Punta Esmeralda has been one of the best-selling real estate projects in Riviera Nayarit for a number of reasons. Set between Bucerias and La Cruz, two quaint seaside towns just a 1/2-hour north of the airport, Punta Esmeralda is an oceanfront gated community situated on a 20-acre parcel offering 232 townhouses, villas and luxury condominiums. Integrated into architecturally landscaped jungle terrain, all homes feature an ocean view. A half-mile of direct beach frontage extends to offer over 10 miles of walking beach.
The ensemble of townhouses, villas and condominiums are distributed in clusters in a cascading architectural effect with pool and relaxation areas disbursed throughout. Landscape architecture is a key focal point. Architects have respected a contemporary Mexican Pacific style, employing generous use of exotic woods, palapa thatch and stone detailing for a true coastal ambiance. Finishing is of the highest standards, designed to meet North American expectations.
The units feature mini-split air conditioning, marble floors, granite countertops and luxury finishing. Property amenities include eight swimming pools, beach clubs, gym and spa, restaurant with property and rental management services. Two funicular tram elevators provide access to the beach. Close proximity to both La Cruz and Bucerias provides easy access to restaurants and shopping, including the new Riviera Nayarit Marina.
Perhaps one of the best selling points for Punta Esmeralda is that it is complete. No worries about pre-construction, which is a concern these days, as the project is basically built out so prospective purchaser can see what they are getting and have the opportunity to talk with owners that have owned now for a number of years.
The talent of renowned architect Gerardo Ulate and Grupo Gómez Vázquez Aldana through Casas de México, has resulted in a singular and enviably beautiful residential community perfect for vacation or full-time living. The developer, Grupo Real del Mar, have proven themselves to deliver quality product, with successful projects such as Real del Mar, La Joya and their most recent project, Alamar in La Cruz.
All units are surrounded by lush landscaping and multiple green areas including: private beach clubs, eight swimming pools, tennis courts, playground for children, gym and spa, a jogging trail, tropical gardens, restaurants/snack bars and of course, the beach itself, making this a truly unique development to enjoy the Puerto Vallarta lifestyle.


Now is the time to discover traditional, laid back "La Cruz" with its small shops and restaurants, unpretentious accommodations and burgeoning music scene. The main square overlooking the ocean is a good place to soak it all in, while watching fishermen mend their nets. Little known to foreign tourists until recently, life in this rustic fishing village still meanders at a leisurely manana pace. Still small-town Mexico to be sure, but La Cruz now has a a world-class marina with slips for 400 boats, a seaside promenade, repair shop, outdoor theater, restaurants and more that is drawing international attention. And luxurious residential communities are springing up around La Cruz catering to the increasing numbers of North Americans who have already discovered it. La Cruz also has some excellent restaurants to select from.
