Punta de Mita, Playa Destiladeras, Mexico
Rating9.2
Rating9.0The activity program is the strongest in the Marival portfolio: non-motorized water sports (kayaking, paddleboarding, windsurfing, boogie boarding, Hobie cat) included on the beach, daily wellness programming (yoga, sound healing, watsu water therapy, Tai Chi), and three weekly signature parties (Armony Vibes on Fridays, Mita Beats pool party on Saturdays, Flow with the Glow on Wednesdays). Kids' and teen programs run daily after the April 2025 transition to family-friendly.
The flagship pool — Pacific Ocean/Banderas Bay views, swim-up Drops bar, central to the Mita Beats Saturday pool party. The most social pool on the property and where most activity-focused guests spend their day.
Quieter pools in the garden areas — less activity noise, more appropriate for guests seeking genuine relaxation during the day.
Dedicated family pool areas post-April 2025 family-friendly transition. Suitable for all ages.
Available in select suite categories — particularly the Allure Swim-Up Junior Suite. Private access from the room terrace.
