Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo — Playa del Carmen has added another beach club to its roster with the opening of Santino Beach Club on calle 28 at the beachfront, one of the destination’s best-known tourist stretches and home to Mamita’s Beach Club and Lola Beach Club.

Santino announced the launch this month with a music celebration by the sea.

In a post on its Facebook account, the venue presented its concept under the slogan “The beach sets the stage. We bring the party,” alongside a musical lineup featuring KPIN, Borges, Gabi Barrientos and Chaz Mendoza.

A spot in a crowded beach corridor

The new club gives visitors another option for music, entertainment and Caribbean views, and places it directly alongside Mamita’s Beach Club, one of Playa del Carmen’s most established venues and for years a benchmark for beachfront tourism and nightlife.

The same corridor is home to Lola Beach Club & Restaurant, which combines Mediterranean-inspired cuisine, cocktails, a pool and spaces for beachgoers.

With Santino in the mix, visitors now have an additional choice in an area where several establishments compete for domestic and international tourists as well as local customers.

More options ahead of high season

The arrival of new venues is a positive signal for commercial and tourism activity in Playa del Carmen, particularly with the winter high season approaching.

It also shows that the beach zone continues to draw interest for entertainment and tourism service concepts, with new dining proposals joining consolidated clubs in an effort to attract visitors through differentiated experiences.

Ahead of the year-end holidays, the wider range of options could support business along the coastal corridor and give travelers who choose Playa del Carmen as their destination more alternatives.

With Santino, Mamita’s and Lola sharing the same stretch of sand, the competition for visitors is expected to intensify during the coming holiday season.
