Private Golf Residences: Living a Golfer’s Dream

Posted on May 3, 2024August 15, 2025 by Jennifer Sanchez

For golf enthusiasts, living on a golf course is the ultimate dream. Even if golf is not your sport of choice, being surrounded by sprawling green spaces and the amenities that come with a golf course community can be enticing. What’s more, those But these perfectly tended lawns offer more than just beautiful views. Property values are typically higher for golf course homes and tend to retain that value over time. Social opportunities and family activities abound, with on-site amenities fostering connection through restaurant experiences, sports offerings and nature adventures.

Four Seasons Private Residences give you the opportunity to access some of the best golf courses – and golf instructors – in the world. Located in idyllic destinations like Cabo Del Sol, Belize, the Bahamas and Las Vegas, these unique communities put championship-level courses right at your doorstep, along with a breadth of off-the-course amenities the whole family can enjoy.

Play on a Cabo Del Sol golf masterpiece

When you look out onto the awe-inspiring mix of desert, mountain and sea found at the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula, it’s easy to see why Jack Nicklaus called this the “best piece of golf property I’ve ever seen.” He was, of course, talking about the location for his highly acclaimed Cove Club Course (formerly the Ocean Course), which has been recognized as one of the world’s Top 100 golf courses by “Golf Digest.”

The 9-hole reversible course is the centrepiece of the exclusive Cove Club, where owners at Four Seasons Private Residences Cabo San Lucas at Cabo Del Sol gather to experience one of the area’s most swimmable beaches, sea- and farm-to-table dining, an abundance of land and water sports, and exclusive access to the course itself. Feel like going straight from the beach to the golf course? No problem. And no need to pack your shoes either – you can play barefoot. Be sure to keep an eye out for the specially equipped VW Kombi cruising the course offering up signature refreshments, or stop by the Airstream Bambi located feet from the waves on the 8th tee box for a mid-course taco break. You’ll also find two Chocitas (which translates to “little shacks” in English) – one after the 4th green and one before the 15th tee – each offering curated sweet and savoury treats as well as thirst-quenching delights, adding to the authentic experience in Cabo Del Sol.

For both avid golfers and those who are new to the sport, one of the most rewarding things to do is to spend some time with Cove Club’s renowned golf instructors, Erik Evans and Carly Schneider. Having worked with tour players, professional athletes and corporate executives, they are among the top PGA Teaching Professionals in the world. With personalized instruction, have fun while taking your game to the next level, knowing you’re in good hands.

Horizon-to-horizon views on this Caye Chapel, Belize golf course

“I can’t think of anywhere else in the world you can do what you’re doing in Caye Chapel,” said Greg Norman, champion pro golfer and co-designer of the White Shark Golf Course at Four Seasons Private Residences Caye Chapel, Belize. “The owners today should consider themselves lucky; they bought a piece of paradise.”

Caye Chapel is a one-of-a-kind paradise. This private island resort and residential community offers six miles of pristine coastline surrounded by brilliant blue water, coral reefs and world-class dive sites, including the Great Blue Hole. It’s also the very first private island in the Americas managed by Four Seasons, and as such, it features signature services and an abundance of exclusive amenities. Residents of Caye Chapel will have access to an organic farm and restaurant, a dedicated adventure centre for kids, a full gym and sports complex, an open-air theatre, and a Golf Academy, just to name a few.

For the White Shark Golf Course – which takes its name from Norman’s own moniker “the Great White Shark” – Norman designed a 10-hole course that meanders from horizon to horizon, highlighting stunning ocean views at every turn. “You want to make a player going on a golf course you design to remember every hole,” said Norman. “At Caye Chapel, it’s the Caribbean Sea, it’s the barrier reef system, it’s that fantastic change of water colour as you look out as the sun moves from the east to midday to the west – everything changes with the light.”

A sense of belonging in a Las Vegas golf community

For many golfers, the sense of comradery and connections made while on the course are major draws of the sport. Residential communities with golf courses at their cores often share this focus on social connection. Just 15 miles from the Las Vegas Strip in Henderson, Nevada, MacDonald Highlands is one of those communities. Four Seasons Private Residences Las Vegas – the latest addition to the Four Seasons collection of standalone Private Residences – will soon welcome MacDonald Highlands’ newest residents into the fold.

