Mayakoba Country Club Backs 550 Million Peso Residential Expansion in Riviera Maya

Ernesto Torres, general director of Mayakoba Country Club, presents the company's residential expansion plans for the Riviera Maya.

Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo — Mayakoba Country Club is pushing ahead with a 550 million peso residential expansion in the Riviera Maya, a project slated to run from 2026 through 2029.

The company is building five condominiums simultaneously, covering 85,000 square meters and 380 lots, said Ernesto Torres, general director of Mayakoba Country Club.

“We are very happy that we have finally been able to start those works and we already have a clearer picture and timeline of when we can begin operations,” Torres said.

Condominiums Set for Completion by End of 2026

The developments are scheduled to be finished by the end of 2026 and will generate nearly 900 homes. Market response has been strong, with 60 to 70 percent of the inventory already sold before construction is complete.

The project is part of Ciudad Mayakoba, a master plan covering 409 hectares, of which 161 belong to the Country Club, divided into 15 sub-condominiums.

The offering includes single-family lots ranging from 300 to 500 square meters, priced between 9,000 and 15,000 pesos per square meter, as well as macrolots for developers.

Golf Course and First-Class Infrastructure

After the five condominiums are completed in 2026, investment will shift in 2027 to building the 18-hole golf course designed by Spanish professional Sergio Garcia. The first nine holes are already under construction.

According to the official schedule, the clubhouse will open in early 2028, and the full golf course will be delivered by mid-2029, strengthening the area’s sports and lifestyle offerings.

Domestic Buyers Lead Demand

National buyers account for 80 percent of sales at the development, with purchasers mainly from Mexico City, as well as Monterrey, Guadalajara and Queretaro. The remaining 20 percent comes from investors in the United States and Canada.

Despite a more than 10 percent increase in construction materials and pressure on labor costs, the company reaffirmed its commitment to residential consolidation in the Mexican Caribbean eight years after starting the project.
