Loboc River Resort’s Story

Embracing Sustainability and Wildlife: Loboc River Resort’s Journey to Harmony

Nestled within the lush landscapes of Bohol, Loboc River Resort presents an exemplary model of sustainable tourism and environmental stewardship. Spanning 14 hectares, yet thoughtfully limiting its development to just 3 hectares, this sanctuary prioritizes the preservation of its natural surroundings, a testament to the resort owner’s vision that not all business endeavors needs to compromise nature’s integrity.

Loboc River Resort operates in harmony with its environment, incorporating solar energy to reduce its carbon footprint. This sustainable approach extends to its meticulous planning around the existing natural surroundings, ensuring minimal disruption. The resort is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, offering a glimpse into the lives of over a thousand wild ducks, numerous bird species including the Olive-backed Sunbird and the Philippine Hanging Parrot, and even a monkey sanctuary dubbed “Monkey Island.”

The proximity of the resort to Tagbilaran City, a mere 30-minute journey, offers convenience without sacrificing the tranquility of its natural setting. Guests are immersed in a vibrant ecosystem where wild birds, ducks, fishes, monkeys, and even carabaos coexist freely, far from the confines of captivity.

Established in 2010 on the foundation of a fishpond, the resort has grown into a refuge for both people and wildlife. Initially featuring 12 cottages and a lake teeming with wild ducks, it has since expanded to 35 accommodations with a keen focus on sustainability. The strategic development plan, including cautious nipa harvesting and constructing around big trees rather than removing them, ensures that nature not only remains but thrives.

In its dedication to sustainability and the protection of Bohol’s natural charm, Loboc River Resort embodies a mentality of ecological responsibility and conservation.

Its unique approach to blending tourism with nature conservation promises a future where both can flourish in harmony.
