Since it was found 40 years ago, Cancun offered some of the best options in real estate in Mexico. This fact is largely associated with healthy tourism in the area, which again in 2010 outpaced the rest of the Caribbean as a preferred destination for tourists.
One of the most important moments for 2010 is that it surpassed its closest match in the Dominican Republic by more than 2 million tourists.
In addition to the direct benefits that healthy travel partnerships create with condo owners who are rented to vacationers, it also benefits those who buy homes in Cancun in the city center; strong tourist numbers bring increased investment in roads and infrastructure, as well as new private investment in shops, services, restaurants and activities such as golf and marinas.
Kuntsunts also benefit. As tourism continues to grow, Cancun is quickly becoming the largest city in this region of Mexico (the Yucatan Peninsula). This means that the demand for land, as well as completed homes or development projects for condominium and commercial use will also increase, This means that land investments in Cancun will still be a savvy investment choice.
According to statistics from 2010, they were collected from January to September for Cancun and the area that extends to Tulum, known as the Riviera Maya, which has more than 67,000 hotel rooms. During this period, 4.7 million tourists arrived.
This compares with the second destination, the Dominican Republic, which offers a similar number of hotel rooms, but welcomed only 2.7 million visitors. This difference would be even greater, given the end of the year in which Cancun received another 200,000 visitors at the Cancun climate change summit.
The Cancun Convention Bureau and Visitors (CVB) has high hopes for this winter holiday season, and next year there is optimism to strengthen the image of a destination worldwide, using a 30 percent increase in its advertising budget, which adds an additional 200 million pesos about 90 million US dollars).
These numbers also indicate the growing reality that the media image of crime in Mexico is inaccurate for most of the country. New holidaymakers, as well as property buyers who have not visited Mexico before, are gaining more confidence as neighbors, family and friends return from Mexico with very positive reports about safety and quality of life.