Residents at Four Seasons will have the opportunity to gain exclusive access to the members-only championship 18-hole golf course, swimming and tennis facilities, and an array of indoor and outdoor activities at the nearby DragonRidge Country Club. And that’s in addition to the abundance of resort-style amenities that owners already have at their disposal.

Entertain friends with a chef-curated dinner on your residence’s private terrace or with a family picnic in one of the multi-level pool’s cabanas. You can also invite your fellow golfers to join you for a round at DragonRidge, then break down the day over light bites and sundowners. A favourite of pro players and amateurs, this course invites golfers of all skill levels to try their hand at its scenic mountainside holes offering panoramic views of the glittering Las Vegas Strip.

Your own tropical paradise in the Bahamas

Looking for a challenge? Residents at The Ocean Club, Four Seasons Residences, Bahamas, enjoy access to the nearby Ocean Club Golf Course. Designed by Tom Weiskopf, this 18-hole, par-72 course stretches over 7,100 yards on Paradise Island. The crosswinds here can be a challenge for even the most experienced players – but that’s all part of the fun.

At The Ocean Club, it’s easy to make golf a part of your everyday. Stop in for private lessons from the PGA-certified instructors at the Ocean Club Golf Academy, get outfitted with the latest gear at the pro shop, and join friends for post-game drinks at one of The Ocean Club’s beachfront restaurants.

When you own one of the private, turnkey luxury residences managed by Four Seasons on Paradise Island, you’ll also have access to sublime residents-only amenities such as a private Lobby Lounge featuring a bar for entertaining as well as a store for light provisions, an owner’s library, co-working centre, private dining room, and a private wine and cigar cellar, along with round-the-clock concierge service.

Peace of mind no matter where you live

Just like the best golf courses, all homes require attention and care. Whether it’s your primary or secondary residence, when you live with Four Seasons, you can come and go knowing full well that your home is in excellent hands. From maintenance and housekeeping when you’re away to securing tee times, making dinner reservations and stocking your kitchen with your favourite items when you return, you’ll always have a dedicated residential team on call for your every need. It’s worry-free homeownership at its most intuitive.

Feel at Home in the City with Four Seasons Private Residences

Posted on March 4, 2024August 15, 2025 by Jennifer Sanchez

No two people experience a city in the exact same way. One person’s New Orleans may be defined by jazz and music festivals, while another’s may be centred on Creole cuisine. Your image of Kyoto may be of historic pagodas and pink cherry blossoms, while another’s may be filled with contemporary art. Featuring coveted addresses in sought-after neighbourhoods, locally inspired design elements, world-class amenities created specifically for residential use and deeply personalized service, these Four Seasons Private Residences in Minneapolis, New Orleans, Bengaluru and Kyoto capture the unique energy of each city and bring it home to you.

Downtown living in Minneapolis

Set atop the city’s only five-star hotel, Four Seasons Private Residences Minneapolis features a carefully curated selection of 34 one-of-a-kind homes. “Our private residences are designed to reflect the unique atmosphere of downtown Minneapolis,” says Director of Residences Mark Syputa. Residents can choose between two distinct design palettes: Nordic and Urban. The Nordic palette features a clean, bright aesthetic that embraces the city’s Scandinavian roots, while the Urban palette offers an authentic Minneapolis feel with herringbone walnut floors and dark granite finishes. Whichever palette you choose, every residence offers stunning downtown views through towering windows that also serve to fill the spaces with an abundance of natural light.

From a 24-hour front desk team to a community and lifestyle lead in charge of planning unique events, we’ve thought of everything to ensure our residents have everything they need at their fingertips – we’re always just a chat away. – Mark Syputa, Director of Residences

Because the residences are located above Four Seasons Hotel Minneapolis, owners here can enjoy all the perks of hotel living while still having the privacy of a standalone home. “Our residents are able to enjoy the perfect balance of work and play in our mixed-use building,” says Syputa. “They can easily grab a quick bite at Socca Café before heading to work, relax at the end of the day in our indoor or outdoor pool, indulge in a spa treatment, or unwind at our fourth-floor lounge and terrace.” In addition to enjoying the five-star amenities, residents can also count on a dedicated residential team for around-the-clock service and care. “From a 24-hour front desk team to our Community and Lifestyle Lead Senna Szykulski in charge of planning unique events, we’ve thought of everything to ensure our residents have everything they need at their fingertips – we’re always just a chat away,” says Syputa.

