Homes for Sale in Tulum, Mexico

A three bedroom house of 431 square metres in Isla Victoria, a gated community with a shared pool in the Cancún Hotel Zone, with marble floors, a garden and covered parking for two cars.

The house

Two floors on a corner lot. Downstairs, an entrance hall with a guest bathroom, a living room in marble opening through sliding glass to the garden, a dining room, a kitchen with island and black stone counters, a pantry, a laundry and a service room with its own bathroom. Upstairs, three bedrooms each with a full bathroom and built in closets, the main one with a walk in dressing room. A pergola shades the double carport and the community pool sits among palms a short walk away. The house is empty and ready to move into.

The Hotel Zone

The Cancún Hotel Zone runs along the barrier island between the Caribbean and the Nichupté lagoon, with the airport twenty minutes away and the beach clubs, marinas, golf, shopping and restaurants of the city along the boulevard. The residential communities on the lagoon side are gated, quiet and a few minutes from the beach, and they have long been where Cancún families live rather than where tourists stay, which keeps them in demand for owners and for long term tenants alike.

A six bedroom house of 600 square metres on 500 square metres of land in the gated Flamingos enclave at kilometre 8 of the Hotel Zone, every bedroom with its own bathroom, with a pool, a palapa and a dock on the water.

The house

A Mexican beach house on two floors around a courtyard: a stone entrance with a rock fountain and palms, then the living and dining rooms under beamed ceilings opening to the pool and the lawn, a fitted kitchen with island, six bedrooms with vaulted brick ceilings and full bathrooms, and a covered terrace under a great palapa. Outside, the pool with a swim up bar, a lawn of palms running to the sand, and a dock on the bay. There is a garage for several cars behind a roller door and a second entrance for service.

Flamingos

Flamingos is a gated enclave of fewer than twenty houses on the beach at kilometre 8 of the Hotel Zone, on the bay side of Punta Cancún where the water is calm and the sand is white. Security runs around the clock and the neighbourhood is residential rather than hotel, which is rare on this coast.

The enclave

Punta Kalia is nine houses on the canals with its own clubhouse: a pool, gym, steam room, games room, padel court, massage room, an equipped kitchen and multipurpose room, a private 20 square metre storage unit per house and visitor parking. Low density and privacy are the point, with the mega yacht marina, golf course, beach club and shopping of Puerto Cancún minutes away.

Puerto Cancún

Puerto Cancún is the gated marina and golf community at the northern end of the Hotel Zone, ten minutes from downtown Cancún and twenty from the airport. It is built around an 18 hole golf course and a private marina that opens straight onto the Caribbean, with a clubhouse, spa and gym on the water, a beach club, Marina Town Center for shopping and restaurants, and security around the clock at the gate and again inside the neighbourhoods. The canal front houses have their own docks and boat lifts, so a boat sits at the bottom of the garden.

A colonial Mexican house of 700 square metres on a 1,160 square metre canal front lot in Puerto Altamira, inside Puerto Cancún, with its own dock, a pool terrace under a palapa and a triple height living room.

The house

Two storeys built around a circular plan that keeps the air moving, with a triple height living room under a thirteen metre ceiling and a wall of water lit from skylights by the entrance. Five bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, the main bedroom with his and hers dressing rooms; three of the bedrooms are upstairs and face the canal. A family room that works as a television room or office. Every floor is laid in oversized irregular marble slabs, the doors are antique and hand carved on both faces, and the ironwork, the great chandelier and the art are part of the sale. Central air conditioning, water softening, a hydro pump, film coated 6 mm glazing, Salam and Canadian hardwoods, and solar panels.

The terrace is the reason to buy it: marble underfoot, a full size pool, a palapa with dining for a crowd, sunset over the canal, and services already run for a jacuzzi and pergola. The dock takes a boat on the canal that leads to the marina and the sea.

The neighbouring house, Caimán 211, is offered by the same owner and listed separately.

A four bedroom, four bathroom villa on an 800 square meter lot inside Tulum Country Club, with two pools, a private rooftop terrace and the club’s golf course, beach club and 24 hour security around it. MXN 33,000,000, about $1,941,176 USD.

