From the City Beautiful to the Pacific Crest: A Hurricane-Free Mountain Sanctuary for the Coral Gables Elite.
For the residents of Coral Gables, life is defined by Mediterranean elegance, lush Banyan-lined avenues, and the quiet prestige of enclaves like Gables Estates. You are accustomed to the highest standards of gated security and architectural integrity. However, as the Florida coast faces increasingly volatile hurricane seasons, the search for a stable, high-elevation retreat has become a priority. Macaw Crest Estates offers the perfect counterpoint to the Atlantic lowlands: a 1,500-foot mountain sanctuary that provides the same level of exclusivity you demand at home, but with a dramatic Pacific backdrop.
Macaw Crest is a limited collection of just 26 lots, ensuring a level of scarcity and privacy that mirrors the most sought-after addresses in Miami-Dade. While Florida offers coastal beauty, our estate provides a cooler, mountain-air climate and panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean that are simply impossible to find in the Sunshine State. Located at the entrance to Costa Rica's second-tallest waterfall, the property combines raw natural majesty with the sophisticated infrastructure of a modern gated community.
Logistically, the transition from the 'City Beautiful' to your mountain villa is seamless. With frequent direct flights from Miami International Airport (MIA) to San José (SJO), you can leave your Coral Gables office in the morning and be watching the sunset over the Pacific by late afternoon. This is not just a second home; it is a strategic asset for those seeking a secure, non-hurricane-prone sanctuary without sacrificing the tropical lifestyle and luxury amenities they have spent a lifetime perfecting.
