A hideaway in the rainforest

Where the forest keeps its quiet

Scroll to begin

Serenità began as a house we built for ourselves, at the edge of the forest, beside still water. We wanted mornings without hurry, and evenings that end in silence. It is still that house. Now we keep it for you.

Serenità

The place

A handful of houses in timber, stone and glass, set into the rainforest and open to the air on every side.

I

Timber & stone

Warm wood overhead and cool stone underfoot. Every room opens onto green.

II

Exclusively Yours

Only a handful of residences, so the quiet is never shared with a crowd.

III

Unhurried

No timetable unless you ask for one. The day is yours to spend slowly.

A day at Serenità

A day, told by the light

06:10. First light lifts off the canopy.

Mist rises from the trees while the house is still asleep. Coffee is left by your door.

09:30. The pool holds the whole sky.

A first swim before the heat, then breakfast on the terrace, for as long as it lasts.

13:00. Midday belongs to the bathing house.

Stone walls, a deep copper tub and a window full of leaves. Nothing else is asked of you.

16:40. Long shadows on warm timber.

The deck catches the last of the sun. A book, a cool drink and the sound of the forest.

19:20. The sea turns to silk.

Evening comes in slowly from the water, and the day ends the way it began: quietly.

Residences

Three ways to stay

A bedroom with a wide window onto dense green forest.

A two-storey house of timber slats and stone above a green lawn.

Two floors under a deep roof, with a lawn that runs down to the trees.

Enquire
A house with a pergola and a stone-edged pool at dusk.

03

A private pool beneath a slatted pergola, with room for the whole family.

Enquire

Nothing here is in a hurry. Least of all you.

The table

Dinner is set wherever the evening finds you

Breakfast arrives when you wake. Lunch is laid out in the shade. At night, the table moves to the deck, the garden or the water’s edge, wherever you would rather be.