The villa

Two floors in finished concrete and wood, built around an open living and dining room that runs the depth of the house and opens through full height glass onto a covered terrace and the garden. A glass sided stair rises through a double height hall to the bedrooms above. Four bedrooms and four bathrooms, the bedrooms with concrete finished walls, wood wardrobes, ceiling fans and air conditioning. The lot is 800 square meters, most of it lawn, with a pool set into a wood deck off the terrace and a lounge under an umbrella beside it. On the roof, a second pool and a terrace over the treeline. Night lighting runs through the garden and along the pool.

The house comes with its furniture as photographed, a large round dining table, and outdoor lounges front and back. It is finished and furnished, not a plan.

Tulum Country Club

A gated golf community on the road between Tulum and the beach, with controlled access and 24 hour security. Owners use the golf course, a clubhouse with swimming pool, spa and fitness facilities, tennis and paddle courts, the community’s beach club, restaurants and walking trails through the jungle.

Price

MXN 33,000,000, about $1,941,176 USD converted at 17 to the dollar; the seller prices in pesos and the final figure follows the exchange rate on the day of payment. Resale of a completed home.

Finished four bedroom villas on a lot this size inside the club rarely come to market; most of what is offered at Tulum Country Club is a model home still to be built. For the floor plan, the video and a viewing, get in touch and we will arrange it.

Villa Albatros is one of only four villas in its enclave in Puerto Aventuras, three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms on the oceanfront with direct beach access.

The villa

Two levels, 2,960 square feet, sold fully furnished. A private pool deck outside and the Caribbean in front of it. The interiors were put together by a designer from the United States and the finishes run to hand carved wood, with eco conscious materials through the build and smart home systems fitted.

Only four of them

An enclave of four villas behaves differently from a building of forty. There is no lobby, no lift queue and no committee, and when you are on the beach in front of it you are usually on it alone.

Carrying cost

The HOA is 541 US dollars a month, which for an oceanfront address with a private pool deck sits at the reasonable end of what this community charges.

Puerto Aventuras

Puerto Aventuras is a gated marina community on the coast between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, built around a working marina, a golf course, its own beaches and a dolphin lagoon. Restaurants, shops, a school and a racket club sit inside the gates, security runs around the clock, and the whole place is walkable. It has been established for decades, which is why resale stock here holds up rather than competing with whatever launched last month.

Price

$1,350,000 USD. This is a resale, so the price is the owner’s rather than a developer price list, and there is no construction risk and no payment schedule running alongside a build. What you view is what transfers.

For the full photo set, the floor plan and a viewing, get in touch and we will arrange it.

Casa Lobo is a five bedroom, five and a half bathroom waterfront villa in Puerto Aventuras with its own dock, 980 square metres of construction on a 750 square metre plot.

The villa

The main residence carries the living areas and a covered terrace, with a swimming pool that runs a full 25 metre lap lane and an outdoor lounge beside it. Upstairs are bedrooms, offices and a private patio. Covered parking for three cars.

What makes it unusual

Two independent studios with their own exterior access sit alongside the main house, which is what makes this work for a family that needs separation, for multigenerational living, or for letting part of the property while using the rest. The room configurations are convertible rather than fixed.

The private dock is on the water at the end of the plot. A boat is available separately.

Solar panels, a generator and water purification are already in, so the house runs through an outage without drama.

A three bedroom, three and a half bathroom architect designed house bordering the golf course in Puerto Aventuras, 500 metres from the beach, on a 650 square metre plot.

The house

255 square metres of construction over two floors: three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a study, kitchen, laundry and living room. A 35 square metre balcony upstairs, a 60 square metre terrace at ground level with 35 of that covered, and a 60 square metre pool.

Who built it

It was designed by Luis Arjona Arquitectos and completed at the end of 2009, and the drawings confirm 253.45 square metres across the two floors plus the terrace. Much of the furniture, the kitchen and the bathroom fittings were brought from Europe or designed for the house, so they are one off pieces rather than a package.

It transfers move in ready with the contents included.

