All exterior work has been completed on the final building in the first phase of the Sonesta Jaco Resort, heralding the grand opening of the largest and most luxurious high-rise resort on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific Coast.
The eco-conscious site plan’s modern, curvilinear design stands out against the more traditional styled buildings in the area. Influenced by the lines of the Sonesta cruise ships, the structures’ curves also bring to mind the verdant foothills that provide a backdrop to the popular beach town of Jaco.
This first phase, featuring nearly 200 one- and two-bedroom suites as well as penthouse condo and hotel units, is scheduled to be completed by year’s end, in time for the resort’s 2009 Grand Opening.
Sonesta Jaco Resort is a contemporary, 13-story all-suite resort featuring whirlpools in every suite and panoramic views of the central Pacific coast and tropical rain forests. The resort is just 90 minutes from the Juan Santamaria International airport, and mere moments from downtown Jaco.
On-site amenities will include international cuisine restaurants, a casino and several bars (including an in-pool bar). There will also be a world-class spa offering everything from massages to hair treatments, and a five-star beach club with convenient shuttles from the main resort.
The Sonesta Group includes properties throughout the Americas and in Egypt, as well as operating a line of cruise ships.
