Sunshine, sandy beaches and endless open spaces—Mexico’s oceanside destinations are in hot demand. With travelers again on the move, the luxury real estate market, from Los Cabos to Todos Santos, Punta de Mita to Riviera Maya, is booming. In Los Cabos, The Agency team recently completed the sale of Casa Bahia Rocas, a $23.5M estate neighboring the One&Only Palmilla Hotel. Represented by Janet Jensen, Lew Gallo, Gaby Digiuseppe and Jonathan Ruiz, the two-acre estate is situated within the gates of the exclusive Villas Del Mar community in Palmilla, featuring a seven-bedroom main residence, guest cottage, pool, swim-up bar and tennis court.
“The buyer was very familiar with Palmilla, but had his offer accepted sight unseen. He wanted the ability to walk his dogs in private on the long stretch of beach in front of Villas Del Mar,” Janet explains. “Many buyers are choosing to have a second, third or even primary home in Cabo where they can enjoy the beachfront, multi-generational living and a place to host family and friends in one place with private amenities in the home or within close reach.” Janet also notes that the seller chose to list with The Agency because of its collaborative team both on the ground in Los Cabos and Los Angeles.
“Our multi-national team and global reach was a huge draw for the seller. With Jonathan on the listing team, we expanded our reach in the U.S. market. The Agency’s in-house PR division secured global media coverage and the in-house marketing division crafted a visual and narrative story, all of which helped provide the buyer with everything he needed to make an offer without having toured the home.” Janet, Jonathan and Lisa Torres recently added another spectacular Cabo estate to their portfolio: Casa Escondida, a nine-bedroom seaside compound within the gates of Fundadores in Puerto Los Cabos.
G. Giovanni Giammarco and Martin Posch of The Agency Los Cabos recently debuted their new listing at The Viceroy Hotel and Residences, Villa 18, a modern, five-bedroom residence featuring 2,500 square feet of outdoor living space and fantastic Sea of Cortez views. Residents enjoy the amenities and services of the hotel, including five restaurants, a spa, pool, kids’ club and movie theater.
North of Los Cabos in La Paz, the capital of Baja California Sur, Alejandro Mitre and Bruno Bourlon recently listed Casa Palmira, a four-bedroom residence overlooking the Sea of Cortez from above the Marina de Palmira. Located within a private gated community, the home features a pool, spa and exquisite outdoor entertaining areas.
In nearby Todos Santos, Joanne Berkowitz, Don Morris and Alejandro are representing a collection of condominiums within Villas de Todos Santos, a boutique residential offering situated in downtown’s historic district. Minutes from the beach, the residences feature a pool, spa, lounge, inner courtyard and margarita bar, located moments from quaint shops, restaurants and galleries. Residence 307 is a two-bedroom home in the collection, presenting soaring ceilings, open-plan living, alfresco dining and beautiful design detail. Residence 211 is a three-bedroom home in the collection, while Residence 109 offers a one-bedroom floor plan, each including hotel-style amenities in the comfort of home.
On the Caribbean waters of Mexico’s Riviera Maya, the Mayakoba resort community is seeing unprecedented interest and an increase in sales volume. Represented by The Agency Development Group, residential offerings within the 620-acre, gated destination include Fairmont Residences and the ultra-private villas in the Rosewood Residences collection. Of the latter, Villa 832 is situated along the tranquil lagoons of Mayakoba, featuring a private pool, lounge, lagoonside dock and interiors by Bando x Seidel Meersseman. Adding to the community’s appeal, residents enjoy access to an incredible array of amenities, including 25 restaurants, four spas, private beach clubs, the 18-hole El Camaleón PGA Championship golf course, a private yacht for charter, the Mayakoba Dive & Water Sports Center and a three-mile nature trail.
On Mexico’s West Coast, between Puerto Vallarta and Punta de Mita, Alfonso Davalos and Mauricio Umansky have listed the exceptionally designed Villa Moderna in Bucerias. Just a few blocks from the beach, the gated, six-bedroom property showcases stunning contemporary design, lush tropical landscaping, a private pool and a rooftop palapa studio.
