The Developments of Puerto Vallarta 2003
The Developments of Puerto Vallarta 2003
For the past five years, Vallarta’s real estate market has been driven forward by developers who continue to produce a wide array of products for an increasingly more sophisticated buyer.
These developers range from small, single-family homebuilders who produce one or two homes a year to “mega” developments that actually are almost self-sufficient communities offering a wide-range of real estate opportunities, not to mention amenities such as golf, tennis and boating.
Development in the past was mostly done by local contractors and builders; however, most of the new projects underway today are being done by outside companies, from either Guadalajara or Mexico City, or the United States. For the first time, Vallarta is seeing “Resort Specialists” entering the market, marketing groups with years of expertise in other resort communities. They are helping to “raise the bar” regarding quality and options available not just for themselves but for every developer around the bay. The outcome can only mean better product and services for Vallarta in general and for those interested in having a home here.
This special advertising section features nearly every real estate developer presently building homes or condominiums around Banderas Bay. It’s a very handy guide to what’s available and at what price. For further information, you can contact the developments directly or go through your real estate broker, who is welcome at all these projects.

Paradise Coves
Costa Banderas
The concept behind Paradise Coves was to create an upscale, yet ecologically sound, residential neighborhood that respects the flora and fauna and diverse marine life found along its 820 feet (250 meters) of coastline. The planned community was designed by a group of French architects, working closely with well-respected local firms of architects and engineers responsible for designing the infrastructure and services – all of which have extensive experience in the luxury home market in both Europe and Mexico. Paradise Coves comprises 12 homes on more than eight acres of beachfront land, with lots ranging from 13,000 square feet (1,209 square meters) to 24,500 square feet (2,277 square meters) – all with 30 meters of frontage. The generous size of the home sites was planned so that owners can enjoy the privacy of their own space, from which they can walk through the specially designed hiking trails to the residents’ beach club located on the shore of the cove from whence the community takes its name. Lots start at $275,000 USD, with finished homes from $600,000 USD. To date, the development is 50% sold. Represented by La Punta Realty, info@puntarealty.com, (329) 291-6420.
