The challenge

Building for an international hotel brand means working against a manual the brand audits before authorizing the opening: room specifications, approved finishes, acoustics, lighting, MEP and service areas. Here the bar was even higher: this was the debut of the Moxy brand across Latin America and the Caribbean.

Tulum adds its own context: material logistics to destination, availability of specialized labor and weather conditions that affect the construction program. Every procurement decision becomes a schedule decision.

What we did

Also in hospitality

Beyond Moxy Tulum we delivered La Venata, developed the architectural design of Marriott Chihuahua, and designed and built Sentura Tlalnepantla, which includes 240 hotel rooms alongside a shopping center and 20,000 m² of offices.

Why it matters

For a hotel group or developer, the risk of building in destination is twofold: the brand can reject the handover, and a delay hits the season directly. Working with a contractor that can deploy outside the city and has prior experience with brand audits reduces both exposures.

In the press

The Moxy Tulum opening was covered by international hospitality media as the brand's regional debut: HOTELS Magazine and Marriott International's official release.

Yes. Moxy Tulum was executed under the brand's standards and review processes, and the architectural design of Marriott Chihuahua was developed to the same criteria.
