We’re BACK in our favorite beach town in Mexico, back on KZfaq after a short break, and ready to take on 2024 with everything we’ve got!
We fell in love with Puerto Escondido quite early in the beginning of our travels, we first visited in March 2021 and made a few videos which quickly became really popular and it is now December 2023 and we are wondering how much has changed? That’s the question we’ll be answering in today’s video.
Depending on how long you’ve been following us you may or may not know that we purchased some property here in Puerto Escondido in 2021, but we’ve said very little about that. So for the first time ever, we’re going to be showing you our property.

Very, very cool because 1) we are currently staying at an RV park in Bahia de San Agustin about 2 hours south of ya'll and the weather is pretty hot but we are loving it. 2) We stayed a few months in Santa Maria del Tule and Oaxaca City and really liked it....we are considering making the state of Oaxaca our home base after we wrap up a few years of 100% RV travel. We've been to 13 or 14 Mexican states now...many of which we've had extended stays in. So it's cool to hear that out of all the places you've been in Mexico you chose Puerto Escondido! I do worry though about what changes lie in store after the new autopista opens that cuts travel time to Oaxaca City drastically...

So lovely to see your faces pop up on my KZfaq timeline. It sounds like you bought property at the perfect time!! I know many people see new development and think automatically it’s Americans changing things, but for those of us that travel domestically - Mexico is a large country and there are definitely people there that work hard and want fancy places to stay and dine themselves! I live on the border and certainly there are Americans that travel down to Baja for the wineries and resorts, but in reality it’s still majority Mexicans from the area or from the big cities in the country. I don’t think that PE’s airport has many if any international flights. I’m sure you’ll be a great voice once you’re locals. Also, don’t hesitate to post shorter videos of things to do in CDMX! It might not be travel to you, but Mexico City’s a hot travel destinations and would love to see your faves that you’ve discovered while there!

@EatBailaTravel 6 ай бұрын

Hola amigo! Likewise, it's great to see a comment from you :) I'm so glad you mentioned that about Mexicans also being a significant part of change and development. They really are! PE's airport is gradually adding more and more flights. I believe they now have a direct flight coming in from Canada (or will soon if not already). CDMX "travel" videos to come for sure! Saludos!

Bienviendos! A lot has changed in Puerto in the last few years, especially in La Punta, which is a supposed to be a "zona ecologico". Almost every lot is being cleared and built on now. More and more units, housing, are coming on line but the demand has remained the same at best. You could see it this holiday season. There were a lot of people in town but most places were not at full occupancy. The infrastructure here was never intended to support all this growth. The water & agua negra problems have only gotten worse. As well as the amount of garbage and plastic waste you see strewn all over the town. Where this is all going and how this will all end? idk The next 2-3 years will be telling for the community. All that being said. Puerto is still an amazing place...for now!

Hi neighbour! I should have bought 2 lots also, but just the one. Good mention of prices and the environment. Gas was $2.00 per litre when I was there in Dec, and 12 moths prior it was $1.35. It's becoming shockingly expensive in my perspective. Developers are drooling at the prosect of building resorts, which would take away the character of the town. My property is 200M. There should be limits to size and height in place. Thanks for your work and we'll see you sometime.

$60 pesos for a quesadilla 😮 that’s crazy!!! I just got back from spending 8 days in Mexico City on vacation. 2nd time and loved it even more. Looking to take my 5 kids to Mexico for a summer vacation and are trying to decide between Oaxaca and Merida. We’ve already done a Chiapas trip with them, Mexico City trip, Morelia, Durango, and Cancun down to Bacalar trip. Between Oaxaca/puerto or Merida what one do you think would be more affordable.

@EatBailaTravel 5 ай бұрын

To be fair, it was a quite large quesadilla lol. In our experience, Oaxaca would be more affordable than Merida. Prices are more inflated in Merida because of its proximity to Cancun whereas Oaxaca is still comparatively more affordable. Both are beautiful places and I’m sure you’ll love them both.

