Private titled land on Mexico's most pristine coastline. Turquoise water, white sand, tourist zoning. Ready for your eco-resort, boutique hotel, or private sanctuary.
The Coastline
Irregular polygon. ~92 m beach frontage × ~247 m depth. Total 13,620 m² (1.36 ha). Flat calizo coastal soil.
Coastal dune vegetation within the lot. Adjacent mangrove and lagoon outside the polygon — not on title. Flat terrain, requires clearing before development.
Direct beach access from the property. Turquoise shallow water, white sand. Part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef system — world's second largest reef.
Investment Case
Costa Maya remains undervalued relative to Tulum and Cancun corridors. With the cruise terminal drawing over 1.2 million passengers annually and the world's second-largest reef offshore, demand pressure is building.
Private titled property (escritura pública) — not ejidal. Free of liens, predial current.
Tourist zoning confirmed (PDU Mahahual 2021-2050): eco-resort, boutique hotel, private villa all permitted.
Off-grid ready: solar and well infrastructure are the norm in this corridor — not a limitation, a feature.
Fideicomiso-ready for foreign buyers. Straightforward bank trust through any major Mexican bank.

Legal & Development
Common Questions
Yes, through a fideicomiso (bank trust). Foreign buyers hold the property via a Mexican bank trustee for 50-year renewable terms, with full rights to use, rent, sell, and develop. This property is confirmed fideicomiso-ready with clear private title.
Mexican law restricts direct foreign ownership within 50 km of the coast. A fideicomiso gives you 100% equivalent rights — the bank holds legal title as trustee while you retain all beneficial rights including development, rental income, and sale proceeds.
Zoned Mixto Costero / Servicios Turísticos under the Mahahual Urban Development Plan 2021-2050: eco-resort, boutique hotel, or private villa are all compatible uses. Protected coastal dune vegetation within the lot requires an environmental feasibility study with an authorized biologist before construction — this is standard procedure for coastal development in Quintana Roo.
Chetumal Airport (CTM) is ~142 km away, approximately 100 minutes. Cancun International (CUN) is ~370 km / ~4.5 hours. The Costa Maya cruise terminal is just 8 km away, drawing over 1.2 million passengers annually from Carnival and Royal Caribbean.
No CFE grid connection — this corridor is designed for solar/off-grid development, which is not a limitation but a design opportunity. A deep well provides water (coastal limestone aquifer is accessible, standard in Quintana Roo). Telcel and Movistar cell coverage is available in the zone; on-site signal should be verified in person.
Location
~8 km south of Mahahual. Parallel to the coast highway Cafetal-Mahahual. Accessible via white-gravel coastal road.
