What We Do for Hotels

MEP & Energy

Chillers, VRF, hot water, BMS, solar and efficiency retrofits.

Safety & Resilience

Fire and life safety, accessibility, facades and hurricane hardening.

New Hotels & Expansions

Hotels of every class, new wings, villas and amenities.

Permits and rules in Mahahual

Within Othón P. Blanco municipality, coastal sites need federal-zone concessions and environmental approval; reef and mangrove protections are strict. We map these approvals at the start of every hotel project, so design, procurement and works move in parallel.

When to build in Mahahual

Cruise days set the rhythm; hotels are small and often close for a few weeks in autumn, the best time for construction. We build the phasing plan around that calendar, so revenue keeps coming in while the works advance.

Water, power and staff in Mahahual

Power from the grid is limited and unstable, water often comes from wells or desalination, and wastewater must be treated on site.