Ahh, how bout a video on how the finance for a property works there?

@EatBailaTravel 7 ай бұрын

That would be hard to do. We paid in cash so we don't have experience with financing a property. We wouldn't qualify anyway because we have no credit history in Mexico and they don't accept foreign credit scores or anything like that.

Welcome back! Glad to see you guys had time to relax and enjoy the holidays. Quick question what factors were you guys looking when choosing that location of land? I’m trying to decide where to build in PXM. Would love to see the process of building in PXM! Saludos desde MKE Jesus C.

@EatBailaTravel 7 ай бұрын

We weren't too picky on the location to be honest but being so close to the beach and close to an area that is growing made us feel confident that we were making a smart purchase. We'd also been looking the in the Bacocho and Rinconada area which we like better for a residence, but for a potential business, something near La Punta would be better.

@jesusc.2861 7 ай бұрын

@@EatBailaTravel La Puta has changed a lot since I lived there in 04’ back in the day that was “The Rave” Party side till 6am. Ideally Rinconada y Bacocho is where we would like to live but the land is really high. If we decide in that area we would have to consider to purchase a house and not build. I’m glad you guys love PXM, it’s been my second home besides Milwaukee/ DF / La Chona. Maybe one day we will rum into you guys, since we go there once a year to PXM & DF, I still have familia in both places. Keep up the great videos and be safe! Saludos

@EatBailaTravel 6 ай бұрын

the land we bought? We paid $3,500 mxn pesos per square meter at a time when the peso was around $19mxn to $1 usd. We paid close to $90,000 USD for the two lots. The biggest investment of our lives. We've been told that our lots our worth double now, which is crazy because at the time we felt we were already paying too much.

What’s the sidewalk situation? Do worry with all the construction that they’re some ankle breaking dips and holes to consider especially when having a camera talking. Have a dentist friend who does charity trips down there.

@EatBailaTravel 7 ай бұрын

There are some concrete sidewalks but a lot of PE is gravel streets and sand. I'm pretty accident-prone so I do have to watch my step often. I don't mind it. It forces me to practice more mindfulness. I've rolled my ankle of concrete sidewalk more than gravel or any other kind of uneven surface.

Are you of Mexican heritage? If so, first step is get your mexican citizenship and be a dual citizen 🇺🇸🇲🇽😎 the other thing is to look for jobs with American companies operating in Mexico (though they'll likely pay in pesos) or look for US remote jobs in call centers, customer service, IT which tend to be remote

Hi there, thanks! We paid $3,500 pesos per square meter at a time when the exchange rate was around 19 pesos to the dollar. We've heard that lots near us are now going for $7,500-$8,000 pesos per square meter. We purchased directly from the seller, so unfortunately we don't have a specific recommendation.

@EatBailaTravel 6 ай бұрын

Hi! We cashed out our retirement funds (401k) and paid for the property in cash. Not sure I would advise anyone to do that but we took the risk. We don’t qualify for any financing options in Mexico because we don’t have any financial work history here

For sure. We came to it via word-of-mouth from a family friend local to PE. The seller was married to someone in their family and they introduced us. Before we met them though we’d been walking around town taking down phone numbers from posters and real estate businesses.

Should have been here 30 years ago, even 10…. Tourist always get overcharged….even more so from Dec-April, example we rent a nice furnished 2 bedroom house in bococho, with cable, wifi, washing machine 2 blocks to the beach …yearly lease …7500 pesos a month ..I just ate a huge dinner up in town yesterday with drink, 85 pesos. Only in tourist places and tourist time you pay tourist prices.. Prices now are dropping as the rest of the world opened up, Puerto had a weird overinflated prices during Covid, now that many countries are having economic problems and the peso is higher watch for dropping prices and as a result of lots of newer rentals. Lots of for rent signs still up in our neighbourhood..even after the busiest 2:weeks.

Then the green taxi drivers are taking people hostage and putting then in prison for not paying ridiculous fares and charging them huge amounts of money to get out. The day the highway opened puerto died.
