The Mexico and Sweden-based studio MAIN OFFICE has recently expanded and revived Villa PelÃcanos, an existing residential complex dating from the â80s, and nestled in the tropical landscape of Mexicoâs West Coast.
Located in Sayulita â a beach town that is a popular destination for health, wellness and surfing retreats, the project is composed of a series of pavilion-like individual dwellings that descend a slope facing the Pacific Ocean.
Immersed in the jungle, the new holiday complex, surrounded by lush vegetation and featuring its own private beach, accommodates up to 20 guests and exudes the mellow ambience of a yoga retreat.
