Do you often dream of quitting your day job or retiring early and moving to a beach town? A report from the editors of International Living reveals 3 secret affordable beach getaways that will help make that daydream a reality
... [+]Do you often dream of quitting your day job or retiring early and moving to a beach town that's so cheap you can live for next to nothing in a tropical paradise? A new report from the editors of International Living reveals that will help make that daydream a reality. The location: Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, where you'll find off-the-radar coastal communities that are so cheap you might not need to work.
“Most vacationers who know of Mexico’s Yucatán beaches immediately think of Cancún, Playa del Carmen or Tulum. They’re gorgeous stretches of coast, to be sure. But there are quieter, less-touristed spots that provide the same eye-popping views, but with fewer crowds and less expense,” says Suzan Haskins, a senior editor at International Living.
Haskins hails from the Midwest, where she spent nearly 25 years working in corporate advertising and marketing. Finally, in 2000, she said"not another winter in Omaha" and began looking for a place to live where the climate was better, life moved at a slower pace and she could do more of the things she had always wanted to do. After trying out Ecuador, Haskins and her husband moved to Mexico in late 2002.
Here, we caught up with Haskins to get her take on three cheap, out-of-the-way beach retreats in Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula that provide the opportunity for a quieter, easier and much more affordable life.An aerial view of Holbox Island, where the streets are made of sand and the living is easy. “Holbox Island—where the Caribbean Sea meets the Gulf of Mexico—is one of our favorite getaway spots,” says Haskins. Tiny Holbox is set at the northern tip of the Yucatán Peninsula.
The small beachside village of Mahahual is about four hours south of Cancún on Mexico’s gorgeous Caribbean Coast. Unlike the heavily touristed beaches of the Riviera Maya farther north, the Costa Maya is unpopulated and set against a backdrop of lowland jungle for some 62 miles. Located at the literal end of the road, Mahahual is one of only two towns to access this spectacular environment.
