About the Villas

Seeking a well-equipped beach house for an unforgettable family trip? How about a secluded romantic retreat for a honeymoon

or anniversary, or any other occasion to spend some quality time with that special someone? Punta Mita villas and vacation

rentals offer so many options that a hotel or resort suite doesn’t, including greater space and privacy and the availability of a

personal chef or in-villa masseuse if you so desire.

believable access to plush white sands.

Where is Punta Mita and Why Visit?

Punta Mita (Mita Point), also known as Punta de Mita, forms the exquisite northern gate of Banderas Bay, is often described

as the place where you arrive as a guest, leave as a friend, and return as family. It’s located on mainland Mexico’s tropical

Pacific seaboard whose southern boundary is marked by Cabo (Cape) Corrientes. The 1,500-acre arrowhead privately owned

peninsula of Punta Mita is just a short drive north from the popular resort hub of Puerto Vallarta, which lies at about the heart

of the Bahía de Banderas coast.

Part of the Riviera Nayarit — an increasingly sought-after destination for luxury travel — Punta Mita is a master-planned gated

enclave established to cater to the world’s most affluent travelers.

Punta Mita’s seductions are deeply known to an exclusive crowd, and with WIMCO's villas, vacation rentals, and suites in 5-

star hotels and luxury resorts, they’re yours to savor.

When is the Best Time to Visit?Thanks to calendar-wide tropic temperatures in the 70s and 80s, there’s really no bad time to visit Punta Mita. It can certainly

be a bit on the steamy side during the summer, but the ocean influence does moderate that sultriness somewhat. Summer also

marks the local wet season, while roughly November through May defines the dry stretch. Here’s our list of some things to do:

SURFINg

Wave riders have long known about such sought-out waves as La Lancha, Punta

Burros, El Faro, El Anclote, Paraiso, Palmitas, and — just about at the very tip

of the Punta de Mita península — Bahía. From beginner to expert, there’s a little

something for everybody, just about anytime of year.

SPORT FISHINg

Showstopper species commonly landed here include sailfish, blue marlin, striped marlin, and those huge black marlin — plus

yellowfin tuna, wahoo, dorado, jack crevalle, Spanish mackerel, bonita, and red snapper.

BEACH-gOINg

The nearly 10-mile-long coastline of Punta Mita proper includes plenty of post-

card-perfect sands, and more await within easy reach in other parts of the Riv-

iera Nayarit and around Puerto Vallarta. Popular local beaches include Anclote,

Bucerias, and Punta Mita Beach, plus the legendary Hidden Beach of the Islas

Marietas National Park archipelago.

ECO-TOURISM

You can catch eco boat tours in both Puerto Vallarta and Punta Mita. You’ll also

find outstanding snorkeling and SCUBA diving sites, including Islas Marietas

National Park, El Morro (known for its caves and reef walls), and Los Anegados.

On land there’s hiking, horseback riding, and other excursions into the biodi-

verse heights of the Sierra Madre Occidental. Don’t miss the mangrove won-

derland of the El Cora Crocodile Sanctuary.

gOLFINg

Not one, but two Jack Nicklaus-designed golf courses await you on the Punta Mita peninsula. They include Pacifico, which

has seven holes overlooking the Pacific and harbors the celebrated “Tail of the Whale” green, as well as Bahía, with five

ocean-view holes and an equally superb design.
