Designed around the estuary, the Costa Palmas beach club was built in the shape of an herradura, or horseshoeThis respects and pays tribute to the native and indigenous plants and wildlife that populate the area. Therefore the precise shape of the club allows for stunning vistas of the estuary from every angle.
