Rancho Maria Lucas is an organic farm located in Brgy. Dampigan, Sta Rita Samar. It thrives on its own biodiversity and sustainability with its organic livestock farming, fruit-bearing trees and rice plantation, and bee farming. The 59-acre land is home to a variety of crops, trees, ornamental plants, livestock animals, and bees.
What makes the place unique is that it offers a diverse experience, extremely opposite from what most of us go through every day in our busy urban life. Here, you'll experience the bliss of going basics, appreciate the abundance of nature, enjoy the serenity of rural life, and celebrate being one with nature.
Camping, guided tours, photoshoots, event receptions, and seminars are just a few of the activities that we offer in the ranch. And as we join the government in gradually opening the economy, we are planning to offer more activities and amenities that will help you boost your business and generate more customers.
We are looking for a restaurant or restobar owner who is willing to start or expand his/her business in Rancho Maria Lucas. Our restaurant area is open for a new tenant who would like to use the place to set up their food business. Due to the lack of manpower, we can't open a food hub for our customers to dine in. That's why we decided to outsource and accept a willing food business owner to utilize our existing restaurant and kitchen area to start the business operations.
We had previous tenants who rented our restaurant area but after Typhoon Haiyan, we decided to temporarily close the ranch for restoration and reconstruction. Now that we're finally back to business, we're opening our doors for partnership.
Technically, we are looking for a tenant who will set up his/her restaurant business on our ranch. However, we prefer calling it a partnership because we will help you and your business get acquainted with the existing market first before actually charging you for rent. We will waive your first three (3) months' rent to help you establish your business first and give you time to work your way through from setting up, marketing, advertising, and operations. We want you to be acquainted with the area and get to know your market. Plus, you'll get abundant time to generate income before you start paying on rentals.
What our partnership has to offer?
What's good about partnering with an existing business is that their customers become yours as well. We believe in the power of coexisting and by using this, we both can grow and succeed in our respective industries.
The advantage of this partnership is that our customers are going to be your customers as well. We offer guided tours, camping, seminars, and event reception and who else are they going to call for their food and catering needs but you, our partner. You can rely that we will always recommend you on our future bookings and business dealings.
After touring around the ranch and exploring the farm, our customers will surely need sumptous food and refreshing drinks to satiate their hunger and quench their thirst. Great tasting food, a cozy restaurant, and great customer service are what they need after spending some time discovering the different areas of the farm and unraveling the rich history that lies behind every artifact.
With us, you're sure to get every possible support needed to help you establish your food business from promotion down to marketing. So what are you waiting for? Grab this rare opportunity and let's build an exciting journey towards a successful business ahead.

In front of the function hall lies the hand-carved horse swings that your kids can enjoy. These swings seats are made from used rubber tires, cut and carved into miniature horses giving a different look to the common swing. You may also enjoy the mini-garden view a few meters away from the function hall while enjoying a cup of hot choco or coffee at the uniquely crafted garden set made from old rubber tires.
