About Us

Our Story

From The Spark of El Nido to a Diverse Global Enterprise

The journey of The Birdhouse began with a dream to create an oasis that blended luxury with nature's untamed beauty. Inspired by the enchanting landscapes of El Nido, we envisioned a retreat that not only offered an escape but also a harmonious connection with the environment.

At El Nido, our first location, we captured the essence of sustainable luxury. Nestled amidst lush greenery, overlooking crystal-clear waters, The Birdhouse El Nido became more than just a destination; it became a sanctuary for those seeking solace in nature's embrace.

Our origin story is rooted in a deep respect for the environment and local communities. This philosophy drove us to adopt eco-friendly practices, from the construction of our glamping sites to the operations of our renowned restaurant, The Nesting Table.
