Island life seems to be Andi Eigenmann's idea of paradise. Despite growing up as a city girl, Andi has always been a beach lover, and having a peaceful life on a pristine island like Siargao was a big change for a famous actress like her.
In 2018, Andi left her busy Manila life and relocated to Baler, Aurora, and later on, moved to Siargao Island with her daughter Ellie. Her move proved to be a great decision as she met her fiancé, surfer Philmar Alipayo. They welcomed their first child together in 2019 and in August 2020, Andi shared that she's expecting her third child--her second one with Philmar.
Although Andi has opted to live in Manila and Siargao, she knows how to live the best of both worlds. Check out Andi's photos with her family living her best island life in Siargao.

After years of searching for the right one, Andi Eigenmann has finally found the love of her life in a simple and non-showbiz guy, Philmar Alipayo.
Since primary livelihood in Siargao is fishing and tourism, Andi has also learned to love the joy of fishing as it is one of Philmar Alipayo's hobbies.
Since the family deeply loves the beach, it became their habit to take peaceful walks along the shore.

It's during her time on the island when she learned to develop cooking and baking skills, too.
Since Siargao island's sunsets are incredibly mesmerizing and soothing, watching the sunset with her loved ones is one of Andi Eigenmann's favorite activities, too.
Apart from changing her lifestyle, Andi has also learned to publicly voice out her stance on taboo topics like body imperfections and unjust criticisms, especially ones that are thrown at her and her partner Philmar.
Even the simplest joys brought about by good harvest has made Andi feel more alive than ever.
More than anything else, Andi's happiness living a simple life reflects on how she perceives life as a meaningful and such a beautiful one.
Andi considers it one of her best decisions to chose happiness with Philmar on the island.

Andi is a glowing happy islander as she doses herself with a fun surfing activity on the daily. The former actress shared, “Happy smiles whenever I get to end my day with a good surf. [I'm] still always trying to improve and learn new things each time, which makes this sport so exciting. What I love most though is how well it contributes to keeping me healthy from the mind, body, and soul.”
