Calling all Royal Caribbean fans: There’s a new beach club experience in the works.

The world’s largest cruise line has announced the expansion of its destination lineup with the forthcoming Royal Beach Club Cozumel in Mexico, which is slated to open 2026.

“We are delighted to build on our longstanding partnership with the local community and government to continue bringing our guests to Mexico,” said Jason Liberty, president and CEO, Royal Caribbean Group. “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 beach club will be located along the western coast of the island, according to a Royal Caribbean press release. The news follows Royal Caribbean’s previous big reveal that Royal Beach Club Paradise Island in The Bahamas will open in 2025.

“Now is the perfect time to announce the next iteration of this collection with Royal Beach Club Cozumel,” said Michael Bayley, president and CEO, Royal Caribbean International. “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.”

In addition to plenty of beachfront fun, Royal Caribbean's new beach club location will feature pools, swim-up bars, dedicated pools for relaxation enthusiasts and families, private cabanas, snorkeling, kayaking, and more.

There will also be variety of dining spots including a restaurant, bar and lounge with tropical views, and a street market, as well as hands-on experiences such as tequila tastings and cooking classes.

The new beach club experience is the latest in the cruise line’s growing lineup of destinations, which already includes Perfect Day at CocoCay, The Bahamas

More details about Royal Beach Club Cozumel are expected to be revealed by Royal Caribbean line in coming months.
