The study assessed the tourism contributions of resorts within a single municipality in the southern region of Oriental Mindoro. The research employed a descriptive-correlational methodology. Sixty locals, government representatives, visitors, and municipality workers took part. The profile was analyzed using percentage and rank, the weighted mean for the amount of tourism contributions, and Pearson’s R to see whether there was a meaningful correlation. The majority of respondents were residents and students, and they strongly agreed that the selected resorts’ contributions to sociocultural, economic, and environmental dimensions were significant. Environmental influences on respondents’ work and marital status, as well as sociocultural and economic factors on respondents’ marital status, were shown to be significantly correlated. The goals and initiatives of the suggested sustainable program will increase the contributions of tourism in the Municipality of Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro.
