Warmest welcome of the Island

The owner Tim is very helpful and friendly, as well as his team! The location in the back road makes it quiet but still in the center of Cloud 9 and next to the beach and a lot of restaurants. The guide book Tim wrote was very complete and made you navigate smoothly in Siargao. Highly recommend this accommodation!

Tim is the kind of legend who enhances your faith in travel — and the lodge is pure magic.

Fat Lips Surf Lodge is a gem — cozy, perfectly located, and dripping with surf vibes. But the real soul of this place is Tim, the owner. The lodge itself is spotless, the beds are comfy, and honestly, I’d come back just for Tim’s hospitality. He treats guests like old friends. If you want heart, soul, and a guy who’ll lend you his own board so you don’t miss the swell — book Fat Lips. Forever grateful. 🤙🏄‍♂️

Perfect accomodation, the lodge situated in very quiet place, surraunded by rustic houses, for sure you will hear roosters and dogs but it is much better than hastle road. Two lovely dogs live there - Mia and Tiger, they are so friendly, affectionate, are always in a good mood. The room is spacios, there is everything for comfortable stay and work remotly, the desk and the chair are the best, shared kitchet is avaliable. Tim is an amazing host ans super nice man, please spend time and learn his detailed 72 pages guide from the oficial web, you won't be regret, it really help during stay in Siargao.

I had a lovely stay at Fat Lips Surf Lodge overall. The room was spacious, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a relaxed stay. The hostess was incredibly kind and helpful throughout, which made a big difference and added a very personal touch to the experience. The location is also a great plus—very close to Cloud 9, so perfect if you’re there for surfing or just want to be near one of Siargao’s main spots. Overall, a great place with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, but best suited for those who don’t mind a bit of noise or come prepared for it.

Great, great and great. Thumbs up all round.

Very welcoming and helpful owner. Spotless room and very comfortable . Great location for surfing and away from the hustle and bustle of General Luna. Excellent stay.

Home away from home!

Comfy bed + bed topper, such a bonus. Unli coffee inside the room, and chilling in the balcony with a nice view of beautiful greens hits the spot. Staff are friendly and assertive. Location is best given it’s in a quiet neighborhood but near in the tourism center. Value of money is more than I expected. Definitely a home away from home! Will surely go back.

Nice place to stay in Siargao

It is close to Cloud 9, which can be an advantage for those interested in that area. I found the location to be safe. There are restaurants and laundries nearby. The yard is well-kept, and there is also a shared kitchen that you can use if needed. Bed is very comfortable. Staff is great, very helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The room is spacious, the bed is very comfortable, and the view is pleasant—it feels like being right in the middle of the palm trees. The host is very friendly and gave excellent recommendations. We were also able to rent a scooter directly at the accommodation and even received a very good discounted offer. We spontaneously decided to stay one extra night, which was no problem at all. We can highly recommend this accommodation and would definitely stay here again if we come back to Siargao.

Home far away from home

I wholeheartedly recommend staying at Fat Lips Surf Lodge. I felt incredibly well-taken care of from the very beginning. The crew (Din and Julius) helped organize everything, from airport transfers and SIM card purchases to tour arrangements. The accommodations were very clean and well-maintained. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the desk and office chair made remote work easy. The freshly ground Filipino coffee was a wonderful bonus, perfect for starting the morning. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, yet you’re a five-minute walk from many delicious restaurants. I felt right at home, and Din (as she mentioned at the beginning) was like my best friend during this trip. This place is a hidden gem; I'll be back!

Din and the team were lovely! Had such great hospitality and were always willing and ready to help with whatever we need

The Fat Lips Surf Lodge had the best team helping us with everything we needed. From carrying our bags to and from the lodge and getting our room ready as soon as they could.

Wonderful place. Amazing people! Gorgeous dog Tiger

It was amazing experience in Fat Lips Lodge. Host and staffs was super kind and helful. At the beginning, need to walk littlebit inside of narrow street with baggages, so we had a concern. But, pretty different with our expecting! Inside looks like garden! Calmful, peaceful. My daughter is still looking for Tiger that they have. ^^; Tiger made amazing memories for us. She's so sweet and gentle as well. And the staffs were so good. Always smiled and try to help us. Thanks for giving us great memory. Definitely we will visit again ;)

Beautiful garden propert, quiet & peaceful but close to all the action!

Really quiet neighbourhood and nice beds and air con make it a pleasure for getting a good nights sleep! The lodge is tucked away from the main road but close to Cloud 9 and all the action in General Luna. I also loved the fresh coffee in the rooms and the beach towels and rain ponchos were a nice touch.

Amazing stay in heart of siaragao

Simply everything. The staff, and especially Din Din the manager, were amazing and so helpful. Any request or question we had Din Din was there! In addition , the room was clean, well organised and very modern and aesthetic, a design that really feels like home and not as a Cliché. And last, the location. Located in the centre of all the surfing spots and in very short ride from the bars and restaurants , therefore it central and quiet at the same time.
