Langosta Beachfront House

I have shown some photos of condos on Langosta Beach, so here is a photo of one of the ocean front houses. It is a little hard to see behind the trees.

I assume that these owners want some privacy, judging by the amount of vegetation that they have planted to shield the view of the house from the beach, and judging from the "Private Residence" sign that faces the beach, where I was standing while I took this photo.

I don't blame them. If I had a house on the beach, I would not want people staring from the beach up into the back yard. Houses in Tamarindo are much less expensive per square meter (or foot) than condos because it is so much easier (and less costly) to take care of condos than houses for people who are not there all the time.

This week on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site we are showing photos of three locations on the Riviera Maya: the Mayan ruins of Tulum, the eco-park of Xelha, and a resort on the beach in Cancun.
