Cliffside Jungle Luxury on Mexico’s Untamed Pacific - One&Only Mandarina

Hidden between the lush rainforests and dramatic Pacific cliffs of Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit lies a resort that feels entirely apart from the world—One&Only Mandarina. Perched above the Pacific Ocean and wrapped in emerald jungle, this architectural marvel doesn’t just offer privacy—it invites you to merge with nature without sacrificing even an ounce of luxury.

🌿 A Resort Built Around the Trees, Not Through Them

What sets Mandarina apart is its deep respect for the landscape. The villas—designed by Rick Joy and Studio Caban—float above the canopy or hug the dramatic cliffside. Every structure feels intentionally placed, offering complete seclusion, panoramic jungle-meets-ocean views, and floor-to-ceiling glass that dissolves the boundary between indoors and out.

You’ll wake to the sound of howler monkeys, sip coffee beside ancient trees, and watch the sunset from your private plunge pool with only birds and breeze as company.

🛌 Stay Among the Treetops or By the Sand

  • Treehouses: Suspended above the forest floor, these sleek wooden sanctuaries offer wraparound terraces, outdoor showers, and deep soaking tubs with a view.

  • Cliff Villas: Perched along the ridgeline, these ocean-facing villas boast larger pools and sweeping views of the Pacific.

  • Grand Villas: Perfect for families or multi-gen stays, with full living and dining spaces, larger infinity pools, and the signature Mandarina indoor-outdoor flow.

All accommodations include a dedicated butler, 24-hour in-villa dining, and immersive privacy.

🍽️ Dining with a Sense of Place

Dining at One&Only Mandarina isn’t just about cuisine—it’s about connection to the land and sea. Ingredients are sourced from the resort’s own garden, local fishers, and surrounding farms.

  • Carao: The signature restaurant by Chef Enrique Olvera (of Pujol fame), where fine Mexican cuisine meets dramatic ocean views.

  • Alma: A more relaxed, garden-to-table restaurant open all day, with Mediterranean-Mexican fusion dishes and an organic sensibility.

  • Jetty Beach Club: Barefoot dining at its finest—grilled fish, ceviches, and chilled rosé just steps from the surf.

  • In-Villa Dining: For those magical nights when you want to dine under the stars on your private terrace, with your toes in your own pool.

Weekly chef tastings, mezcal mixology sessions, and sunset cocktails round out the culinary program.

🌊 Adventure, Wellness & Wonder

Whether you’re looking to connect or disconnect, Mandarina’s curated experiences offer both stillness and thrill:

  • Private horseback rides through mango groves and jungle trails at the world-class Mandarina Polo & Equestrian Club.

  • ATV and hiking excursions to hidden waterfalls and mountaintop views.

  • Whale watching and boat trips from the resort’s own jetty (seasonal from December to March).

  • Temazcal ceremony, yoga, or a treatment at the One&Only Spa nestled into a volcanic rock ravine.

  • Wellness sessions with visiting practitioners and herbalists.

Families are beautifully catered for as well, with KidsOnly offering immersive nature-based activities and storytelling rooted in local folklore.

🐢 A Living Reserve

Beyond luxury, One&Only Mandarina lives within a living ecosystem. Conservation of sea turtles, reforestation efforts, and architectural design that preserves the existing jungle all make this place feel purposeful. You’re not simply visiting nature—you’re a respectful guest in its home.

✨ Who It’s Perfect For

  • Couples seeking natural romance and architectural serenity

  • Families wanting multigenerational bonding with space and adventure

  • Design lovers and nature seekers who crave untouched luxury

Just 1 hour north of Puerto Vallarta International Airport, Mandarina is both accessible and completely removed from the buzz.
