Around The World: Villa La Angostura, Argentina

assaf avissar Like many raised in Israel, Assaf Avissar began traveling immediately after completing his obligatory military service. Curious and passionate about understanding people from many backgrounds, he worked his way around the world, immersing himself in many cultures. Long stays in such places as Sydney, Costa Rica, Brazil, and New York helped shape Assaf's concept of where he would (and wouldn't) eventually want to settle down. Arriving in San Diego to visit a friend, Assaf quickly knew he had found home. "It was different than anywhere: beautiful, laid-back, diverse, surrounded by great surfing — a place where your community is your family. It felt like freedom. This is the good life!" said Assaf, now a San Diego local for over 20 years and a proud U.S. citizen.

And San Diego, it seemed, was ready for his international brand of hustle. Assaf quickly gained a reputation for his dedication to his clients' needs — putting himself in their shoes, understanding their needs and wants, and refusing to let them down. Based on past experience with his family's real estate business, Assaf chose to become an agent just when the market seemed at its worst, mentoring with Penny Nathan as she was founding Ascent Real Estate (now Coldwell Banker West). Where others saw hardship, they explored the opportunity to create win-win situations and help clients thrive in tough times. Assaf says, "We set out to prove that honesty was an asset, not a weakness; focusing on the client, not the commission, is the only way to provide true value." As a result, Assaf is always in demand.

Assaf specializes in Metro and coastal properties; with his wide professional network and supportive team, he serves all of San Diego County with a deep familiarity for the area's unique communities and market conditions. With his unique combination of empathy and hustle, Assaf helps buyers and sellers make the most of a home sale with the least amount of stress.

“”

Assaf was recommended to us from a family friend and we could not be happier! He instantly built rapport with us and we felt we could truly trust him right off the bat. As first time home buyers...we knew nothing! Assaf took so much time breaking everything down and explaining every step of the way. I can confidently say Assaf had our best interest in mind and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. Once we entered escrow Stephanie was extremely helpful making a very stressful process go smoothly. She was very patient answering many questions from us and helping us get what we wanted from the seller. Overall, we are so happy and grateful for Assaf and Stephanie’s knowledge of the market, attention to detail, loyalty to their customer, and negotiation skills. We can’t wait to move in to our dream home!

Assaf Helped me out to purchase my first home in San Diego and made my move from Seattle to San Diego as easy as it can be. I think that his responsiveness was one of the most important attribute that helped this deal to be successful. He was very knowledgeable about the neighborhood and area and knew what to match to my wants and needs.

- Jon

We worked with Assaf and his team to sell our property in San Diego while living in Kansas City (after working with him to buy it a few years ago). We are so pleased with how smooth the process went and also with the price we got for it. We completely trust Assaf to advise and represent us.

With San Diego not being our primary residence, we rely on him to educate us on the different neighborhoods of San Diego. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the pros and cons of buying in different areas. We are currently using Assaf to help us find a new property. He keeps us informed of new and coming soon listings, is always available and immediately responsive. He has spent countless hours taking us to see new listings and has been very patient with us as we have taken our time and changed our minds a few times. I cannot recommend Assaf and his team more highly. There is no one else I'd want to work with when buying or selling in San Diego!

ISLAND

DREAMS

Through exclusive resorts and villas, the elusive dream of a private island getaway is an attainable reality.

20

A

n escape to the Caribbean or South Pacific is always dream-worthy, but the ultimate tropical fantasy involves being immersed in luxury and natural beauty on a private island. It is a mistake to think that

only billionaires have access to such retreats, as intimate resorts and private residences await those with the spirit of romance and adventure.

Malagasy Magic From Time + Tide, a family-owned, environmentally conscious specialist in luxury safari and exotic island tourism, is Miavana, an idyllic retreat off the coast of Madagascar. Occupying the diminutive island of Nosy Ankao, Miavana provides 14 luxury beach front villas with modern architecture that’s softened by hand-dyed textiles, Malagasy wood and local stone. These low-impact villas seamlessly coexist with the pristine natural environment. “Miavana is on par with, if not better than, any luxury private island environment in the world,” contends Bruce Simpson, CEO of Time + Tide Africa, due in large part to a destination as singularly beautiful and unique as Madagascar. Assessing Miavana’s guests, who are demographically diverse, Simpson reports, “We see them as a combination of well-traveled individuals anxious to see something new or different, and newer travelers looking for exciting, unique products or destinations.”

