Marriott Vacation Club is opening its first ever resort in Costa Rica.

Beginning in January 2021, Marriott will debut the Marriott Vacation Club at Los Sueños, a 24-villa resort set within the Los Sueños Marriott Ocean & Golf Resort Complex, part of a broader 1,100-acre master planned community in Herradura.

“We are excited to offer the highly sought-after destination of Costa Rica to our Owners and guests,” said Brian Miller, president of Vacation Ownership, Marriott Vacations Worldwide. “The villas at this stunning resort will provide the comforts of home with authentic architectural touches that bring the rejuvenating landscape of the region indoors. Additionally, in early spring we plan to debut an innovative sales gallery concept that uniquely complements the area’s natural surroundings while also delivering another important sales distribution center to support our growth strategy.”

Owners and guests will have access to all of the amenities of the Los Sueños Marriott resort, including a pool, a beach, tennis courts, a spa, five eateries and a kids club, among others.

The Los Sueños Resort is also home to the 18-hole Iguana Golf Club.

The property is being developed by a partnership between Enjoy Group and CPG Hospitality.
