We based ourselves in General Luna, which is the main hub. It’s where you’ll find the cafés, bars, and Cloud 9. 

If you’ve got more time, spending a few nights up north is a good way to see quieter beaches.

Some great stays around General Luna are:

• Best hotel: Romantic Beach Villas  

• Best surf resort: Mao Mao surf 

• Best for families and groups: Siargao Island Villas 

• Best luxury: Tropical Temple Siargao Resort
