Bring Wellness Home With Four Seasons

Posted on by Colleen Mitchell

“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives,” wrote Annie Dillard. But replace the “how” in this equation with “where” and you have the predominant thought running through the minds of most potential homeowners.

More and more, luxury real estate buyers are looking for amenities that exist as an extension of a residence to determine whether it’s the place for them. That includes everything from a place to do daily exercise to access to nature and the quality of the air and light both inside and out. Because it’s not just a home you’re buying, it’s also the environment and lifestyle that come with it. The approach is a holistic one that centres wellness and joy just as much as everything else.

From a serene indoor garden outfitted with private thermal pools and a spa on the shores of Lake Austin to an organic farm-to-table restaurant in Belize, Four Seasons Private Residences offer world-class wellness amenities, privacy and a dedication to intuitive, personalized service in Residences throughout the world. Wellness-minded buyers take note – here are some of the most impressive features and amenities you’ll find at Four Seasons.

Owners at Lake Austin have access to an incredibly array of curated amenities, all easily reached via scenic walking paths.

A sustainable community on Lake Austin

Having a place in the country looks a little different than you might expect at
Four Seasons Private Residences Lake Austin. This standalone residential property – meaning it’s not attached to a hotel or resort – is perched high up on a secluded cliffside overlooking Lake Austin, with views of downtown Austin just a glance away. Developer Jonathan Coon has a singular vision for this beautiful stretch of 145 acres (59 hectares) in Texas Hill Country, one where sustainability, high-end design and environmental stewardship all work together to create a curated, frictionless lifestyle.

To achieve that vision, the amenities here are just as big a selling feature as the incredible setting. Residents at Lake Austin will have access to private wellness, spa, beauty and fitness experiences on-site, along with plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation. The Orangerie, a lush indoor garden featuring an 82-foot (25 metre) pool plus ample areas for yoga and meditation, leads to a state-of-the-art Athletic Center with private training rooms, two squash courts, a full-size indoor basketball court, an indoor clay tennis court, an outdoor tennis court, four dedicated indoor pickleball courts, two golf simulators, and a children’s gym and play area. A private spa and beauty salon are also on-site.

Outside, the main draw is the waterfront. Residents can hop on a glass-walled funicular for a two-minute, air-conditioned ride down to the lake and private marina, a setting so untouched that this is the only way you can access it. Once there, a 3,500-square-foot private Lake Clubhouse and owners-only boat slips help facilitate your lakeside fun. On Lake Austin, getting out of the city comes with so much more than peace and quiet (though you’ll have that, too).

A private island with Four Seasons service? Yes, please! Set on 280 pristine acres (113 hectares) featuring six miles of white-sand beaches, Caye Chapel is the first private island managed by Four Seasons in the Americas. Here you’ll find a brand-new resort – slated to open in 2024 – along with private residences, a Greg Norman-designed golf course, a marina and the on-site Fabien Cousteau Nature and Conservation Institute, all surrounded by nationally protected marine wildlife reserves.

A dedication to conservation is at the heart of this island community, and owners at Four Seasons Private Residences Caye Chapel, Belize, can enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds them while also investing in its protection and its future. Sustainable practices such as replanting native flora, a solar electricity program, sustainably caught seafood and an on-site organic garden that supplies the island restaurants with fresh produce all serve to nurture a healthy, mutually beneficial relationship between the community and the island itself. Residents can explore and learn about incredible dive sites such as the Great Blue Hole; try out a variety of water activities; or take it easy with yoga sessions, a day at the spa or a relaxing afternoon on the beach enjoying in the fresh island breeze. If you’re looking to reconnect with nature, absorb the healing properties of water and tap into the island way of life, Caye Chapel is a tropical escape you can feel good about.

Connect with nature in Cabo del Sol

Just a quick flight away from many major U.S. cities, Cabo San Lucas remains on the hot list for luxury buyers. The pace here is fun-loving yet laid-back, providing a refreshing break from the typical day-to-day. Four Seasons Private Residences Cabo San Lucas at Cabo del Sol aims to give residents the tools they need to create a more intentional way of life guided by nature and a sense of adventure.

This setting, coupled with attentive Four Seasons service, makes it easy to settle into a feeling of wonder and well-being.

Like at every Four Seasons Private Residence, all the details are taken care of for you, such as pre-arrival grocery shopping and transportation assistance.

Practicing mindfulness here is easy, whether it’s sitting on your terrace admiring the cherry blossoms in the spring, wandering the tree- and water-lined paths of the pond garden, or savouring every moment of a traditional tea ceremony at Shakusui-tei in the Tea House. Owners also have access to all of the amenities and dining options at Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto, including the Michelin-starred Sushi Wakon where you can sample dishes at the 8-metre long sushi counter, handcrafted out of a single piece of Japanese cypress some 200 years ago.

