Puerto Mexía: Discover the Estate
A private coastline on the Sea of Cortez. Off the grid. Out of sight. Thirty-five minutes from La Paz, and a world away from everyone.
The Estate
For those who have nothing to prove and everything to protect.
Puerto Mexía is a private coastal estate carved into the cliffs above the Sea of Cortez. No neighbors in view. No light on the horizon but the stars. No sound but wind, water and the breath of whales passing below the terrace.
It was never meant to be seen. It was meant to be found, by a very small number of people who would rather snorkel with mantas than be photographed at a beach club, and who understand that true privacy is the rarest luxury left.

The flagship residence
Casa Mantarraya
The first home at Puerto Mexía, and the clearest expression of what is possible here: a cliffside residence with a front-row seat to migrating whales, leaping mantas and dolphins. Three bedroom suites and a convertible fourth room, a 12-meter pool in volcanic stone, and a complete solar system that keeps the house entirely independent.

Arrival
Arrive by road, by sea, or by air.
- I
By road
Thirty-five minutes from La Paz and its international airport: close enough for dinner in town, far enough that it might as well be the edge of the world. The estate is intentionally discreet, so a driver meets every arrival.
- II
By sea
The boat collects guests from the coastline below the estate and crosses the bay to La Paz, weather permitting: lunch on the waterfront, then home by sea.
- III
By air
A private heliport on the estate, served by the family's eight-seat MD 902 Explorer helicopter and its resident pilot.
Life at Puerto Mexía

A heliport
A private landing pad within the estate, home to the family's MD 902 Explorer, a US$7.2 million helicopter.

Off-grid by design
Solar power and water independence, and nothing between you and the stars.
The Setting
Puerto Mexía
A private oceanfront enclave on the Sea of Cortez, where the Baja desert runs straight into clear turquoise water. Casa Mantarraya holds its prime position: the point of the cliff, directly over the bay.
Whales
Migrating whales pass in the winter months, visible from the terraces.
Mantas
Schools of mobula rays leap out of the bay: the house's namesake.
Dolphins
Pods of dolphins are a regular sight along the coast.

The Land
Twenty-five lots. Room for just a few.
The registered survey divides the estate's 13.7 hectares into 25 lots, with green areas, donation areas, access roads and natural arroyos. Only five to eight villas are envisioned across the entire coastline, preserving the silence, the views and the wilderness that make Puerto Mexía what it is.
Lot areas
Architecture
Built to belong to the cliff.
White plaster, soft parapets and shaded roof terraces: the language of Casa Mantarraya, set low into the land so the sea stays the focus. Studies from the estate's design work.
Homesites
