Yesterday the largest cruise ship in the world, the Royal Caribbean\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Oasis\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, docked in our Costa Maya real estate<\/a> region in the municipality of Mahahual.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0This was quite an event with many people who weren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t working going to the lighthouse to take photos and admire it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s size.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Another cruise was also in, the Pullman\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Pacific Dream\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, the majority of\u00c2\u00a0it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s passengers being Mexican and coming to know Costa Maya for the first time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To mark such an event, the state\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Tourism Secretary, Lic. Sara Latife Ruiz, hosted a breakfast meeting with local business owners, which I was fortunate enough to be invited to.\u00c2\u00a0 She talked about promoting Costa Maya as a destination for both Mexicans and foreigners alike and how it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s essential for all business owners to work together in order to promote the area as a whole, rather than individuals.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She also mentioned that Mexico has had it rough recently with the combination of the world economy collapsing, the swine flu epidemic last April and the reports of violence in the north of the country.<\/p>\n

Quintana Roo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s tourism department does have various plans to promote Mahahual and the Costa Maya real estate<\/a> area and the meeting was a great way for local businesses to join forces.\u00c2\u00a0 Hopefully we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be successful in promoting tourism in the area, both national and foreign.<\/p>\n

Often I find that people who come to stay at one of the vacation rentals that I manage comment that it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just what they are looking for: somewhere off the beaten track, private beaches, clear waters, great coral reef so close by (I could go on!) with potential for growth and a great sense of community spirit.\u00c2\u00a0 With prices ranging from US$55,000 (for a two-bedroom, 1 bath Costa Maya home<\/a> in the residential area near the cruise ship port) to US$450,000 up (there are some beautiful beach houses that are being sold turn-key) the range of properties available suits many budgets.<\/p>\n
