Our Story
The word Bulan is of Malay-Bahasan origin and means “moon”; it is still widely-retained in parts of the Visayas region of the Philippines, and is the origin of the Tagalog word for moon which is “buwan” as well as the local Siargaonon word “buyan.”
We’ve named our abode as such for the simple reason that life in Siargao Island revolves around the moon: livelihood and past-times are dictated by its seven phases. As if transported to a place and time in which the hours of the clock serve lesser importance to the day to day; life slows down, becomes more simple, and yet more meaningful at the same time.
