Mexico — The idyllic beaches of Cancún, Tulum, Los Cabos, and Puerto Vallarta have become attractive destinations for investors and foreign buyers in recent years. However, record-high housing prices for beachfront properties, along with economic uncertainty, have begun to impact the pace of sales for this type of real estate.

A breakdown by locality shows that Puerto Vallarta in Jalisco positioned itself as the leading tourist destination for consolidated housing sales in the first quarter of 2025, with a total of 282 units, according to figures from the consultancy 4S Real Estate.

In Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, 202 housing sales were recorded in this period, while 195 were consolidated in Cancún. These levels are significantly lower than the figures recorded in the same period a year ago.
