Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo — Developers of the Ciudad Mayakoba megaproject have submitted an environmental impact statement (MIA) to Mexico’s General Directorate of Environmental Impact and Risk (DGIRA) for a new residential and commercial complex spanning more than 10 hectares.
The project, filed by Oleum Joint Venture, S. de R.L. de C.V., calls for the construction of 24 ten-story towers and one three-story tower, along with amenities. According to the notice published in the official ecological gazette of the Environment and Natural Resources Secretariat (Semarnat), the development has a planned lifespan of 99 years, with 15 years allocated for site preparation and construction.
The complex will include 920 housing units and commercial lots, as well as roads, parking lots, walkways, guard booths, warehouses, and green areas. It will be built in two phases: Phase A will consist of a commercial and residential area on top of macrolots 13 and 32, while Phase B will involve the construction of residential buildings with common areas on both lots.
The total land area is 10.64 hectares, divided into Lot 13 (5.51 hectares) and Lot 32 (5.13 hectares). For each lot, 75% of the surface will be developed, while 25% will remain as natural conservation areas.
Access to the complex will be via Federal Highway 307 Chetumal-Puerto Juárez at kilometer 298, through the main entrance of Ciudad Mayakoba.
The project description states that it aims to develop a sustainable residential-commercial complex that aligns with regional development policies, generating employment, boosting economic activity, attracting foreign currency, and improving socioeconomic conditions in the area.
