Add to this one of the only marinas in Mexico to accommodate small boats, a golf course and the ability to live super close to the ocean and you have the defining features of Puerto Aventuras. So why have so few people heard of this place? I spoke to Hazel Richardson, <strong>one of our Top Mexico agents<\/strong> who live there, and she shared her thoughts about this little known part of the Riviera Maya.<strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>Hazel:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> People think they\u00c2\u00b4re not allowed to come in to Puerto Aventuras. The restaurants are right there that you can go to at any time, you have a good selection of bands and karaoke, And there\u00c2\u00b4s also the dolphins, the manatees and the sea lions. You\u00c2\u00b4ve also got the fisherman waiting for their tours to come in. You get to meet and enjoy lots of other people from all different parts of the world. But the community in general is just really nice because everyone is super friendly, everybody is very courteous with each other. It\u00c2\u00b4s mainly English spoken, so it\u00c2\u00b4s for people that are coming in from another country who don\u00c2\u00b4t speak Spanish. It\u00c2\u00b4s pretty easy to navigate your way through life in Puerto Aventuras. Right across the road is a big grocery store, Chedraui. So you have everything right there. If you really just want a nice small community. The collectivos run on a very regular basis, you can go to Playa or go to Tulum, because it\u00c2\u00b4s right between in the Riviera Maya.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s255.photobucket.com\/user\/beatlo\/media\/Webinar\/100x300_zpshqpag6bk.jpg.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/i255.photobucket.com\/albums\/hh138\/beatlo\/Webinar\/100x300_zpshqpag6bk.jpg\" alt=\" photo 100x300_zpshqpag6bk.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>What kinds of reactions do people have when they find out about this place?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Hazel<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: As tourists. they love it. They say \u00c2\u00a8My gosh, we love it here. We always go to Playa, we\u00c2\u00b4ve been to Tulum, we didn\u00c2\u00b4t even know this place was here.\u00c2\u00a8 But they\u00c2\u00b4ve never heard of it, because it\u00c2\u00b4s the best kept secret of the Riviera Maya. People that have rental property are losing because they don\u00c2\u00b4t have the same kind of awareness that Playa del Carmen has. Although the ROI potential isn\u00c2\u00b4t as high because nobody knows it\u00c2\u00b4s there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Rental prices in Puerto Aventuras are a little bit higher. Property prices are higher. I would say that vacation rental prices are higher and also if you do long term rental. But it\u00c2\u00b4s definitely worth it, I love living here. It\u00c2\u00b4s peaceful and tranquil, you live on the golf course, and it\u00c2\u00b4s very quiet at night. Sometimes you can hear music from the hotels. There\u00c2\u00b4s an opera singer that comes in every so often, and his voice resonates throughout the whole of the community. It\u00c2\u00b4s so beautiful I usually go sit outside and listen to him.<\/p>\n<p>Also read: <strong><a title=\"Puerto Aventuras: Live the Marina Life\" href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/blog\/2016\/02\/puerto-aventuras-live-the-marina-life\/\" target=\"_blank\">Puerto Aventuras: Live the Marina Life<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>How do people normally find out about it?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Hazel<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: People have been there, or the people that have <a title=\"Puerto Aventuras real estate\" href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/puertoaventuras-real-estate\/\" target=\"_blank\">vacation rental property<\/a> there. The people I speak to have either been coming here a really long time and come back every year and rent the same vacation property. Or they came up on it by chance from somebody telling them about it. You don\u00c2\u00b4t really find it advertised in a big way. Because it\u00c2\u00b4s so small and unique Expedia and all of those sites don\u00c2\u00b4t focus on it. In Playa del Carmen there\u00c2\u00b4s tons of properties that they can offer. There\u00c2\u00b4s hotels and packages and all inclusives. We have the Catalonia-which is an all inclusive, we have Dreams which is all inclusive and then we have the Omni, which is just a really nice hotel. And then we have the vacational rental properties.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Now if you want to learn more about property in Puerto Aventuras,\u00c2\u00a0how to purchase property in Mexico or about any of the TOP MEXICO REAL ESTATE properties we have listed anywhere throughout Mexico, please feel free to contact any of our Top Mexico Buyer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Representatives and we will be glad to help you find your very own piece of paradise.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And remember, here at Top Mexico Real Estate\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n<p><i>We make it happen!<\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u00c2\u00b4s beautiful, it\u00c2\u00b4s in between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, and it\u00c2\u00b4s a safe gated community with heavy security.
