2009-07-02 17:37:23 - The success of a $170 million Spanish real estate project in Mexico demonstrates the fast recovery of the tourism sector and the continuing confidence of foreign investors in the country, said RE/MAX Investment Properties.

A Mexico real estate investment worth around $170 million was marked a success yesterday, said RE/MAX Investment Properties, real estate agents in the Riviera Maya, as the President of Mexico, Felipe Calderón, and the Governor of Quintana Roo, Félix González, officially opened the new Banyan Tree Mayakoba resort.

The project, financed by Spanish developers OHL, demonstrates the fast recovery of the tourism sector in Mexico and the continuing confidence of foreign investors in the country, said RE/MAX Investment Properties.

Mayakoba, meaning “village of water" in Maya, has a network of freshwater canals navigated by electric water taxis, from the docks of private villas. An extraordinarily diverse, carefully preserved ecological environment, from mangrove jungles to the Caribbean Sea.

Calderón and Gonzalez inaugurated the resort by symbolically pouring water into one of the canals.

González emphasized the actions that the 3 levels of government have taken to "reactivate" tourism since the flu scare. He said they were proof of democratic ability and international cooperation.

One of the largest construction groups in Spain, OHL has more that 90 years' of experience and operations in 24 countries.

OHL say the Mexican Mayakoba project, which will include 5 luxury hotels, is their "most ambitious hospitality project to date".