Resort-style living in Bahrain

So much of wellness has to do with balance, and Four Seasons Private Residences Bahrain Bay gives owners an ideal mix of privacy and proximity to big city life. These residences occupy an enviable setting right on the waterfront of Bahrain Bay, a secluded enclave that feels like a world apart from the city that it overlooks. But nothing here is far out of reach. Owners can unwind at a residents-only outdoor pool, take in the views from the double-height windows as they exercise in the gym or relax with friends and family during a movie night in the private theatre.

The interiors themselves were designed to bring that oasis-like setting inside, amplifying the feeling of being connected to nature through double-height windows and the use of rich materials such as locally sourced mother-of-pearl inlay, marble and verde Guatemala stone. Furthering that balance of home and five-star hotel, all the resort-style amenities at Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay are located right across a private bridge. A spa, world-class dining, family-friendly activities and a private beach are just a quick chauffeur-driven golf cart ride away.

Like in Bahrain, a home in a city setting doesn’t have to mean nature is out of reach. Four Seasons Private Residences New Cairo Capital at Madinaty plans to make the most of its surrounding park land: Its brand-new residences will feature expansive shaded private terraces while villas will be outfitted with their own private pools and spacious decks. Soaring ceilings, spa-like bathrooms and artistically minded interiors by Pierre-Yves Rochon also help to cultivate relaxation and reflection.

Residents can stroll through the gardens and along lakeside walkways en route to the private spa, stopping to find a quiet space to meditate or simply gather their thoughts before indulging in a wellness treatment. For those interested in more active ways to find their centre, residents can also enjoy the first-class sports facilities including a tennis court and multi-sport court (think basketball, handball and paddle tennis), as well as a high-tech gym, fitness classes and a dedicated aerobics area.

Cabo Is Ready for Its Spotlight

Posted on by Andi Petrini

Located at the tip of the Baja California peninsula on Mexico’s west coast, Cabo has been a haven of relaxation and splendour since the golden age of Hollywood. The Rat Pack enjoyed escaping the glare of their public lives there, while John Wayne preferred fishing in Cabo San Lucas. Errol Flynn and Bing Crosby also enjoyed the laid-back Cabo lifestyle.

But besides its most famous jet-setters, Cabo is quickly becoming the destination of choice for people wanting an additional place to call home. In Cabo, the Mexican Riviera becomes so much more than a vacation destination. Here you can breathe in that Sea of Cortez air; access secluded stretches of swimmable beach from the comfort your own home; and live life at a slower, though no less exciting, pace. Pair that with the influx of luxury real estate to choose from, and the appeal of Cabo becomes undeniable.

Lcp 034

High-end relaxation made easy

Currently, about 90% of real estate transactions in Cabo are from U.S. and Canadian buyers, which speaks to the ease of purchasing property in Mexico. Developer real estate teams often help guide buyers through the Mexican purchasing process, working with U.S.-based escrow and title insurance companies to make the transaction as smooth and transparent as possible. It’s telling that many Four Seasons homeowners in Cabo also own homes at other Four Seasons properties, some having developed interest in other locations even before moving into their Cabo estates because of the ease of the process.

This piece of paradise may be particularly enticing for those based in the U.S., who can catch an easy flight from many places in the country. But the level of service, the quality food scene, the perfect weather and the overall vacation-vibe lifestyle are appealing to buyers worldwide. So how does a discerning buyer make the choice that’s right for them? With two distinct properties to choose from, Four Seasons Private Residences invites homeowners to experience the best of Mexico’s Baja peninsula, with the exclusive, rugged landscape of Four Seasons Private Residence Los Cabos at Costa Palmas or the village-style atmosphere right on the beach at Four Seasons Private Residences Cabo San Lucas.

“We look at where our customers want to be, and where we can deliver our brand promise to those who want to commit to living our brand lifestyle over and above vacationing,” says Paul White, Four Seasons Senior Vice President of Residential Development, Sales and Marketing. “We have two properties here [in Cabo], so it’s a very important spot for us.”

Four Seasons Private Residences elevates the home experience, providing all the amenities from the resort properties, which are also on site, plus a dedicated residential team to make sure even the smallest details are in place before a key is turned. It’s homeownership without the fuss.

Lcp 030

Calling Costa Palmas home

Homeowners can also embrace the quintessential Cabo lifestyle on the Sea of Cortez at Four Seasons Private Residence Los Cabos at Costa Palmas, where the tranquillity and natural landscape of the secluded East Cape are the perfect low-key escape from any hustle and bustle. This is, after all, the same stretch of sea that captured the interest of oceanographer Jacques Cousteau, who referred to it as “the aquarium of the world.”