Given its prime location in the heart of the business district at the corner of Hennepin and Washington Avenues, Four Seasons Private Residences Minneapolis is surrounded by a vibrant community that is easily explored on foot, with many attractions including various music venues, the State Theatre and the Target Center – home to the NBA’s Minnesota Timberwolves and the WNBA’s Minnesota Lynx – all just a quick stroll (or Skyway walk) away. And, the knowledgeable residential team is always ready with personalized recommendations for each resident. “Our team loves to recommend a full day of activities,” notes Syputa. Looking for the best latte in the city? That’ll be at Dogwood Café. How about a restaurant suggestion for date night? Try the rustic-chic Spoon and Stable or have the team book you a table at Zelo. “This trendy spot is known for its Italian-inspired cuisine that incorporates local ingredients,” says Syputa. Whatever you’re in the mood for, the residential Concierge can book you the perfect
table.

A lively riverfront oasis in New Orleans

The energy of New Orleans is beautifully distinct: the sounds of jazz heard around every corner, charming streetcars that make exploring the city a breeze and some of America’s top chefs serving up unforgettable meals. It’s a city that’s constantly evolving, using its melting pot of influences to create something entirely new.

Set within an iconic 34-storey tower completed in 1968 to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the city’s founding, Four Seasons Private Residences New Orleans gives you unmatched access to the famed Crescent City. Designed by the celebrated architect Edward Durell Stone, the building itself is a mid-century icon, occupying two waterfront acres at the end of Canal Street on the banks of the Mississippi River.

Inside the building, each one-, two-, and three- bedroom home (81 in total) invites you to create your own private haven. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide uninterrupted views of the Garden District, Canal Street, the surrounding Central Business District, the French Quarter or downriver to the Gulf. Residents can enjoy quiet moments in the private residential garden or gather with friends at the Private Residence Club lounge that overlooks the Mississippi River. You can also head downstairs to Four Seasons Hotel New Orleans for dinner at Miss River or drinks beneath the twinkling lights of Chandelier Bar. The Hotel’s full-service Spa, state-of-the-art fitness centre, and outdoor pool and terrace are also an extension of your life at Four Seasons Private Residences New Orleans.

When you’re ready to explore the town, the Morial Convention Center, Audubon Aquarium, Harrah’s Casino, Spanish Plaza and French Quarter are all within walking distance. Hop in your vehicle at the dedicated porte cochère entrance before heading out to your favourite
jazz club or local bistro, or let the residential team offer some personalized recommendations for an evening out.

An urban sanctuary in Bengaluru

Spread across two 30-storey towers, Four Seasons Private Residences Bengaluru at Embassy ONE offers effortless living in the centre of India’s “Silicon Valley.” Each one- to five-bedroom private residence feels like a personal sanctuary, providing a quiet and welcoming refuge from the city’s fast-paced energy just steps away. You’ll find an exclusive collection of three- and four-bedroom residences in the North Tower, complete with tall ceilings, bespoke details and elegant finishes. For those wanting to be a little closer to the action, the residences in the South Tower offer bold, soirée-friendly layouts located above Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru at Embassy ONE. In addition to providing access to all of the Hotel amenities, the South Tower is where you’ll also find resident-only amenities such as a private cinema, game room, residents lounge and a climate-controlled wine chamber.

“The lush gardens, well-equipped gym and temperature-controlled pool collectively form an urban oasis within the bustling cityscape, reinforcing the feeling of a sanctuary,” says Assistant Director of Residences Vipindas Ramadas. And, while there are a variety of world-class amenities on-site, the Four Seasons commitment to enhance quality of living extends beyond that. “Understanding the diverse preferences of each resident allows us to tailor experiences that resonate with them, ensuring a true sense of belonging within our community,” says Ramadas. “We offer chef service on call, curated menus, personalized event catering, laundry services, housekeeping on call, and regular maintenance and upkeep – and to top it off, our expert concierge team is available 24 hours a day.”

Life in such a dynamic city is always exciting, and the residential team likes to keep residents informed about local events through quarterly newsletters and daily recommendations. “Our team aims to not only simplify our residents’ daily lives but also to serve as an invaluable resource in guiding residents to explore the rich cultural tapestry of Bengaluru, fostering a strong connection between them and the happenings in the city.”

