Domaine De 6 Chambres Avec Vue Sur L'océan À Mismaloya Puerto Vallarta

There is a moment on the approach to Casa Kalista, somewhere on the last turn of the hill road, when the jungle opens and the whole of Banderas Bay arrives at once. The house was built to hold that moment. Everything after it is architecture in service of a view... Casa Kalista is a six-bedroom, eight-bath estate of 1,038.27 square meters (11,176 square feet) on a 1,054.76 square meter hillside parcel in Lomas de Mismaloya, a gated community on Puerto Vallarta’s South Shore. It follows the logic of the best coastal Mexican building. Rather than flatten the slope, it steps down it. Each level finds its own terrace, its own outlook, its own pocket of shade... The penthouse suite is the reason to come up the hill. It occupies two levels of its own at the top of the house, a generous loft above the sleeping quarters and a studio area beside it, both opening to panoramic views across the bay and back into the Sierra Madre. The suite sits apart from the rest of the residence, and that separation is the point. The house below can fill with guests and the suite still reads as a private residence... Warm ochre stucco, deep covered terraces, ironwork railings and patterned stone floors: the material language here is the vernacular of this coast, where a roof exists as much for shade as for shelter and the wall between inside and outside is more suggestion than boundary. Terraces run the length of the principal rooms. Fans turn slowly under the overhangs. The Pacific breeze does the rest of the work... Below the house the grounds descend through mature gardens. A pool, a jacuzzi, a waterfall and a fountain step down the terraces to a palapa at the lowest level, thatched in the traditional way and the coolest place on the property at two in the afternoon... Six bedrooms and eight full baths in the main residence, offered furnished, with a second kitchen and a garage. Every principal room carries an ocean or a jungle view, and no neighboring structure stands in the sight lines. Privacy here is a function of the parcel rather than of the finishes. A separate three-bedroom, three-bath service residence sits on the property in original condition, ready to be remodeled to your own specification... Mismaloya is the cove where John Huston filmed The Night of the Iguana in 1964, the production that turned a fishing village into Puerto Vallarta. Los Arcos National Marine Park lies minutes offshore, protected water for diving and snorkeling. The Romantic Zone is about fifteen minutes north by car and the international airport about forty... Title is held by escritura and fideicomiso, so an international buyer can own here directly through a Mexican bank trust.
