Vista Land, the Philippines’ leading integrated property developer, proudly joins Laoag City, Ilocos Norte, in celebration of Valentine’s Week through the Pamulinawen Festival—a grand tribute to the resilience, unity, and indomitable spirit of the Ilocano people. While rooted in religious devotion to the city’s patron saint, Saint William the Hermit, the pre-Spanish era folk song Pamulinawen also speaks of love both steadfast and true—an ode not just to beauty but to strength, perseverance, and a resolute heart.
The trusted name in Philippine real estate understands that unwavering love, much like a well-built community, stands strong through every season of life. Just as Pamulinawen Festival honors faith, dedication, and resilience, Vista Land is committed to crafting master planned developments called Vista Estates that embody these time-honored values. Its integrated communities in Ilocos Region, Bramasole in Laoag City and Querencia in Metro Vigan, are thoughtfully designed to reflect the rich culture of the region while embracing the promise of progress. Much like the enduring narrative of Pamulinawen, the continuing mission of Vista Land is not only to build homes but legacies that last for generations to come.
Bramasole, a Tuscan-inspired estate basking in the radiance of Ilocos Norte
For those who “yearn for the sun,” Bramasole, a prime Vista Estates development, is recreating the Tuscan countryside on 20 stunning hectares in Laoag City.
Laoag City, the northern gateway of the Northwestern Luzon Growth Quadrangle, stands at the crossroads of tradition and transformation. A mere two-hour flight from major East Asian economic hubs— China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan—the city is poised for growth while remaining deeply connected to its roots. It also leads in sustainability, home to the towering Bangui Wind Farm, the first wind-powered energy source in Southeast Asia.
Amid this dynamic landscape, Bramasole brings the romance of the Tuscan countryside to Ilocos Norte. Inspired by Cortona, Italy—a town known for its historic piazzas, stunning palazzos, buzzing trattorias, and old-world artisanal shops—Bramasole is designed to capture the old-world elegance and warmth of European-inspired living.
In the works is an upscale lifestyle center in Laoag City which will include coffee-shop chain Coffee Project.
Rising at its heart is Bramasole Residences, an enclave of multi-tower condominium properties with smart-ready features and globally inspired amenities, including a clubhouse with a pavilion, swimming pool, play areas, and landscaped parks and gardens. Built for those who appreciate the grandeur of the past and the promise of the future, Bramasole brings lifescapes made more beautiful by time to the most promising city in IlocosNorte.
Classic Spanish architecture finds a new home in Querencia at Ilocos Sur
Rising on 16 beautiful hectares in Metro Vigan is a prime Vista Estates development called Querencia, aptly named from the Spanish word for “something desired”.
Metro Vigan, the provincial capital of Ilocos Sur, is admired for its Belgian block streets and architecture, which are unique to the city. It is home to a fusion of Filipino and oriental building design with age-old colonial structures, creating residences that resemble old European towns but are adapted to the tropical climate and constructed with local materials.
A breathtaking 2,511 hectares of mostly delicately gentle hills and greenery, Vigan is located a scenic 407 kilometers from Manila, another 82 kilometers from Laoag, and 138 kilometers from the regional capital of the Ilocos Region, San Fernando in La Union. Here, the breathtaking master planned development of Querencia will rise.
Vista Land is creating master planned developments where Filipinos who seek their sanctuaries and build better tomorrows can find their place.
Echoing the Mission-style architecture of Alta California, Querencia will be composed of charming hamlets and tower clusters of white stucco topped with clay-tile roofs loved on the West Coast. Architecture reminiscent of Santa Barbara will blanket the micro city and breathe fascinating new life into Bantay. The exquisitely painted azulejo tiles will line the walkways and park trails and imbibe commercial areas and amenity spaces with Spanish art, life, and color. Its commercial hub, aptly named Azulejos, is inspired by Paseo Nuevo, the sprawling open-air shopping and dining center in Santa Barbara.
