Room Recommendation
Which room to book
Beachfront rooms or Superior rooms with sea-facing balconies are the best honeymoon choice — the sunrise over the Pacific from your balcony is Siargao's defining morning image. Garden rooms are quieter and less expensive but miss the sea view that characterises this island's greatest appeal. All rooms are well-maintained and contemporary in style.

Day by Day
Your 7-night honeymoon itinerary
Arrival & Island Introduction
Fly from Manila or Cebu to Siargao's Sayak Airport (approximately 2 hours from Manila). The resort's tricycle meets you for the 30-minute ride through coconut plantation to the beachfront. Check in to the sound of Pacific surf, and spend the late afternoon on the beach. The resort restaurant's kinilaw (Filipino-style ceviche) using the day's freshest catch is the right first meal on Siargao.
Cloud 9 Surfing
Cloud 9 — the famous hollow right-hander that put Siargao on the world surfing map — is 20 minutes from the resort by tricycle. Even if neither of you surfs, watching experienced surfers drop into the barrelling waves from the iconic bamboo boardwalk is a thrilling spectacle. The resort arranges surfing lessons for beginners; instructors are patient and Siargao's gentle reef sections are excellent for learning.
Naked Island, Daku Island & Guyam Island
Siargao's signature island-hopping tour visits three contrasting islands in one day: Naked Island (a pure white sandbar with no shade at all), Daku (a larger, coconut-fringed island with a beach volleyball court and lunch), and Guyam (a tiny palm-topped islet perfect for romantic walking). The speedboat connects all three in a full day of swimming, snorkeling, and complete relaxation.
Spa Day & Sugba Lagoon
Morning spa treatment at Siargao Bleu — the Filipino Hilot massage uses traditional herbal oil techniques passed down through generations of healers. Afternoon: arrange the resort's excursion to Sugba Lagoon in the Del Carmen area — a vast emerald lagoon of clear water surrounded by mangrove forest, with a rope swing, floating raft, and complete tranquillity. One of Siargao's best-kept secrets.
General Luna Village & Food Tour
General Luna town, just minutes from the resort, has evolved into one of the Philippines' most charming beach village dining scenes — acai bowl cafes, craft cocktail bars, fresh fish restaurants, and local coffee roasters all within walking distance of each other. A morning food tour on rented motorbike is the best way to explore: coconut coffee at Kermit, kinilaw at Bravo, halo-halo on the main street.
Mangrove Kayaking & Magpupungko Rock Pools
Kayak through the extraordinary mangrove channels of Siargao's interior — the stilted-root tunnels and bird life create a surreal, intimate environment. Continue to Magpupungko Natural Rock Pools in Pilar: dramatic tidal pools in volcanic rock formations, swimmable at low tide. Time your visit for low tide (check schedules with the hotel) when the pools reveal their most spectacular depth and clarity.
Farewell Morning
Siargao's last morning: sunrise on the beachfront with a strong coffee and the Pacific stretching to the horizon. Breakfast at the resort restaurant — fresh papaya, fried rice, and eggs. The tricycle to Sayak Airport passes through the coconut groves and rice paddies that give Siargao its unhurried character. It is an island that rewards slow travel and punishes rushing — stay as long as you possibly can.
Honest Assessment
What to know before you book
Siargao Bleu is a well-maintained four-star resort but not a luxury property — expectations should be calibrated accordingly. Rooms and amenities are comfortable and clean, but the finishes and service level do not match the five-star resorts elsewhere in this guide. The setting and island itself compensate generously.
Siargao was significantly affected by Typhoon Odette in December 2021 — while the island and most resorts have largely rebuilt, some natural areas and facilities took time to recover. Check current conditions before booking.
Peak surfing season at Cloud 9 is September to November when conditions are most powerful. For non-surfers or beginners, March to May offers lighter swells and calmer conditions for all water activities.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is Siargao Bleu good for honeymooners?
A good choice for adventurous, outdoors-oriented couples who prefer island character and natural beauty over formal luxury. The beachfront setting, the world-famous surfing, Siargao's coconut-grove landscape, and the excellent island-hopping day trips create a genuinely romantic and active honeymoon. Couples prioritising plush finishes and elevated service will be better served by Nay Palad or Dedon Island on the same island.
What is the best time to visit?
March to May is the calmest and sunniest period for Siargao — ideal for snorkeling, island-hopping, and learning to surf. September to November brings the biggest surf swells (best for experienced surfers) but also increases typhoon risk. Avoid December to February as conditions can be variable with occasional cold fronts.
What should we book in advance?
Island-hopping speedboats should be arranged through the hotel one day ahead — they fill up in peak season. For Cloud 9 surf lessons, the resort's concierge can book with a certified surf school. The Sugba Lagoon tour is best arranged the evening before to secure a boat.
Is it adults-only?
No, Siargao Bleu accommodates families. The island itself has a young, mixed traveller demographic that includes couples, surfers, and increasingly families. The resort is not exclusively romantic in atmosphere but provides comfortable and sufficiently private accommodation for honeymooners.
What's the best room for a honeymoon?
Beachfront Superior rooms facing the ocean — the sunrise and the sea views from a private balcony are the island's most romantic morning. Request upper floor for the best views and the least beach-traffic noise. Garden rooms are pleasant alternatives if sea-view rooms are unavailable.
How do we get there?
Fly from Manila (MNL) to Sayak Airport, Siargao (IAO) — approximately 2 hours, operated by Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, and AirAsia. Alternatively, fly to Surigao City on Mindanao and take a 2-hour ferry crossing to Siargao. From Sayak Airport, tricycle or van transfer to General Luna takes approximately 30 minutes.
