Hotel Classes We Build

Hostels & Economy

Efficient layouts, durable finishes and low running costs for budget travellers and long-stay workers.

City & Business (3★)

Compact rooms, meeting space and fast delivery near airports, avenues and the Tren Maya.

Eco-Lodges

Low-impact cabins and treehouse hotels with off-grid water, power and wastewater.

Hotels for travellers and business

Efficient 2–3 star hotels with parking and simple restaurants serve truckers, officials, contractors and Tren Maya passengers. Cost control and durability decide these projects.

Eco-tourism around the town

Lagoons, jungle and Maya communities support small eco-lodges, often built with local materials and community partners.

Lower land and building costs

Inland location means less salt and lower land prices, so the same hotel costs less here than on the coast; wind design still follows hurricane rules.
