Real Remote Worker Experiences

"Best Decision for My Productivity"

"I moved from a cramped Manila condo to a Lumawig 2-bedroom in John Hay for 3 months. The difference was night and day. Having a dedicated office room, waking up to cool fresh air, and being able to walk to cafes during breaks transformed my work life. The internet was even faster than my Manila connection! Lumawig's team was responsive whenever I had questions. Extended twice and planning my next stay." - Marco T., UX Designer

"Perfect for Our Startup Team"

"Our 4-person startup team rented a large Lumawig house in Wright View for 2 months. Each of us had a bedroom, we set up two workspaces, and the living room became our meeting area. The cost split 4 ways was incredibly affordable (₱15,000 each for everything!). The inspiring views and cooler weather kept our energy high. Best work environment we've ever had." - Tech Startup Team

"Saved My Sanity"

"After a year of pandemic work-from-home in Metro Manila, I was burning out. Renting a Lumawig property in Baguio for a month was exactly what I needed. Same work, completely different mental state. The separation between work space and home space in the property helped me disconnect. Plus, Lumawig made everything easy - from booking to check-out. Returned to Manila refreshed and refocused." - Lisa M., Marketing Manager