A four bedroom, four bathroom golf front home on a 480 square metre lot inside Puerto Aventuras, sold fully furnished and ready to use.

The house

Four bedrooms on a flexible plan, the fourth of them lofted, which means it works as a guest suite, an office or a separate rental depending on what you need it for. Vaulted ceilings and bright interiors through the living space.

Outside is where it earns its money: a private pool and terrace looking straight down the fairway. Solar panels are already installed, so the running cost is lower than the size of the house suggests.

Turnkey

It comes furnished and equipped, so it can be lived in or let from the day it transfers. For a buyer who is not local and does not want to spend a season furnishing a house from Cancún, that is most of the work already done.

Kanta Villas is four villas in the jungle of Region 15, Tulum, built by Desarrolladora Veleta Studio as their fifth project in the area. Two have sold. The two that remain are the front villas, four bedrooms and five bathrooms each, sleeping ten.

The villa

Three storeys and a rooftop solarium. The ground and first floors carry the living space and the bedrooms, the second floor opens onto the solarium, and beneath it all there is a cave pool cut into the plot. The living room is sunken under a double height ceiling with a suspended hammock in it, and all four bedrooms have their own bathroom, so nobody in a party of ten is sharing.

2,690 square feet inside, 960 square feet of terrace and garden and 399 square feet of pools, 4,047 square feet of private villa in total. The deed runs to 5,147 square feet once the share of parking and common areas is counted.

Three pools to one house

Each villa has a zen pool at ground level, a skypool on the roof and a private cave pool below, which is the feature the architecture is really built around. Alongside them the four villas share a cenote style cave pool of their own, roughly 283 square metres of it, in the jungle buffer between the houses.

The architecture

Stone, lime render and arches, drawing on Xavier Corberó, with vines run over the parapets so the buildings read as though the jungle is taking them back. It is a Mediterranean vocabulary built in Mayan materials rather than the timber and thatch most of Tulum reaches for, and it is the reason these look like nothing else in Region 15.

Region 15

Region 15 sits inland from the hotel zone with the jungle still around it, close enough to reach the beach road and the town centre quickly but far enough out that the plots are large and the nights are quiet. It is where most of Tulum’s newer villa product has gone.

Price

705,000 US dollars at the presale price, against a list price of 738,500. A turnkey version, delivered furnished and ready to let, is 768,500. Two villas are available and they are identical, so the choice is which side of the plot rather than which house.

For the floor plans, the finish schedule and a site visit, get in touch and we will arrange it.

To each villa: a private zen pool, a rooftop skypool on the solarium, a private cave pool, a terrace and garden, a rooftop terrace and a sunken living room with a suspended hammock.

Shared between the four villas: a cenote style cave pool set in a jungle buffer, a pool terrace lounge, gated parking with CCTV and a night security shift.

Estate Home B is the four bedroom, four and a half bathroom house at Palm Villas, a run of thirty five villas by Sordo Madaleno set along the tenth and eleventh holes of the Gran Coyote golf course inside Corasol.

The house

Three floors, the same cubic architecture as Estate Home A on a slightly tighter plan. The main floor opens through full height glass to a covered terrace and a private pool with the fairway beyond. Bedrooms sit above with ensuite bathrooms and their own terraces, and there is a top floor terrace above that.

3,581 square feet inside and 1,877 outside, 5,458 square feet in total. Worth noting that the outdoor space is very slightly larger than Estate Home A’s, so what you give up against the five bedroom is interior rather than garden.

Which lot

Phase 1 has sold out. Eight lots remain in Phase 3, from 6,361 to 9,536 square feet, and the price follows the lot rather than the house. The entry price is the smallest of the eight.

Corasol

Corasol is a gated master planned community on the coast at Playa del Carmen, built around the Gran Coyote golf course and holding its own stretch of Caribbean shoreline. Palm Villas sits on the fairways rather than the beach, and residents reach the sand through the community’s own access rather than a public one.

How it is delivered

The villas hand over fully equipped: carpentry, doors and windows, oven, stove, extractor, gas grill and dishwasher, with central air conditioning throughout. Delivery runs 13 to 15 months from the 30 per cent down payment and signed contract. Two furniture packages are offered if you want it finished as well as equipped.

