Tulum has transformed from a sleepy fishing town into a global wellness hub. For U.S. expats, it offers stunning beaches, boutique developments, yoga studios, and eco-luxury living. It’s perfect for retirees who want a slower pace but still want to stay connected to an international community.
Lifestyle: Bohemian, eco-conscious, wellness-driven.
Community: A mix of digital nomads, expats, and retirees.
Investment Insight: Vacation rental yields here can reach 8–12%.
IPA Property Highlight: Ubuntu Residences — eco-chic condos designed for both lifestyle and rental flexibility.
Just an hour from Guadalajara, Lake Chapala is home to one of the largest U.S. retiree communities in the world. The climate is spring-like year-round, the cost of living is low, and English is widely spoken in the area.
Lifestyle: Relaxed lakeside living with a strong community feel.
Community: Thousands of U.S. and Canadian retirees.
Healthcare: Access to Guadalajara’s excellent private hospitals.
Why It Works: For retirees who want affordability and a built-in support network, Lake Chapala is unbeatable.
For retirees who want to be surrounded by history and art, San Miguel de Allende is perfect. A UNESCO World Heritage city, it offers cobblestone streets, colonial architecture, vibrant markets, and a thriving cultural scene.
Lifestyle: Artsy, historic, cultural.
Community: A large and established expat base.
Cost of Living: Affordable by U.S. standards, especially for property outside the city centre.
Why It Works: Ideal for retirees looking for a rich cultural environment and a slower pace of life.
Playa del Carmen combines a beach lifestyle with convenience. With direct flights from many U.S. cities into Cancun, it’s one of the most accessible spots in Mexico. It’s livelier than Tulum, with shopping centres, international restaurants, and nightlife — but you can still find quiet residential areas.
Lifestyle: Modern beach living with an urban twist.
Community: Younger expats, retirees, and families.
Healthcare: Excellent private hospitals in nearby Cancun.
Why It Works: Perfect for retirees who want the Caribbean but don’t want to feel too isolated.
On Mexico’s Pacific coast, Puerto Vallarta offers beaches, mountains, and one of the most LGBTQ+ friendly communities in Latin America. Retirees love the mix of cultural events, modern amenities, and affordable living.
Lifestyle: Scenic, welcoming, and vibrant.
Community: A large U.S. expat base, especially LGBTQ+ retirees.
Investment Insight: Strong vacation rental demand with U.S. and Canadian tourists.
Why It Works: Combines coastal living with inclusivity and strong community ties.
Proximity to the U.S.: Easy to visit family or split time between countries.
Affordability: Lower cost of living, cheaper healthcare, and accessible housing.
Community: Large U.S. retiree populations make settling in easier.
Residency: Mexico’s Temporary Residency Visa is one of the simplest in the world.
