Villa Corazón de la Selva is as majestic as the jungle in which it is nestled. Approaching this new luxury home, it is beautifully framed by the surrounding forest—distinctive and thoughtfully situated. Perched on a ridge overlooking the Pacific, Corazón de la Selva offers soul-restoring ocean views. Its floor-to-ceiling windows invite nature inside, filling the interiors with natural energy while attracting refreshing breezes. Designed in a modern neotropical style by architect Eric Bogantes of ALIANZ, it employs concrete and glass in perfect harmony. The rooms are spacious yet never overwhelming; instead, they embrace, comfort, and inspire.
The most grand space is the main living room, with a nearly three-story cathedral ceiling surrounded by windows that create the sensation of sitting within a canopy. This room is just steps from the main floor and leads to a terrace bordered by an infinity pool with Balinese tiles, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Just beyond the pool and down a few steps, there is a separate guest suite located outside the main house. This mini-apartment includes a bedroom, a bathroom, and a small kitchen, making it perfect for guests seeking a bit more privacy.
The main kitchen and dining area, all in an open-concept layout, are situated on the main level—an intermediate floor overlooking the main living room and the pool, with views extending into the jungle beyond. Once again, with open vistas on three sides, this kitchen is a dream come true for anyone who loves to cook or enjoys having a chef prepare meals. It is equipped with high-end appliances and amenities. Also on the main level is a large bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a private terrace, ideal for anyone with mobility concerns or simply preferring not to climb stairs to the upper bedrooms. Just beyond the main entrance, there is a separate service room.
On the upper floor are three large bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, connected by a spacious ocean-facing terrace that guarantees ample space and enjoyment for family and guests. Since the house is over 500 meters above sea level, the views are breathtaking. The upper level also features a magnificent office with its own balcony, a spacious gym, and a second lounge, adding variety to the social spaces available.
Throughout this architectural tour de force, there are several examples of indoor/outdoor living design, such as the expansive yoga deck above the separate guest suite overlooking the ocean. The property incorporates beautiful, modern composite wood walkways that require no maintenance and wind through landscaped grounds, where gardens and garden seating are thoughtfully placed throughout the estate. To complement the 360-degree natural views, the architect has chosen a natural palette of rich, deep, mottled browns, grays, and creams to emulate the tones of wood and stone. Black and blue accents finish the ensemble with a sophisticated energy that is never overpowering. No expense has been spared in creating this exceptional home.
