Estates Update - Jalisco

Our last update was in March, 2020 when we took photos of the construction activity at the Jalisco Estates site. Before that, we posted our photos from a January, 2020 visit. There is a lot going on there. Here is a summary of the current state:
  1. This aerial photo shows the construction activity at the Jalisco Estates construction site.


    Numbering legend as of June 15, 2020: 1 - Pod #1; 2 - Pod #2 under construction; 3 - Central Plaza construction site; 4 - Pod #3 construction site; 5 - Current driving range. construction as of June 15, 2020.

  2. Pod #2 is under construction. Buildings are smaller than Pod #1 buildings and the configuration is different. Access to rooms in Pod #1 appears to be through the center "Hub" elevator, whereas access to rooms in Pod #2 might be similar to Riviera Maya Luxxe buildings with entry to rooms from the interior courtyards.


    Pod #2 construction as of June 15, 2020. Note the difference from Pod #1.

  3. Pod #2 buildings are different from Pod #1 buildings. Pod #2 buildings are narrower, implying Pod #2 will not have 4 Bedroom units in them. Most likely they will be 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedroom units.

  4. Central Plaza construction is progressing. It is still unclear what the space will actually be, although restaurants could be located at the end of one of the extensions, a gym and spa could be at the end of another extension. Will the pool for all guests be located in this central area too? Stay tuned...


    The Central Plaza may serve as the center of activity for Estates owners and guests. Restaurants, shops and pool areas are needed to support Estates guests. Is this where they will be located? Or, will guests be required to be transported to the large buildings along the Boca de Tomates road? Stay tuned....

    Infrastructure buildings along Boca de Tomates Road as of March 13, 2020. What services will be provided here? Water purification, sewage, laundry, food preparation, and employee lockers and staging areas?

  5. Two new Pod construction sites have appeared. The footprint suggests the new complex will be configured like Pod #1, but the actual buildings may be the same size as Pod #2's buildings. Stay tuned...


    Outline of the new construction site suggests another pod similar in building space configuration to Pod #1. However the actual buidings appear to be narrower based on the footprint outline.

    Rebar staging site is now the 4th potential building site. Image was taken March 13, 2020.



    Simulation of the new building using Pod #2 buildings as templates. The Pod #2 buildings under construction fit the dug out area in Pod #3, which suggests the smaller sized buildings could be located in Pod #3 too.
A lot is happening at the site of the Jalisco Estates construction. That said, the plan to have the area ready for guests by November seems ambitious and likely not going to happen. November, 2021.....? Stay tuned...
