Kaybé Gated Community Tulum: Discover Junglar by Grupo Emerita

Table of Contents

Where Nature, Design & Investment Meet

Tulum has become more than a vacation hotspot: it’s a rapidly growing investment frontier.

Investors in 2025 are seeing annual property appreciation rates of 10-15%+ in luxury segments, especially branded residences and high-end homes close to beaches, archaeological sites, and in exclusive gated communities.

Vacation rental yields in prime locations are averaging 8-12%, sometimes higher for luxury villas or high-amenity properties

For foreign buyers (from U.S. and Canada), these dynamics make high-quality developments like Kaybé and the boutique Junglar by Grupo Emerita especially appealing, for both lifestyle and return potential.

What Makes Kaybé the Most Exclusive Gated Community in Tulum

Prime Location & Strategic Access

Kaybé is positioned along the federal highway in Tulum, giving access to both the beach and the iconic archaeological zone without sacrificing tranquility. This is a major factor for premium property valuation in Tulum.

Proximity matters: the higher the desirability and lower the friction (for example transportation, infrastructur) the greater the value appreciation.

Design, Architecture & Integration with Nature

Created by the internationally recognized firm Macías Peredo, Kaybé is built on principles of organic architecture, using local materials, integrating with the Mayan jungle, emphasizing open space, terraces, and visual continuity with nature. These aspects align with what luxury buyers are demanding today.

Proximity matters: the higher the desirability and lower the friction (for example transportation, infrastructur) the greater the value appreciation.

Gated Security, Privacy & Community Planning

Kaybé is not just a set of houses. It is a fully gated, master-planned community.

Along with amenities like clubhouse, multisensory park (designed by Arquitectura Mixta), spa, gyms, etc., it offers both the convenience and exclusivity that premium buyers want.

The Lifestyle inside Kaybé

Kaybé offers more than walls and roofs: it promises a lifestyle.

Imagine waking up to the sounds of jungle, being just steps away from a multisensory park, relaxing by a high-quality clubhouse, enjoying spa or yoga moments, or playing paddel.

Amenities include security, reception, car lobby, event hall, gym, children’s area, pools, spa, sun terraces, etc.

This lifestyle attracts not only vacationers but remote workers, digital nomads, and retirees. People who want privacy, wellness, nature, yet still premium conveniences.

Junglar by Grupo Emerita: A Boutique Development in Kaybé

Junglar is a small exclusive enclave: only 8 townhouses within Kaybé: premium positioning, high privacy, surrounded by jungle, adjacent to Clubhouse, and park.

This boutique scale means low density, more privacy, a high sense of exclusivity. Investors often pay a premium for projects like this because there are fewer units and more demand among buyers seeking privacy.

Villa Altea & Villa Bakari: Two Models, One Exclusive Vision

Here are two standout offerings in Junglar:

Villa Altea:

  • A 3-level townhouse, larger, with terrace, garden, pool, multiple bedrooms (main suite with walk-in closet), etc. Ideal for someone wanting space, privacy, premium features.

Here are two standout offerings in Junglar:

Villa Bakari:

  • A 2-level model that still delivers luxury, with private pool, garden, terrace, and high-quality finishes. More compact but still exclusive.

Both are positioned for strong rental performance (vacation rentals) and for long-term capital appreciation.

Why Invest in Kaybé and Junglar

Here are the compelling investment arguments:

  • High appreciation rates: Luxury properties in Tulum have appreciated ~12% annually over the past 3 years. 

  • Strong rental yields: Tulum averages around 8% rental yield overall; luxury and high amenity properties (villas, well-managed homes) often achieve 10-15%.
  • Tourism growth & infrastructure: New infrastructure (airport, connectivity improvements), sustained tourist demand.
  • Prestige & quality: Developments in top zones (e.g. Aldea Zamá, comparative gated communities) tend to hold value better, attract affluent tenants or vacationers, and have lower vacancy.

For someone buying from Canada or the U.S., the exchange rate, lower cost of some materials, high desirability of tropical wellness living, and potential for both capital gains + rental income make these kinds of projects very efficient parts of a diversified portfolio.