Running it

Palm Villas is in the vacation rental programme, so the house can be let when you are not in it, and there is a year round management team on site. Maintenance is 17,400 pesos. Corasol membership is available to purchase rather than included, and that is what opens the golf and the beach club.

Price

From 30,503,000 pesos, about $1,794,000 US dollars at seventeen pesos to the dollar. The developer prices in pesos and the peso figure is the one that governs the contract. Payment runs 30/70, 50/50, 70/30 or 90/10, and a villa is set aside with 100,000 pesos.

For the floor plans, the lot availability and a viewing, get in touch and we will arrange it.

Private swimming pool and garden to each villa, plus the full run of Corasol facilities: the Gran Coyote golf course, the Costa Beach Club with its pools, spa, gym, kids club, gourmet market and restaurants, private beach access, The Park with paddle, tennis and pickleball courts, a batting cage and a playground, a cenote park, organic orchards, a pet friendly park and a year round property management team.

Estate Home A is the five bedroom, six and a half bathroom house at Palm Villas, a run of thirty five villas by Sordo Madaleno set along the tenth and eleventh holes of the Gran Coyote golf course inside Corasol.

The house

Three floors. The main floor holds the chef’s kitchen, the dining room, the living room and a wide covered terrace with a long pool, which is where the house is really lived in. The second floor carries bedrooms with their own sitting areas, terraces and ensuite bathrooms. The top floor is a terrace of its own.

4,597 square feet inside and 1,839 outside, 6,436 square feet in total. The architecture is the cubic, stacked design Sordo Madaleno drew for the scheme, in timber, stone and pale render, with the jungle and the fairway on show through full height glass.

Which lot

Phase 1 has sold out. Eight lots remain in Phase 3, ranging from 6,361 to 9,536 square feet, and the price moves with the lot rather than the house. Tell us how much garden you want and we will show you what is left.

Corasol

Corasol is a gated master planned community on the coast at Playa del Carmen, built around the Gran Coyote golf course and holding its own stretch of Caribbean shoreline. Palm Villas sits on the fairways rather than the beach, and residents reach the sand through the community’s own access rather than a public one.

Villa Natur is a three bedroom, two and a half bathroom villa in La Veleta, 164 square meters of construction across 223 square meters including the exterior, sold fully furnished and turnkey.

The house

Three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms with floor to ceiling windows and large sliding glass doors through several rooms, so the living space opens to the garden rather than looking at it. Two private pools rather than one. A gas stove, private parking and fibre optic internet with wifi through the house.

What is unusual about it

There is no HOA, which is rare in Tulum and takes a recurring cost off the table entirely. The house runs on its own well rather than the municipal supply. Both of those matter more here than they would elsewhere, because HOA fees on Tulum condos have risen sharply and the town water supply is not always dependable.

Turnkey

Sold fully furnished and equipped, so it can be lived in or let from the day it changes hands. It is a jungle villa within walking distance of the town rather than a lot on the far edge of it.

La Veleta

La Veleta sits west of the Tulum town centre and is where the town’s own residents live rather than visit. Shops, bakeries, cafes and restaurants are within walking distance, the beach is about ten minutes by car, and prices sit well below the beach road for the same build quality.

Price

Asking $329,900 USD. It is a resale, so the price is the owner’s rather than a developer price list.

Tuunich is a two bedroom, two and a half bathroom home in La Veleta with a plunge pool set against a stone clad wall in its own courtyard.

The house

Two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms over two floors, with a lit stone staircase running up through the middle of the plan. The ground floor is open, with a white stone kitchen island under a sculptural pendant, a dining area against a textured stone wall, and full height glazing and doors onto the courtyard.

The courtyard

The plunge pool sits in a private courtyard rather than on a roof or a shared deck, walled on both sides and planted, so it is usable at any hour without being overlooked. The house is built in the pale chukum and stone palette that reads as Tulum without the heavy jungle timber.

