Hotel Review: Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita
Diego Travel Hotel Review
Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita
An Authentic and Classical Luxury Mexican Resort
As you drive inside the gates of the gated community and home to the 400 acre nature reserve of Punta Mita, you’ll immediately feel like kicking off your shoes and getting your toes in the sand. The true spirit of Mexican hospitality is felt when the Four Seasons Punta Mita team offers a refreshing welcome cocktail and cold towel. Once you’ve settled into your home away from home, you can do or not do many of the exciting activities on offer – we primarily used our time to read and relax, but then had the opportunity to release baby sea turtles, which was a highlight of the trip.
General manager, John O’Sullivan, says “Here, you arrive as a guest, leave as a friend and return as family,” and that ethos is really felt throughout your stay at Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita.

Four Seasons Punta Mita
Situated on a private peninsula overlooking Bahia de Banderas, one of the largest natural bays in the world, and between the Sierra Madre mountains and the Pacific Ocean, Nayarit isn’t well-known to foreign tourists, even though it’s only about 45 minutes away from the more popular Puerto Vallarta. Puerto Vallarta is the nearest international airport, with flights from cities across North America.

Vibe at the Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita:
The vibe is distinctly relaxed and you won’t need to compete for space on the beach. And while being less crowded is undoubtedly a perk — the real appeal of Nayarit is the range of activities for every type of traveler. Guests love the gorgeous beaches, rich culture, and plentiful activities. Even though the resort is only 45 minutes from Puerto Vallarta, it feels a world away.

Activities at The Four Seasons Punta Mita:
The standout feature at Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita is the two championship golf courses designed by Jack Nicklaus. With oceanside holes, the Pacifico course features the world’s only par-three natural island green.
Watermen and women are also in luck here, with the resort being situated on one of the world’s largest natural bays, they have amazing snorkeling, scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, and seasonal whale watching.
The Four Seasons Punta Mita is also a great destination for surfers. While a couple of playful reef breaks can be found directly in front of the resort the rest of Punta Mita’s better known breaks such as El Faro and La Bahia are easily accessed by boat. The resort’s hidden perk however, is access to the private “EL Surf Club at La Lancha” for Four Seasons Guests.
The resort also offers horseback riding on the beach, a luxury infinity-edge adult-only pool with private cabanas, and a lazy river pool. You can even make your own tequila blend with 50 aromas and authentic local barrels for a unique souvenir to take home.

What sets The Four Seasons Punta Mita appart:
You know what to expect when you stay at a Four Seasons. The luxury brand is so well-known, and yet, our stay at Four Seasons Punta Mita far exceeded all the expectations we had of a Four Seasons resort.
The level of attentive hospitality and personalization is a true stand out and made our stay at Riviera Nayarit so memorable.
From the spectacular location to the concierge service and the variety of activities and amenities available on the property, I’m confident that this is a trip that Diego Travel clients will love as much as I did.

Diego Travel Insider Tip:
- If you’re looking for a unique, adults-only stay, the recently opened Naviva Four Seasons is also nearby and offers beautiful, luxury beach tent accommodation.
- With 10 tents and 5 large tents, this is an all-inclusive resort that reconnects its guests with nature at the heart of a 19-hectare jungle beachfront location. This concept is intended to be more intimate and less formal, really extending the Mexican hospitality we saw at the Four Seasons Punta Mita with the concept of being welcomed into a friend’s house and being greeted by first name instead of Mr. and Mrs…
- The itinerary at Naviva Four Seasons is built out bespoke to you and your vacation, each itinerary is different depending on whether you’re looking for rest and wellness or adventure and fitness. Food amenities are also bespoke, with no menus found on the resort and no restaurant, just la cocina de la casa. Instead, the food is made according to guests’ tastes and can be adapted however you request.
- With one spa treatment included with your stay, Reiki and Shaman rituals on arrival, and bikes available for guests, everything is intimate, individual, and carefully curated to you.
- There’s also a sustainability and eco-focus here, with source panels to capture humidity in the air and convert it to drinking water, miles of trails on the resort, open-air gym and arrival pavilion and even the weights in the gym carved out of stone, Four Seasons Naviva is all about bringing you back to nature through wild luxury.
