Rosewood Hotels & Resorts is set to manage Rosewood Mandarina, with the property set to open in 2019.

It will be the first Rosewood hotel in Mexico.

Located on the west coast of Mexico just 30 minutes’ drive from the Puerto Vallarta International Airport, the resort will be situated in the breath-taking region of Riviera Nayarit.

Rich with a culture that is as colourful 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.

Rosewood Mandarina will offer 130 guestrooms, suites and villas with panoramic views across the mountains, beach and ocean.

Guests will be able to choose from three restaurants and bars including a speciality restaurant and sunset bar as well as more informal options such as a pool grill and beach bar.

The resort will offer three pools, fitness centre and spa with ten treatment rooms in addition to event space.

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.

“Rosewood is excited to expand our brand further into Mexico, a leading destination for luxury travellers today,” said Sonia Cheng, chief executive officer of Rosewood Hotel Group.

“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.”

Rosewood Mandarina will join a regional network of distinctive Rosewood properties in Mexico and Central America, including Rosewood Mayakoba, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende, Las Ventanas al Paraíso, A Rosewood Resort, and Rosewood Puebla, which is slated to open in 2017.
