Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Everyone should start the day with a walk along the beach instead of being stuck in morning traffic. One local estate agent finds the experience more than rewarding while living in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

"I feel like I'm living in paradise," says Taniel Chemsian, estate agent with Timothy Real Estate Group. "This is exactly where I wanted to be. I wanted to enjoy where I was living. I wanted to just enjoy life."

Taniel has been living in Puerto Vallarta since 2003, and it's much more than location and fantastic weather.

"I've made some wonderful, wonderful friends throughout the years and I can't really see myself living anywhere else, this is my town, this is my home," Taniel further explains.

His family was surprised when he left L.A. after 23 years, starting on the next chapter of his life.

"I've always been one to go with my feelings. If something inspires me to do something or go somewhere or try a new experience, I'll do it, and it just seemed natural when I came here for the first time. Vallarta just blew me away, just the energy of the town was quite amazing, so it just felt natural," says Taniel.

There's a wide variety of properties in the Bay of Banderas region, and it's just a matter of time before you find the perfect place to call home.

"The Rio Amapas development is really unique in a sense that it is the only development that is built in a jungle setting with views of the ocean," says Taniel. "It is probably one of the most extensive tropical landscaped areas in the entire bay area."

"Rio Amapas is all about indoor/outdoor living," says Taniel. "You've got the sliding glass doors that open up all the way incorporating the terrace with the interior living space, so you can enjoy the crisp breeze coming off of the ocean. You've also got the stunning mountain back drops, and all the landscaping that's unique to this development that runs right along the Amapas river."

"The architect built Rio Amapas in a very unique concept," says Taniel, "He's incorporating steel and concrete with soft wood in this tropical setting, where you've got walkways and paths all throughout the grounds."

Let Taniel be your guide while searching for your ideal tropical retreat.
