While you may not yet be familiar with the coastal compound of Casa Sol De Oriente, once you see it, you’ll never forget it.
The iconic compound’s bright-yellow facade and palatial structure make it an instantly recognizable landmark, set above the ocean on a flora-laden hillside.
Three tiers of palapa roof top the house, which opens to terrace space and a poolside deck.

Although translated to “eastern sun house,” Casa Sol de Oriente sits on the western coast of the Mexican state of Jalisco in the luxury villa enclave of Costa Careyes, between Puerto Vallarta and Manzanillo.
Instead of the location, the estate takes the name from the stunning sunrise views afforded by its perched position.
The indoor and outdoor living spaces blend seamlessly.
LPR Luxury
Constructed in 1996 by the late Gian Franco Brigone, founder of Costa Careyes, the seaside compound is made up of four separate structures—a star-shaped main house, two one-bedroom bungalows and a rook-shaped one-bedroom tower.

In addition, the property now includes three-quarters of an acre of adjacent property, known as Los Mandarinos, which sits down the hill along the sea.

Blending multiple architectural styles, the butter-colored home features delicately curved walls, seamless indoor-to-outdoor openings and a three-tier palapa-style roof.
Living spaces and suites feature monochromatic walls, floors and ceilings, creating a seamless effect that is only interrupted by wooden shutters and doors that frame views of the jungle and ocean.

An infinity swimming pool surrounds the compound’s main house, creating the illusion of a floating castle.
Views encompass the mountainous Chamela-Cuixmala nature reserve, the Pacific Ocean and the beaches below.
Reachable by a private funicular, the resort home is guarded by a gate and the 24-hour security of Costa Careyes.
The addition of a three-quarter acre lot extends the property to the ocean below.
