The St. Regis Punta Mita Resort

I’ve always been captivated by the serene beauty of Punta de Mita, a peninsula steeped in both luxury and natural wonder. Nestled along this stunning coastline are a few resorts that truly capture the essence of this paradise, but none quite like the St. Regis Punta Mita. While there are many resorts that promise luxury, the sweeping, iconic views here set it apart—it’s a place where every glance feels like a postcard. When I visit a resort, two things I always look for are exclusivity and exceptional service. At the St. Regis, even though families, couples, and friends gather here, there’s something about the way the resort is spread across its expansive 22 acres that makes you feel as if you’re in your own private world. It’s a delicate balance they’ve mastered, and the result is nothing short of magical. The attentive staff was one of the highlights of my stay. Having a dedicated butler service was such a treat—I could simply send a text, and within minutes, my every need was taken care of. It added a layer of personal attention that made me feel completely at ease. Dining at the resort was a standout experience. With two bars and four restaurants, including the Sakana Bar and the Altamira at St. Regis Bar, there’s plenty to explore. However, Carolina and Marietas were my personal favorites. Carolina offers a more formal, intimate fine dining experience, perfect for a special evening. Marietas, on the other hand, is a casual spot by the beach—ideal for relaxing in resort wear while you take in the sunset with a delicious meal. As someone with a discerning palate, I was pleasantly surprised by how exceptional the food was across the board. Each dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and I can confidently say I didn’t encounter a single disappointment, which says a lot! One of my favorite moments was lounging in a cabana during the early afternoon. There’s something about hearing the ocean breeze, the birds, and the gentle lapping of the waves that creates an almost meditative experience. It’s hard not to feel completely at peace. For those looking for activities, the resort offers a golf club, various aquatic adventures, and even a sunset cruise—all of which can be arranged by the concierge. These were some of the highlights for me, but there’s plenty more to explore. My room was a sanctuary in itself—spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed. I especially loved the combination of the indoor and outdoor bathing options, with a terrace shower surrounded by greenery. It was such a unique touch that I found myself reluctant to leave the room! In the end, what truly sets St. Regis Punta Mita apart is its unwavering commitment to exclusivity, service, and the guest experience. From the moment you arrive, you can feel the thoughtfulness and care that goes into every detail. They’ve mastered the art of hospitality, ensuring that your time here is not only memorable but transformative. If you’re searching for a resort that offers the ultimate

BEWARE. This property overcharged me by nearly $1500. I booked and was confirmed with one rate but when I got to the hotel, they changed it on me with no previous warning. I never would have booked this hotel at that price. I was completely trapped in a foreign country by myself and am now in financial distress. What was supposed to be a special treat to de-stress after a death in the family, has turned into a huge stress and now has put my immediate future jeopardy. They even sent me a receipt for the proper amount and then had me sign a different receipt in pesos, telling me it was the same. I was scared at this point, signed it, and when i got to the airport, they sent a second receipt for another much larger amount. I was lied to, tricked, and the whole experience a complete nightmare. I wonder how many others they have tricked with this scam. They should be ashamed of themselves.

We haven’t been since the remodel, rooms were upgraded spectacularly a new St Regis bar was added as well as many new faces. I must take a moment to recognize the guys at the bar: Alfredo (inquisitive over the top hospitable with an insatiable desire to learn and find the most obscure cocktail ingredient so much fun!!!!!!), Johnny and I believe Juan the bartender were great as well. We had cocktails all 5 nights which was a highlight of the trip. Isaac at the front entry I can’t say enough genuine caring and so much fun to chat with he is beyond the gold standard. The guys at the adult pool were all great David Mercado, the other David, Juan and Ellias all exceptional and all new faces for us (we’ve been to this property approximately 12 times). The hotel never fails to disappoint however I must mention as a Titanium elite and lifetime Platinum we received a room without a view buried behind vegetation of the waterfront villas (first time ever) in a completely empty hotel which was pretty lame (we did use points)…... I’ve never asked for a better room in my life other than this trip and was declined, to the above folks that made our trip so special thank you!!!!!!!!

My wife and I spent six days on property. Received a complimentary room upgrade and early check in. Cannot say enough about the property, amenities and, most of all, staff. So friendly and accommodating. 24 hour butler service looks after any special ask. Beach, pools, and golf were all spectacular. The outdoor shower in our junior suite was so nice! Hope to return for more sun, fun and relaxation next year

The St. Regis Punta Mita delivered on service and atmosphere. My wife and I spent a short July vacation in a Junior Suite that included breakfast and a daily resort credit. Although it was technically rainy season, most showers were limited to late at night and clear to partly cloudy skies during the day. From arrival to departure, the service was truly top-notch. Every member of the staff, from management to beach attendants, worked to ensure our stay was enjoyable. Pool and beachside service struck the perfect balance. Staff checked in often enough to keep us pampered, but never too often to interrupt the peaceful vibe. Buckets of cold water, towels, loungers, and umbrellas were always ready before we had to ask. The poolside food, including ceviche, sushi, and burgers, was fresh and easily customized to our preferences. Our Junior Suite was slightly dated, but it was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the outdoor shower. It had a rustic feel that added charm and gave the room a more authentic, regional touch. Our spa experience was also excellent. The massages were skillfully done, and while the open-air spa was a little warm during our visit, I imagine it is more comfortable during cooler months. Breakfast each morning was a highlight. The buffet was varied and well-prepared, and the made-to-order items were equally good. The egg and chorizo tacos on fresh corn tortillas were easily the best thing I ate during our stay. The butler service deserves a special mention. Our butlers were always enthusiastic, helpful, and readily available. Whether arranging spa services or helping with dinner plans, they made our short stay feel effortless. Dinner at the resort restaurants was good but not quite excellent. Most dishes were fresh and well-prepared, but there were a few misses. The pizza at Seabreeze was soggy, the octopus in the tacos at Marietas needed more time on the grill, and the crab appetizer at Mita Mary was overwhelmed by mayo. That said, there were some real highlights. The Al Pastor tacos at Marietas and the grilled fish at Mita Mary were both outstanding. One area that could use improvement is the activity planning. It was difficult to understand what was included on-site, what was located elsewhere on the property, and how to book each option. I believe our butler or the concierge could have helped with that, but we were not always sure what questions to ask. Overall, the St. Regis Punta Mita is a refined and welcoming resort. The service, food, and relaxed luxury made for a memorable few days. With some clearer guidance around activities and a bit more consistency in the dining experience, one would have a tough time finding any flaws.

Beautiful hotel with gorgeous, green landscaping and an expansive property. Welcoming and professional staff with a warm Hola on every encounter from the landscapers to the front desk. Given the size of the property it never felt crowded. The rooms were large with large bathrooms and outdoor shower plunge. The only drawback was on Monday’s and Tuesdays one of the restaurants was closed and the other fine dining restaurant was temporarily closed for a restart of their menu. This left only two options for dinner on property. Compared to the Four Seasons which we visited for dinner, the St. Regis wins hands down for the beauty of the property.
