DCP INTERNATIONAL SELECTED TO CREATE NEW RESIDENCE CLUB IN LA PAZ, MEXICO
Luxurious CostaBaja Resort Community Offers New Real Estate Opportunity on the Sea of Cortez
Chicago, IL – February 28, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — CostaBaja, the highly acclaimed beachfront resort community in La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico (www.CostaBaja.com) announced today it has retained DCP International (DCP), pioneers of the residence club real estate concept, to consult on the structuring, marketing and sale of its new fractional ownership opportunity. The Residence Club at CostaBaja is the first and only residence club to be offered in La Paz.
“We believe the residence club concept is a perfect fit for today’s real estate market and for CostaBaja in particular,” said CostaBaja CEO Alejandro Yberri. “Our research showed that DCP is the most experienced and successful consultant in this specialized field. They have created a unique offering for us that utilizes a portion of our existing condominium inventory and meets the different needs of our Mexican, American and Canadian buyers.”
Idyllically located on the Sea of Cortez, the gated, 550-acre CostaBaja features a luxury hotel and spa, a spectacular Gary Player Signature golf course, a 250-slip, double-basin marina with an adjacent retail and commercial complex, an elegant beach club with waterfront restaurant, infinity edge swimming pool and water sports, tennis courts and a variety of vacation home options.
The Sea of Cortez receives 340-plus days of sunshine per year — more sunlight than any other sea — and is an environmentally-preserved ecosystem hosting a wealth of marine wildlife that is unequalled anywhere in the northern hemisphere. Jacques Cousteau aptly called it, “The Aquarium of the World.” The placid turquoise waters are ideal for a huge assortment of water sports and eco-adventures. It is a world-class sport fishing, scuba diving and deep-sea snorkeling destination. It is also a boater’s dream, beckoning with deserted islands waiting to be explored, as well as pristine, white sand beaches, secret coves, and uninhabited islets — perfect for a kayaking, sailing, or cruising expedition.
The self-contained CostaBaja is a tranquil seaside enclave that is only minutes from the city of La Paz. While most of Mexico’s coastal resort towns have relinquished their charm and sense of place, La Paz has retained the authentic, safe, small-town appeal of Old Baja. Busy and charming, historic yet contemporary, La Paz boasts a wide selection of fine cuisine and plenty of colorful shops and markets, museums, galleries and theaters.
The Residence Club at CostaBaja comprises 16 luxury three-bedroom residences boasting sea, golf and marina views. Ownership includes a CostaBaja Club Platinum Membership that provides privileges at the CostaBaja golf club and beach club. Each residence comes with a private electric cart for fun, clean transportation within CostaBaja.
