Located just a short distance off the northeast coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, Isla Mujeres is a small, lovely island in the Mexican Caribbean Sea. Meaning "Island of Women," Isla Mujeres was named after the Mayan moon goddess, Ix Chel, by Spanish explorers in the 16th century. At just five miles long and a half-mile wide, Isla Mujeres is one of the eight municipalities of the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. With a growing population of over 11,000, Isla Mujeres real estate is a thriving market.
The beautiful little island is just 13 km northeast of the popular tourist destination of Cancun, and is part of the Riviera Maya tourism district. Known as the perfect place for a vacation, the tourism industry of Isla Mujeres has grown substantially since the 1970s. The island is well known for hosting many daytrippers, as ferry boats run every half hour during daylight between Isla Mujeres and Puerto Juarez or Puerto Cancun. The area is home to several beautiful coral reefs, and snorkeling and scuba diving are quite popular among both tourists and residents.
In addition to the tourism industry, Isla Mujeres real estate is rapidly growing. With an abundance of both rental and permanent housing accommodations, the wide variety of Isla Mujeres homes range from cozy studio apartments to large island villas, and from charming haciendas to enchanting cottages by the sea. Isla Mujeres beachfront property is steadily rising in value. Even as the area grows, Isla Mujeres real estate is able to maintain its small island charm and tranquility, much to the pleasure of the locals.
In addition to fantastic snorkeling and scuba diving, Isla Mujeres beachfront properties offer access to an array of fabulous shopping, dining, and cultural opportunities.
