The Costalegre is Emerging: A Highway & Airport to New Luxury Resorts

The Four Seasons | Tamarindo & Xala | and the exciting near future of Costalegre

Costalegre, a stunning coastline in Jalisco, Mexico, is emerging as a sought-after luxury destination with high-end resorts and an upcoming airport.

The Four Seasons, Tamarindo, Costalegre, Jalisco resort offers a unique golf experience and an exclusive escape with a focus on sustainability and responsible tourism, while the highly anticipated Xala promises a transformative experience combining luxury and mindfulness.

The soon-to-be airport will significantly enhance accessibility to the region, attracting both tourists and investors. As Costalegre continues to develop and garner attention from luxury travelers and high-profile brands, this tropical paradise is set to redefine luxury travel and investment opportunities in Mexico and beyond.

Costalegre’s New Airport Set to Boost Jet Set Destination

The charming and picturesque Pacific coast of Mexico has recently gained a lot of attention, especially the awe-inspiring Costalegre – an expansive area of pristine beaches, captivating capes and tranquil bays that stretch between Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta. While it has long been a favorite of the jet-set elite, the region is now set to become more accessible, albeit in an exclusive way.

A new airport is currently under development, set to provide visitors with much easier access to the region. Currently, commercial flights require arrival at either Puerto Vallarta or Manzanillo, both of which can prove inconvenient. According to Wayne Hudson, spokesperson for the splendid Cuixmala resort – formerly the home of British tycoon Sir James Goldsmith – the new airport is expected to be operational within two years, with work already underway on the runway and accompanying buildings, as well as the road network leading to and from the airport.

This exciting development is expected to have a significant impact on tourism in the state of Jalisco, particularly in the Costalegre region. The area boasts a breathtaking series of 43 virgin beaches, captivating capes and serene bays, all nestled along the Pacific coast between the major tourist hubs of Puerto Vallarta in Jalisco and Manzanillo in Colima. With new infrastructure in the pipeline, the future of tourism in this stunning region looks set to flourish.

With much anticipation, the long-awaited extension and modernization of the federal highway 200 is soon to be completed after two years of hard work. This crucial transportation link runs from Puerto Vallarta to Barra de Navidad and is a significant step in developing the Costalegre region.

Another exciting infrastructure project in the area is the Chalacatepec airport, which is expected to see its first airplane within a year and a half. Although the runway has been ready for the past four years, expropriation agreements with local community landowners still need to be finalized before the airport proper can be constructed. The state government is set to pay a sum of 15 million pesos (US $858,000) to acquire the necessary land. Additionally, an extra 17 million pesos will go toward building a road that will allow local residents access to the main highway without crossing the runway. Once completed, the airport will be a 90-million-peso facility capable of accommodating 170-passenger aircraft, serving both commercial and private flights.

This exciting project is just one of the many items included in a comprehensive US $400-million investment package announced last year to develop the Costalegre. Local authorities and state officials have spoken about the region’s breathtaking beaches, describing them as “a diamond in the rough” and “destined to become the most beautiful beach on the Pacific coast.” They have also heralded the Costalegre as the future of beach destinations not only in Jalisco, but in all of Mexico. This investment package will help bring the area’s true potential to fruition and establish it as a must-visit destination for years to come.

Giving credence to such claims are international hotel brands such as One and Only and Four Seasons, among others, that are currently developing 18 projects with a combination of domestic and foreign investment.

A breathtaking sanctuary for the socially conscious, that sparks imagination and inner peace, while being immersed in nature.

The development in Xala, Mexico has been announced that combines luxury living with a socially conscious focus on sustainability and community. Nestled on over 1,000 hectares of land on the west coast of Mexico, this breathtaking sanctuary is set to open its doors in 2023 after the completion of its first phase, costing $125 million. The project is designed to inspire imagination and inner peace, while being immersed in nature.

This community-oriented destination focuses on agriculture, farming and sustainability, and will provide locals with access to nearly five miles of beaches, as well as two estuaries. Xala aims to restore and protect the local environment, with nearly 250 hectares of land being reforested and 500 hectares preserved as a protected area. Additionally, programs will be created to protect the region’s reptiles, turtles, ocelots, and other endangered species.

Renowned actor Richard Gere and The Heart Supply founder Johnny Schillereff are partners in this venture, along with developers Ricardo Santa Cruz and Jeronimo and Juan Bremer. Gere expresses his excitement to be a part of the Xala project and its shared vision of delivering exceptional levels of tourism and a truly sustainable neighborhood to this incredibly special part of the world.

The project is located about two hours from Puerto Vallarta and only five minutes away from the future site of the Costalegre Airport, providing easy accessibility to visitors from around the world. Xala is a unique development that offers a luxurious experience that also prioritizes sustainability and community.

Cuixmala

Sir James Goldsmith Wildlife Sanctuary

Created by Sir James Goldsmith, knighted for his services to ecology, the once private estate is now open as a destination for discerning travelers. Cuixmala is located on Mexico’s breathtaking Pacific Coast, in the state of Jalisco. Río Cuixmala courses along its southern border, from its northern boundary, vast hills look out over the coconut plantation towards the Pacific Ocean, and to the east, bamboo groves and mango trees number in their thousands.

“Nothing is more exciting than seeing a house that looks like a fantasy movie. This is the feeling when seeing Casa Cuixmala but the environment is even more idyllic than the construction.“