History comes alive in Kyoto

Widely considered one of the world’s most beautiful cities, Kyoto has many faces. Pale shades of pink paint the city in the spring during cherry blossom season, while the bright red leaves of Japanese maples blanket the temples and gardens in autumn. Nestled within an 800-year-old ikeniwa garden pond in the historic temple district, Four Seasons Private Residences Kyoto provides an extraordinary place to experience it all.

“Our 57 residences incorporate old-world charm and tradition with contemporary design and modern conveniences,” says Director of Hotel Residences Rahul Mamgain. “Our pond garden makes our property quite unique in connecting residents to the roots of our former Imperial capital.” The residences themselves are designed to follow the concept of kutsuogi – the Japanese art of relaxation. The use of washi paper enhances elements of light and shadow, and tatami rooms with bamboo woven floors reference elements found in traditional Japanese houses, while the colour purple – which represents the city’s rich heritage and culture – is also incorporated throughout the entire property.

Wander through the expertly landscaped trails and walkways along the water’s edge as you head over to Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto, which also shares the historic grounds. Residents have exclusive access to the dining, spa and wellness amenities at the Hotel in addition to unique experiences curated by Mamgain and his team. A traditional rickshaw tour, a private Maiko performance and a traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony at the Shakusui-Tei Tea House are just a few of the unique Kyoto experiences the team can arrange. “Discover local Japanese delicacies and crafts in the alleys of Kawaramachi or explore the many UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as Kiyomizu-dera Temple or Nijo Castle,” recommends Mamgain. When you live with Four Seasons, the entire city becomes your playground, with expert guides on hand to lead the way.

A seamless city lifestyle

Living at Four Seasons means you have a dedicated residential team on call, ready to take care of home maintenance, housekeeping, security, culinary requests or making dinner reservations at your favourite restaurant. It’s worry-free homeownership at its most intuitive, ensuring complete peace of mind behind the scenes while providing exceptional service whenever you need it. Life in the city is effortless with Four Seasons on your side.

An Iconic Landmark in the Making:
Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul

Posted on January 30, 2024August 15, 2025 by Jennifer Sanchez

Inspired by three millennia of history, the soon-to-open Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul is set to become one of the most sought-after addresses in an already iconic city. Combining legendary Four Seasons service, world-class amenities and an effortless homeownership experience, this standalone development will set a new standard for luxury living right in the heart of Istanbul. Join us as we take a look inside and uncover the inspiration behind the exciting new development.

A dynamic neighbourhood filled with history

Located on the European side where the districts of Ulus, Etiler and Levent come together, Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul offers effortless luxury living in a dynamic and culture-rich neighbourhood. Think of gazing out over the mighty Bosphorus from a streetside café nearby, or stopping in a fashionable boutique for your next unique find. Strolling along the waterfront streets of Bebek, or exploring the hills of Etiler, where the city’s most notable culinary names await – all will be within easy reach.

“Our project is designed to integrate harmoniously with Istanbul’s vibrant atmosphere, conveniently situated near Istanbul’s prominent shopping and dining districts,” says Mesut Toprak, Chairman of the Tay Group, the development partner collaborating with Four Seasons. “We prioritize striking a delicate balance between [helping residents] engage in city activities, while safeguarding family privacy and serenity.” The goal, he says, is for both local and international residents to feel a connection to Istanbul through location, architecture, design and amenities.

This connection is further amplified by the personalized service that Four Seasons is known for. From making dinner reservations and stocking your kitchen with your favourite local pastries, to picking up your custom order from a designer shop nearby, the dedicated Four Seasons team will go the extra mile to make sure you feel right at home.

Design that merges the past, present and future

The residences themselves spread across four blocks in three ultra-modern towers and one low-rise building. A curated mix of Garden Suites, Apartment Residences, Penthouses and a Sky Loft, the 82 homes will have open-concept living spaces perfect for entertaining and relaxation in equal measure.

