Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit

Setting the bar for meetings and incentive travel on Mexico’s golden coast, the luxury all-inclusive Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit features a tranquil ambience and stunning views facing the Pacific. A AAA Five Diamond winner since 2007, it is also part of the prestigious Legend Collection by Preferred Hotels & Resorts. Each of the 267 remodeled, oversized suites offers L’Occitane bath essentials, a Nespresso coffee maker, a pillow menu, a private terrace, welcome bottles of mezcal and fine wine, and a premium minibar.

As is the Velas tradition, dining at Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit is an experience, with creative meals and top-shelf beverages in seven venues, from the revamped, oceanfront Azul to the poolside Selva del Mar to a series of specialty restaurants — including three AAA Four Diamond winners — that create a culinary tour of the world’s finest cuisines. Start with the new Mediterranean menu at the remodeled Lucca; move on to Piaf’s French cuisine and Frida’s authentic Mexican; and finish the journey at the resort’s newest addition, Sen Lin, which serves Asian fusion with inspired mixology. The luxury food experience also extends to 24-hour suite service and the unique Koi Bar, which hosts live music on select evenings.

Meetings onsite are perfectly designed and suitable for any goal, as the Convention Center houses 10 breakout rooms in 15,000 square feet of space, including the Grand Marissa Ballroom, which can host 400 dinner guests or divide into five smaller spaces. Idyllic outdoor venues include an oceanfront garden, gazebo terrace, and beachside area.

After their events, guests can relax at SE spa, recognized as one of the World’s Most Luxurious Spas by Forbes Travel Guide, with a seven-step Water Ceremony and indulgent, locally inspired treatments.
