Santaluz basks in a temperate coastal climate that is near perfect year round. Only ten minutes from the beaches of Del Mar, residents enjoy a maritime climate and rejoice in the glowing sunshine while neighboring beach communities can remain blanketed by a cumbersome marine layer.

A model of innovative design, The 3,800-acre Village of Santaluz was named the "Best Master Planned Community in Southern California" by the Building Industry Association Sales & Marketing Council. Meticulous care has been exercised throughout to protect the area's natural character, enhancing the early California setting and a causal but elegant lifestyle.

Santaluz garners inspiration from the grandest of California neighborhoods, the bordering communities of Rancho Santa Fe and Fairbanks Ranch as well as the coastal villages of Del Mar and La Jolla.

Homesites in Santaluz feature unique curvilinear placements carefully situated to capture panoramic ocean, city light, coastal canyon and golf course views.

Amenities include the Santaluz Club with a private championship Rees-Jones golf course, spa, fitness facilities and social opportunities for adults and children.

The Hacienda also includes a gymnasium with a basketball court, stage and fitness area, The Fresh Roast, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, outdoor lounging areas, 6 tennis courts and a fitness shop.

The 11-acre Village Green offers an open, grassy area for recreation and also functions as a venue for community events.
