Discover Punta Mita Mexico: Your Next Family Beach Getaway

Punta Mita, located about 30 minutes north of the Puerto Vallarta airport, is a new-ish development that includes a lush. jungle-clad coastline that stretches up towards the surf town of Sayulita.

This area has historically been a bit under the radar, which of course is part of the appeal.

Home to luxury resorts like the St. Regis and Four Seasons and plenty of amazing private villas, our favorite feature of this area is the swimmable beaches. Unlike much of Mexico's Pacific coast, here you will find several safe, swimmable beaches and coves making it perfect for a family beach getaway to Mexico.

Over the past few months in our luxury travel circles we've been hearing a lot about Punta Mita. It's the perfect destination for a socially distanced beach getaway. Plus, some exciting new developments are about to launch. Here's what's inspiring us to hop on a flight right now.

One & Only Mandarina Punta Mita

At the new One & Only Mandarina you can enjoy what they call a "unifying environment amidst the palm-fringed sands and emerald cliffside, punctuated with lagoons and estuaries, that encourage you to reconnect with yourself, those you love and the natural world."

While the property is set to open in a few months, the video certainly reflects a commitment to blending into the surroundings and respecting the cultural heritage of the region.