Confirming their adventurous spirit, Simpson reveals a large proportion of those guests elect to explore off-island attractions, immersing themselves in Madagascar’s beguiling culture, wildlife and geography.

Explaining the increasing popularity of this kind of vacationing, Simpson states, “I feel that private islands are developing out of a need for more exclusive and remote environments away from larger hotels and overcommercialized offerings.” For a quintessential private island experience, this resort offers the opportunity to book all 14 villas for an ultra-extravagant holiday.

Presidential Escapes The Florida Keys have long captured the hearts of travelers who appreciate solitude, natural beauty and a splash of eccentricity, just a leisurely excursion from bustling Miami. Occupying a four-acre islet in the Keys is an intimate hideaway named Little Palm Island Resort & Spa, whose remote location has not kept presidents or movie stars from discovering its charm.

This article originally appeared in the Summer 2024 edition of Homes & Estates.

HOME SIMPLICITY MAGAZINE

John Allan, Little Palm Island’s general manger, states, “Beyond exclusivity and privacy, the foremost aspiration of our guests lies in the art of disconnecting.” In fact, cell phone use in public spaces is discouraged and distractions like television, telephones or alarm clocks are absent from suites. “In a world where technology and the news cycle permeate daily lives, retreating to a private island resort is a way for guests to completely unplug and cherish shared moments, he explains.

“Our guests can create their own experiences without ever running into a crowd,” says the general manager, who notes that no more than 60 guests are ever present at one time. There is, however, an abundance of non-human activity, including endangered Key deer and exotic birds, in addition to extraordinary sea life. “Our guests look for an authentic, luxury experience in all aspects of their visit,” says Allan, and suggests the resort’s partnerships with local environmental organizations appeal to their philanthropic sensibilities.

HMS Bounty Situated on the remote French Polynesian atoll of Tetiaroa is The Brando, named for Marlon Brando, who discovered Tetiaroa when scouting locations for the 1962 film “Mutiny on the Bounty.”

The island still represents the epitomie of escapism, an experience enhanced by five-star luxury. The actor, who commented, “Tetiaroa is beautiful beyond my capacity to describe,” built a home for himself there, a serene refuge from chaotic Hollywood. With the resort’s commitment to environmental and cultural stewardship, Tetiaroa is as pristine as when Brando first laid eyes on the island. Conscientiously integrated with the delicate tropical environment are 35 beachfront villas and a secluded Paris’ renowned HÔtel Plaza Athénée and the storied Orient Express.

“The Brando is a private island resort like no other,” insists general manager Valérie Gachon, who explains, “Guests experience luxury and authenticity in a breahtaking setting: a soul-cleaning and life-changing experience where you can connect with nature, widlife, the Polynesian people, and their culture in an organiz way.”

Emphasizing the private island’s extraordinary efforts of maintaining a conscientious, carbon-neutral development — the resort is truly a global leader in sustainable hospitality — Gachon states, “The Brando allows visitors not just to observe nature but to fully immerse themselves in it.”

Deep Dive Discovered by travelers seeking to combine luxury with adventure, the Seychelles — an unspoiled Indian Ocean archipelago off the coast of East Africa — offers some of the most gorgeous resorts on the planet. Four Seasons operates two properties in the Seychelles, but their intimate resort on Desroches Island is a genuine expression of exclusivity.

Desroches features a white sugar-sand beach and the island is revered by divers because of its coral composition and access to deep waters filled with mesmerizing species.

A terraced, sculptural lighthouse with panoramic ocean views serve as one of the resort’s restaurants, offering the likes of lobster thermidor, Kobe beef and pistachio-crusted black cod with beurre blanc. “Being in the Seychelles with my family is beautiful, helping us appreciate the wonders of nature and those values are reflected in our restaurants and dining experiences” reports senior executive chef Carlos Rodriguez. Service and amenities are at a level one expects from Four Seasons, but with a casual, approachable attitude. The height of pampered privacy at this resort is a sprawling villa with 100,000-plus square feet of indoor-outdoor living space.

