Costalegre
Mexico’s last great hidden coast — 150 kilometers of wild cliffs, private ecological reserves, and iconic architectural enclaves, from Cabo Corrientes down to Barra de Navidad.
Costalegre is not a weekend escape. It is a commitment to the landscape: trading urban conveniences for open horizon, accepting the drive from Puerto Vallarta or Manzanillo, and in return finding a coastline of raw beauty where the jungle meets the Pacific on its own terms. It stretches for over 150 kilometers along the Jalisco coastline — a series of dramatic bays, pristine lagoons, and rocky points — where the sky is bigger, the water is clearer, and the crowd is non-existent.
This is Mexico’s eco-luxury sanctuary. Rather than big-box hotels or high-density condo rows, the Costalegre has been preserved by private conservationists, artists, and families who treated the land as sacred. Here, you’ll find legendary private estates like Cuixmala, the iconic Mediterranean-Mexican architecture of Careyes, and emerging master-planned enclaves like Xala and Tamarindo. It suits the collector, the privacy seeker, and the buyer who values natural scale and architectural character over street-side convenience.

Distance to Airport
A 150-kilometer coast, not a single address. Careyes is ~3 hours from Puerto Vallarta and 1.5 from Manzanillo; Barra de Navidad reverses that.
The Landscape
Costa Careyes holds 35,000 privately protected acres. Just south, the federal Chamela–Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve covers 13,142 hectares (~32,500 acres) decreed in 1993.
Architecture
Bold, organic Mediterranean curves conceived by Gian Franco Brignone in 1968 and built by architects Marco Aldaco, Diego Villaseñor and Jean-Claude Galibert.
Vibe
A retreat for artists, visionaries, and collectors who want absolute obscurity and raw Pacific nature.
