Living in Corasol 2026:
Memberships, Amenities and Why It's The Most Ambitious Master Plan in Playa del Carmen

Corasol functions as an integrated residential resort: Costa Beach Club of 42,000 m² with 3 named restaurants, Gran Coyote Golf by Nick Price, The Park with 14 sports amenities, inheritable and lifetime memberships. Why ultra-luxury buyers choose Corasol and how it compares with Playacar.

📝 By Carlos Martín — Nautilus Real Estate 📅 Published 📍 Corasol · Playa del Carmen · Quintana Roo

When an international buyer asks for the most ambitious residential area in Playa del Carmen, the answer has a name: Corasol. It's the only master plan in Riviera Maya combining 236 hectares designed from scratch as an integrated destination, architecture signed by Sordo Madaleno and CUAIK — two of Mexico's most recognized firms — with international hotel-level resort amenities and a membership system that turns lifetime when you acquire property and secures the owner's lifestyle for generations.

This is the silent reason why Corasol maintains sustained appreciation in Playa del Carmen's ultra-luxury segment: it's not just another gated community with 24/7 security. It's a residential tourist community where every amenity — from the golf course to the sushi restaurant — was designed with destination vision, not subdivision mindset. That's why residents don't leave and resale supply is scarce.

This guide covers everything Corasol offers: Costa Beach Club with its 35 amenities, Gran Coyote Golf, The Park, the 3 paths to the sea, the four memberships with prices and maintenance, the 6 residential products in the master plan, how it compares with Playacar, and the 2026 available inventory. Every detail is verified with official material from developer Origina.

Who develops Corasol?

Corasol is developed by Origina, one of Mexico's leading real estate developers with headquarters in Santa Fe, Mexico City (Torre Zentrum, Floor 14). Origina has 6 active projects: 2 in Mexico City (Origina Pedregal, Origina Santa Fe), 1 in State of Mexico (Valle de Bravo) and 3 in Quintana Roo. Its annual sales projection exceeds $4,000 million Mexican pesos, positioning it in the national top tier.

The master architectural team

Costa Beach Club: 42,000 m² with 3 named restaurants

Corasol's #1 competitive differentiator versus Playacar and the rest of Riviera Maya is the Costa Beach Club — a members-only beach club with 42,000 m² extension and 120 linear meters of private beach on the Caribbean Sea. It's the master plan's social and wellness heart.

Restaurants with named identities

Unlike other developments where the beach club has a generic "restaurant", Costa Beach Club operates 3 gastronomic concepts with their own identity:

Spa with hydrotherapy ritual

The Costa Beach Club spa includes a complete hydrotherapy ritual: steam room, sauna, spa showers, jacuzzi, cold plunge, pool with hydromassage elements, and relaxation area. Additionally: 2 couples spa suites and 3 individual suites, complete locker rooms, showers and lockers.

Gym, kids club and water activities

Private Owners Club

In addition to the members-only beach club, Costa Residences features an Owners Club — an exclusive space only for Costa Residences owners on the beach, with lounge, wine cellar and private rooms facing the sea. It's the most exclusive level of privacy within the master plan.

Gran Coyote Golf: 18 holes par 71 by Nick Price

Corasol's golf course was designed by Nick Price, World Golf Hall of Fame member and former world champion. Gran Coyote Golf is a championship course meticulously designed with strategic challenges for all skill levels.

Course technical data

Investor tip: properties with direct golf course views at La Escondida (lots 720-850 m²), Palm Villas (estate homes 4-5 bed) and El Amate (golf front lots — currently sold out) capture the most appreciation by combining architectural exclusivity with permanent landscaping.

The Park: 14 sports amenities for the whole family

The Park is Corasol's sports complex, located adjacent to the golf course. It's a space surrounded by vegetation with facilities for all ages — from children at the pump park to adults at padel and pickleball.

Official master plan — 14 enumerated points

Access to The Park is included in all four Corasol memberships, from the $5,000 USD golf Members Path to the $40,000 USD Costa Full. Per the 2026 documentation it opens in 2027. The Park complements the beach club by offering an alternative sports zone for days when members prefer physical activity over beach relaxation.