Villas Online Those looking for an island experience with maximum privacy turn to shortterm rental platforms that maintain listings for private islands around the globe. “Vrbo exclusively offers private vacation rentals, ensuring guests never have to share space with hosts, and entire islands take that privacy to the next level,” explains Vrbo travel expert Melanie Fish. Hummingbird Cay in the Bahamas, featuring versatile accommodations and a 2,500foot white-sand beach, is one of the private islands listed by Vrbo. Another is Kanu, a tiny private island in Belize — its own coral reef is a major draw for divers — whose five villas can sleep 20. But Vrbo’s Fish notes this kind of privileged experience can be found closer to home. “Travelers may be surprised to find out that there are private islands available in destinations like Maine, Minnesota and Florida,” she says. Reporting that booking decisions in the private vacation rental marketplace often hinge on amenities, Fish explains, “Private islands tend to dial those offerings up by providing a private chef or water taxi along with the peace and seclusion.”

Currently offered by My Private Villas, a London-based firm specializing in private island rentals, are Cousine Island (with four villas and a helipad) in the Seychelles, or Calala Island off the coast of Nicaragua whose five beach front suites are supported by a staff of 25. A hybrid between hotel accommodations and independent estate living is a splendid villa on a petite island in the Maldives, offering 24/7 butler service and privileges are Cheval Blanc Randheli, an ultra-high-end-resort. Chris Krolow, founder and CEO of Private Islands, Inc., has become a minor celebrity due to the HGTV show Island Hunters, featuring many of his company’s alluring properties. While the Caribbean, Mediterranean and South Pacific are naturally popular, Private Islands, Inc. also offers opportunities in less exotic domestic locations. Krolow’s television appearances simply reinforce the desire of travelers to make the ultimate escape — to their own private paradise.

COLDWELL BANKER

AROUNDTHEWORLD

a r u t s o g n A Villa La ARGENTINA

A vast South American wonderland abounds with adventure, wildlife, culture, and wine! This country is home to the Andes’ snow-covered peaks as well as dense marshlands, picture-perfect lakes, Valdivian forests, and arid deserts.

Can you guess where we are headed this month? Argentina!

Argentines are passionate about their diverse culture and are devoted to their love of fútbol, tango, wine, flame-charred meat, and adventure. While half of Argentina’s population lives in the area around Buenos Aires, it is not the only unique city — Córdoba, Salta, Mendoza and Bariloche each offer their own distinct personality.

In contrast to the busy cities of Argentina, the southern section of the country is a mystical area. Covered by an enormous barren, silent, beautiful region is Patagonia which features impressive sights and our very own Coldwell Banker office – Coldwell Banker Patagonia Lakes in Villa La Angostura. “Living in Villa La Angostura is the best thing that could have happened to me. I found the perfect balance to raise a family and educate my children in a healthy environment surrounded by nature, mineral fresh water, and majestic mountains,” Javier Genesio, Owner said.

Javier also says Patagonia is an excellent place to invest in real estate. “You will be successful if you build properties to sell them, or simply build houses to rent to a tourist or on a permanent basis.”

If the quality of life and opportunities to build your own real estate empire have made you fall in love with Patagonia, Javier invites you to work remotely from their small corner of the planet, as their excellent fiber-optic internet can keep you connected to the rest of the world!

What is the perfect weekend day like: An ideal weekend for me is to get up early on a 25° C summer morning, buy some drinks, and load gasoline to go sailing through Lake Nahuel Huapi. with my wife and two children. I like to fish from the boat on the way to Victoria Island, then when we get to “Piedras Blancas,” we light a fire and cook some freshly caught trout while my kids enjoy snorkeling, windsurfing and stand-up paddle surfing. The daylight ends around 10:00 PM so you can enjoy almost 15 hours of light in the summer.

Alternatively, a winter plan can be a Ski Day in the Ski Center Boutique “Cerro Bayo.”

This is a very friendly hill with excellent trails, ideal for families and experienced lovers of the best ski resort landscapes in the world.

KEY FACTS What is your favorite recreational or leisure time activity: I recommend two very interesting activities: One is to rent a kayak and leave from the port of Villa la Angostura and paddle for 2 hours to Puerto Manzano, touring the most beautiful bays of the town with transparent water. I also recommend touring the Quetrihué Peninsula by bike or walking for 12km and returning by boat from the Arrayanes Forest.

Share a little known but interesting fact about the area/region: I recommend checking out the viewpoints that the town has both in the port and in Bayo Hill, where you can appreciate some of the best views of the world from the height, appreciating the immensity of the Lake Nahuel Huapi!
