The St. Regis Punta Mita Resort

This was the first time visiting Puerto Vallarta and we chose the St Regis Punta Mita because of my strong connection with Marriott Bonvoy. Got upgraded to a Jr Suite Casita near the main pool area with an outdoor shower and a cute garden. The room was very comfortable and had every imaginable amenity, except for a magnifying mirror in the bathroom and tea bags in the room. A hotel of this level should provide those things. Hope they will take my advise and install those mirrors in their 120 rooms. Another thing I prefer is chocolates at turndown service. They were leaving gummies which I don't think are appealing to older guests. We felt very well treated by all the staff who are trained to detect guests requirements. They put buckets with ice and water bottles on the beach and also had 3 types of complimentary suntan lotion available for the guests. That was a very nice touch. We didn't have to use our lotion. The Punta Mita development is grandiose and well designed. The only drawback are that all the beaches have too many rocks and it is uncomfortable to walk on them. I wish they would clean certain parts to make them more user friendly. We liked Sea Breeze beach which had a small clear area with less rocks. However, for the resort to be truly worth it, the beaches must be spectacular and unfortunately these ones are not. But we still had a memorable time and will definitely recommend to everyone.

Outstanding for families without feeling like a family resort. They made a big investment in the kids club and it’s beautiful. The new mita mary is stunning and the Marietta’s is very well done. Huge shallow area in the pool and super well laid out. If you try to find something wrong I’m sure you can find it, but, overall this is an excellent property with wonderful people and attitude, which makes for an exceptional value.

We just completed 4 night stay for our 50th anniversary. We loved this place! We took the hotel’s private car to and from the airport. Driver and service great. Rooms are really nice, spacious and comfortable. We had a “king bed Ocean view Casita). Huge bathroom plus an outdoor shower. Housekeeping regularly checked to refresh the room a few times each day. We had a good view to the 3 tiered pools and to the ocean. (There are also pools in other locations.). When at the pools the staff regularly came by with buckets full of ice and bottled water, and periodically came with iced fruit drinks or fruit popsicles. We ate at every restaurant in the hotel and didn’t have any meal that wasn’t really with great service at each restaurant. Special shout out to Felipe Sandoval and the other bartenders at AltaMira (the bar with restaurant in the lobby). He was really a very helpful and engaging person, and made great recommendations for cocktails and food. He was delightful as were his comrades (we didn’t not get everyone’s names). Also special were the breakfast wait staff at Las Marietas, and bartender and staff at Carolina. Massages at spa were very good spa is pricey (we added a private room and pool with champagne and snacks so of course that added to the price). All staff were extremely courteous, if you need directions whomever you asked stopped what he/she was doing and took you wherever you were going. (i.e, instead of just trying to tell you how to go.). And at the restaurants and bars they always knew we were here for our anniversary and congratulated us. Nice touch. We certainly plan to return. This is a wonderful place.

Be aware of St Regis taxi prices. Double that of outside cab service. 3 times that of UBER. 10 dollars to drive into Putna de Mita. Seems like a free shuttle could be offered. Golf carts are provided at a very high price. Other than that, very nice stay.

We enjoyed every part of our stay, from the pristine white sand beach, the exquisite resort, to the incredible hospitality at St Regis Punta Mita! Our concierge and housekeeping made our stay very special and festive for my friend's bday celebration. The breakfast buffet was worth it, and we were cheerfully greeted each morning by Manager Manuel, who made sure we were enjoying our meal. The best drinks we had were at Altamira, and the way they presented the pastor tacos is so special! Must try. Juan, Alfredo, and Armando at Altamira made it really fun and memorable for us. I highly recommend a celebration dinner at Mita Mary's, it was perfect. Chef Arsenio and Team (Irina, Jaqueline, Samuel, Claudio and Manager Hayari) gave us a fine dining experience, with our feet in the sand. Amazing. We hope to come back!
