2-4 Bedroom View Villas in Guard Gated Development
We're pleased to announce a new listing of 18 ocean-view luxury villas in Rancho Paraiso Heights. Overlooking Cabo San Lucas and the Sea of Cortez, views here are never-ending. Views of Pacific sunsets, Land's End, the city lights of Cabo and Sea of Cortez against a backdrop of the rugged Sierra de la Laguna mountain range come together to set a truly magnificent scene. It simply doesn't get any better than this low-density, guard gated development.

At El Cielito, distinct Mexican character blends with modern conveniences. Open floor plans take advantage of panoramic views melding indoors with out. Charming private courtyard entrances and spacious terraces are finished in a variety of natural stone. Inside, the use of intriguing materials continues with Egyptian fossil marble flooring and granite countertops complimented by sustainably forested Mahogany cabinetry and solid Cedar doors.

Designed By a Renowned Los Cabos Architect
Villas range in size from 2,215 - 6,372 square feet in 2, 3 and 4 bedroom layouts with several unique floor plans. Some units have their own pool while others have private gardens. Each comes with a large private enclosed 2-car garage with plenty of space for storage.

Common areas boast a freeform infinity pool with spa, fire pit seating, landscaped gardens and extensive stonework featuring river rock and Oaxaca quarry stone. Attention to detail can be found everywhere you look.

Architectural quality is of the highest caliber, as are the aesthetics. Renowned Mexican architect, Prospero Tapia – known for his beachfront homes and estates in Los Cabos' most privileged developments – crafted the design. Tapia's Los Cabos designs have been featured in countless architectural magazines and many of his projects grace the pages of "Houses by the Sea" – a compilation of some of Baja's most impressive oceanfront residences. A Tapia project commands value and his 30+ years designing homes in Los Cabos speaks to his reputation as one of the best.

Incredible Location
The Rancho Paraiso development is just a few minutes drive from downtown Cabo San Lucas. Situated on the slopes that ascend to the Sierra Laguna Mountains, the terrain features a diversity of desert plants and flowers – with large areas reserved to remain pristine coastal desert habitat. Close enough to the hustle and bustle of Cabo proper yet far from the crowd, El Cielito is peaceful and serene.

Remarkable Value
Remarkable value is also found at El Cielito. Comparable quality can be found at only a few properties here in Los Cabos. Hacienda Beach Club on Medano Beach is very similar in build quality but prices are high at $400+ per square foot of living space. Hacienda also comes with HOA fees that are up to 10x that of El Cielito. Hacienda's beachfront location merits additional value but we feel El Cielito reflects a better value – and it comes with views that Hacienda simply cannot touch. And, with only 22 total villas within a low density development privacy is not an issue.

Timing is what created the opportunity to offer such remarkable value. 2008 was meant to be the launch of sales at El Cielito. The developer was caught in a downturn, financial markets reeling. Try as they might, they could not continue with sales and the bank took over the property. The unsold units were maintained, sold units occupied or rented. Now, a new owner has stepped up to revive sales and see the project through. What that translates to is a single investor looking to make great deals in order to recoup capital – and a great time to purchase.

In 2008, prices ranged from $530,000 to $1.5 Million USD. Today, as of May 2014, those same prices range from $399,000 to $1.15 Million - reductions at or near 25% off the original offering. Compare $400 a square foot for Hacienda Beach Club villas with $210 to $240 per square foot at El Cielito and we think you'll agree that value takes center stage. And, those cost-per-foot figures represent air-conditioned interior space only. Per foot prices drop as low as $175 when outside living space is added to the equation. Again, El Cielito is a remarkable value in a remarkable location.

If you're in the market for a villa with a view… an ENVIABLE view… let us show you El Cielito. If high-end quality is what you want… let us show you El Cielito. If you desire great value and investment potential… let us show you El Cielito. Only 18 units are available.
