The Urban Pulse Meets the Caribbean

The Landmark is a premium residential development of 185 units in downtown Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, situated just one block from Fifth Avenue. Featuring a private Sky Club of over 2,000 m² and units starting from 23.36 m², it offers high connectivity and a pre-sale payment plan consisting of a 30% down payment, 60% during construction, and 10% upon delivery.

The experience of living in downtown Playa del Carmen is defined by immediacy. Walking through the entrance lobby of The Landmark, the environment transitions from the vibrant urban dynamics of 10th Avenue to an interior space dominated by contemporary design with clean lines, local materials, and an atmosphere of privacy. From this point, the beach is just a few steps away, allowing you to completely bypass the need for a vehicle to access the main dining, shopping, and entertainment options of the Riviera Maya. Upon heading up to the rooftop Sky Club, the perspective changes entirely. The view opens up directly toward the horizon of the Caribbean Sea, offering a retreat of over 2,000 square meters designed for relaxation, disconnection, or high-productivity remote work. The Landmark establishes itself as an efficient residential structure that responds precisely to the demands of a cosmopolitan user who prioritizes strategic location, spatial functionality, and a first-class service infrastructure in one of the fastest-growing cities in the state.

Space Distribution

The development consists of a contemporary design tower that houses a total of 185 exclusive residences distributed across different levels, with strict access control to guarantee the safety and privacy of its residents. The materials selected for construction and final finishes prioritize durability against the coastal climate, utilizing high-resistance concrete, thermal and acoustic specification aluminum window frames, as well as local wood and stone that provide aesthetic warmth without compromising low maintenance.

Common amenities are primarily concentrated in the rooftop Sky Club and include an infinity pool with unobstructed ocean views, a pool bar, a sun deck with premium loungers, an outdoor dining area, a Chef's Table, a gym equipped with state-of-the-art machinery, an outdoor yoga platform, sauna cabins, a steam room, co-working spaces, and a boutique café-style lobby.

Connectivity and Urban Environment on 10th Avenue

Why is the intersection of 10th Avenue North and 14th Street North one of the most in-demand locations in Playa del Carmen? This intersection places residents at the epicenter of the city's tourist, commercial, and recreational activity. Located just one block from Fifth Avenue and adjacent to the Calle Corazón and Quinta Alegría shopping malls, the development has immediate access to convenience services, specialty supermarkets, banks, and international boutiques.

The gastronomic profile of the immediate area is one of the most consolidated in the Riviera Maya, highlighted by the presence of high-end restaurants such as Sonora Prime, Ilios, Porfirio's, Harry's, and Nicoletta, which attracts a constant flow of high-net-worth visitors. Additionally, proximity to established hotel options like the Hyatt Centric and beach clubs such as Lido Beach Club reinforces the area's positioning as a premier destination.

In terms of regional mobility, the development offers direct connectivity to Federal Highway 307, facilitating quick travel to key points in the state:

Cancun International Airport: 45 minutes by car.

Archaeological Zone and Town of Tulum: 40 minutes heading south.

Akumal: 24 minutes for turtle nesting sights and diving activities.

Puerto Morelos: 21 minutes toward the national reef park.

Holbox Island: 84 minutes of ground travel to the Chiquilá dock.

This road infrastructure ensures that both long-term residents and short-term guests can travel comfortably, consolidating downtown Playa del Carmen as a strategic base of operations within the Yucatan Peninsula.

Capital Appreciation and Associated Costs

Acquiring units in The Landmark benefits from the dynamics of pre-sale real estate in established zones. The standard payment plan consists of a 30% initial down payment, 60% deferred in monthly installments throughout the building process, and 10% upon physical delivery and deed registration of the property, allowing buyers an efficient distribution of their capital flows.

When evaluating a property in downtown Playa del Carmen, it is essential to consider the associated transaction costs to perform a comprehensive financial analysis:

Property Acquisition Tax (ISAI / ISABI): This local tax ranges between 2% and 3% of the tax assessment value or transaction value of the property at the time of deed registration in the state of Quintana Roo.

Notary Fees and Closing/Deed Registration Costs: Typically represent between 1.5% and 2.5% of the total transaction value.

HOA Maintenance Fee: destined for the operation of 24/7 security, preventive and corrective maintenance of the over 2,000 m² of Sky Club amenities, and the building's common areas.

Income Tax (ISR): Applicable to income earned from vacation or long-term rentals, the effective rate of which will depend on the tax regime under which the owner pays taxes (individual, digital platform, or corporate entity).

The positioning of a tower with only 185 apartments and a rooftop of over 2,000 m² generates a clear competitive advantage compared to higher-density projects or those lacking leisure infrastructure oriented to the premium segment. This configuration reduces internal competition of rental units within the same tower and preserves the property's long-term capital appreciation.
