"Set on Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit with direct beach access, this sprawling 55,000-square-foot resort blends luxury accommodations with local Indigenous culture. It has 324 rooms and suites—including beachfront units that exceed 1,400 square feet with patios and private plunge pools, two-bedroom residences with full kitchens, and ADA-compliant options—plus three pools (one adults-only infinity pool with a swim-up bar) and private butler-serviced cabanas. Décor leans on light woods, wicker, local artwork, and Byredo’s Mojave Ghost toiletries; guests can even enjoy a floating breakfast in a private plunge pool. Culinary offerings span seven venues: an elevated Mexican restaurant where a smoke energy-cleansing ritual precedes dishes like a standout tuna tartare molete; an open-fire beachfront grill serving zarandeado-style fish and smoked local oysters (with a beach barbecue featuring fresh catch from La Cruz de Huanacaxtle fishermen); a breakfast terrace where chilaquiles are a must-order; pool and swim-up bars; and an agave studio for guided tastings. The spa and wellness programming are rooted in Huichol-inspired rituals, with cocoon-like outdoor treatment spaces and a popular temazcal ceremony—a domed purification led by a local shaman that guests describe as deeply fulfilling but physically intense—alongside kupuri smoke-and-meditation sessions. On-site activities include biking, cooking and cocktail classes, sailing, fishing, horseback riding, zip-lining, a gym, and easy access to nearby attractions like Sayulita, San Pancho, the Marieta Islands, and an 18-hole golf course; families benefit from kids’ pools, a water slide, a Turi Kids Club, and kids-eat-free policies for under-12s. Practical perks include shuttle service from Puerto Vallarta airport, membership benefits through Hilton Honors and American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts, and nightly rates starting around $320." - Jalyn Robinson Jalyn Robinson Jalyn Robinson is the assistant travel editor at Dotdash Meredith, working for both Travel + Leisure and TripSavvy.
