StarDome has always been more than a hotel. The business started as a means to benefit people who are in search of something: spiritual connection, answers to questions, or even just a stable job.

The late co-founder, Bob Berman, met current owner, Carlos Gibaja, while in search of answers to his wife’s passing. Carlos introduced Bob to the sacred land on Mt. Antanuca, giving him space to use his pain to connect to the Apus. Bob allowed himself to open up to what the spirits had to say and as a result he accessed much-needed healing.

It’s with this exact power and spirituality upon which StarDome was inspired. Bob and Carlos intended that each willing person have access to the same healing. And it’s in honor of Bob’s spirit and in aim of this mission that we continue to provide a space for it.
