Damosa Land, the real estate arm of the Floirendo family, formally launched TRYP by Wyndham Samal on January 29, marking a key milestone in the company’s hospitality portfolio and reinforcing its strategy of using tourism-led projects to support regional growth in Mindanao.
Located on Samal Island, TRYP by Wyndham Samal brings the international lifestyle hotel brand to the area, positioning the island as an emerging leisure and business destination.
TRYP by Wyndham Samal will feature modern accommodations, dining concepts, and leisure amenities aligned with international hospitality standards while incorporating local character.
The launch comes as Damosa Land enters 2026 with plans to expand its footprint across Mindanao and select provincial growth areas outside Metro Manila, focusing on sustainable and community-centered development.
“In 2026, our focus is on scaling responsibly by aligning commercial viability with long-term impact,” said Ricardo F. Lagdameo, President of Damosa Land, Inc. “We continue to see strong opportunities in Mindanao where thoughtful development can unlock economic activity, strengthen local ecosystems, and improve quality of life.”
Against the backdrop of evolving market demand and broader macroeconomic environment, the company said it is prioritizing projects that address identified gaps in tourism, trade, and local enterprise.
Its 2026 pipeline includes new developments and expansions across business parks, hospitality assets, and integrated communities in Mindanao.
Damosa Land is currently advancing projects across its commercial, industrial, and residential portfolio, including Agriya township, Kahi Estates, Damosa IT Park, and ongoing developments within Anflo Industrial Estate.
These initiatives form part of the company’s strategy to anchor long-term regional growth through flagship developments, with TRYP by Wyndham Samal positioned as a key catalyst.
Beyond its commercial role, the hospitality project is expected to boost tourism activity, generate employment, and strengthen the Davao–Samal economic corridor.
“Developments like TRYP by Wyndham Samal reflect a broader shift toward regional, well-planned investments that go beyond individual projects. For Damosa Land, our strategy has always been to build integrated communities—across residential, commercial, industrial, and tourism sectors—that support inclusive growth, generate long-term economic value, and strengthen the regions where we operate,” Lagdameo concluded.
