Year end Holidays and the Meaning of luxury.

Year end holidays in the Riviera Maya

When you think about year-end parties, the most common thing is to imagine the snow, the sleighs, and the streets full of colored lights in a city in the northern hemisphere. However, for those who live in the southern hemisphere, it is a season of heat, sun, and beach. This is New Year’s Eve in the Riviera Maya.

Ultimately, the holiday experience depends on where in the world the holiday season finds us.
For those of us who live in the Riviera Maya, these are days of sun, sand, and sea. The temperature is very pleasant without reaching the extreme heat of summer, but warm enough to wear a bikini, go to the beach and enjoy the Caribbean sun.

This is why the Riviera Maya is one of the most popular destinations for tourists looking to escape the cold and gray days in the northern United States, Canada, and Europe, so it is very common to find them sitting in a “palapa”, enjoying an exotic drink and perhaps some exquisite seafood dish.
The temperature of the Caribbean Sea is one of the main factors that influence the mildness of the climate while inviting you to swim or, failing that, to dive, taking advantage of the incredible clarity of the water and the opportunity to encounter abundant and spectacular marine flora and fauna.

The hotels dress up and their decoration is fantastic with a mixture of materials that make us see that it is Christmas, but Christmas in the tropics. A thousand and one events are designed to entertain guests, be it gastronomy or theme dinners, with shows almost every night and parties that regularly last until dawn.

For the Mexican Caribbean, winter is the driest season since, although the humidity may be at 90%, it hardly rains and the days are sunny. Temperatures range between 22 and 30 degrees Celsius during the day and cool at night, so it is always advisable to travel with a light sweater or scarf. However, we must clarify that part of “almost no rain.” We are in the tropics and the weather can be somewhat capricious. Especially concerning storms that are accompanied by a lot of rain and wind.

During the end of the year, romantic dinners on the beach are very popular, since it is not so hot and you can enjoy unforgettable moments during the sunset while enjoying some culinary wonder or a glass of wine.

If you want to make the experience of owning a property your own where you can spend the New Year in the Caribbean, do not hesitate to contact us at Select Riviera Maya Real Estate. Surely we have that property you are looking for to not only find this Lifestyle but also secure your heritage.

What does a luxury property really looks like?

“Luxury is the fundamental refusal to limit one’s life to survival”, in fact, this image of life is found in the real estate field, maximizing the potential of goods, in particular offering a situation of excellent comfort and a certain prestige, and a rarity that the client will not find anywhere else. Then you will be able to take advantage of a large and sumptuous living space on a daily basis, allowing you to achieve a relaxed lifestyle. But, what are the characteristics of a high-end home? What is a luxury property really like?

DEFINITION
A basic definition could be the most common, most often found in a real estate agency, that is, a property located in one place, offering exceptional services or exclusive features; buyers are looking for a refuge that combines elegance and pleasure, to live an unforgettable experience. But it would be too simplistic to rely solely on these criteria. In fact, this is a topic that is influenced daily by simple factors, which can strongly influence real estate potential.

CRITERIA

Firstly, several studies of the real estate market of a high-end destination such as Luxembourg have been able to highlight important filters depending on the property. Those surveyed consider that the luminosity of the property influences the threshold of 81%, that the area/location where it is located plays a role in 63%, the housing level in 50%, the presence of a garage/parking space in 44 %, and finally the terrace for 38%. It will be logical to think that these criteria apply almost everywhere in the world and the Riviera Maya is no exception.

The value of a luxury property can therefore be very sensitive to many criteria, among which is indeed the price, subject to numerous comparative studies and highly variable depending on the category of services offered, but above all the Differentiating characteristics: quality, location, environment.

QUALITY, LOCATION, ENVIRONMENT. What is a luxury property really like?

Quality is an essential guarantee of luxury and is generally reflected in the choice of materials, the conception of design, the aesthetic dimension, and also the criterion of charm. The most meticulous and knowledgeable clients of the latest trends will be very confident in the style of the property, and will not hesitate to “arm themselves” with the latest advisers on the matter!

The location of the property will equally influence the feeling of luxury and, of course, the price. The gratifying effects will be, for example, the prestigious neighborhoods, the calm, the proximity of famous places… a criterion that is found in particular in unavoidable neighborhoods such as Beverly Hills, an emblematic symbol of luxury residences that celebrities adore!

In the same spirit, the setting of the property, whether it is located on the sea, in the mountains, or according to the landscapes it offers, will contribute to a luxurious and prestigious reputation. In addition, the equipment and facilities offered, such as air conditioning, swimming pool, electrical appliances (…), or the use of prestigious brands will also increase their value and provide significant added value.

LUXURY IS RARITY, CREATIVITY, ELEGANCE

Ultimately, real estate luxury is based on many variable factors that directly influence a property’s potential. However, it is always true that the value of a luxury property is established first of all in the rarity it offers: “Luxury is rarity, creativity, elegance”. It is therefore up to the client to establish his own definition of prestige, starting from the idea that he has a dream property, which is then inspired by the luxury of thought. As we have already said, there are many factors involved in the correct selection and acquisition of a high-end property. At Select Riviera Maya Real Estate, we have an important portfolio of options that, without a doubt, will be of interest to you due to the attention to detail and all the benefits they offer for those who seek not only to secure their assets but also luxury and comfort.
