Jazzing it up in the Playa del Carmen real estate area

Since 2007 the Playa del Carmen real estate area has been host to an annual Jazz festival.  As our office introduces many new non Mexicans interested in living in Playa del Carmen, or are interested in buying property in Playa del Carmen, one of the strong attractions to this growing international metropolitan is the international events and festivals.  Playa del Carmen has a whole line up of year long activities. 

This past spring, Julio Iglesias held a concert with great success and thousands of fans turning out both locally and from other countries.  Later in the year, the Canadian superstar Gino Vannelli also came to Playa del Carmen giving a stand up concert that had the streets buzzing for many weeks following.  When the line up was released on who was coming to town for the 2009 on the beach, under the stars concert, it created a rumored record crowd this past week end.

Sergio Mendez, one of the main attractions is from Brazil and was popping out tunes during the 50’s, 60’s during the bossa nova movements.  He brought the people to their feet Friday night when he sang the old classic THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA, along with other hits.

 

Spyro Gyra had everyone full of electricity and applauding with several solos and tunes that had people dancing on the beach.  Sax, drums, bass,  all of this and more under a starry night on the Caribbean. 

 

Saturday night.  Al Jarreau from Wisconsin, the only vocalist in history to receive the grammy awards in three categories (jazz, pop, and rythm & blues) was definitely at the top keeping all of the crowd entertained at Mamitas beach. 

 

Pat Martino played beautiful relaxing music with his guitar and Herbie Hancock closed the night and the festival with nothing less than an unforgetable week end of  world class music…. here in Playa del Carmen.

As I work in the Playa del Carmen real estate market, many people ask what is it like to live in Mexico and work in the Mexico real estate industry?   What is it like to live in Playa del Carmen?   I respond that I am lucky to live here.   There are not many places where you can live next to the Caribbean beaches.  Not many places where you have hundreds of miles of incredible snorkling and scuba waters to discover, to kayak, to sail, to fish.  Have hundreds of world class restaurants, cafes, bars to enjoy and hundreds of ruins and pyramids to explore.  And all of this with people who have relocated here from all regions of the world (Italy, UK, USA, Canada, Argentina, other parts of Mexico) to come and enjoy living their new life in this small little caribbean beachside community.