3 paths to the sea: Corasol's unique flexibility

A frequent buyer question: "do I need to pay membership to go to the beach?". The answer in Corasol is no — because the master plan offers 3 distinct paths to the sea depending on owner profile:

1. Corasol public beach — no membership

All Corasol owners have access to the community's public beach without additional membership or cost. This beach allows coolers, folding chairs and portable palapas — ideal for those who prefer enjoying the beach with their own supplies without the obligation to consume at a beach club.

2. Costa Members Club — $40K USD membership

For the premium experience with 35 amenities, the 3 restaurants (OPULA, AMAKU, FARETTO), the spa with hydrotherapy ritual, gym, kids club and 4 pools: the Costa Members Club membership at $40,000 USD for 10 years, with $500 USD monthly maintenance. If you would rather try before committing, the Members Path costs $10,000 USD for two years and credits toward the Full. The lifetime membership comes with acquiring a property from Origina-Corasol.

3. Mareazul Beach Club — exclusive to Mareazul owners

If you buy at Mareazul Beachfront, you access a beach club EXCLUSIVE only for Mareazul owners, completely independent from Costa Beach Club. This benefit is included at no additional cost when buying the property — no Costa membership required. It's the smart "shortcut" for buyers who want a private beach club but prefer not to commit $40K USD to membership.

Flexibility summary: buy at Mareazul → exclusive beach club included. Buy at any other property (Costa, Palm Villas, The Village, La Escondida, Punta Laguna, AWA) → choose between free public beach or Costa Beach Club membership. No one is left without sea access.

Corasol memberships: price and maintenance

Corasol runs two clubs — Costa Members Club, the beach club, and Gran Coyote Golf — and each is sold in two formats: the 10-year Full and the 2-year Members Path, designed as an entry point. Both include access to The Park.

Membership Term Price Maintenance
Costa Members Club + The Park 10 years $40,000 USD $500 USD/month
Gran Coyote Golf + The Park 10 years $21,000 USD $350 USD/month
Costa · Members Path 2 years $10,000 USD $500 USD/month
Gran Coyote · Members Path 2 years $5,000 USD $350 USD/month

Prices and fees from Corasol's 2026 documentation. Maintenance is billed monthly, per the Gran Coyote fact sheet. The Park opens in 2027.

Members Path: the way in

This is the 2026 addition, and it changes the maths for anyone unwilling to commit $40,000 USD up front. For $10,000 USD at Costa or $5,000 USD at the golf club you get two years, and at the end of the term you decide: walk away, or stay. At Costa, 100% of what you paid credits toward the Full membership at the price of the day, with a further $1,000 USD off if you upgrade within the first six months. The stated allocation is 30 memberships.

Lifetime comes with buying

This is the part worth getting right: lifetime memberships are available when you acquire a property with Origina-Corasol, not as another tier in the catalogue. A membership bought on its own runs for 10 years; the one that secures the lifestyle for generations arrives with the property. It is also transferable to your children.

Generous family coverage

Memberships cover holder + spouse + parents of both + children under 28, all with the same benefits as the holder. At Costa, guests carry no additional charge; at the golf club up to 3 per day are allowed for a fee. Siblings can be added at extra cost.

Award-winning architecture: the Sordo Madaleno signature

The Village Resort & Residences is the flagship development of the Origina + Sordo Madaleno collaboration in Corasol. Designed with biophilic concept — where architecture "breathes" with the jungle — it won multiple international recognitions that validate the master plan's design level.

The Village international awards

The Village offers 2-bedroom apartments from 80 to 130 m², distributed in 6 buildings with lake and golf course views. Unique amenities: Sky Gym, Roof Bar, Jungle Cinema, Pet Spa, suspension bridge, organic gardens, yoga garden and open gallery.

Protected nature: Cenote Park and Organic Gardens

Cenote Park — two cenote caves

At the heart of Corasol, two cenote spaces are preserved: one designed for family life and another pet-friendly, both for community enjoyment. Each park features cenote caves with trees and native vegetation, creating a wild landscape immersed in a protected natural environment.

Organic Gardens by Fenix Farms

Corasol operates 3 types of gardens with regenerative agriculture: Landscape Gardens, Edible Gardens and Aromatic Gardens. The initiative, in collaboration with Fenix Farms, promotes local cultivation and consumption, fosters a healthy and conscious diet, connects residents with nature and strengthens the sense of community.

For entry-level + walkability + mature yield: Playacar. For resort amenities + award-winning architecture + ultra-luxury: Corasol.
