Mayakoba, the 620-acre oceanfront resort and residential destination in Mexico’s Riviera Maya, has announced a new partnership with LIV Golf. The resort and its golf course, El Camaleón, will be the first stop of the season in North America and LIV Golf’s first-ever tournament in Latin America starting February 2023. “LIV Golf Mayakoba” is scheduled to take place on February 24-26, 2023, with a Pro-Am tournament on February 23.
The announcement comes on the heels of the 16th anniversary of the PGA Tour’s flagship event in Mexico, the “World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba” (formerly the “Mayakoba Golf Classic”), which was the first official event on the PGA Tour schedule outside of the United States and Canada.
El Camaleón was designed by LIV Golf CEO and commissioner Greg Norman. Weaving through the ecosystems of Mayakoba, including tropical jungle, mangroves, freshwater canals and oceanfront, El Camaleón is considered one of the most diverse golf courses in the world.
In addition to El Camaleón, Mayakoba is home to four luxury hotels—Andaz Mayakoba, Banyan Tree Mayakoba, Fairmont Mayakoba and Rosewood Mayakoba—besides three collections of private residences, including Rosewood Residences Mayakoba, Fairmont Heritage Place Mayakoba, and The Reserve. The oceanfront destination offers a range of lifestyle experiences including four spas, over 25 restaurants, and an array of recreational pursuits through Mayakoba Experiences, the Dive and Water Sports Center and Mayakoba Dive School, and El Pueblito, a village square that serves as an event space modeled after the historic colonial plazas of Mexico.
This event is made possible through a strategic alliance with Ciudad Mayakoba, the first sustainable master-planned community in the Riviera Maya. Mayakoba Country Club, a new residential development located within Ciudad Mayakoba, is under construction and will bring further offerings to the destination, including a new golf course designed by Spanish golfer and LIV Golf star, Sergio Garcia, slated to debut in 2024, besides wellness-oriented amenities and a beach club.
