At Patuyo Island, we are more than just a destination

we are a family dedicated to preserving the island’s natural beauty, cultural heritage, and sustainable way of life.

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission is to create an unspoiled and unique island experience by sustainably managing local resources and promoting the island’s rich heritage. We collaborate closely with local communities, promoting their goods and craftsmanship through educational workshops and conservation activities for both tourists and islanders. Our vision is to be an eco-friendly and socially responsible destination that fosters self-reliance among locals and encourages simple, sustainable living.

A commitment to sustainability

Patuyo Island is not a resort; it is an ecotourism destination deeply rooted in social responsibility and sustainable living. Here, luxury is found in simplicity. Our shelters, constructed by local artisans using natural materials, offer a rustic yet comfortable stay. With no power lines or running freshwater sources, we embrace a back-to-basics mentality, encouraging visitors to disconnect from the modern world and reconnect with nature.

What makes us unique

  • Authentic Island Living:

    Experience life as it has been lived on the island for generations. Our native bungalows are crafted from locally sourced materials, providing an authentic and sustainable living experience.

  • Community Engagement:

    Engage with local artisans, participate in traditional crafts, and learn about the island’s culture and history through our community-focused activities.

  • Eco-Friendly Practices:

    From solar power initiatives to rainwater harvesting, we are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint and promoting sustainable practices.

  • Cultural Preservation:

    We work closely with local communities to preserve and celebrate the island’s cultural heritage, ensuring that traditional knowledge and skills are passed down to future generations.
