Escape to Punta Mita ~ A Refreshing Twist on Resort Travel

Nestled within the Pacific coast in the Mexican state of Nayarit, Punta Mita is a stunning destination given the area’s stunning natural beauty and countless activities and attractions – from seaside marketplaces brimming with Huichol art and crafts to world-renowned dining and terrific outdoor adventures.

Perched on the ocean in the heart of one of Mexico’s most gorgeous beaches, we invite you to immerse yourself in a truly remarkable retreat experience.

We’ve partnered with W Punta de Mita who pays homage to the area’s profound cultural history. Here, Colonial grandeur blends seamlessly with the extraordinary artistry of the indigenous Huichol peoples. These elements exist in harmony with a very modern sensibility that extends throughout the W, setting the stage for an unforgettable retreat experience. Light-filled rooms provide a sophisticated oasis on the shores of the Pacific. Laze on a lounge chair at WET Pool and Deck as you enjoy a cool ceviche or indulge in some “me time” at Away Spa. Celebrate the sensuality of South Asian cuisine at Spice Market, Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s imaginative restaurant concept.  In between surfing and yoga, let our personal concierge help you book an exciting excursion – or slip away to the beach and enjoy the fine art of doing nothing.

Blessed with consistent swells in the small to medium range, and a regular supply of chest to head waves, Punta Mita offers a range of playful, reef waves, and a classic right point that can be epic on its day.  The surf is ideal for beginners to intermediate and advanced. Our breaks are conveniently accessible via boat trip daily departing from town.

We will offer delicious yoga that nurtures the mind and body to open and restore the muscles and energy after a day of surfing. Our practices are designed to illuminate acceptance and gratitude for the moment and offer invitations to absorb mind-body nourishment through grounding, opening, and restorative flows.  The magical recipe of Surf & Yoga combined with our Live Bliss Coaching Program will inspire you to connect to your authentic self by igniting the spark that resides within you and allowing you to take steps towards cultivating more bliss in your life.
