Cozumel, Q.R. — Royal Caribbean says once permits are in order, they will begin construction of their new Cozumel beach club. A day pass to access the up-and-coming Royal Beach Club Cozumel at Playa Paradise will set you back a whopping $310 USD per person.
According to the company, the price of $310 USD or around 5,560 pesos at the current exchange rate, includes a 30 minute massage for two, a bottle of champaign, waterpark access and a day bed (if available).
Royal Caribbean says “construction will begin following the completion of all regulatory and environmental permits. The current access will remain open until the new facilities are fully operational, guaranteeing uninterrupted public access during the transition.”
In a statement, the company explained that they “will create a new public beach access in the Zona Hotelera Sur as part of the development of Royal Beach Club Cozumel, reinforcing its commitment to community well-being and sustainable tourism.
“The new path will significantly improve public beach access, which has long faced challenges such as traffic conflicts, lack of signage and lighting. The relocation will ensure greater accessibility, improved safety, and enhanced facilities.”
Ari Adler Brotman, President of Royal Caribbean Mexico said, “We are excited to bring the Royal Beach Club experience to Cozumel while ensuring that beach access, a right guaranteed under Mexican law, is available to all.
“This initiative reflects our dedication to creating shared value by improving safety, accessibility and infrastructure for the community.”
The cruise line company says “the program is aligned with Royal Caribbean’s SEA the Future initiative which seeks to offer the best vacation experiences responsibly, sustaining the planet, energizing communities, and accelerating innovation.
“Royal Caribbean’s commitment to supporting projects that uplift and uphold environmental preservation, economic development, and sustainability plays a vital role in ensuring that coastal destinations remain resilient, welcoming, and vibrant for generations to come.”
The island’s new Royal Beach Club Cozumel is set to be operational this year during 2026. According to the company, construction will create 180 jobs and more than 700 employees will be hired to work in the beach club.
“Royal Caribbean intends to increase deployment to Cozumel to bring an additional 1 million guests by 2031. Royal Beach Club Cozumel will contribute over $350M to the MX GDP over the next 5 years.”
The company submitted their documents for Cozumel construction permits in December of 2025. Royal Caribbean is also revamping the cruise dock of Mahahual after purchasing the land to create Perfect Day Mahahual.
