Sierra del Mar Palo Maria

Within view of the Los Arcos National Marine Park, sits one of the last significant sites on Puerto Vallarta´s scenic South Shore, Sierra del Mar Los Arcos. Carlos Osuna Sr. and Jr., developers of award-winning Sierra del Mar on the hillside above Playas Gemelas, are now building an exclusive oceanfront community minutes down the road toward Mismaloya. With Sierra del Mar´s trademark distinction and planning by architect Miguel Ángel López, this spectacular property is conserved in its natural state, featuring mature tropical trees, granite boulders and exotic coastal terrain. The low-density development offers nine waterfront residences, 10 villas and 34 luxury condominiums in four exclusive mid-rise buildings with only one or two units per floor. Sierra del Mar Los Arcos´ first phase of oceanfront sites sold out in 2006, with construction of the estate homes underway. Infrastructure is 70 percent in place, scheduled for completion in 2008, including handcrafted rock retaining walls, gatehouses, a half-kilometer of streets with sidewalks, underground utilities, landscaped areas for nature walks and a private palapa beach club with lounge, snack bar, terrace, pool, Jacuzzi and gym.

Condominiums designed by renowned architect Juan Manuel Munguia are under construction, featuring 3,200 sq. ft. of living space, three bedrooms, 3.5 baths, integrated dining and entertaining, kitchen and ample terraces with 40-plus feet of ocean frontage.

Finishes include marble floors and countertops, hardwood carpentry, PVC windows with double-paned laminated glass and screens, zoned air-conditioning, professionally designed kitchens with European hardware, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Amenities include a full-size laundry, in-house storage rooms and closets. Basement elevator service offers designated parking with storage.
