Mission · Misión

Built together. Built to be found.

La Onda is a community platform — built with the people who live, work, and play here. By us, with you.

ForLocals · ExpatsVisitors
The one beautiful place to find what's actually happening.

One clean feed, in your language, no algorithm pushing you around. The good stuff for the week — events, workshops, pop-ups, parties, cenotes — in five minutes.

ForBusinesses · NomadsEntrepreneurs
Not another ad to buy. It's the engine that gets you found.

The software, the systems, and the tools that get you found and keep you running — the hard, unglamorous work nobody has time for, wrapped in something people were already searching for.

We don't run ads. We build the engine the whole community runs on.

01 · What La Onda is

One place for what's happening.

La Onda VIP aggregates events, beaches, places, and experiences from across the Riviera Maya into one feed — verified by the community, free to discover. Behind every listing is an AI that goes out and finds what's missing, and a person who confirms what matters.

02 · What we stand for

Five promises. They don't change.

Free to discover. Always.

Zero commission for the people looking. The basic feed is free — it always will be. Listing or claiming an event starts at $50 MXN, depending on the type.

We don't sell your data — ever.

We don't share it with advertisers. We don't use it to train third-party AI. If you subscribe, your email stays between you and us — that's it.

Your customers stay yours.

We don't ask for your Instagram access. We don't send on your behalf. We don't automate your voice. We send people your way — you greet them, you wow them with your event. We're the marketing team behind you, not on top of you.

You build the algorithm.

Yes, we re-order the feed — Founding Partners and featured plans get more exposure, and we say so openly. But what we build after that gets decided by members in La Onda Ideas: public proposals, votes, a roadmap in plain sight. We lay the base — you decide where it goes next.

Quintana Roo first. No hurry to leave.

We live here. We walk to the events. We started in Spanish, in Tulum, and yes — we'd love to take this further. But the region comes first, and we'll take the time to do it right. We're not going anywhere: La Onda gets built with this community, not lifted away from it.

The community · La comunidad

This isn't La Onda. It's the community + you.

The community builds it. We hold the platform up. Without you, this is a pretty empty site. With you, it's the infrastructure layer the Riviera Maya needed — and the one you decide where it grows next.

03 · Who it's for

Four kinds of people. One feed.

01LocalsYou've lived here a long time — maybe you grew up here. But your next best friend is at an event you don't know about yet.
02ExpatsThe real scenes — not the tourist ones. Dive into what the Riviera Maya actually is, and become part of it.
03TouristsFor finding the best weekend in five minutes — not five open browser tabs.
04OrganizersFor getting your event in front of the people who'd actually love it — and we handle the technical stuff so you can focus on making it incredible.
04 · How it works

Three steps. One done right.

Step 01

We gather.

Ondees — our AI — goes out every morning to scout the Riviera Maya. Events, workshops, pop-ups, new places — surfaced before you'd ever think to look. How exactly? That's his secret.

Step 02

The community confirms.

Ondees isn't right 100% of the time — and that's where you come in. If you see something, say something. Confirm a date, fix a detail, flag a duplicate, help another member. And over in La Onda Ideas, vote on what we build next.

Step 03

You discover.

A clean feed, in your language, no algorithm. Filter by city, date, type of plan — find the good stuff in under five minutes.
