Omni Pontoque Resort at Punta de Mita

Omni Pontoque Resort at Punta de Mita is the first luxury resort in Mexico for Omni Hotels and Resorts, the Dallas-based hotel company, and its most significant international move to date. The resort occupies 50 oceanfront acres on Mexico's Riviera Nayarit, set between the Sierra Madre foothills and the Pacific on a cliff-backed stretch of Banderas Bay roughly 20 miles north of Puerto Vallarta International Airport. The property holds 246 keys: 202 guest rooms, 28 junior suites, 14 suites with private plunge pools, and two four-bedroom residential-style villas set along the cliffs. Guests have private access to a 1,250-foot white-sand beach, five resort pools, and an oceanfront fitness center. The spa runs to 11,105 square feet, with 14 treatment rooms distributed across 12 standalone buildings. Dining is built around three ocean-view restaurants: Tatei, serving seafood and coastal fare on the beachfront; Zuravé, pairing regional dishes with modern technique; and Esmeralda, an all-day room built on global flavors and local ingredients. A coffee, ice cream and market venue called Periiku and a pool bar and grill round out the food and beverage program. The resort also carries 27,295 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space, anchored by the 5,869-square-foot Parota Ballroom, which opens onto the 6,475-square-foot Papelillo Event Lawn with capacity for up to 750 guests. HKS Architects led the architecture, with interiors by Farouki Farouki, landscape by Waldrop and Nichols Studio, signage and wayfinding by RSM Design, and construction management by The Beck Group. Omni broke ground on the resort in September 2024.
