. Their in-house restaurant, open daily from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., serves a mix of Filipino, Spanish, and Western dishes ideal for a slow breakfast or sunset cocktails. Happy hour kicks off daily, with drinks starting at just P100.
Las Palmas also offers airport pickups, island transfers in their iconic combi van, and in-room massages for ultimate relaxation. And when you’re ready to explore again, local gyms, bars, cafes, and boutiques are just minutes away.
The heart of Las Palmas, though, is its service. Led by the ever-welcoming Kim at the front desk, the team goes above and beyond to make guests feel at home whether that means planning your island itinerary or just pointing you to the best hidden gem in town.
Let’s just say, you don’t just stay, you experience island living, elevated.
