One&Only Mandarina: Mexico for the Soul

Tourists visit. Travelers explore. 

One&Only Mandarina is for travelers. People who are keen to explore one of Mexico's most pristine coastal rainforests, while exploring a deeper sense of self.  

One of the newest properties in One&Only’s collection of ultra-luxury experiences, One&Only Mandarina is located on the Riviera Nayarit, just an hour away from Puerto Vallarta. You will be hard-pressed to find a resort that is as mindfully designed as this one, or as effectively designed for mindfulness. Its 105 stand-alone treehouses and clifftop villas coexist with the surrounding rainforest, beaches, mountains, flatlands, and estuaries that host them in a manner that take living in nature to a higher level. 

Each space is designed to place guests at the threshold between indoor and out, treetops and sky, and forest and ocean. Treehouses and clifftop villas are finished in local woods, lava rock, regional crafts, and luxury furnishings. Their private plunge pool, individual dining room and unique vistas make each treehouse and villa a personalized sanctuary where guests will experience connection with self and each other. 

One&Only Mandarina opens to a range of experiences in and with the natural landscape. Hike to La Abuela, a 500-year-old tree to learn about her spiritual teachings and that of the entire rainforest. Participate in the Mandarina Ancient Wonders pushing your endurance through rainforest trails on a guided bike tour. Balance your energy in a ceremony invoking the four elements. Indulge in the healing experience of spa treatments that draw on nature and history to restore and reinvigorate. 

And then enjoy 'sea-to-table' fare at Jetty Beach Club followed by a stroll on the white sand beach. Or later in the day tip back a glass of mezcal ahead of the culinary mastery of Enrique Olvera at Carao, sitting back to take in the moonlight reflecting on the explorations of the day.

Common to every experience you choose to have at One&Only Mandarina is a spirit of hospitality delivered by a family of hosts who host from the soul. Your personal butler will personalize your experience of the resort and with the environment because their connection to both runs very deeply. Everyone behind your One&Only experience is a fellow traveler. 

One&Only Mandarina is a perfect counterpoint to a boisterous weekend in Puerto Vallarta or Punta Mita. And it is an ideal getaway from everywhere anytime. Because traveling to explore is a way of being.
