Villa La Punta 20 was featured in the October 2009 issue of Architectural Digest.  Renowned architect, Alex Possenbacher, envisioned two elliptical main wings for the Villa – both two stories — that resemble a seashell.  One wing contains the main living space including the family and media room, dining and kitchen; the other contains the bedroom areas of the main house.  The curvilinear features are also reflected in the winding entrance driveway and the spiral exterior stairway leading to the second floor.  Handpicked antiques and art pieces, sourced from Mexico, warm the house while enhancing its modernity.

In 2017-18, the current owners embarked on a major renovation to update the palapa, patio and pool, interior spaces, and entertainment areas, while ensuring optimal privacy and security for family and guests.  Added features include:  handcrafted gates and stone work; refurbished patios with artisanal chiseled cement and rock designs; expansive entertainment area with imported sand alongside ocean edge; hidden circular stairway access to rooftop lounge and firepit, among other upgrades.  The bronze sculpture “Hearts Unbound” (aka Whale Tails) by Bob Wilfong was also added to greet guests upon entering the circular glorieta.

The result is a beautifully designed, yet comfortable family beach hacienda that evokes the modernity, spirit and soul of Mexico.
