Finding Imanta: An Oceanfront Micro-Resort in Mexico’s Punta Mita
When the opportunity came up to visit Punta Mita on Mexico’s Pacific coast, I leaped at the chance. Who wouldn’t? Mexico is a world-class vacation destination for its impressive and varied landscapes. I’ve seen secluded colonial mountain-top towns and sleepy Caribbean fishing villages but the Pacific coast had so far eluded me. Exciting.
I’ve always had a lot of love for Mexico, and not just as a tourist destination. The country shines with a kind of simple friendliness which seems to be the unwritten rule of how this chaotic society functions. Sharing buena onda - good vibe - is the best way to get into the rhythm of Mexico. Once you catch the beat, you might get hooked too.
Punta Mita is a 1,500-acre peninsula in the state of Nayarit, close to Puerto Vallarta. The community is bordered on three sides by pristine white-sand beaches and the vibrant turquoise waters of the Pacific Ocean. The views are breathtaking as they sweep around the scenic coastline of the Bay of Banderas.
Punta Mita is a peaceful neighborhood of just 15 small-scale communities which host luxury private villas and expansive estates. The low-density population ensures guests enjoy the height of privacy and seclusion while immersing themselves in the abundance of the lush jungle setting.
Imanta is a boutique micro-resort which hosts three large villas, a range of private houses, and luxurious suites. The accommodations benefit from direct views of the ocean or the surrounding tropical jungle. It’s spectacular.
Guests of Imanta enjoy a relaxed lifestyle which seamlessly brings together expressive luxury finishes with the raw natural beauty of a private beachfront jungle reserve.
Shall we take a look around?