At this price

Under two hundred and fifty thousand dollars for a two bedroom house with its own pool and its own front door is the part worth noting. Most stock at this level in Tulum is a condo in a building with a shared pool and a monthly fee attached to it.

La Veleta

La Veleta sits west of the Tulum town centre and is where the town’s own residents live rather than visit. Shops, bakeries, cafes and restaurants are within walking distance, the beach is about ten minutes by car, and prices sit well below the beach road for the same build quality.

Price

Asking $249,900 USD. It is a resale, so the price is the owner’s rather than a developer price list.

Villa Kookay is a six bedroom villa in Aldea Zama, over 4,000 square feet, built to split into three independent two bedroom units and back again.

How it works

Three two bedroom lock off units, each with its own kitchen, its own two bathrooms and its own private plunge pool. The ground floor carries a shared terrace and pool. Run as one house it sleeps up to eighteen; run as three it is three separate lettings under one title. That is the reason to buy it rather than a conventional six bedroom.

The build

Tzalam wood against chukum walls and Mayan stone floors, in soft tones that read organic rather than polished. Solar panels are installed. The house has a private well and is currently connected to the municipal supply, and a buyer can switch it back to the well.

Aldea Zama

Steps from cafes, small markets and services, in the planned quarter between the town and the beach road, with paved streets and its own commercial plaza. It is the part of Tulum that functions like a town rather than a jungle lot.

What it suits

A buyer who wants the option of living in part of it and letting the rest, or of letting all three units separately, without owning three properties and paying three sets of costs. Very little in Tulum is built this way from the start, and converting a conventional villa to do it afterwards means three kitchens, three sets of services and a planning problem.

Price

Asking $875,000 USD. It is a resale, so the price is the owner’s and moves with them rather than with a developer price list.

Casa Zorro is a four bedroom, four and a half bathroom villa in Region 15 in Tulum, 3,498 square feet on a 325 square meter lot, sold fully furnished.

The house

Four bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom, under a palapa roof. A fully equipped kitchen opens to the dining area and the living space, and a rooftop lounge sits above. Two private gated parking spaces come with it.

Outside

A private pool sits in a jungle framed setting with room to hang a hammock or eat outside. The lot is enclosed, so the greenery is the boundary rather than a fence, and the rooftop lounge looks out over the canopy rather than at a neighbour.

The numbers

3,498 square feet of construction on a 325 square meter lot puts most of the plot under roof, which is how a four bedroom with four and a half bathrooms fits on a lot this size. Four ensuites means nobody shares, which is the difference between a house that lets well and one that does not.

Region 15

Region 15 is the residential belt west of the Tulum town centre, minutes from the white sand beaches and the town centre without paying beach road prices. It is where most of the town’s own residents actually live, which is why the rental market here runs year round rather than in season only.

Worth saying plainly

The photographs we hold do not do the house justice. It came to us from another agent and the set is what it is. Anyone seriously interested should see it, because the palapa roof and the pool setting read quite differently in person.

Price

Asking $399,900 USD. It is a resale, so the price is the owner’s and moves with them rather than with a developer price list.

Hunab Ku is a five bedroom, six bathroom villa in Aldea Zama, 458 square meters or about 4,930 square feet of construction, known locally for its design.

The house

Five bedrooms and six bathrooms across 458 square meters. Two pools rather than one, an outdoor gym and a rear lounge area, with solar backup installed. The architecture is what the house is known for, built around planted courtyards with the pools set into them rather than pushed to the edge of the plot.

Aldea Zama

Aldea Zama is the planned residential quarter between Tulum town and the beach road, with paved streets, services and its own commercial plaza. It is the part of Tulum that functions like a town rather than a jungle lot, which is why the resale market here is the most liquid in the area.

Running costs

Property taxes ran 48,993 pesos on the most recent bill, which the seller has provided. Solar backup takes the day load, which matters more in Tulum than it does elsewhere because the grid here is not always dependable in storm season.

What it suits

Five bedrooms and six bathrooms at this size is a house for a family who intend to live in it, or a rental that sleeps a large group without anybody sharing a bathroom. Two pools and an outdoor gym push it further towards the second use than most Aldea Zama villas of this size.

