New Hotel Zone; Playa Mundo Maya by GPS-Group is the New Holiday Destination in Isla Aguada, Yucatan
Playa Mundo Maya, a new boutique eco-hotel destination, is under construction on the Yucatan coast, located out of the sargassum and hurricane path in the Gulf of Mexico side of the Yucatan Peninsula in Isla Aguada, which just recently has been appointed "Pueblo Magico" - a top holiday destination in Mexico.
Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, January 18, 2021 --(FOX News)--
Isla Aguada has the most attractive white sandy beach in the State of Campeche; the area is set to be the brand-new luxury holiday destination: Playa Mundo Maya.
The first holiday rental villas and eco-hostel "La Playita" are ready. Several projects are under construction, and many more will be developed in the 42 km-long beaches to the north of Isla Aguada.
The Global Property Service Group (GPS-Group), the biggest landowner in the area, was just recently authorized to build the first eco-hotel resort and marine life observatory, and numerous eco-hotels, beach clubs, spas, retreats, and boutiques will be built.
Mayan Train railway and Tulum Luxury airport projects start operating in 2023 with over 3 million tourists in Mundo Maya Area.
The US$10 billion railway project would link towns, cities, and tourist attractions in five southern states. It is expected to transport 8,000 passengers per day. The train project will trigger real estate investment of at least 150 billion pesos (the US$17.9 billion), according to the chief of the National Tourism Promotion Fund (Fonatur). The government says that the construction and operation of the Mayan Train will generate employment and economic prosperity in the whole southeast of Mexico.
Both the government and the GPS-Group aim to transform the island into the most attractive sustainable tourist destination in the Yucatan Peninsula.
The hotel zone will benefit local people as the land price is expected to increase, and residents are opening their businesses to serve all the visiting tourists. Local people can run every type of business to respond to the growing market’s demand. They will feel delighted with more job opportunities, which ultimately raise their standard of living.
Investors have turned their attention to Playa Mundo Maya, as the demand for hotel rooms is huge as Isla Aguada town has just under 100 hotel rooms available where other Pueblos Magicos have an average of 30,000 hotel rooms.
The most attractive part for investors is that the land price on the island is much lower than the other beach areas developed in the Yucatan Peninsula, where the huge demand from international hotel companies has been already pushing prices much higher in recent years. Regarding the local real estate company: Isla Aguada Real Estate, the average oceanfront land square meter price on Isla Aguada beach is now USD 77 per square meter compared to over USD 350 per square meter Riviera Maya, Quintana Roo coastline. Land price in Playa Mundo Maya is expected to increase strongly in the near future.
For many hotel owners who have faced last year's severe seaweed problem in the Mexican Caribbean coastline, Playa Mundo Maya presents a natural choice to build their second eco-hotel as the millions of tons of seaweed have been piling up in Cancun, Riviera Maya, and nearby beaches in Tulum, Playa del Carmen, and Holbox.
Playa Mundo Maya is located on another side of the Yucatan Peninsula on the Mexican Gulf's safe side, which is away from the sargassum path and the high-risk of hurricane impact.
Isla Aguada and Playa Mundo Maya have all the same ingredients for success as Playa Del Carmen and Cancun had 20 or 30 years ago, including pristine beaches and lagoon, Mayan ruins, and world-class fishing and diving, to name a few.
By the time the Mayan Train railway is operating, the Playa Mundo Maya will be competing with the world's most attractive destinations for honeymoons and health retreats embracing the heart of Mexican culture.

Developers turn attention toward Campeche state
2020 By Megan Dillinger
TRAVEL WEEKLY
INSIGHT, MEXICO INSIGHT
As Merida and the rest of the state of Yucatan come into the spotlight, travelers looking for the next hot destination are setting their sights on Campeche. Developers are taking notice and are already on track to start developing the next "Mexican riviera."
Campeche, directly to the west of the state of Yucatan, is one of the three states that make up the Yucatan Peninsula, along with Yucatan and Quintana Roo. With an extended coastline that hugs the Gulf of Mexico, and the rest of the state shrouded in undeveloped jungle, it presents a wealth of off-the-beaten-path travel opportunities that investors and travelers in the know are capitalizing on. In fact, according to Expedia, Campeche is one of the top trending travel destinations for 2020.
$200 million is being poured into Sabancuy, Campeche, on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. The destination is being hailed as Playa Mundo Maya. The tourism project will take up an area of 148 acres, which will include bungalows, two pools, a restaurant, beach club, shops, a spa facility and an exhibition center. There is also talk of more eco-hotels being developed in the future.
The new "hotel zone" is being designed with the traffic from the Mayan train route in mind, opening up new beach destinations all along the edge of the peninsula that have been previously overshadowed by Cancun. Today, Sabancuy is a quiet inlet with powdery white sand that is often the nesting ground for turtles. The closest city is Ciudad del Carmen, which is where the nearest airport is located. While a completion date has not been announced, the permits have been approved to break ground.
The development of the coastline is going to highlight the rest of what the state of Campeche has to offer, from dozens of Mayan ruins to the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, and the Historic Fortified Town of Campeche, which is a Unesco World Heritage Site, and one of the most postcard-perfect examples of colonial Mexican architecture.
The state has 17 archaeological sites, including Calakmul, which is the largest Mayan city that has ever been discovered. In fact, the ruins are recognized by Unesco as a Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Within the jungle, which makes up more than half of the state, there are more than 86 species of mammals, including jaguars and pumas.
Campeche has bones for the luxury community, as well, with gorgeously renovated historic haciendas that have been turned into five-star hotels. Take, for example, the Hacienda Puerto Campeche, a Luxury Collection Hotel, located directly in the Centro Historic of Campeche's capital. The brightly colored oasis within the downtown is a haven of hospitality. The 16th century retreat features beautiful gardens, stunning rooms, a beautiful restaurant, and a pool that has been built out of the crumbling ruins of the former hacienda that used to live on this land.
Outside the city, the Hacienda Uayamon was built in 1700 and today provides an urban respite to enjoy the countryside outside the capital city. Dark wood and colonial furniture set the tone for enjoying beautiful suites (some with private pools), fine dining and the raw, untamed jungle of the wilderness of Campeche. One of the best perks of the hotel is strolling through the candlelit gardens, or taking the quick trip to the Mayan archaeological site, Edzna.
While destinations like Merida and the coast of the Yucatan are picking up steam, Campeche is waiting in the wings. Now is the perfect time to see all that this state has to offer, before everyone else catches on.
