House Construction in Soliman Bay
Turnkey new builds in Soliman Bay: design, permits, foundation, structure and finishes under one contract, one site manager and one fixed price.
Recrea has been building houses in Soliman Bay, Tankah and the coast north of Tulum since 2008 — 196+ completed projects across the Riviera Maya. Our architecture, electrical, carpentry and ironwork crews are in-house, so your build does not depend on subcontractors who appear and vanish.

Permits and Building Rules in Soliman Bay
Tulum is the strictest municipality on the coast. On top of land use and the municipal licence with a DRO, most projects need environmental authorisation from SEMA (and an MIA where there is land clearing or proximity to cenotes or mangrove). The PDU caps density and height by zone and requires a minimum permeable green area. Budget 3 to 5 months for permits.
The lot: what decides your foundation
Fractured limestone with frequent cenotes and caverns, especially in Región 15 and La Veleta. A geophysical survey is not optional here: finding a cavern under the footprint after the foundation has started costs weeks of delay and hundreds of thousands of pesos.
Soliman Bay is the beachfront villa enclave between Akumal and Tulum: low density, large lots, a protected reef and almost no public infrastructure, so many projects are solved with a well, cistern, treatment plant and solar. Tulum municipality, with SEMA on most lots and ZOFEMAT on the beachfront; construction logistics run longer and that shows in the cost per m².
