It is a remarkable sequence of interconnected experiences, where elegant entertaining spaces, private retreats, resort-inspired amenities, and the surrounding landscape are woven together with exceptional architectural clarity.Equally remarkable is the uncompromising quality of its construction.

At Mansion Morenas, that experience starts beyond beautifully crafted entrance gates, where the outside world quietly gives way to rolling pasture, mature trees, and sweeping mountain vistas.The approach is deliberately unhurried, allowing the surrounding landscape to unfold gradually before the residence gracefully reveals itself within one of Costa Rica’s most remarkable countryside settings. It is an arrival that immediately conveys the privacy, permanence, and understated confidence that define the estate.Stepping inside, the remarkable scale of the residence is matched by an unmistakable sense of warmth. Designed as a place where people naturally gather, the principal living spaces flow effortlessly from elegant formal lounges to beautifully appointed dining rooms, a chef’s kitchen, and an intimate tasting lounge created for the enjoyment of fine wines, rare cognacs, and premium cigars.Expansive walls of glass dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, revealing a spectacular entertaining pavilion centred around a heated indoor pool, elegant lounges, multiple dining settings, and a fully equipped professional catering kitchen designed to comfortably accommodate everything from intimate family gatherings to grand celebrations. The Pavilion forms the social heart of the estate; a remarkable space where architecture, hospitality, wellness, and landscape come together as one uninterrupted experience. More than an entertaining space, it is a destination in its own right.Beyond, the experience continues onto an expansive outdoor entertaining terrace featuring a dramatic infinity-edge pool, a plunge pool, a private jacuzzi, a sunken fire lounge, panoramic viewing decks, and beautifully landscaped gardens. On the opposite elevation, the residence opens to yet another outdoor entertaining area where relaxed seating, table games, and garden terraces create an entirely different atmosphere before pathways continue naturally toward the firepit, sun deck, and dedicated wellness/gym level below.Rather than separating daily living from entertaining, the residence celebrates both. Every room has been carefully composed to encourage conversation, connection, and effortless movement, while expansive windows frame the surrounding countryside at every opportunity.
