Who develops La Vela Puerto Cancún?
The project is by Girault Desarrollos, a Mexican firm with four generations of experience in premium residential development. Their focus is creating the best architectural spaces with high-quality finishes. La Vela is one of their flagship projects inside Puerto Cancún, executed as three low-rise towers to preserve a stable residential character and maximize integration with the golf course and marina.
What unit types does La Vela offer?
Six distinct typologies: 300 m² apartments (4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms), 400 m² apartments (4 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms), 300 m² Garden Houses with 80 m² private garden + jacuzzi, 400 m² Garden Houses with 80 m² garden + jacuzzi + studio, 300 m² Penthouses with 250 m² private rooftop, and 400 m² Penthouses with 250 m² rooftop + studio. All units feature 4 bedrooms, family room, service quarters, laundry, and terrace.
What amenities does La Vela include?
Sixteen on-site amenities: private marina with 24 berths for boats up to 45 ft, three pools with lap lane, gym, spa, restaurant, bar, paddle tennis court, beach volleyball, yoga studio, kids club, adults' lounge, sun deck, palapas, gardens, and business center. Additionally, each residence can purchase a Puerto Cancún condominium Share for access to the South Beach Club, La Aldea, and the 18-hole Tom Weiskopf-designed golf course.
Does La Vela allow short-term rental (Airbnb)?
No. The internal condominium rules at La Vela prohibit rentals under 30 days, aligned with most premium developments in Puerto Cancún. This protects the stable residential character and long-term appreciation. Units can be rented on a traditional basis (annual or multi-month) with 4-6% gross yields. The primary return driver here is appreciation (8.8% annually confirmed by AMPI Cancún) plus premium lifestyle within a community of stable neighbors.
Does fideicomiso apply for foreign buyers?
Yes. Puerto Cancún is within the restricted zone (50 km from coast), so foreign buyers acquire via bank trust (fideicomiso), a standard legal vehicle regulated by Mexico's Foreign Investment Law. Approximate cost: $2,500-4,000 USD initial setup plus ~$600 USD annual maintenance. Term: 50 years, renewable indefinitely. Grants all full ownership rights including use, rental, modification, inheritance, and sale.
Why is La Vela nearly sold out?
Three concrete reasons: (1) finite scale — only 105 total residences across three low-rise towers, no expansion possible under Puerto Cancún master plan regulations; (2) competitive ticket for Puerto Cancún — entry at $27.9M MXN and top at $38M MXN is attractive vs Alba, Blume, Velmari, or Shark Tower; (3) exceptional amenities — 16 on-site amenities plus access to the Tom Weiskopf golf course and beach club. This combination drew strong demand from HNW Mexican buyers and international expats since project launch.
