Larimar City & Resort Reinforces Its Position as a Leading International Real Estate Investment Destination at SIMA 2026
The participation of CLERHP and its flagship development Larimar City & Resort at SIMA 2026 concluded with remarkable success, further strengthening the project’s reputation as one of the most ambitious and promising international real estate developments currently available to global investors. Over the course of the exhibition in Madrid,c & Resort attracted extensive attention from institutional investors, real estate professionals, commercial operators, strategic partners, and prospective buyers seeking secure and high-growth opportunities in the international property market.
The strong reception at SIMA 2026 highlighted the growing global appetite for innovative real estate projects that combine modern urban planning, long-term profitability, sustainability, and legal transparency. As one of the most talked-about developments at the exhibition, Larimar demonstrated how large-scale smart city concepts are increasingly becoming a preferred investment alternative for international buyers looking beyond traditional real estate destinations.
Located in the rapidly expanding tourism and investment hub of Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, Larimar City & Resort has positioned itself as much more than a conventional residential project. The development represents a comprehensive smart city model designed to integrate residential living, tourism, leisure, business infrastructure, sustainability, and technology into a single ecosystem. This integrated approach generated considerable interest among visitors attending SIMA, many of whom viewed the project as a benchmark for the future of international urban development.
One of the major highlights of Larimar’s participation was its innovative use of immersive technology. Visitors to the company’s exhibition space were offered a cutting-edge virtual reality experience that allowed them to explore the project in a highly interactive and realistic way. Through VR technology, attendees were virtually transported to Punta Cana, where they could discover the city’s urban design, premium residential areas, green spaces, infrastructure, panoramic views, and lifestyle amenities.
The immersive presentation created a powerful impact among both investors and industry professionals. Many visitors described the experience as one of the most innovative presentations at the exhibition, as it enabled them to gain a detailed understanding of the project’s scale, architecture, and long-term vision without physically traveling to the Dominican Republic. This technological approach reinforced Larimar’s image as a forward-thinking development aligned with the evolving expectations of modern investors and buyers.
Throughout the event, the Larimar and CLERHP teams maintained an intensive agenda of commercial, institutional, and strategic meetings. Discussions focused on the current evolution of the project, investment opportunities, and the increasing international demand for real estate assets supported by solid corporate structures and long-term development plans. Industry experts at SIMA emphasized that investors are increasingly prioritizing projects that offer not only attractive returns but also operational transparency, financial security, and sustainable growth potential.
According to company representatives, one of the main factors driving interest in Larimar City & Resort is the Dominican Republic’s growing position as a strategic destination for international real estate investment. Over recent years, the country has emerged as one of the Caribbean’s most dynamic economies, benefiting from strong tourism growth, international connectivity, favorable investment conditions, and increasing infrastructure development. Punta Cana, in particular, has become a magnet for foreign investment due to its expanding tourism sector and high demand for residential and vacation properties.
During the exhibition, Alberto Muñoz, Commercial Director of Larimar City & Resort, underlined the changing priorities of international investors. He explained that today’s buyers are seeking projects capable of delivering not only financial returns but also stability and long-term value creation. He noted that the market is experiencing a growing demand for real estate products that combine profitability, security, and a sustainable vision for future growth.
José Joaquín Alonso, Director of External Sales, also highlighted the strategic advantages offered by the Dominican Republic as an investment destination. He emphasized that international investors increasingly recognize the country’s economic potential and stability within the Caribbean region. Alonso further stressed the added confidence provided by the backing of CLERHP, a publicly traded Spanish company with extensive experience in engineering, infrastructure, and real estate development. According to him, the corporate strength and transparency of CLERHP represent an important differentiating factor for investors evaluating international property opportunities.
Another key moment during SIMA 2026 was the participation of Juan Andrés Romero, President of CLERHP and CEO of Larimar City & Resort, in one of the exhibition’s official auditorium presentations. During his presentation, Romero analyzed the current international investment landscape and explained how projects such as Larimar are responding to the growing demand for secure, diversified, and globally connected real estate assets.
Romero also discussed the importance of adapting urban developments to new global trends, including sustainability, digitalization, integrated infrastructure, and experiential living concepts. He explained that Larimar’s development model aims to create a fully planned city environment capable of combining residential quality, tourism appeal, economic activity, and environmental responsibility in a single destination. His presentation attracted strong interest from investors and professionals attending the conference sessions, many of whom expressed interest in exploring future collaboration opportunities with the company.
Beyond its public presentations and exhibition activities, the company also used SIMA 2026 as a platform for strengthening relationships with investors, shareholders, suppliers, and strategic business partners. Numerous private meetings were held during the event, allowing the company to advance discussions regarding future collaborations, commercial alliances, and expansion opportunities linked to the Larimar project.
According to company representatives, several new strategic partnerships are currently under development and are expected to be announced in the coming months. These collaborations are anticipated to further reinforce the project’s international reach and accelerate various phases of development within the smart city initiative.
Larimar’s participation in Madrid also generated substantial media attention. The company’s executives received more than a dozen interview requests from national and international media outlets covering the exhibition. This high level of press interest reflected the growing visibility of the project within the international real estate sector and confirmed its increasing relevance among global investment discussions.
Industry analysts attending SIMA observed that international buyers are now showing greater interest in mixed-use developments and smart city concepts that provide diversified value propositions beyond traditional real estate investments. Projects like Larimar City & Resort are benefiting from this shift because they offer a combination of residential, tourism, commercial, and lifestyle opportunities within a professionally planned environment.
The success achieved at SIMA 2026 represents another important milestone in Larimar City & Resort’s international expansion strategy. By combining advanced technology, strategic urban planning, strong corporate backing, and an attractive investment destination, the project continues to position itself as one of the Caribbean’s most significant emerging real estate developments.
As global investors increasingly seek stable and future-oriented investment opportunities, Larimar City & Resort appears well positioned to capitalize on the growing international demand for smart, sustainable, and integrated urban developments. Its strong performance at SIMA 2026 not only reinforced investor confidence but also confirmed the project’s growing role in shaping the future of international real estate investment.
