Elegant living areas feature priceless art, refined furnishings, and modern comforts, while expansive terraces invite long afternoons of relaxation and celebration.
At the heart of the estate, an oceanfront infinity pool extends seamlessly toward the horizon. Featuring a hot spa at both ends of the pool and a shady live palm tree in the center – the pool becomes an exquisite sanctuary suspended above the shimmering waters of Banderas Bay. From this privileged vantage point, take in uninterrupted views of the iconic arches of Los Arcos National Marine Park, renowned for its crystalline waters, exceptional snorkeling, and abundant marine life.