We view the architectural designs and materials not solely as historical tributes; they represent the ongoing sophistication of Istanbul’s urban landscape. – Mesut Toprak, Chairman of the Tay Group

Because no two Four Seasons residences are exactly alike, you can expect each residence to be fully customized. “We provide 46 distinctive floor plans catering to diverse lifestyles and preferences. This includes everything from expansive six-bedroom family apartments to minimalist two-bedroom urban living spaces that prioritize comfort without compromise,” Toprak says. “Nestled in one of Istanbul’s most prestigious areas, our apartments reflect the essence of both traditional Instanbulite and modern urban living. They are thoughtfully designed to provide rare urban sanctuaries, featuring terraces and gardens that present homeowners with a chance to relish their own private green spaces amid the urban landscape – a cornerstone of our design philosophy.”

Given the project’s iconic location, Toprak says, its architecture can be seen as a continuation of the residential architectural styles that emerged in the nearby Nişantaşı and Beyoğlu (formerly Pera) districts during the 19th century. However, “we view the architectural designs and materials not solely as historical tributes; they represent the ongoing sophistication of Istanbul’s urban landscape.”

Those with an eye for architecture, he notes, will find themselves immersed in detecting how these elements intertwine, showcasing the rich tapestry of Istanbul’s past and present.

Views from above

Most of the residences will fall within two categories: Garden Suites and Apartment Residences. The Garden Suites will provide the option of single-floor or duplex homes, each featuring private garden terraces accessible through floor-to-ceiling sliding windows. The Apartment Residences will range from two-bedroom to five-bedroom apartments, offering flexibility and comfort made to suit families or those looking for a luxurious Istanbul pied-à-terre.

Set atop each of the three residential towers will be the Penthouse Residences: ultra-exclusive homes featuring 7-metre-high (23-foot-high) ceilings and living areas focused on an expansive outdoor terrace. The primary bedroom on the upper floor will boast panoramic views and a distinctive crown attribute. Floor-to-ceiling windows will drench each Penthouse in natural light throughout the day, creating an impressive and tranquil space that showcases stunning city vistas.

The other crown jewel will be the Sky Loft Residence, perched on the low-rise building in the centre of the complex. Characterized by high-sloped ceilings and skylight windows in both the bedroom and living areas, the Sky Loft is designed to capitalize on the feeling of spaciousness. The interiors of this bright and airy residence optimize the interplay of space and light, augmented by innovative glass ceilings that maximize city views for an inspiring environment year round.

A sustainable and high-tech approach

Energy-efficient buildings, sustainable materials and green living are a priority at all Four Seasons properties, and they also rank high on the priority list for homebuyers. The team behind the residential property in Istanbul understands the crucial role sustainability holds not only in various aspects of real estate development but also in enhancing the well-being, productivity and overall satisfaction of residents and the community.

“Our commitment to sustainability is at the forefront of our design philosophy. In our quest to create living spaces that nurture both residents and the environment, we have integrated a multitude of eco-friendly features. Our project proudly meets the rigorous standards set by the LEED certification,” says Toprak. LEED – Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – is the world’s foremost green building rating system. “By prioritizing energy efficiency, optimizing air circulation, implementing rainwater collection and purification systems, and mitigating light and sound pollution, these residences work to benefit the environment, society and investors alike,” says Toprak.

In addition to intelligent building design, the residences will feature environmentally friendly VRF air conditioning and state-of-the-art under-floor heating, plus noise-cancelling technology and full insulation between residences. The complex itself will feature a parking structure with electric vehicle charging stations and advanced automation designed for 21st-century living.

An extension of your living space

When you live with Four Seasons, you’re not just getting an amazing home, you also gain access into an exclusive lifestyle. As a standalone property – meaning one that’s not connected to a hotel or resort – Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul will be home to an array of world-class amenities tailored specifically for residential use.

“Our intent is for residents to enjoy the shared amenities as a seamless extension of their homes – an extra kitchen, a treatment room and a cinema room equipped with a superior audiovisual system,” says Toprak. “We believe this goal aligns perfectly with Four Seasons hospitality standards.”

Self-care is made easy at the state-of-the-art spa featuring a sauna, steam rooms and a heated indoor swimming pool perfect for morning swims surrounded by natural light. You can also relax on the outdoor garden deck, spend some time in the fully equipped fitness centre or the private yoga and Pilates studio, or opt for a relaxing spa treatment in the privacy of your residence.

A golf simulator suite, stylish multi-purpose lounges, and private cinema furnished with luxe leather seating and leading-edge AV technology will be perfect for days when you’re hosting guests or looking for fun. The family-friendly residential complex will also boast a bright and well-stocked kids’ playroom, as well as a young adult room featuring everything from table tennis and chess to video games to keep young residents and their friends entertained.

