Royal Caribbean announces new beach club experience: Royal Beach Club Cozumel, Mexico
Royal Caribbean International is putting a new beach club experience on the map as part of expansion of its destination lineup with Royal Beach Club Cozumel in Mexico, opening in 2026.
At the future location of the beach club along the western coast of the island, Royal Caribbean Group President and CEO Jason Liberty and Royal Caribbean International President and CEO Michael Bayley revealed plans for the next experience in the Royal Beach Club Collection while alongside the secretary of tourism of Quintana Roo in Mexico, Bernardo Cueto Riestra, and the mayor of Cozumel, Juanita Alonso.
“We are delighted to build on our longstanding partnership with the local community and government to continue bringing our guests to Mexico,” Liberty, said.
“The expansion of our destination offerings aligns with the growing global demand for the ultimate vacation experiences and enables our guests to connect with the beauty of local cultures and people in the places they visit.”
“The anticipation for what’s next when it comes to Royal Caribbean destinations has only continued to build since we revealed Royal Beach Club Paradise Island in The Bahamas that opens in 2025,” Bayley said.
“Now is the perfect time to announce the next iteration of this collection with Royal Beach Club Cozumel.
“Cozumel is an incredible destination, and the beach club will perfectly complement all the island has to offer as an experience that combines familiar Royal Caribbean touches with the spirit of Mexico, alongside amenities and activities for every type of vacationer.”
Featuring striking beaches, views and pools for every vibe, Royal Beach Club Cozumel will welcome vacationers to their ultimate beach day in Mexico, complete with Royal Caribbean’s signature attention to detail across the experience, service and design.
For a taste of Mexico and quintessential beach day favourites, coming to the table will be a variety of dining spots like a restaurant, bar and lounge with views – and flavour – for days and a street market as well as hands-on experiences like tequila tastings and cooking classes.
The new beach club experience is the latest in the cruise line’s growing lineup of destinations, which includes the top-rated Perfect Day at CocoCay, The Bahamas, that set the bar for private islands after a $250 million transformation in 2019. From ongoing expansions to the island – like the newly opened adults-only Hideaway Beach – to the Royal Beach Club Collection, Royal Caribbean has set the stage for vacationers to create their perfect vacation day in more ways than one in The Bahamas and the eastern and western Caribbean.
More details about Royal Beach Club Cozumel will be revealed in the coming months.
