About this place
Marinduque Hot Spring Resort: The Mt. Malindig Soak
Long known to locals as Susana Hot Spring before rebranding, Marinduque Hot Spring Resort in Barangay Malbog, Buenavista, is a spa-resort setup built around one of the island’s best natural assets — sulfuric hot spring pools fed straight from Mount Malindig. The volcano’s geothermal heat is what keeps the water warm year-round, and the mineral content is what keeps people coming back.
What’s on Offer
The resort’s main draw is its hot spring pools, long credited with therapeutic properties by locals who’ve been bathing here for years. The setup is built for both day and night swimming, giving visitors flexibility on when to visit — mornings for quiet soaks, evenings for a different atmosphere altogether.
Planning Your Visit
Historically, the resort has been open roughly 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with entry fees in the PHP 50–70 range for day or night swimming. That said, those figures are based on older announcements, so contact the resort directly for current rates and hours before you go — numbers ship up and down seasonally, and operating hours have shifted over the years.
For inquiries, reach the resort at +63 910 632 5924 or +63 963 295 1584.
A Note on Reopening
After a temporary closure during the pandemic, the resort reopened on January 18, 2021, with updated safety protocols. Things have moved on since, but it’s still worth a quick call ahead to confirm the day’s operating status, especially if you’re coming from across the island.
Pair It With
Marinduque Hot Spring Resort sits in the same Malbog area as the separately-operated Malbog Sulfuric Hotspring, and both draw from the same volcanic heat source. Travelers putting together a Buenavista itinerary often combine a hot spring visit with a Mount Malindig trail peek or a Buenavista View Deck stop for the full range — warm water, cool views.
Best Time to Visit
Year-round; cooler dry-season months (December–February) are when the contrast between cool air and warm sulfuric water is most pleasant. Mornings and late afternoons are calmest; weekends draw locals for the springs' reputed wellness benefits.
What to Bring
How to Get Here
In Brgy. Malbog, the Buenavista barangay famous for sulfuric hot springs. From Buenavista Centro, hire a tricycle and tell the driver "Malbog Hot Spring Resort" — they know it. From Balanacan Port, plan as a half-day arrival.
Local routes, fares, and ferry schedules can shift without notice — and travel times depend on weather, traffic, and tide. Confirm fares and timing with the driver or locals before you set out.
