Dear Reader,
On Friday, I told you about a wave rippling across North America. A wave that demands the best...and gets it. A wave committed to a better quality of life...to living longer and healthier and happier than ever before.
That wave is responsible for some of North America's finest communities...places that tune into the idea of an active, fulfilled, lifestyle. But we've found a community in Mexico that offers all this...and where you can buy luxury homes from $158,000.
Mornings in this place will start with yoga on glass platforms over mythical Mayan caverns. Then the day begins...maybe a stroll along the white sand beach, with the turquoise Caribbean caressing your feet. Or a visit to an ancient temple... followed by a leap from limestone crags to crystal-clear cenote waters.
In the evenings, you can learn salsa and the traditions of the ancient Maya with your friends and neighbors. You can stay fit in the gym or by swimming the lap pools that weave their way through this complex. And finally, you'll have enough time to work on your golf game. You're not idle. You're active and engaged. Sharper, fitter and feeling younger than you have in decades. Ready to take on the world again. You're living at Tao.
This is developer Benjamin Beja's vision. It is fast becoming reality. Construction at Tao is progressing. The first buyers will move in at the end of this year.
But, something special is happening on April 13th-16th. It's the official ground breaking for the Tao Center... and you are invited. You'll have to act fast though. There are only 22 spaces available for this special event. Registration opened with the sending of this email.
More about this special celebration in a minute. First, let me remind you about the area developer Benjamin Beja has chosen to realize his vision.
Tulum, and the Riviera Maya
This is a pristine, unspoiled paradise...home to a protected biosphere and UNESCO world heritage site, ancient Mayan ruins and lush green jungle. It's the quintessential Caribbean.
Just 80 miles from Cancun, the sugar-white sand beaches and clear blue waters here are the finest in Mexico. I'm talking about Tulum. Long overshadowed by its big brother up the coast, this tranquil getaway managed to stay off the radar...attracting a chic and trendy set looking to escape from crowded resorts.
The Tao project is set in the upscale Gran Bahia resort near Tulum. This resort is dotted with multi-million dollar homes. In fact, the average price of a home here is more than $1 million. Yet you can buy into this resort for a fraction of that cost...enjoy the five-star amenities on your doorstep... and look forward to appreciation and rental income potential.
The resort boasts a 27-hole golf course...three hotels...a choice of restaurants and bars...entertainment, shopping, a medical clinic...and a coral-sand beach washed by the sun-dappled Caribbean.
Vacationers come year-round to its hotels. They can pay $1,155 a week to stay here. And they're clearly happy with what they're getting for their money. Hotel occupancy rates averaged 88% over the last 10 years.
A huge plus of owning in an established resort like this is that the infrastructure is already in, with $100 million invested to date to get the resort looking the way it does today. The finishes and materials are high-end. Design parameters clearly set out what the resort (and homes within it) will look like. The houses here are sleek and modern--with clean elegant lines, and stylish interiors. They certainly look like million-dollar homes. And with the Tao condos, you'll get a similar design and feel as those much pricier homes...with a much smaller price tag. In fact, you can own a luxury condo for $800 a month...
The Tao condos are right on the resort's world-class golf course. The new 7,600-square-meter clubhouse...where you can enjoy tennis courts, relaxing at the spa, and dining in fine restaurants overlooking the cenotes and the golf course, is slated to open in the coming weeks.
And don't forget that gorgeous Caribbean beach. A regular shuttle bus takes you to and from the beach and main resort amenities, which residents and visitors can take full advantage of.
The Tao Center will be the focal point of the project and the realization of Benjamin's vision. You are invited this April 13th-16th for the Tao Center Chill which marks the ground breaking for the Tao Center.
Benjamin's vision for Tao is a community where residents will engage with their neighbors and stay mentally and physically active. His architect is making this his number one priority through the design process. Delivery of the Tao Center is slated for the end of this year.
This special event will give you a taste of the Tao lifestyle. For four days, you will stay a short stroll from the site for the Tao condos. You will experience this luxury resort community, the Tulum area...and the new you.
On April 14th, you will participate in a very special event to mark the ground breaking for the new Tao Center.
I strongly urge you to sign-up now. I expect this event will fill up fast. Numbers are strictly limited to 22 spots. After that, the event is closed. The idea is to get an intimate group of like-minded new friends together.
Just get yourself to Cancun airport and Benjamin's team will shuttle you to the resort (you will need to cover the cost of your return transfer). You'll stay in five-star luxury. You'll dine in the resort's gourmet restaurants. Your drinks...even cocktails at sunset... are included.
The token cost to readers of these alerts for this special event: $180.
That's not a typo...one hundred and eighty bucks covers all of this for the first 22 readers to stake their claim to a spot.
Sign-up now. I can't promise how many days...or even hours...this event will stay open.

Editor's Note: If you thought this type of condo in this type of community was outside your price range... think again. Luxury 969- square feet condos start at $158,000. Developer financing makes them even more affordable, with monthly payments from $800. Come and find out more on this trip. Donna is standing by to book your spot here.
