The Farm at San Benito has officially joined Autograph
Collection Hotels, part of the global Marriott Bonvoy portfolio, bringing the
brand to the Philippines for the first time. Set on 52 hectares of tropical
landscape in Lipa, Batangas, the resort is internationally recognised for its
integrative, evidence-based approach to wellness.
For more than two decades, The Farm has attracted
guests seeking medically guided detox, recovery and lifestyle transformation.
Its programmes are delivered by internationally trained doctors, therapists and
nutritionists, combining modern diagnostics with holistic healing traditions.
Wellness-focused hospitality with a strong identity
“The Farm at San Benito reflects the Autograph
Collection’s focus on individuality and meaningful experiences,” said Duke Nam,
Regional Vice President for Korea, Vietnam and the Philippines at Marriott
International, highlighting the resort’s nature-led design and structured
wellness programmes.
The property features 70 spacious villas and suites,
designed for privacy and tranquillity, alongside five dining venues centred on
plant-forward, health-conscious cuisine, much of it sourced from the resort’s
own organic gardens.
Integrated programmes and expert-led care
Four core wellness journeys form the backbone of the
offering, ranging from metabolic health to resilience and recovery,
complemented by fully personalised programmes developed by a multidisciplinary
medical team. Facilities include an integrative medical centre, hydrotherapy
pools, spa and mindful living spaces, as well as outdoor areas designed for
reflection and movement.
A long-established retreat joins a global network
Founded in 2002, The Farm has built a global
reputation as a destination for long-term health improvement and preventive
care. Its inclusion in the Autograph Collection connects the retreat to
Marriott Bonvoy’s worldwide network, allowing guests to earn and redeem loyalty
points while accessing one of Southeast Asia’s most established wellness
destinations.
Giuliano Callegaro, General Manager of The Farm at San
Benito, described the move as a natural evolution, bringing together
personalised care, expert guidance and a setting designed for deep restoration.
