Community story

The setting and its character

Villas de Oro represents Palmilla's entry point, offering condominium residences spread across thirty-two inland acres behind a 24-hour guarded gate with a community pool. Low-rise architecture creates a spacious residential enclave rather than a dense condominium block.

The community spans three phases assessed separately. Phase I carries higher assessments between roughly $11,000 and $11,700 annually due to maintenance and reserves, while Phase II annualizes near $6,000 and Phase III near $5,400.

  • Thirty-two acre inland enclave with 24-hour gate and community pool
  • Thirty-three closed property sales recorded over five years
  • Accessible price point for condominium living inside Palmilla