Homes here are beachfront, marina side or ocean view, and owners can select from four bespoke home designs that are made to blend seamlessly into the landscape, or buyers can design and build their own custom seaside villa. Either way, residents and their guests will have access to more than 2 miles of swimmable beaches among the rugged natural surroundings, while yacht owners will also be thrilled to find the Costa Palmas Marina and Yacht Club just steps from their front door.

Outdoor adventures such as snorkelling, diving, kayaking, sailing, deep-sea fishing, swimming with dolphins or simply enjoying a lounge chair on the white sand are all within easy reach. And that’s in addition to access to the other amenities available at nearby Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas, including pools, a Spa, two tennis courts and a state-of-the art Fitness Centre and Sports Club designed by internationally renowned fitness expert, Harley Pasternak. There really is something for everyone – and every family – at Costa Palmas.

Adventures abound in Cabo San Lucas

At Four Seasons Private Residences Cabo San Lucas at Cabo Del Sol, every room has a view of the Sea of Cortez, making it easy to sit back and watch the boats go by from your private terrace while you snack on fresh guacamole and chips prepared by the Four Seasons culinary team.

The lush landscape of the boutique village-style property sits right on one of the few swimmable beaches in Cabo, while the natural shoreline and rock formations offer an additional sense of discovery and adventure. You’ll find a mix of 61 private villas, residences and estates, each designed to evoke a soothing, elegant luxury, featuring nature-inspired colours and materials – wood ceilings, stone veneer columns and walls, and light marble floors that draw inspiration from traditional Mexican haciendas with a contemporary twist.

Here, homeowners can also buy into the exclusive Cove Club, providing discretion, camaraderie and a private-club lifestyle, plus access to some great restaurants. Paddleboarding and a variety of water sports and activities are also available on site, and private club members have some added perks that can’t be found anywhere else. Don’t feel like playing a full 18 holes at the acclaimed Jack Nicklaus–designed Cove Club Course? No problem. Care to go straight from the beach to the golf course, without having to pack your golf shoes? You can even play barefoot if you’d like.

The typical owner drawn to Cabo San Lucas is active and curious, always open to trying new things. With so much freedom and so many options, this could be where you discover a hidden talent for fishing or even a newfound love for pickleball, a sport you might never have thought to try before calling Cabo home.

The Four Seasons treatment

Owners and their guests experience the high-level of service and hospitality you’d expect from Four Seasons from arrival to departure. You can also rest easy knowing that a dedicated team is taking care of your home at all times, whether you’re there or not. When an owner is away, the team ensures the home is cleaned and secured. Ready to head back? All you have to do is let the team know and they will open the home, adjust the temperature to your preference, freshen up the space, stock the refrigerator and have a pitcher of margaritas ready to make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in the door.

A Day in the Life: Living in Costa Rica with Four Seasons

Posted on by Jennifer Sanchez

What makes a place feel like home? For many, it’s a sense of ease, comfort and joy. At Four Seasons Private Residences Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo, it’s David Mendez’s job to make sure every resident feels that from the moment they arrive. We asked Mendez to give us a glimpse into this unique homeownership experience from his insider’s point of view.

As the Director of Residences, what is a typical day like for you?

It’s all about connection. My day starts by connecting with the team to talk about who is arriving that day, reviewing the itineraries of the residents who are already on property to see what they might need and, of course, making sure that every home is kept in tip-top shape. And then the most important part is connecting with our residents. Whether it’s arranging the room towels in a fun shape for families arriving with kids or preparing a cake, flowers and balloons for someone who is here celebrating a birthday, we want every single resident to feel love and recognition as soon as they arrive.

Cos 1558 Cos 1460 970x540

Tell us about the relationship you and your team have with your residents.

Most of our owners come to the property in vacation mode, so we really begin cultivating each relationship during the pre-arrival process, where we talk about everything about their upcoming stay and how we can make it special for them. We always remember any preference or detail they’ve shared during previous visits so we can make sure they feel at home. It’s truly a joy to have them back, and we want them to know and feel that.

Our owners do like to be seen and recognized in public areas, so we never miss the chance to say hello. Some of our owners have been around long enough to see our team members grow within the organization and, in turn, some team members have watched our owners’ children grow up, so there are often close, long-lasting relationships that are built over the years. There’s a strong sense of community here on Peninsula Papagayo that can be felt everywhere.

Cos 1268 970x540

Four Seasons is known for its exceptional and intuitive service. What does that look and feel like for homeowners, and how does it differ from your typical luxury real estate experience?

At Four Seasons, it feels like family. Like the comfort and trust of returning to a place that knows who you are, knows your family members and knows your preferences. It’s being greeted by a familiar face, with the feeling that you are living in a community that genuinely wants you to have a great time. We always aim to go above and beyond.

