The thesis

Five years of clean cash flow, a remodel that already happened, and a fourth floor waiting to be built.

Operating today, no fix needed

Last full remodel completed 2016. Pool, waterfall, terrace, 30 rooms all renovated. 14-person staff in place. Micros Fidelio system. Tax-compliant entity. Step in and run it Monday.

Below-replacement basis

$2.8M ÷ 30 keys = $93,333 per key. New construction in Playa del Carmen runs $400–500K per key. You are buying ~80% below replacement on a renovated, cash-flowing asset.

Fourth-floor expansion runway

Building structure pre-plumbed for a fourth-floor solarium with rooftop restaurant + spa. Hot/cold water and drainage roughed in. Add an ADR-defensible amenity on top of a working asset.
