TRYP by Wyndham Samal: A World-Class Condotel Coming Soon to Samal Island

A new era of hospitality is set to rise in the Island Garden City of Samal as Damosa Land Inc. and PHINMA Microtel Hotels, Inc. team up to bring TRYP by Wyndham Samal, the island’s first internationally recognized hotel brand.

According to Damosa Land President Ricardo F. Lagdameo, development of the condotel will begin within the next two years, with units expected to be offered to the market as early as this year. The 4-star property will feature around 100 rooms, catering to both the mid- and luxury markets — marking a major step forward in transforming Samal into a premier tourism and investment destination.

Scheduled for completion by 2027 or 2028, the project’s timing aligns perfectly with the highly anticipated Davao-Samal Bridge, which is expected to boost tourism and accessibility to the island. Once operational, TRYP by Wyndham Samal will provide thoughtfully designed accommodations, contemporary amenities, and a modern beachfront lifestyle experience ideal for both leisure and business travelers.

As highlighted by Lagdameo, this joint venture with PHINMA Microtel Hotels aims not just to elevate the travel experience but also to stimulate local economic growth—supporting small enterprises, creating jobs, and attracting global attention to Samal’s pristine natural beauty.

TRYP by Wyndham Samal will serve as a catalyst for sustainable tourism development, setting new standards for comfort, design, and service in Mindanao. With this project, Damosa Land and PHINMA Microtel continue their shared vision of building purposeful and future-ready destinations that contribute to regional progress while celebrating local culture and community.

Samal Island is, without a doubt, on its way to becoming one of the most sought-after tourist spots in the Philippines—and TRYP by Wyndham is leading the way.
