Expectation for the re-launch of the Mayan Riviera Airport project is rising as Quintana Roo’s Governor, Mr Roberto Borge Angulo announced that he is expecting the head of the SCT (the federal Communitations and Transport secretariat) Dionisio Pérez-Jácome Friscione to visit the Mayan Riviera before the end of the month. The main purpose of the visit would be the airport project announcement.
Mr Angulo also commented on the recent approval by the Environment Secretariat (SEMARNAT) of a new highway, a 26 km (16 miles) detour that will circumvent the Tulum town and will have a 5.7km (3.5 miles) deviation leading into the new airport.
Zama Village, the first premium development inside Aldea Zama is almost sold out. According to the project developers, as of today (june 7th, 2011) there are only 9 condos left. Prices have already gone up by 12% due to the early success.
As a result of the accelerated sales, Grupo Kaua (the developers) are analyzing a second project similar to Zama Village. Certainly Zama Village is one of the best Tulum developments (probably the best).

Vive Riviera Maya is one of the first developments on the jungle side of the road near Tulum (15 miles). Actually, Vive Riviera Maya’s closest town is Chemuyil, only 2 miles away from the development’s gates.
Vive Riviera Maya offers large lots of 1 hectare / 2.47 acres, of which 10%-20% can be urbanized. Most of the lots of the first phase are already sold, and the owners are waiting for the basic infrastructure to start building. There are already some 6-7 projects under construction and a luxury house fully constructed (see pictures in the gallery above).
Though the development is on the jungle side of the highway, the beaches of Xcacel-Xcacelito (a tortue sanctuary) are very near (5 miles) and connected to the Vive Riviera Maya road by a newly constructed bridge over the highway. Because of its jungle location, prices are really affordable, starting around $40.000 – $ 50.000. Jungle location, is yet a second best for the Mayan Riviera investors, as most of the development happens on the beach side of the highway, however I think it has some key advantages: a more natural environment, better protection against hurricanes and still close to the beach. For information on this development you can reach Mariela Tugores, a real estate agent with experience in the area at: mariela@schimar.com or +52155 1510 3210
Zama Village is the first premium condo development of Aldea Zama. Zama Village is a three-storey building surrounding a tropical garden and a long pool. The development features 2-bedroom 2-bathrooms apartments, most of them with a terrace and jacuzzi (there are only 2 bigger 3-bedroom apartments). The ones in the third level feature a ample rooftop with open air jacuzzi and barbecue place. The construction quality is very good, using the natural materials (wood, stone, thatched roofs) required by the strict construction rules of Aldea Zama.
Some 17 of the 32 condos were already sold, even when the construction works are expected to finish in May 2012. The condos prices at the lower level start at $190.000, though due to the success of the project prices may already be up by 10%.
The Zama Village condos are expected to enjoy a high rental income as they are the first condos of its type in the area.
