Lind Hotels expands Philippines

The Lind Hotels is expanding beyond Boracay, with new resorts now listed in Coron and Siargao on the company’s website. (thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com) The company’s flagship remains The Lind Boracay at Station 1, White Beach in Malay, Aklan, where its site says the property has 119 rooms and suites. The MICHELIN Guide lists The Lind Boracay in its hotel selection and describes it as a beachfront property on one of Station 1’s prime stretches. (thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com, guide.michelin.com) The new destination pages are still thin on hard details. The Coron page is tagged “A Tropical Haven with Contemporary Comforts,” while the Siargao page says “Making Waves in 2026” and “A Taste of Relaxation and Coastal Adventures,” language that points to pipeline projects rather than fully opened resorts. (thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com) The timing lines up with a broader push by the brand to lean harder into food and brand identity. In a February 2, 2026 press post, The Lind announced Yìm, a Thai restaurant in Boracay, and framed the group around “crafting experiences” as it marked a new phase for the company. (thelindhotels.com) MICHELIN’s hotel listing does not award The Lind Boracay a MICHELIN Key in the material surfaced here, but it does place the property inside the guide’s global hotel selection. MICHELIN says its Keys are the hotel equivalent of Stars for restaurants, a distinction that has become a marketing tool for luxury properties competing on design, service and dining. (guide.michelin.com, guide.michelin.com) That matters in the Philippines, where resort operators are chasing travelers who increasingly book around a destination’s food scene as much as its beach. The Department of Tourism’s public-facing sites continue to market the country on both scenery and “unique gastronomic experience,” showing how cuisine has moved into the center of destination branding. (tourism.gov.ph, tourism.gov.ph) Coron and Siargao fit that strategy for different reasons. Coron is one of Palawan’s best-known island gateways, while Siargao has grown from a surf outpost into one of the country’s most recognizable leisure brands; both give The Lind a way to sell distinct experiences under one upscale banner. (thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com, tourism.gov.ph) The company has not publicly posted opening dates, room counts or investment figures for the two new resorts in the material reviewed here. For now, the clearest signal is the map itself: Boracay built the name, and Coron and Siargao are where The Lind is trying to scale it next. (thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com, thelindhotels.com)
