Riviera Maya neighborhoods: where to buy

Choosing between Riviera Maya neighborhoods is the first big decision when you buy here. Each town has a different rhythm, a different price range and a different kind of buyer. Click the map above, or use the guides below, to compare them before you visit.

Cancún and the north

The north has the international airport, the most hospitals and schools and the widest range of property, from city condos to quiet beaches and islands.

Playa del Carmen and the central coast

The central coast is the most walkable part of the Riviera Maya, with an easy drive to the airport and a mix of town living, gated communities and calm bays.

Tulum and the south

The south trades city services for nature: jungle and beach in Tulum, a biosphere reserve, the lagoon of Bacalar and the state capital at the Belize border.

How to choose

There is no single best place. The right one depends on how you will use the property, how often you will be here and your budget. Full time residents usually value airports, hospitals and schools; part time owners often put the beach and walkability first. For background on the region, see Quintana Roo on Wikipedia.
