Naviva is a property within the Four Seasons Punta Mita. It is the first Four Seasons all-inclusive tented camp in the Americas and only the second in the world, promising a rare and timeless experience for adults only.

Here’s the cool thing — what makes this experience even more unique, is Naviva leaning into an authentic, eco-friendly interaction with nature by offering “the real thing” and unapologetically going against the more classic Four Seasons resort model. They offer an all-encompassing approach to pricing to simplify every experience and eliminate distractions:

  • Ahead of arrival, each Four Seasons Naviva guest is matched with a personal guide, who creates a customized itinerary for your stay based on your preferences.
  • Upon arrival, we were personally greeted by Ronny, the Resort Manager.
  • While there’s a tray displaying their signature cocktails, you can have whatever you prefer. Rather than being given an ordinary welcome drink, we were asked about our drink of preference.
  • The “room keys” are waterproof wristbands you keep on throughout your stay. Gone are the days you lose your room key or have to reactivate plastic.
  • Left as a welcome amenity was a kit on the living room table for making our own sophisticated smoked & spicy cocktail. You could even scan a QR code to get exact instructions on the best way to make it – drawing inspiration from the rich history and culture of Mexico.
  • Extensive hiking trails – an opportunity to experience unfiltered, tranquil views that invite you to disconnect from the world around you, in the best way possible.
  • Mediation and sound healing activity at the yoga pavilion overlooking the ocean at sunset – the perfect way to refresh my mind and body before dinner.
  • House of Heat – a traditional temazcal designed specifically for Naviva with ceremonies that explore gratitude, devotion, and rebirth which tested my strength and vulnerability.
  • Chef Sofia took us on a behind-the-scenes tour of the kitchen and back of the house which included the fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices that are grown on the property – a true farm-to-table experience.

This property is for those who appreciate an intimate, quiet, personalized experience and prefer to feel like a guest on a private estate, on an exceptional intimate getaway, on the Pacific Ocean.

Ready to Start Planning?

While we always offer our Hotel-Only service complimentary to our clients, knowing how special this type of trip is, we highly recommend allowing us to take on the planning processHotel-Plus is for those trips in need of some additional support from our team, including, but not limited to dining reservations and airport transfers, while Tailored Luxury is an itinerary design process designed to be specifically tailored to your honeymoon goals.

With our Tailored Luxury service, your itinerary can be as detailed or as flexible as you want it to be. We can manage as little or as much of your trip as you like and will advise you when it makes more sense to book independent elements vs. one packaged option. This service always kicks things off with a phone call to get a sense of both the individual personalities and the couple’s personality. We’ll help you with:

  • Lodging – we’ll help you pick the best hotels for your tastes… or maybe a residential apartment, private yacht, or tented camp is more up your alley?
  • Planes, trains, and automobiles – we’ll help you get there and get around.
  • Activities and tours – we’ll match your interests with your destination, cooking, painting, shopping, hiking, dancing, you name it and we’ll find the best experience for you.
  • The final touches – we’ll help with everything from packing advice to shipping that bag so it is waiting for you on arrival!

With more couples moving away from classic beach vacations and instead leaning toward unique, personalized trips, using a travel advisor has never been more crucial for planning romantic getaways. We facilitate both sides of the planning process: getting to know and personalizing an itinerary to your personality and working to make sure everything runs smoothly once the trip finally happens. From narrowing down dream destinations, navigating budgets, and finding experiences personal to both of you, a travel advisor is your best resource for planning the honeymoon or anniversary of your dreams.
