To truly appreciate this exceptional island retreat, one with a top 10 swimming pool that soars over the ocean and is accessed by private funicular, one has to experience it.
Every day is a fiesta at this private, castle-like compound ringed by a lush, 25,000-acre nature reserve and panoramic ocean vistas. Imagine a striking sunburst-shaped yellow property christened “Sol de Oriente” perched high atop the sea on the Pacific Coast of Mexico, between Puerto Vallarta and Manzanillo, and reachable only by an electric funicular. The top off? A jaw-dropping, 360-degree infinity pool flanked by a terrace offering up breathtaking scenery as far as the eye can see.
“The view is truly extraordinary,” says Denise Moreno, who is listing the property with Gordon MacGeachy, both of the Private Beverly Hills office of Hilton & Hyland, for $9.9 million.
Found on one a highly desirable parcel of land in the exclusive, gated resort community of Costa Careyes—on the point of the Peninsula de las Estrellas overlooking Playa Careyitos, just minutes from Playa Rosa Beach Club—this glorious property boasts four separate structures.
“The energy of the property captures the tranquility and uniqueness of this special place.”
Among them: a fairytale-esque castle featuring three-bedroom suites, as well as an open-air, upper level topped by a large thatched-roof holding a formal dining space, living area with oversized sofas and sundeck; a pair of one-bedroom bungalows sporting oceanfront terraces; and tower with a one-bedroom suite and living area. Other creature comforts include a media room, wireless high-speed Internet and satellite TV, and air-conditioning. Finally is a regal, one-of-a-kind lifestyle with a live-in personal butler, chef, and housekeepers residing in their own quarters.
“The magic of Sol de Oriente is unparalleled,” says Moreno. “The splendor and magnificence can only be described by experiencing this incredibly special property. There is a uniqueness that transcends one to the magical world of Careyes.”
