Four Seasons to expand Punta Mita outpost with new tented resort

Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts has unveiled plans to expand Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita with the addition of Naviva, a new luxury tented resort.

Set to open in late 2022, Naviva, A Four Seasons Resort, Punta Mita, Mexico will offer a collection of 15 luxury tents nestled in the lush forests of the Riviera Nayarit with views of the Pacific Ocean. Working with Luxury Frontiers, the low-impact sanctuary will be deeply integrated into its natural surroundings, allowing for seamless movement between indoor and outdoor living.

Ahead of arrival, guests will be matched with a personal guide to create a bespoke itinerary based on their specific needs and desires, choosing from a range of experiences or simply relaxing in their beautiful surroundings.

Guests will be immersed in the natural design from the moment of arrival, meeting their guides on a cocoon-inspired bamboo bridge overlooking a 30ft ravine. The design aesthetic continues with butterfly-inspired guest tents perched on hillsides, each with private pools and expansive decks, and many with outdoor gardens.

The property will celebrate its natural surroundings through an organic aesthetic and design, with sustainable elements including solar panels, efficient water systems and natural drainage, electric vehicles, upcycled artwork and locally sourced products, materials, produce and ingredients.

The onsite restaurant, Copal, will be a farm-to-table open-air Mexican grill house overlooking the seascapes of Punta Mita, and will serve fresh homegrown produce and bountiful sea catches on a rotating seasonal menu.

Additional facilities will include an expansive pool inspired by the enveloping jungle, access to a secluded beach, spa pods that offer customisable treatments featuring products made from local ingredients, a cliffside yoga pavilion and an outdoor gym.

The onsite programming has been thoughtfully curated with the support of local experts and has been designed to allow for heightened personalisation – such as one-on-one interactions with the resort executive chef; personal training sessions in the outdoor gym experience; private dinners with ocean views and bespoke menus; or exploring Mexico’s hidden wine and spirits scene. Guests will also have full access to Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita, including the restaurant and bar offerings, additional spa and fitness facilities, and beach and pool access.