Price

Asking $1,195,000 USD. It is a resale, so the price is the owner’s and moves with them rather than with a developer price list.

Villa Orquidea is a golf front estate inside the gated community at Puerto Aventuras, 3,760 square feet of construction on an 8,073 square foot lot, six bedrooms and six bathrooms, sold fully furnished and fully staffed.

The house

Alongside the main house a detached building holds two fully equipped studio suites, which suit guests, extended family or letting. Interiors run solid marble floors, handcrafted stone archways, custom woodwork and open living areas that carry through to covered terraces and the pool. The kitchen has granite counters, solid wood cabinetry and a large central island.

Outside

The pool has a built in spa and natural stone decking with the golf course beyond it, set in mature tropical gardens. A rooftop terrace sits above with room for an outdoor lounge. Solar panels and a backup generator are installed alongside municipal services.

Turnkey

Delivered furnished and equipped with staff in place. It is the larger of the two golf front resales we hold here, six bedrooms against five at Villa Maravilla for thirty six thousand dollars more.

Puerto Aventuras

Puerto Aventuras is the gated marina town between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, with its own golf course, marina, dive centre, schools and shops behind a controlled entrance. It is one of the longest established residential communities on this coast, which is why the housing stock here is mature villas on generous lots rather than new build apartments.

Price

Asking $1,998,000 USD. It is a resale, so the price is the owner’s and moves with them rather than with a developer price list.

Villa Maravilla is a golf front residence inside the gated community at Puerto Aventuras, 3,702 square feet of construction on an 8,073 square foot lot, five bedrooms and five bathrooms, sold fully furnished and fully staffed.

The house

The main residence holds four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with a detached one bedroom guest suite alongside it that works for visitors, staff or letting. A one car garage carries an additional bathroom. Interiors are marble floored with archways, solid wood finishes and high ceilings opening onto covered terraces.

Outside

A large swimming pool with a built in spa sits in mature tropical gardens with open views across the golf course. Covered terraces give shaded lounging and dining, and a rooftop terrace adds open air space above. Solar panels are installed and the kitchen is fully equipped with granite counters, solid wood cabinetry and a central island.

Turnkey

The house is delivered furnished with fixed and loose furniture, equipped, and with staff already in place. It is a resale rather than a new build, so what you see is what transfers.

A three bedroom house on a 250 square meter lot in Region 11, built in 2022 and finished in chukum, the lime and bark render used across the Yucatan. 120 square meters of construction over two levels, a private pool in the garden, a roof terrace, and it sells furnished.

The layout

The ground floor carries one bedroom and a full bathroom, usable as a guest room, a study or a bedroom without stairs. A timber staircase rises to two further bedrooms and a second full bathroom. Kitchen, dining and living run together, with a stone breakfast bar, gas cooktop and a separate service kitchen behind. Joinery is in tropical hardwood.

Outside

The pool sits in a gravel garden under the original trees, with a filtration system and uplighting. A patio sits beyond it. Parking is covered and takes two cars behind a solid timber gate.

The roof terrace

The roof is finished and lit, and the plumbing and electrics for a jacuzzi are run to it. The jacuzzi is not installed, so budget for one.

Room to grow

The structure was built with foundations sized for a third level, and there is room on the footprint to extend sideways. Neither is built. What the house has is the engineering to do it later without starting again.

The owner will also sell the adjoining lot separately, 250 square meters at $900,000 MXN. It is listed here in its own right, and buying both doubles the holding to 500 square meters.

Services

Electricity and internet are connected. Water comes from a private well rather than a municipal main, which is normal here and worth understanding before an offer.

Region 11

Region 11 sits on the town side of Tulum, north of the center, on the grid of numbered avenues, not in a gated development. The seller puts the first shopping center at fourteen minutes and the beaches at fifteen. A working residential area of one and two level houses, about half built out, pricing below the planned districts nearer the coast.

Pricing

The asking price is $4,000,000 MXN. The USD figure is indicative, converted at about 17 pesos to the dollar. The peso figure is the one that stands.
