Condo Renovation in the Chac Mool–Marlin stretch of the Hotel Zone: apartments in beach and lagoon towers
Between Chac Mool and Marlin condos face the open Caribbean; renovations here focus on glazing, terrace waterproofing and marine-grade fittings as well as interiors. We renovate apartments in the beach and lagoon towers along Kukulcán Boulevard: from new floors and paint to complete interiors with kitchen, bathrooms, carpentry, A/C and lighting, coordinated with the building administration.
What we do
Cosmetic refresh
Paint, floors, lighting and fixtures in days, not months.
Kitchen remodel
Custom cabinetry, quartz or stone tops and built-in appliances.
Bathroom remodel
Waterproofed walk-in showers, large-format tile and new plumbing to the riser.
Floors and carpentry
Porcelain, wood-look and stone floors, doors, closets and wall panels.
A/C and electrical
Inverter A/C, new circuits, lighting scenes and smart controls.
Windows and balconies
Sealing, impact glass and balcony finishes approved by the building.
Condo Renovation in the Chac Mool–Marlin stretch of the Hotel Zone
Between Chac Mool and Marlin condos face the open Caribbean; renovations here focus on glazing, terrace waterproofing and marine-grade fittings as well as interiors.
Beachfront condo towers of different generations with large units and penthouses; owners range from residents to investors in monthly and vacation rental, and many units are due for a full interior or a penthouse upgrade.
The setting: Open Caribbean beach and La Isla lagoon front
Open-sea exposure means stronger wind, salt and hurricane loads than on the bay: impact glazing, sealed frames, marine-grade metal and wind-rated terrace designs are standard in our specifications.
Towers, administrations and work hours
Every tower has its own regulations: approval of the work plan, set hours for noisy work, booking of the service lift, protection of common areas, deposits and insurance certificates. We prepare that package before starting, so the administration has no reason to stop the job.
Older towers, salt and two waterfronts
Many Hotel Zone towers are 30 to 40 years old and face the sea on one side and the lagoon on the other. We check risers, the electrical feed and balcony concrete before closing walls, and use stainless, marine-grade hardware and sealed frames that do not rust or stain.
Rules in this sector
Beachfront towers require administration approval, insurance and deposits; roof and terrace works also need structural review and, for plunge pools, the building's sign-off. Works inside towers need the administration's written approval, registered and insured crews, booked service-lift slots and protection of corridors and lifts.
Managed for owners who live abroad
You get one English-speaking project manager and one WhatsApp group, a weekly photo and video report, a live budget and payments by milestone after each stage is checked; most owners only fly in for handover.
