Property Information

Real Estate:

Real Property Included

Living Accommodation:

The property includes 12 residential units, plus ground-floor spaces that may support manager/caretaker accommodation, guest services, or other operational uses depending on the buyer’s strategy.

Location:

LunaSea is located in Tankah Bay, a desirable seaside community in the Tulum region of the Riviera Maya, Mexico. The property sits in a low-density coastal setting with public beach access directly across the street and is within walking distance of Casa Cenote, one of the area’s most recognized natural attractions. Tankah Bay offers a quieter, more exclusive alternative to central Tulum while remaining accessible to restaurants, services, and regional tourism demand.

Premises Details:

The premises consist of a boutique 12-unit seaside building with 10 ocean-view units, a rooftop terrace with panoramic Caribbean views, pool, common areas, service spaces, and a ground-floor amenity area with a functioning kitchen. The property also includes a bonus 480 m2 adjacent lot, offering additional flexibility for future planning, repositioning, or expansion.

Size in square feet:

+19,000 sq ft total built footprint, 11,367 sq ft primary lot plus 5,167 sq ft adjacent lot

Planning Consent:

Existing construction and supporting property documents are available for review. The condominium regime process has not been completed. Any future regime completion, expansion, conversion, or operational changes would be subject to permits, zoning, municipal approvals, legal review, and buyer due diligence.

Business Operation

Expansion Potential:

LunaSea includes a bonus 480 m2 adjacent lot that creates meaningful flexibility for future planning, expansion, or repositioning. The property also benefits from practical access for potential rear-lot construction, supported by an adjacent public easement that helps preserve open side access and prevents future construction directly along that edge. Existing ground-floor amenity and service spaces may also be reconfigured to support hospitality operations, guest services, food and beverage, wellness, storage, or additional income-producing uses, subject to permits, zoning, and buyer due diligence.

Competition / Market:

The Tulum and Riviera Maya hospitality markets are competitive, with ongoing growth in boutique hotels, vacation rentals, and branded residential offerings. LunaSea’s competitive advantage is its combination of scale, Tankah Bay location, ocean-view inventory, rooftop terrace, public beach access, walkability to Casa Cenote, and strong price-per-m2 positioning compared with current comparable offerings reviewed in the area. Future success will depend on the buyer’s operating strategy, positioning, design upgrades, marketing, and ability to create a differentiated guest experience.

Reasons for selling:

The property has been owned and developed over more than 10 years by a retired Santa Barbara-based attorney. The sale is motivated by retirement, travel, and the seller’s continued philanthropic work, including his involvement with Keep Kids in School.
