Costalegre · Jalisco · Mexico

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.

Homes & Key Developments

From beachfront luxury towers to gated dockside villas

Costa Careyes 📍

The artistic enclave Founded in 1968 by Gian Franco Brignone, Costa Careyes is a legendary master-planned community known for its unique “Careyes Style” architecture — combining Mediterranean curves with Mexican palapa craftsmanship. The enclave includes private villas, cliffside Casitas de las Flores (condos starting from ~$800K to $2.5M), and world-famous ocean castles like Sol de Oriente and Sol de Occidente valued up to $40 million. It operates as a highly private retreat with its own beach clubs, polo fields (Club de Polo Costa Careyes), and a 35,000-acre nature reserve. Who buys: international creatives, collectors, and UHNW families who value community, art, and the unique architectural heritage.

Four Seasons Private Residences Tamarindo 📍

Alongside the Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo, these exclusive homesites and custom-built clifftop villas offer raw, dramatic oceanfront views, private infinity pools, and complete integration with the surrounding wild jungle. Residents enjoy full resort privileges, including the 18-hole David Fleming championship golf course, world-class dining, and unmatched concierge services. Who buys: ultra-high-net-worth buyers seeking branded turnkey management, world-class golf, and absolute privacy.

Xala 📍

The sustainable coastal legacy Xala is the newest and most forward-thinking master-planned community on the Costalegre. Centered on social consciousness, agriculture, and community restoration, the development covers over 3,000 acres, including an 8-kilometer stretch of white-sand beach. It features low-density luxury branded villas, estate lots, and boutique hotels, all integrated with local agricultural projects and wildlife conservation. Who buys: sustainable visionaries and early investors looking to participate in a community-first, low-density coastal legacy from the ground floor.

Chablé Costalegre 📍

The wellness & golf sanctuary Located within the 451-hectare Tezcalame master-planned community near La Cruz de Loreto, Chablé Costalegre is an ultra-exclusive resort and residential development. Scheduled to debut its residential phase in 2027, The Residences at Chablé Costalegre features private ocean-view villas designed to merge with the surrounding raw jungles, mangroves, and pristine beaches. Residents enjoy access to premium amenities, including a private beach club, a Greg Norman-designed golf course, an equestrian club, and world-class dining overseen by chef Jorge Vallejo. Who buys: wellness-oriented buyers and golf enthusiasts seeking branded luxury, turnkey management, and absolute seclusion on an emerging coastal stretch.
