What you need to know about La Perla

La Perla is a boutique private community of 19 premium residential lots — 8 lakefront and 11 garden — within Country Lakes, the most exclusive master plan community in Yucatan. All owners enjoy access to La Perla's private lake club, plus the full Country Lakes amenities.

The property is acquired through a bank trust (fideicomiso) with INVEX, one of Mexico's most recognized trust institutions. The subdivision is registered and the transaction is formalized through a notarial deed, providing full legal certainty to the buyer — including foreign nationals.

Country Lakes is a 1,100+ hectare master plan that includes 80+ hectares of navigable lakes, an 18-hole par 72 golf course, three private clubs (Golf Club, Lake Club, and Sports Club), a Town Center with shops and restaurants, 450+ hectares of protected green areas, and 24/7 controlled access.

La Perla has only 19 residential lots: 8 lakefront lots (Lake) ranging from 450.71 to 493.16 m², and 11 garden-view lots (Garden) from 311.82 to 338.08 m². Availability is limited and currently in pre-sale phase.

Country Lakes is located north of Merida, Yucatan, approximately 45 minutes from the international airport, 2 minutes from the Town Center, and near the beaches of Sisal, Chuburna, and Progreso on the northern coast. Direct flights connect from Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Houston, Dallas, and other cities.

La Perla is developed by Chukum Inmobiliaria, with over 50 years of experience in premium residential developments in Mexico City, including areas like San Jeronimo and Pedregal. The Country Lakes master plan is developed by BOMA Desarrollos, with master design by EDSA and architecture by Artigas.
