Great day!

Well we met with Joe Mendez and the builder Pablo along with Domingo, architecto from the Municipality here.  We cannot renovate this property too many foundation issues.  We had a discussion with Joe who owns Pearl Realty.  We are going to go forward with a new build! Very exciting...

We are going to build a two story structure with rooftop palapa.  Obviously many many details to come, permits, planning, taxes and demolishing of the existing structure.   Sketchy details at the moment but basically we will have kitchen/living/dining on the first floor with outside terrace and small infinity pool.

Second floor will be all master bedroom with large balcony and bathroom.  This all subject to change, in the coming months we will be going over plans and fine tuning details of house fixtures and fittings.

This is a huge undertaking for us and a giant leap of faith but we are ready...I think :-)


Yesterday went to Rooster Cafe for breakfast...so good...had the steak benedicto...absolutely wonderful!

Only a few days left here on Isla then we head off to Merida for three weeks and Chelem for two weeks on the beach, Gulf of Mexico....we come back to Isla on April 3 where we hope to close on the house and begin tearing down the current structure....stay tuned...loads more to come!
