The beachfront resort and residential community is set to debut
in 2027 with world-class amenities, natural beauty and culturally
immersive experiences.
MILL
VALLEY, Calif., Dec. 3, 2024
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Auberge Resorts Collection, the
award-winning portfolio of one-of-a-kind luxury hotels, resorts and
residences, has been selected to manage Moncayo, Auberge Resorts
Collection, a new beachfront resort and exclusive collection of
Resort Villas and Private Residences set within Moncayo, the
1,100-acre community on Puerto
Rico's pristine eastern shoreline. Moncayo is led by leading
real estate firms, Juniper Capital and Capital United, and renowned
investors and philanthropists, José E. Feliciano and Kwanza
Jones.
A transformative sanctuary and effortless gateway to the diverse
splendors of Puerto Rico and the
Caribbean Sea, Moncayo will enrich the lives of guests, residents
and locals alike. A natural paradise between the jungle-cloaked
mountains of El Yunque National Forest and Puerto del Rey, the Caribbean's largest marina, Moncayo will offer
endless opportunities for exploration and adventure when it debuts
in 2027.
"We are honored to have been chosen to manage this remarkable
Caribbean property that will set
new standards for luxury in Puerto
Rico and globally," said Dan
Friedkin, Chairman, Auberge Resorts Collection. "Moncayo is
an exciting addition to our collection of hotels, resorts and
residences, and it aligns perfectly with our continued expansion
into the most alluring destinations in the world."
Primely positioned as a boaters' paradise, residents and guests
will enjoy easy day trips to the Spanish, U.S. and British Virgin Islands, and beyond. A
constantly evolving, Auberge-curated program of experiences will
reveal the intricate tapestry of island life, its incredible
biodiversity and intriguing culture. From dawn meditations to
guided jungle hikes, diving and sport fishing adventures to
art-fueled nights alive with salsa rhythms, every moment will
invite engagement, connection and the making of unforgettable
memories.
"We are delighted to expand Auberge's global portfolio in the
Caribbean's most exciting and
dynamic new luxury destination, Moncayo," said Christian Clerc, President and CEO, Auberge
Resorts Collection. "The resort will provide one-of-a-kind
experiences that will immerse guests and residents in Puerto Rico's natural beauty and cultural
richness, serving as the heartbeat of this thriving new community.
The villas and residences will offer the rare opportunity to call
this captivating destination home."
With its hill-cradled, beachfront setting, Moncayo, Auberge
Resorts Collection will be its own vibrant private enclave within
the exclusive Moncayo residential community. Every Guest Suite,
Resort Villa and Branded Private Residence will offer unobstructed
views of picturesque Isla de Ramos,
Vieques and Culebra in the Caribbean Sea's azure expanse. Conceived
by internationally acclaimed design practice, Studio Paolo Ferrari,
the 68-suite and 15-villa resort, with its unrivaled lifestyle
amenities, will rest right on the shore, where pure white sands are
lapped by the crystal-clear waters of multiple marine reserves. The
Branded Private Residences will be nature-framed havens claiming
incredible open vistas from loftier, hillside locales—still just
moments from the beach and resort amenities.
Framing mesmerizing sea views, each of the resort's Guest Suites
will connect seamlessly with the beauty of Moncayo's surrounding
nature. Set within their own private gardens with water features,
plunge pools, landscaped decks and cabanas, the guest suites will
transition almost imperceptibly from the outdoor realm to serene,
light-filled interiors. Pure, natural materials will inspire
tranquility in generous living and dining spaces and one or two
bedrooms, while unique cultural touches and design details will
evoke a distinct sense of place.
The three- and four-bedroom, free-standing Resort Villas will
offer the same luxurious, oceanfront living experience of
unparalleled comfort and refinement over two expansive levels.
Perched above the beachfront, each will deliver awe-inducing sea
views from indoor and outdoor kitchen, dining and entertainment
areas, opening onto infinity swimming and spa pools. Along with the
convenience of turnkey, lock-and-leave ownership, Resort Villa
owners will also benefit from optional participation in the resort
rental program when not in residence.
Designed for full-time living with private amenities and
comprehensive concierge and management services, the fully
appointed Private Residences will be expansive homes offering
everything a single family might need. Terraced masterpieces of
tropical design—options will include first-floor residences with
walk-up and walk-out access, second-floor residences with
wraparound balconies and premium third-story penthouses with
rooftop pools and garden terraces. All will boast generous outdoor
spaces, chef's kitchens, open-plan layouts and the finest finishes
and furnishings. Residents will enjoy access to their own
Clubhouse, as well as dedicated fitness and wellness facilities.
All property owners will have the opportunity to join the
Caribbean's premier private club,
The Moncayo Ocean Club.
The resort itself will be a lushly landscaped oasis. A series of
oversized, natural-edge swimming pools will cascade lagoon-like to
the beachfront via ocean-view cabanas and other spaces designed for
gathering and reflection, indoors and out. A diverse collection of
dining and events venues will range from exquisite hilltop
restaurants and a signature rooftop bar to casual, waterside
eateries and lounges. These will celebrate local and global
cuisines and host engaging pop-ups and live entertainment,
establishing Moncayo as the region's most inspiring culinary and
social capital. The resort's destination Auberge Spa will draw
inspiration from the island's tropical pharmacopeia and
respectfully honor Taíno healing traditions to craft personalized
wellness journeys enhancing vitality and optimizing wellbeing.
"We are beyond excited to partner with Auberge Resorts
Collection. As passionate advocates for Puerto Rico and its people, we believe that
Auberge's commitment to luxury and community aligns perfectly with
our vision for Moncayo," said José E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones.
"We're confident that together, we can create an extraordinary and
authentic destination that celebrates the island's rich culture,
stunning beauty and vibrant spirit."
The resort will also provide guests privileged access to the
wider Moncayo community's exceptional amenities. These have been
conceived by global architectural icon, Hart Howerton, to foster a
lifetime of longevity-enhancing community and cultural connections.
Moncayo's village center will be a thriving hub, its restaurants
and market supplied by a 100-acre organic farm. Vital to the
sustainable nature of Moncayo and the wellbeing of its inhabitants,
the farm will champion eco-conscious, regenerative agriculture to
put the freshest, most wholesome ingredients on every table. Beyond
the farm, a 400-acre nature reserve will fringe the championship
Mackenzie & Ebert-designed golf course. World-class
infrastructure will include a K-12 international school and
comprehensive medical and wellness centers, while an array of sport
and social clubs will engage every age and interest.
