Enlightened Casita

Completed in February of 2023, this project was designed by the owner, Jennifer Hansen and Award Winning Architect Donald Loria of Prendas Loria, and built by Garza Construction. The result is spectacular! You will truly be enlightened by your stay and take life-changing memories with you.

Villa Enlightened Casita is located just across the main road from Bodhi Tree Yoga Resort and up the private drive. You can easily walk to Bodhi Tree gym and property for yoga, pilates, breathwork and other classes. We are also just a short walk to Organico Market that has everything you need and Café de Paris that has a delightful bakery. There is a magical walking path that brings you to Café de Paris or down into town close to the beach. The beach walk is 15 minutes but we recommend renting quads to get around easily to all beaches with your surfboards.

Villa Enlightened’s Casita tropical modern vibe is designed to bring the outside in. The massive glass walls allow you to absorb the jungle and ocean view on all sides. Every room has a fabulous view. The casita has beautiful concrete floors and local teak ceilings. The décor is minimalist because the focus is on the beauty that surrounds. With solar panels capturing the sun’s energy, a bionest for water treatment and repurposing (for landscape irrigation), as well as composting and recycling opportunities, and the exclusive use of biodegradable cleaning products, you can wallow in luxury with the comfort that you are making the smallest possible footprint on this treasured jungle community.
