Discovery World Corporation Launches New Hospitality Concept in Siargao
MANILA, Philippines – Discovery World Corporation (DWC), the renowned hotels and resorts developer owned by the Tiu family, has officially begun construction of its innovative hospitality concept, Kip&Kin Siargao. This exciting new project aims to cater to the evolving preferences of modern travelers while contributing to the local economy of Siargao, the famed Surfing Capital of the Philippines.
Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lucky Cloud 9 Resort Inc., and its property management arm, Discovery Hospitality Corporation, DWC broke ground on the project earlier this year. Situated on a 2.6-hectare property in Siargao, Surigao del Norte, the development will occupy approximately 7,000 square meters and feature a unique dual-concept design.
The Kip&Kin Siargao will offer 34 hotel rooms, 48 hostel beds, and retail spaces, providing a versatile range of accommodations to suit different traveler preferences. The remaining area of the property is reserved for future expansion, with plans to add more rooms and retail spaces in subsequent phases.
Designed to appeal to millennials, Gen Z travelers, and families alike, Kip&Kin combines the comfort of hotel stays with the social and budget-friendly appeal of hostels. This innovative approach reflects the changing dynamics of the hospitality industry, where experiences and flexibility are highly valued.
John Tiu Jr., Chairman and CEO of Discovery World, shared his enthusiasm for the project, stating, “Kip&Kin is more than just a place to stay; it’s a lifestyle brand where guests can immerse themselves in the energy of Siargao’s vibrant culture and natural splendor. We are excited to leverage Discovery Hospitality’s expertise to create an experience that captures the essence of Siargao and makes a significant contribution to the local economy.”
The project is slated to open in 2027 and is expected to become a standout destination for both local and international tourists. Beyond Siargao, Discovery World has plans to expand the Kip&Kin brand to other prime locations, including Vanilla Beach in El Nido and San Vicente, Palawan.
As a homegrown Filipino hospitality group, Discovery Hospitality Corporation manages a diverse portfolio of brands, including Discovery Resorts, Primea, Discovery Suites, Kip&Kin, and the Signature Collection. With its latest venture in Siargao, the company continues to solidify its reputation as a leader in innovative and sustainable tourism development in the Philippines.
Stay tuned for more updates as Kip&Kin Siargao takes shape, promising a one-of-a-kind experience that celebrates the beauty and culture of this iconic island destination.