“The common spaces were meticulously crafted to evoke a residential ambience, seamlessly extending the essence of the apartments,” shares Toprak. “Our focus was on creating a fluid transition from the entrance to the amenities, inviting homeowners to enjoy the luxury of amenities reminiscent of their own homes.”

A history of excellence

Four Seasons has set the benchmark for hospitality in Istanbul for more than 30 years. In partnership with the Tay Group, both Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus and Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet were meticulously restored to become the renowned luxury hotels in Istanbul that they are today.

“As we expand our standalone residences in priority markets worldwide, Istanbul presents the perfect opportunity to build on the success and reputation of our renowned hotels at Sultanahmet and the Bosphorus, creating a distinct lifestyle experience with the privacy and comforts of home,” says Bart Carnahan, President, Global Business Development, Portfolio Management and Residential. “This new project is a natural extension of our partnership with Tay Group, and we are proud to collaborate once again as we offer residents the ultimate living experience in Istanbul.”

To create a truly seamless living experience, Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul will be managed by a dedicated team, including a Director of Residences and Residential Concierge, that will focus on delivering the legendary service that Four Seasons is known for. Imagine dinner parties with tailored menus prepared by a Four Seasons chef, unexpected birthday surprises or your favourite flowers arranged on your table to brighten up a rainy day, all done with genuine care. At Four Seasons, your residence is an extension of you, so no detail is too small or too big when it comes to creating a home and a life you love.

What Does It Mean to Live With Four Seasons?

Posted on November 30, 2023May 15, 2024 by Jennifer Sanchez

With a 360-degree approach that’s uniquely tailored to each and every resident, life at
Four Seasons Private Residences can often be described with one word: seamless. From the unparalleled service to the expert management to the beautiful homes themselves, Four Seasons has perfected the art of a curated lifestyle. So how do they do it? If you’ve ever wondered what it means to live with Four Seasons, we’re taking a look at what it’s really like through the eyes of both residents and the passionate innovators working behind the scenes.

The residential teams at Four Seasons go above and beyond to bring some magic to your life, like this outdoor family movie night at Four Seasons Private Residences Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo.

Planning a special dinner? Have a chef come to your home to create a feast just for you.

Service that’s tailored to you

“I can’t begin to explain to you the ease and comfort – it’s all wrapped up in one perfect package,” says Four Seasons homeowner Nazie Eftekhari.

For Eftekhari, one of the biggest draws of this type of homeownership is simple – she doesn’t have to worry about it. “Before I get there, I send down a grocery list. Everything is in the refrigerator, everything I’ve asked for. Perfect, packaged and ready to go. This is a chef’s dream; this is a mother’s dream.”

This level of intuitive service is such an integral part of what Four Seasons is known for, and it’s elevated even further at each Four Seasons Private Residence. Everything from dinner reservations to delivering late-night snacks to planning your child’s birthday party to ensuring your favourite flowers are always on display is handled by a passionate team of experts who know your tastes and preferences – and treat you like family.

“Our residents live at Four Seasons for a reason,” notes Reed Kandalaft, Regional Vice President and General Manager at Beverly Wilshire, A Four Seasons Hotel. “This is not just a typical building where you buy an apartment that you live in and you park your car. We want to know what you like and how you like it so we can go out there and really curate that for you.”

It might be easy to imagine that this kind of dedicated attention is true for owners who live in standalone residences such as Four Seasons Private Residences at 706 Mission, San Francisco. But the same is true at mixed-use properties that are connected to a hotel or resort, which make up the bulk of the Four Seasons residential portfolio.

Owners at mixed-use properties such as Four Seasons Private Residences Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo not only have the attention of an expert residential team, they also enjoy total access to the Resort. “Our [goal is to make] each experience and interaction with every owner personalized to their individual needs,” says General Manager Ian-Robert Ciappara. “Homeowners are part of our community, having full access to all the amenities our Resort guests enjoy. Our amenities and services become an extension of their home and their daily life, to be enjoyed as often as they choose.”

So with the kitchen stocked, house organized, errands taken care of and activities booked, how do residents fill rest of their days? As Eftekhari says: “You get to enjoy your family, you get to enjoy your friends. You get to just enjoy your time. Doesn’t get much better than that.”

