Tulum Town Center

Tulum town center is a Mayan village located about 2 hours south of Cancun, near a famous site of archaeological ruins.  The town combines the mysterious history of the Mayan jungle, excellent investment opportunity and low prices.

Living Well, on a Budget

Tulum is still a small town, and beautiful condos are available starting as low as $120,000 USD!  Americans, Canadians and Europeans who want to live in a beachfront paradise, yet still get excellent prices and save money are beginning to notice this quaint small town and buy up beautiful and inexpensive properties.  On top of the low prices, it looks like Tulum’s boom is promising excellent appreciation potential - see below for more details … 

The World’s Most Beautiful Beaches

Tulum’s beaches have soft white sand; dotted with palm trees, they are wide and slope very gently into the bright turquoise Caribbean Sea. They are the quintessential beachfront.  Trip Advisor and many other online rankings have named them among the top 5 in the world, and most travelers who have made their rounds insist that they are number 1!  Once you have gotten used to Tulum’s beaches, there are few, if any, beaches in the world that will compare.

The Heart of the Mayan Spirit

Tulum town center was originally a village set up just past the original Mayan ruins with the same name.  These ruins are perched on a cliff top with a spectacular view overlooking the Caribbean, taking you back in time – or out of time altogether!  The town retains its Mayan character, where residents practice yoga, live in harmony with nature and feel themselves transported into a world of spirituality.  With 2012 as the year of the Mayans, ending one age and heralding a new one, the permeation of Mayan culture makes Tulum a very special and unique place.  The ruins, the beaches and the jungle all create a world of mystery and awe that makes life relaxing in a way most of us never imagine is possible.

Investment Potential – Appreciation

Not that long ago, Tulum was a group of shops and cabins on to offer basic services for those visiting the nearby ruins. As of 2005, the population was around 15,000 residents.  As of the end of 2011, there are estimates that this has reached 25,000.  With the growing popularity of the mystical ruins and the spectacular beaches, not only tourism is growing, but real estate is also booming.

Tulum already has great restaurants like Don Cafeto (a local favorite,) bars, nightlife, a supermarket, shopping, bicycle rentals, gyms, tour operators, banks, ATMs, internet cafes, and a Spanish language schools and much more.  The growing tourism and real estate boom promise more to come.

All of this points to increasing demand and higher values in the near future; now imagine buying a condo for around $120,000 USD – how much could that be worth in the future?

Bohemian Town Center

While growth is very apparent and happening quickly, careful planning has made it possible for Tulum not only to retain its small-town atmosphere, but to develop the bohemian lifestyle that has made it famous. Living in Tulum is relaxed, spiritual, artistic and ecological.  It is a place where you make close friends and always meet new, interesting people.  It is a place where day to day life doesn’t feel like work or routine, but like an enjoyable pleasure of new discovery.

Bike Lifestyle

Part of Tulum’s bohemian lifestyle is a bicycle culture; people ride bike everywhere – to the beach, to the café in the morning, to the ruins, to the supermarket and anywhere else where they want to go.  It adds to the relaxation, it’s ecological and it makes the community very neighborly.

Tulum is a relaxing small Mayan town defined by spirituality and art.  It is also a very affordable place to live and own a condominium!
