Modern New Ecoloxury Community Breaks Ground in Costa Rica

Los Angeles, CA, September 04, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Rich in biodiversity brimming with excitement and unparalleled in gorgeous views, Costa Rica is one of the hottest destinations for travelers and expatriates. One Los Angeles-based eco-luxury lifestyle brand is taking advantage of Costa Rica’s natural appeal by creating Kalia, four blissfully modern, eco-friendly luxury communities. Nestled among pristine bluffs overlooking Costa Rica’s breathtaking Pacific coast in some of the most desirable locations on the Nicoya Peninsula, Kalia is poised and ready to make a name for itself in the world of luxury eco-living.

Kalia’s entrance into the upper echelons of eco-savvy society is heralded by the groundbreaking for its first three of nine distinct sustainable model homes: Breeze, Mist and Lush. The Breeze, Mist and Lush models include 3 bedrooms and range in size from a generous 2550 square feet to over 2900 square feet. Open floor plans boast floor to ceiling windows, multiple pools and over 2100 square feet of outdoor living and entertaining space in the form of sleek decks, balconies and native landscaped yards. Appealingly, each Kalia model home offers nearly as much outdoor living space as indoor space, offering residents the full enjoyment of a true Costa Rican indoor/outdoor living experience. Cool breezes, stunning ocean views and warm tropical temperatures are meant to be enjoyed outdoors, and now they can, without leaving your Kalia home.

Every residence in Kalia’s community includes strategically located windows and doors to maximize cross ventilation, striking green roofing systems, special water features to cool the home, partial solar energy and a gray water recycling system to help the locally landscaped plants thrive. Kalia’s uncompromising commitment to eco-luxury continues inside their residences with eco-friendly paint, sustainable building materials and sexy modern furniture fabricated from natural, environmentally responsible materials. Residents benefit by enjoying the rare combination of living in harmony with Costa Rican nature and living it up with the Kalia community’s resort amenities. Kalia is for people who want to live a completely green, eco-responsible life without sacrificing an ounce of luxury. It’s a lifestyle that is exquisitely green with an uncompromisingly luxurious setting.

Upon completion, Kalia’s four eco-villages (Ruby Sky, Emerald Woods, Black Beauty and Diamond Cove) are planned to include linear “green-belt” pedestrian systems, lush native landscapes, gourmet restaurants, boutique hotels, golf & tennis, shopping areas, children activity centers, spas and fitness centers. The goal in building Kalia is to create enticing resort-style luxury living for individuals who want to own a home in Costa Rica, and, in doing so, to redefine the modern standard for sustainable luxury development.
