Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa is situated on a wide stretch of beach in Vallarta, Mexico.

One of Vallarta’s most popular hotels, Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa is situated on a wide stretch of beach in the vibrant marina district. Boasting Vallarta’s largest infinity pool with an abundance of lounges and umbrellas to soak up the sun and relax poolside with a margarita and their renowned crevice.

The wide sandy beach makes this property a favorite for weddings and celebrations while the sun sets and candles glow against the evening sky.

Mexico Spa Guide: The Best Spas in Riviera Maya

Ohtli Spa is considered one of the finest in the city, and for good reason. The zen ambiance is augmented by onyx wall accents and relaxing lounge space with floor-to-ceiling-windows, soft candlelight, and inviting lounge beds. Fruit, nuts, and an assortment of teas, and infused water are available in the lounge. We suggest a visit to the resort’s bi-level NOSH for light bites, cocktails, and an amazing view. If you’re feeling additional hunger pangs, stop by Las Casitas for a light or hearty lunch prepared with fresh local ingredients and panoramic sea vistas.

The spa is open to hotel guests and visitors, and all are welcome to take advantage of the pool and beach. They also offer seasonal spa treatments, such as the Teocalli Massage. Recharge your energy and awaken your senses with a healing massage incorporating a purifying ritual with rosemary and the aroma of copal, Mexican incense par excellence.

We spoke with Spa Manager Selene Rosas to learn more about the spa’s amenities, treatments to try, and more.
