Nay Palad Hideaway

Name: Nay Palad Hideaway
Address: Philippines

Design-led villas between mangroves and the Pacific Ocean

Open-air living and oceanfront life on a secluded stretch of Siargao coastline

Set beside a private bay in Malinao, Philippines, Nay Palad Hideaway is a luxury resort in Siargao that blends into the island’s landscapes: coconut palms, mangrove channels, silky white sand and the rolling surf of the Pacific Ocean. The architecture draws heavily on traditional Filipino building styles, using local hardwoods, rattan, bamboo and hand-finished details by Filipino artisans. Pathways cut through tropical greenery down to the beach, while the resort’s breezy lounges and low-slung pavilions keep the sea constantly in view from room and terrace.

Accommodation includes a small collection of private villas, among them the Ocean View Villa, Garden View Villa, Perlah Villa and Coral Villa. Each combines indoor and outdoor space, with large daybeds, open bathrooms, private pools or garden courtyards. Multi-bedroom layouts and beach access make this the perfect spot for a family holiday, while the more secluded villas are tucked deeper into the gardens. Throughout Nay Palad Hideaway, the emphasis is on natural textiles, flowing air and the choice to linger in a cooling dip or laze around after a swim.

The ocean is central to the experience at Nay Palad Hideaway. You can go on a kayak adventure through the surrounding mangrove forest, where you might spot wild giant mud crabs or the rare Philippine duck, or head to the nearby Cloud 9 break to take a surfing lesson. You can take yoga classes beside the sea or have an open-air massage made more relaxing by the sound of waves. Social time includes beach bonfires and an outdoor cinema beneath the palms, and you can opt to dine either at the beachfront or in the garden, with menus focused on tropical produce, grilled seafood and Filipino dishes prepared with local ingredients.

Places to combine Nay Palad Hideaway with

Philippines

Amanpulo

On its own private island in the Cuyo Archipelago reachable only by plane, the Amanpulo is a whisper-quiet retreat for those truly seeking to escape it all.

Seven expansive pool villas and 42 casitas sit either by the alabaster white sand beach or tucked away in the hills and treetops of the island, with magnificent views out to sea or enjoying seclusion amid the canopy.

From sailing on one the fleet of boats to scuba diving on a pristine coral reef, windsurfing or simply frolicking in the water, Amanpulo offers an abundance of aquatic activities to suit everyone. Back on land, play tennis, borrow bicycles for a little exploration or head out on nature walks, which take in the lush indigenous plants as well as the dozens of bird species and the nesting sites of sea turtles.

Unwind with classes at the yoga and meditation studio and indulge at the spa or simply kick back at the floating bar, cocktail in hand, as schools of vibrant fish swim by.

Fresh caught seafood and island-grown organic vegetables and herbs make for a wonderful menu served across venues from the Clubhouse Restaurant and Beach Club to private salas and beach barbecues.
