Casa Leria | Taller Alberto Calleja

Casa Leria is a luxury beachfront property on Oaxaca’s Pacific Coast that was designed and built by the award-winning architect, Alberto Calleja. Offering amazing ocean views, it sits within the grounds of an ecological reserve, which is home to a wide variety of wildlife and miles of pristine beaches. The entire property was handcrafted with organic elements native to the Puerto Escondido region.

Casa Leria is a unique project that combines contemporary architecture and design with nature. The geometric elements of the property smoothly interact with the local environment, including its diverse vegetation. Based on a Japanese construction technique that creates a unique and clean feeling of minimalism, Casa Leria is simple yet sophisticated.

Casa Leria comprises a living room, dining room and open-plan kitchen covered by a 180 sqm palapa. Adjacent (and just a few steps from the beach) is a 17x5-metre infinity pool and a wooden deck, as well as an outdoor grill area. In addition, there is a three-storey entertainment villa with a TV room, a massage/gym area and a rooftop.

There are five separate sleeping quarters connected by wooden hallways, each of which has air conditioning and a ceiling fan, as well as an ensuite bathroom, dressing room and closet. All of the bedrooms are welcoming and spacious, with large doors that open onto the gardens and ocean views. There are two king-size bedrooms, two with two queen-size beds and another with two queen-size beds and two single beds. In total, Casa Leria can accommodate up to 18 people in absolute comfort.
