AN EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME
Join me for four unforgettable days in Costa Rica, where the jungle meets the Pacific in a spectacular blend of raw beauty and refined design. Perched in the hills of Uvita, our open-air villas are architectural works of art—each with sweeping ocean views, jungle-facing infinity pools, and seamless indoor-outdoor living that immerses you in nature’s rhythm.
I’ll be collaborating with some of Costa Rica’s most talented chefs to create a series of unforgettable dinners—think wood-fired seafood, tropical produce, and bold, soulful flavors that celebrate the country’s incredible biodiversity. From morning coffee with the monkeys to late-night conversations under the stars, every moment is curated for connection, inspiration, and joy.
Whether you’re exploring the coastline, catching a few waves, or just unwinding by the pool, this is barefoot luxury at its best—with food that speaks to place, people, and the pure pleasure of sharing it all together. - Marc
