Why luxury villa rental on the Punta Mita peninsular is the best way to enjoy Mexico in style

If you’re looking for a dream destination in which to relax and unwind away from the throng of Mexico’s busiest resorts, then Punta Mita promises a truly unforgettable experience.

If you’re dreaming of long, lazy days in the sunshine and a luxurious break from the stresses and strains of modern life, then Mexico, with its vibrant culture, decadent cuisine and breath-taking beaches is the obvious choice. But while there’s no denying that the lavish five-star resorts of the Riviera Maya, on the Caribbean Coast, hold plenty of appeal, if you’re looking for privacy and exclusivity then you’re looking on the wrong coast, and at the wrong type of accommodation.

Over on the Pacific Coast, just ten miles north of the popular resort town of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, you’ll find the secluded 1,500-acre resort and residential community of Punta Mita, which sits on a spear-shaped peninsula flanked on three sides by some of the most breath-taking white sand beaches, azure waters and verdant tropical flora you will have ever seen.

And, as well as being home to some impressive amenities including two Jack Nicklaus signature golf courses and opulent resorts including the Four Seasons Punta Mita and the St. Regis Punta Mita, you’ll also find some spectacular luxury properties for rental, including the fully staffed villas offered up by Villa Experience.

Nestled in pretty Punta Mita, along the north shore of picturesque Banderas Bay – as well as elsewhere along the entire Riviera Nayarit – Villa Experience’s portfolio of elegant villa rentals are fast becoming the go-to choice for affluent travellers looking for an opulent and exclusive base from which to enjoy a Mexican holiday – or extended break – in the sun.

With awe-inspiring ocean views, world-class amenities and exceptional value for money – as well as high-level safety and security – all that’s left for you to do is relax and enjoy. And each spectacular Punta Mita villa rental comes fully equipped with all you could possibly need to enjoy a relaxing stay, including a chef or cook service, butler, housekeeper and on-site concierge, all ensuring you’ll be left wanting for nothing.

What is there to do in Punta Mita?

There’s no shortage of things to do in Punta Mita – perhaps the most obvious of which is to enjoy the truly awe-inspiring local beaches.

 If you’re visiting with family, then head to Anclote Beach which, with its gentle surf and soft white sand, is perfect for swimming and paddling. The surf schools of Playa Punta de Mita are a great place for thrill-seekers to learn the ropes, while seasoned pros can make their way to La Lancha to take on some slightly more challenging waves. Each beach is lined with sophisticated beach restaurants and clubs for relaxing with a cocktail in hand, too – so if you’re more about languishing on the sand and catching some rays, then you’ll be well catered to.

Snorkelling in Banderas Bay is a must for water babies, and for diving enthusiasts, there are some amazing sites to explore including the Princesa Shipwreck near Mismaloya beach and Devil’s Canyon, which can be found at the National Reserve of Los Arcos. If you’re lucky, then you’ll spot everything from turtles and crabs to octopus, manta rays and dolphins amidst the waves and the colourful coral formations and fish milling around deeper down.

Add to that the two sophisticated golf courses in Punta Mita and the host of watersports, including paddle boarding and kayaking, on offer here, and there’s plenty to keep people of all ages entertained – and of course, your concierge will be more than happy to arrange day trips for you if you’re keen to visit somewhere further afield.