For example, we had one owner who was very excited about his grandson’s first visit. Before he arrived, we had a child’s bathrobe embroidered with the baby’s name on it. We also included a welcome amenity with a note saying ‘Welcome to the world, and your new house.’ Sometimes it’s more intimate gestures like this, but other times, we like to go big. My team is often seen driving down the street with colourful balloons flying from the golf cart to lead a special birthday parade.

Cos 1991 Screen Hi Res

What makes this Costa Rica property so unique?

For starters, our location in Prieta Bay on Peninsula Papagayo is simply mesmerizing, with expansive views of the Pacific Ocean, magical sunsets and an unparalleled closeness to nature. But beyond the beautiful landscape, it’s the community of people that really make this place unique. Costa Rica was recognized a few years ago as the happiest country in the world – this ties back to a phrase we have here: pura vida [the happy life]. My team and I are proud ambassadors of the pura vida lifestyle, which for us, means we genuinely care about the well-being of our residents and do everything we can to make sure they feel that.

Given the location on Costa Rica’s idyllic Peninsula Papagayo, how does Four Seasons incorporate sustainability into both the residences themselves and the lifestyle that owners are buying into?

We also give residents the ability to join activities that support social responsibility, like supporting local schools and adopting families through the Creciendo Juntos outreach program, or other initiatives where our residents can help with coral gardening. Overall, our residents love the proximity to nature and wildlife. Some of the owners have really invested their time learning about the local wildlife and get really excited about it!

Cos 1491 970x540

What do you think is the biggest draw for residents, and what do they find most valuable about living here?

Our homeowners love the proximity to nature, but what they truly value most is the carefree ownership, the overall access to services from the Resort, the feeling of not having to worry about the day-to-day details of your home and the certainty that there is a team of professionals tending your needs while you’re here. They also value being part of an exclusive community that is supporting and taking care of all aspects of their home, allowing them to fully embody the pura vida lifestyle.

Tall ceilings, a neutral colour palette and open-concept living spaces create an easy flow throughout each residence, with rooms transitioning seamlessly into private outdoor terraces that invite you to fully appreciate the unobstructed view. Or head up to the 64th-floor residents-only Four Seasons Club and take in the panoramic vistas from the infinity-edge Sky Pool, one of the highest rooftop pools in all of Bangkok.

A Scandinavian-inspired residence in Minneapolis

The unique collection of 34 homes at Four Seasons Private Residences Minneapolis brings the spirited character of downtown Minneapolis to life. This is where a thriving community of artists, chefs, musicians and entertainers call home, and the residences reflect that sense of connection. The design of the building was inspired by the architectural legacy of Minneapolis, using a rich palette of woods, metals, stones and textiles throughout, while the residences themselves pull inspiration from the city’s cultural heritage. Offered in two different styles – Nordic and Urban – each captures a different facet of Minneapolis. With its oak floors and marble countertops, the Nordic palette embodies the bright, clean-lined aesthetic of the city’s Scandinavian influence. The Urban palette, though similar in floor plan, plays more into the glamourous authenticity of Minneapolis through herringbone walnut floors and moodier granite finishes. No matter the style, every residence comes with its own private balcony expertly integrated into the living space, serving as an outdoor extension of the main living area and equipped with ceiling-mounted heaters so you can enjoy the space year round.

The striking Four Seasons Private Residences Boston at One Dalton are no different. Housed in a sculptural, all-glass-façade building designed by world-renowned architect Henry N. Cobb, each residence features floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of downtown Boston, the Charles River, Boston Harbour and beyond. Inside, Blue de Savoie polished marble tops the kitchen counters, 5-inch-wide American walnut planks line the floors and natural light streams in from towering walls of gently curving glass. At 61 storeys tall, this is Boston’s – and, in fact, New England’s – tallest residential building. And the penthouses that line the top make the most of their aerial address with a 570-square-foot, double-height terrace complete with an outdoor fireplace.

The vacation never ends at Four Seasons Private Residences Sharm El Sheikh. This haven on the Red Sea is surrounded by tropical gardens, and it’s a matter of steps from the front door to a private stretch of golden shoreline – and some of the most renowned diving spots in the world. Start the day with a morning swim beneath swaying palms, or greet the sun with coffee on the home’s private poolside terrace – the gardens and outdoor living spaces at each Arabesque-inspired residence are ideal settings for dinner parties, family gatherings and quiet moments of contemplation. Residents have access to the world-class amenities and services at Four Seasons Resort Sharm El Sheikh: Savour local flavours at five new dining options, pamper body and soul at two luxurious spas, and discover an underwater kingdom during a dive with a guide from the PADI Dive Centre. These residences – and the Resort’s amenities – are designed for effortless living.