The dedicated residential teams are always on hand to take care of your every need.

Coming back from some time away? Expect a kitchen stocked with all your favourites without ever having to go to the grocery store.

Your home is in expert hands, whether you’re there or not.

Complete peace of mind

Homeownership is a major investment, and protecting that investment is just as important to the on-site residential teams as it is to each owner. Maintaining this high level of trust is especially true with second homes that you may only visit a few times a year. For many homeowners, another benefit of living with Four Seasons is the confidence they have in leaving their home in the team’s care.

“We do not have any worries when we’re away from our home for extended periods of time,” echoes one homeowner at Four Seasons Private Residences Orlando at Walt Disney World® Resort. “Everything’s monitored and taken care of in our absence and prepared for us when we’re back.”

But what actually happens at your residence when you’re not there? Property management entails taking charge of all administrative aspects of a residence, including renting the property when desired; maintaining the beauty, security and quality of all infrastructures; and ensuring effective and timely relations with all suppliers of goods and services. “Overall, our focus – and our pride – is to allow our residents, their friends and relatives to enjoy their stay with us without any hassle,” says Alexia Douyon, Director of Residences at Four Seasons Private Residences Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo. “No detail is overlooked, and residents can expect tailor-made service and the feeling of [being a part of] a community that truly cares about their well-being.”

As soon as you let the on-site team know you’re coming home, everything is set into motion. Your favourite foods are organized, your home is thoroughly cleaned and prepared for your arrival, and if you’re celebrating a special occasion, the team is excited to make the moment memorable for you. Expect thoughtful surprises like an embroidered robe for a newborn, a room full of balloons to celebrate a milestone or an impromptu birthday parade as genuine gestures of love from your Four Seasons family.

Designed by Martyn Lawrence Bullard, the residences at Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles epitomize contemporary California living.

Perched high above the waters of Lake Austin, Four Seasons Private Residences Lake Austin makes the most of its secluded hillside setting.

Designer Nicolas Roux drew inspiration from the country’s rich architectural heritage while designing the residences and common space of Four Seasons Private Residences Bahrain.

Design that fits your style

Creating a palpable sense of place is another signature element of Four Seasons Private Residences. From iconic skylines in Bangkok and London to tropical locales like Belize and the Dominican Republic, Four Seasons Private Residences are available in some of the world’s most desirable locations, and the residences themselves are designed to capture the essence of each locale.

At Four Seasons Private Residences Las Vegas, drawing from the surrounding desert landscape as well as the glamour of Las Vegas was essential to informing the design. Similarly, the sprawling hills and big, blue Texas sky are beautifully showcased in the private homes and community spaces at Four Seasons Private Residences Lake Austin.

In Los Angeles, the inspiration came from the mid-century architecture and famous Case Study Houses that the city is known for, which meant bringing the outdoors in and the indoors out. “We have all of these amazing terraces, all these wonderful windows that disappear – we’re really capturing that essence,” says Martyn Lawrence Bullard, interior designer of Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles.

“The Four Seasons brand is known as a stamp of quality, a seal of perfection,” he continues. “Obviously we wanted [the residences] to have a wonderful luxe feel, but it had to blend with the California experience.”

Owners can also expect the highest quality materials and finishes in every private residence, often using materials that are native to the area or design motifs that nod to local culture. At Four Seasons Private Residences Bahrain Bay, designer Nicolas Roux created a design that pays homage to the exquisite craftsmanship you find in traditional Bahraini architecture. “We brought a focus to the amazing local pearl resources famed across Bahrain by using mother-of-pearl inlay throughout the design in a variety of ways,” says Roux. “We also used a lot of beautiful marble across the floors, walls and architraves, and a Guatemala green verde stone to reference the deeper colours from the spice markets.”

While the designers have put incredible thought into the creation of each residence, there’s still plenty of room to make it your own. “[We’ve created] these beautiful backgrounds, but within those finishes, there’s ways for all the people who buy these apartments to change it up a little, to add their flavour,” says Bullard of the Los Angeles residences.

Ultimately, notes Roux, it’s important that owners feel relaxed, that this is a space where they can feel at home.

At Four Seasons, home is that feeling of belonging and the complete confidence that you’re being taken care of. As homeowner Eftekhari said, it doesn’t get much better than that.
