Tired of tourist traps, overpriced menus, and resorts that feel impersonal?

Welcome to Prana Siargao โ€” a peaceful wellness retreat quietly tucked in General Luna, Siargao Island. Here, youโ€™ll find more than just a resort. Youโ€™ll discover plant-based food that delights, yoga that grounds you, bungalows that soothe your senses, and a team that genuinely makes you feel at home.

This isnโ€™t your typical resort built for Instagram. While it can be, it’s a space created for intention, rest, and reconnection.

Letโ€™s take a deep dive into what makes Prana Siargao one of the best-kept secrets in the Philippines โ€” and why it might be the soul-reset you didnโ€™t know you needed.


Why Prana Siargao is Exactly What Youโ€™re Looking For

Inside Prana Siargao's Facility

In a destination like Siargao โ€” known for world-class surf and vibrant nightlife โ€” itโ€™s rare to find a place designed for stillness. Prana Siargao offers something different.

Instead of crowds, youโ€™ll find quiet. Instead of performance, youโ€™ll find presence.

This resort is made for:

  • People wanting to take a break from crowded resorts
  • Couples looking for peace and intimacy
  • Travelers who wants to improve wellness
  • Foodies who wants to experience heaven on a plate just for a cheap price

Here, everything is deliberate โ€” the location, the layout, the food, the energy. Itโ€™s not just a stay, itโ€™s a state of mind.


What Makes Prana Siargao Stand Out

Hereโ€™s a breakdown of what separates Prana from the typical Siargao resort experience:

FeatureDescription
LocationPeaceful, slightly hidden (“sudlonon”) spot in General Luna
CuisineOffers a wide range of foods,  rooted in Filipino flavors
DesignMinimalist meets tropical: wood, rattan, lush surroundings
Wellness OfferingsAshtanga Yoga, Vinyasi Yoga
Price PointAffordable luxury (โ‚ฑ3,000โ€“โ‚ฑ5,500 per night)
Target GuestsSolo travelers, couples, creatives, digital nomads
ParkingSpacious โ€” yes, even for tuktuks or motorbikes

โ€œItโ€™s not just about beautiful rooms or good food โ€” itโ€™s about how the place makes you feel.โ€


Getting There: A Worthwhile Ride Off the Beaten Path

Locals would describe the resortโ€™s location as “sudlonon” โ€” tucked in, a little remote, and yes, the road is narrow and quite bumpy. But this short journey off the main road adds to its charm. It filters out the noise, the crowds, the chaos.

Despite being hidden, Prana is still close to General Lunaโ€™s town proper, beaches, and cafes. Most guests arrive via:

  • Tuktuks or scooters (both have space to park)
  • Vans from Sayak Airport (about 45 minutes away)

Pro Tip:

Use Google Maps or ask locals โ€” signage is subtle and discreet, keeping the low-key vibe intact.


Accommodations: Where Design Meets Serenity

Wellness: More Than Just Yoga

Prana is built around the belief that wellness is holistic. Itโ€™s not just about movement โ€” itโ€™s about mental clarity, emotional grounding, and energetic healing.

Wellness Features:

  • Daily yoga classes in an open-air pavilion
  • Cacao and breathwork ceremonies led by trained facilitators
  • A serene infinity pool surrounded by palm trees
  • Bicycle rentals for gentle exploration of General Luna

Everything is optional, nothing is rigid. You can join a sunrise session, then spend the day reading by the pool. Or journal after breathwork. This is a choose-your-own-peace kind of place.
