Ocean · Laguna · River · Where Three Waters Meet
Discover the LotsThose searching for Puerto Escondido real estate at the frontier of Mexico's Pacific coast have found it. Tres Aguas sits just 15 minutes from the Puerto Escondido airport and 18 minutes from Centro Puerto Escondido on a pristine stretch of the Oaxacan Emerald Coast where the Pacific meets a natural laguna and the Río Chila traces the western boundary of the land. The beach here is called Playa Palmarito: undiscovered, unspoiled, and entirely your own. The development sits in a rare sweet spot: far enough for natural seclusion, close enough for every amenity.
Dramatic mountain ranges frame the horizon. The Pacific delivers its emerald surf. The laguna reflects the open sky. This is a place where nature has already done the extraordinary work, and where the opportunity to own a piece of it remains open. Learn how foreigners buy beachfront land in Mexico.

Direct international flights into the newly expanded Puerto Escondido Airport, backed by a $2 billion government investment, plus the brand-new Oaxaca City highway, make reaching Tres Aguas seamless from virtually anywhere on the globe. A new passenger terminal is predicted to open in late 2026 or early 2027, nearly doubling capacity, with airlines already signaling further routes to follow, the clearest sign yet that this is still the early window for the coast.
Tres Aguas takes its name from the three waters that define it: the open Pacific, the pristine river that forms its border, and the natural laguna that lies within. Together they create a landscape unlike anything else available in Puerto Escondido real estate today.
The Pacific
Wake to the sound of Pacific surf. The emerald waters of the Oaxacan coast are yours: undeveloped, uncrowded, and extraordinary.
The Laguna
A natural laguna runs through the development. Calm, reflective, alive with birdlife and tropical flora.
The River
The river defines the western edge: a thriving ecosystem of mangroves, agave, and lush jungle canopy.
The Mountains
The Sierra Sur rises behind the coast, framing every sunrise in layers of deep blue and lush green.
Daily Ritual
The Pacific coast faces west. Every evening, Tres Aguas is bathed in gold, coral, and amber light.

Two choices, one number. Pick how close to the Pacific you want to be and the size of home you would build, and we will show an indicative all-in estimate. Tres Aguas sells the land only. You can build with the architect and builder of your choice, following the Tres Aguas architectural guidelines, and if you do not have one yet, we can introduce you to trusted local builders.
Illustrative estimates only; not an offer or quote. Lot prices reflect published Tres Aguas pricing per m² and current availability, and may change without notice. Villa costs are derived from completed construction contracts elsewhere on this coast, cross-checked against current local builder guidance. They are not Tres Aguas pricing or a builder quote, and vary with design, finishes, permitting and site conditions. The Large range is the least certain and should be treated as indicative only.

You wake before the heat, coffee in hand, walking barefoot to the water's edge as the Pacific catches its first light. The kids are already running ahead on the sand. By 7am you've covered a stretch of nearly empty Oaxacan coastline, the Sierra Madre rising behind you, the laguna glittering to your left. This is your morning. Every morning.
Your home faces the ocean. The terrace is where work gets done, meals are shared, and evenings dissolve into colour. Puerto Escondido Centro is 18 minutes away: ceviche, mezcal, chefs who came from Mexico City and never left. Everything you need, and then back to your own quiet corner of the coast by sunset.

Land of this calibre, oceanfront, laguna-backed, river-bordered, does not stay available. The infrastructure is being built. The prices reflect today. The window is now.
