The Story — Why Saraphim

Built in love.
Named for an angel.

Saraphim was inspired by the love of Shannon Mendoza's life — his daughter, Sara, who passed away on June 2, 2013 at the age of twenty-seven. Sara was beautiful, like an angel — “the Seraphim Angel in the Bible.” She loved music, and she loved to see people happy.

In her honor, her father set out to build a wonderful oasis — one that reflects the beauty and happiness that Sara Nicole Mendoza gave to the world. That oasis is Saraphim: a world-class recording destination where artists transcend, create, and stay on top.

Inspire, Create, Be Great.

In Sara's memory, a portion of Saraphim's profits is dedicated to cancer research and Hunger-Aid — to help find a cure, and to help feed the world.

The Destination

One estate, four disciplines.

Studio, spa, residence and play — woven into a single self-sustaining property engineered for one pursuit: the artist at their highest.
