New Rosewood Mandarina, Riviera Nayarit to Open in Mexico

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts recently announced plans to open their fifth luxury resort in Mexico. With an expected 2019 opening, Rosewood Mandarinas will be part of the exclusive La Mandarina development in Riviera Nayarit (where One&Only has also recently broke ground), just 30 minutes from the Puerto Vallarta airport.

Rich with a culture that is as colorful as the exotic flora, the Nayarit region is renowned for its diverse landscape with lagoons, rivers, volcanoes, almost 200 miles of beach along the Pacific Ocean, abundant vegetation, and mountains to the west. Sonia Cheng, CEO of Rosewood Hotel Group, shared her enthusiasm, “With all the natural beauty and adventure that Riviera Nayarit has to offer, Mandarina will effortlessly embody the brand’s A Sense of Place philosophy.”

The beachfront property will draw inspiration from the local, pre-historic Huichole and Cora cultures, combining modern luxury and comfort with the riches of its extraordinary setting.With a focus on the element of “water,” the region will provide visitors with exclusive access to three diverse environments: the beach, the lowlands and the highlands, each offering unique activities. From fishing in the winding lagoons or off the ocean coast, to learning about the agricultural foundation of the region, or taking one of many scenic hikes up the mountainside, the diverse landscape will provide a perfect backdrop for travelers to connect with nature.

Rosewood Mandarina in Riviera Nayarit will feature:

• 130 guestrooms, suites and villas with panoramic views across the mountains, beach and ocean
• three restaurants and bars including a specialty restaurant and sunset bar
• three pools
• fitness center
• spa with 10 treatment rooms
• event space

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts continues to express their excitement in expanding the brand and portfolio further into Mexico, which they consider a leading destination for luxury travelers. Rosewood Mandarina will be Mexico’s fifth Rosewood property, joining Rosewood Mayakoba, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende, Las Ventanas al Paraíso, and Rosewood Puebla, which is slated to open in Spring 2017.
