Luxury beachfront villa, Casa Clara (#23665)

Punta Mita, Nayarit, Mexico

Description of the Punta Mita vacation villa rental

Casa Clara is a very private Pacific beachfront compound consisting of a main house, with stand-alone bedroom bungalows, all in the Coastal Vallarta style.
It is situated in a beautiful mature tropical garden containing well over 100 large palms and hundreds of other smaller palms, flowering trees and shrubs. Everthing about it - warm colors, soft textures, balanced scale/volumes, and natural/earthy materials - is in harmony with its fabulous coastal setting.

Facing south overlooking Banderas Bay, the main 2 story house has its principal rooms - living room, dining room, kitchen, outdoor eating/BBQ area, office and media room - all on the main level facing a garden.
Landscaped for greatest privacy from walkers on the beach, there is a 10-12ft high embankment heavily planted with beautiful prickly succulents, with access provided to Ranchos beach down a few stone steps.

The Four Seasons Resort, Punta Mita, called the "Best Resort in the World �� by Robb Report magazine, offers the finest in accommodations and service in a secluded, picturesque beachfront setting. The resort features a luxurious spa noted for its unique treatments using indigenous products, a Jack Nicklaus ��designed golf course with the world ��s only natural island green, and innovative Latin cuisine.

Located 45 minutes northwest of Puerto Vallarta, the property is a favorite among celebrities and captains of the high tech industry, those seeking a convenient getaway that offers pure pampering in an exotic locale rich with tradition and native Mexican heritage.

The small town of El Anclote, in Punta de Mita, offers many possibilities for high end condo living, as well as many restaurants, offering international cuisine, Mexican seafood and spectacular views of the Marietas islands. Punta de Mita also offers adventures, like whale watching, diving, snorkeling, kayaking, horseback riding and surfing. The influence of the Huichol Indians from the mountains of Nayarit is authentic Mexican experieince thru art.

Going South along the coast and inside Banderas Bay, the land is ripe for the picking by large luxury hotel groups and developers. A bidding war is taking place along the Pacific coast and the best peices are inside this bay.

The present and future is about luxury communities such as Pontoquito, El Farallon, Punta Tortugas, Punta Caracol, Playa Amor, Los Veneros, Cabo Santo, Bolongo, Paradise Coves, and North to the ultra-exclusive luxury developments of El Banco and the Four Seasons Resort, Punta Mita.

Each development features multi-million dollar homes and estates, varying in style and size. Los Veneros beachclub is a great place for weddings and social events as well as for playing tennis and just hanging at the pool and having a fabulous ceviche. In front of the beach club is the famous Punta del Burro beach, best known for its waves that bring surfers from all over the area.

For travelers who want adventure by day and high-thread count by night, don't fret. High-end resorts are not about to miss out on the prospect (and cash cow) of adventure travel. Surprisingly, theFour Seasons Resort, Punta Mita, Mexico (60 minutes from its partying big sister city, Puerto Vallarta ; is leading the way of this trend and putting posh, passive vacations out to pasture.

Guests are no longer forced to lounge by the infinity pool, drink Piña Coladas and be spritzed by Evian misters and dabbed by verbena-scented towels all the livelong day. Now they can sign up for surfing lessons with on-sight teachers, ATV through the back-roads of undiscovered Mexico , frolic with sea-lions off-shore, become scuba certified (PADI) or kayak, windsurf and sail around Banderras Bay, which is set to become a new hybrid destination of adventure-meets-luxury, when a slew of luxury condos and four new resorts open in 2006 including a St. Regis and and Deepak Chopra branded project.
