Acre by acre, or more aptly, “hectare by hectare”, the Riviera Maya on Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula is slowly but surely becoming a new American colony, not unlike Baja last decade. Like something from the days of the American Land Rush of the 1800’s, this scarce land was wild, sparsely settled, and populated almost entirely by the Mayan Indians less than a decade ago.
The Mayans are now selling their virgin, newly-titled, sacred lands for the first time in modern history. This creation and availability of entirely new Mexico real estate is due in part to recent changes in Mexico’s laws allowing the Mayans to title and sell their beach property to foreigners. This precious, rarified piece of coastline is proclaimed to be the most beautiful in the world by the likes of Condé Nast Traveller, The Travel Channel, Orbitz and a host of other critics.
