Costa Mujeres is a waterfront residential corridor north of Cancun, located on the continental coast facing Isla Mujeres in the Isla Mujeres municipality, Quintana Roo, except for the stretch just south of latitude 21°12′42″ N —where Ocean Towers sits—, which is already Benito Juárez (Cancún). The zone consolidated as a luxury hotel destination since the opening of the Playa Mujeres Golf Club designed by Greg Norman and the arrival of five-star hotel chains like Excellence, Secrets, RIU, TRS Coral by Palladium, Catalonia, Ocean Allure, Atelier and Finest. Today it combines a gated enclave (Playa Mujeres), branded residences (St. Regis Marriott, La Amada), wellness retreats (SHA Wellness Clinic, Spanish brand) and pre-construction residential developments (Dhamar by Grupo PROFEX, Mistral) with more accessible tickets than Puerto Cancun or Hotel Zone.

The Nautilus portfolio in Costa Mujeres includes 6 verified developments with real availability: Ocean Towers Residences (pre-construction by ALSADI & Urban House, two towers, delivery 2028-2029), Dhamar Costa Mujeres (pre-construction by Grupo PROFEX, 56 units in phase 1 of 2 (112 total), delivery July 2028, adjacent to St. Regis and SHA Wellness), The Residences at The St. Regis Costa Mujeres (Marriott branded with 24/7 hotel services and signature spa), La Amada Costa Mujeres (full master plan with private marina, Greg Norman golf and beach club), Mistral Costa Mujeres (residential tower on the Caribbean Sea) and El Encanto Punta Sam (boutique condo hotel with 20 units and a private beach facing Isla Mujeres). Plus a 7,390 m² land block of three lots sold together, 4,890 m² of it beachfront.

The competitive differentiation of Costa Mujeres are its resort amenities: the Playa Mujeres Golf Club (18 championship holes par 72 + 9-hole short course = 27 total holes, designed by Greg Norman with four holes playing toward the white sand beach), the white sand beaches and turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, Marina La Amada with services for private yachts, the SHA Wellness Clinic Costa Mujeres (Spanish brand of wellness retreats with macrobiotic diet and holistic therapies), and direct boat proximity to Isla Mujeres (10 min). Connectivity: 35-45 minutes from Cancun International Airport (CUN, with direct flights to NYC, Chicago, LA, Miami, Houston, Dallas, CDMX and seasonal European routes).

Who designed the Costa Mujeres golf course?
The Playa Mujeres Golf Club was designed by Greg Norman, PGA Tour legend (winner of 91 professional tournaments including the British Open). Includes 18 championship holes par 72 plus an additional 9-hole short course = 27 total holes. Ecologically sensitive layout that utilizes native vegetation and indigenous trees of the Mexican Caribbean. Four holes play toward or from the white sand beach of the Caribbean Sea. 2026 reference rates: greens fees from $180-$280 USD depending on season (includes cart). Partner hotels offering golf packages: RIU Costa Mujeres, TRS Coral, Palladium, Catalonia, Ocean Allure and Planet Hollywood. Located within the Playa Mujeres / Costa Mujeres corridor.
What hotels are in Costa Mujeres?
Costa Mujeres concentrates one of the largest five-star all-inclusive hotel offerings in Cancun. Confirmed hotels operating: Excellence Playa Mujeres (AAA Four Diamond, adults-only, signature Greg Norman golf access), Secrets Playa Mujeres (adults-only all-suite AAA Four Diamond), RIU Costa Mujeres, TRS Coral by Palladium (adults-only luxury), Catalonia Costa Mujeres, Ocean Allure Costa Mujeres, Planet Hollywood Costa Mujeres, Atelier Estudio Playa Mujeres, Finest Playa Mujeres and SLS Playa Mujeres (Ennismore lifestyle all-inclusive). The St. Regis Costa Mujeres Resort (Marriott luxury with branded residences) and the SHA Wellness Clinic Costa Mujeres (Spanish wellness retreats brand) also operate here. This hotel concentration keeps the corridor's tourism active; whether a condo can be rented short-term is decided by each development's bylaws.
Does Costa Mujeres have a marina?
Yes. Costa Mujeres has two operational marinas: (1) Marina La Amada within the La Amada Costa Mujeres master-planned development, with complete services for private yachts and recreational vessels — departure point for luxury yacht charters and sunset tours to Isla Mujeres and Isla Contoy; (2) the public Playa Mujeres marina within the gated enclave. The marinas are smaller than Puerto Cancun's but sufficient for residential owner yachts. For mega yachts 100+ feet the Puerto Cancun marina is generally used (15-20 min south). Costa Mujeres is also the natural departure point to Isla Mujeres due to proximity (10 min by boat vs 30 min from Puerto Juárez).
What is the difference between Costa Mujeres and Playa Mujeres?
Costa Mujeres is the broad corridor (~5 km of continental coast) north of Cancun, mostly in the Isla Mujeres municipality (the stretch just south of latitude 21°12′42″ N, where Ocean Towers sits, is Benito Juárez), including several residential and hotel sub-zones. Playa Mujeres is the specific gated waterfront enclave within Costa Mujeres that houses the Greg Norman golf course, hotels like Excellence, Secrets, Finest, Atelier and residential developments like La Amada. Punta Sam is another sub-corridor to the north where El Encanto is located. In practical terms: Costa Mujeres = the complete geographic zone · Playa Mujeres = the main gated community within Costa Mujeres · Punta Sam = the adjacent corridor to the north. For real estate investment purposes the three terms are used interchangeably.
How to get to Costa Mujeres from the Airport?
Costa Mujeres is accessed via Carretera a Punta Sam (Mex-180 north). Official distances from Cancun International Airport (CUN): 35-45 minutes via Blvd. Luis Donaldo Colosio + Av. López Portillo + Carretera Punta Sam (~30 km). Additional distances: 15 minutes to Cancun Downtown · 20-25 minutes to Puerto Cancun · 30 minutes to Punta Cancun Hotel Zone · 25 minutes to Puerto Juárez (Isla Mujeres ferry) · 10 minutes by boat from Costa Mujeres directly to Isla Mujeres. Access from Maya Train: Cancun Norte station + 35 min transfer. Air connectivity from Cancun: 1 hour to Mérida · 2 hours to Miami, Houston, Dallas, CDMX · 4 hours to NYC, Chicago, LA.
Does the bank trust apply to foreign buyers in Costa Mujeres?
Yes. Costa Mujeres is within the Mexican restricted zone (50 km from the coast) so foreign buyers acquire via bank trust (fideicomiso), a standard legal vehicle regulated by the Foreign Investment Law. Approximate cost: $2,500-$4,000 USD initial setup plus ~$600 USD annual maintenance. Term: 50 years renewable indefinitely. Confers all property rights (use, sale, inheritance, rent, modification). The typical process takes 6-10 weeks and is managed with authorized banks such as Banamex, Santander, BBVA or Scotiabank. Nautilus coordinates with bilingual notaries and trust banks for the complete closing process, without the need to travel to Mexico during initial stages.
