A collaboration between DBR Dorado Ventures, PRISA Group, and Marriott International, La Cala is designed by acclaimed Puerto Rican architects Segundo Cardona and Maryse Nicole Menendez. The homes marry contemporary coastal architecture with sweeping ocean views and rich natural surroundings.
Each estate ranges from 14,600 to over 21,000 square feet, featuring floor-to-ceiling glass pavilions, private infinity pools, outdoor kitchens, wine cellars, and full smart home systems. Owners enjoy exclusive access to the amenities of Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, including championship golf courses, Spa Botánico, and award-winning oceanfront restaurants.
Construction is already underway on five residences as part of Phase I, with two already under contract. The first homes are scheduled for completion in late 2025.
