As Mexico gears up to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup, those with their finger on the pulse of the property market – and with a penchant for sport – may be enticed by the Land of the Sun for their next investment. And with properties as good as Las Vistas, situated on an exclusive enclave on Mexico’s Pacific coast, buying a holiday home here would certainly be a good move. 

One of the country’s most luxurious stretches of coastline on the rapidly developing Riviera Nayarit, Punta Mita first made headlines in 2014 when Microsoft founder Bill Gates acquired not only the region’s Four Seasons resort, but also pumped $200 million into adjacent land to develop this holiday destination. Now a leafy private reserve measuring 1,500 acres, and a four-hour drive from the tequila haven of Jalisco, it’s attracted some of the world’s biggest hotel brands, including the aforementioned Four Seasons, St Regis and Conrad Hilton. 

Those looking for a more permanent base in this moneyed Mexican locale should look no further than Las Vistas Estates, which currently has a gorgeous six-bedroom, seven-bathroom residence on the market. One of 10 custom-built homes, owners and guests at Las Vistas Estates enjoy access to Punta Mita’s five beach clubs, two world-class Jack Nicklaus-designed golf courses, bespoke dining experiences, exclusive events and more.

Located on Careyeros Hill, one of the highest points of Punta Mita the home promises panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, the Marietas Islands, and Mexico’s lush native tropical flora. The design blends classic coastal charm with contemporary sophistication, using natural materials, open spaces, and soft tones to create an inviting atmosphere that feels deeply connected to its surroundings. 

Living spaces flow effortlessly between indoors and outdoors, from the open-plan kitchen and dining area to the expansive terrace with a private infinity pool, shaded pergola, and multiple areas designed for wining and dining or quiet sunset moments. Every room has been designed to maximise views and be flooded with sunlight, encouraging guests to slow down and savour the surrounding natural landscape.

Each of the six bedrooms is equipped with retractable floor-to-ceiling glass windows to offer fresh breezes and sunlight throughout the day. The master suite is a true highlight, opening directly onto a private terrace with endless ocean views, while guest suites feature elegant en-suite bathrooms, custom furnishings, and design elements that reflect the natural environment. Sounds like a Mexican paradise to us.
