Casa Palapa is an eco chic beachfront home completely open to the Caribbean breeze with colorful Mexican touches.
All rooms are minimalist in design, which enhances one’s appreciation of the surrounding nature.
The casa derives its name from an enormous palapa attached to it. Its open-sided thatch-roofed space covers 400 sq m and serves as a giant lounge appointed with a full kitchen, generous 20-seater dining table, capacious wine rack, floor lamps, large sofas, colorful bean bag chairs, and other seating, all distributed around the area forming functional and comfort clusters. Naturally illuminated during the day, at night the light comes from 30 variously sized and shaped handmade wicker fixtures hanging from the 15m- high ceiling.
The ocean side of Casa Palapa is given in its entirety to a rivulet-like swimming pool. Long and curving, it seamlessly connects the palapa to the house, where the pool commences with a lesser depth. It culminates where the beautifully massive staircase of the palapa takes one directly to the beach.
At the rear of the Palapa House lies a pristine jungle gently transpierced with a pathway winding in between palm trees.
A few steps away from Casa Palapa is an open tropical chapel standing on the rocks overlooking the ocean. It is spacious enough to seat a congregation of 105 persons. Considering its size and secluded location, Casa Palapa is an ideal accommodation for large ceremonies, events or big family gatherings.
Casa Palapa is the outcome of collaboration by a number of architects, engineers, landscape designers and interior decorators united in their vision of an organic continuum, living in space intimately interlinked with nature and culture. These two forces charge the structure with extraordinary energies, physical and symbolic, the effect of which is pleasantly astonishing. Experience nature and eco luxury in Casa Palapa.
