The Why

Oceanfront accommodations – for a peaceful wake up and easy access to the beach.
A dining extravaganza – the resort is set to house an exclusive French restaurant alongside eight other options, including numerous a la carte and buffet restaurants.
Tequila tasting – a range of culinary experiences are offered including wine and tequila tasting, cooking classes and kitchen tours.
Reliable weather – stable temperatures year-round, rarely dipping below 25 degrees Centigrade.
Extravagant suites – we’re talking Nespresso machines, private plunge pools & hot tubs, 49-inch TV and king-sized beds.
Sustainably-minded – as an important turtle nesting area, the resort will take precautions during the nesting season, including reducing light and noise pollution to protect these rare creatures.
Wedding packages offered – just make sure you’ve had no more than three tequilas before you sign up.
No kids – need I say more? You can, however, bring a dog. Nice to see they have their priorities in order.
