AREA EXPLORATIONS
Really, there was no need to leave the resort.
But, we did venture out to the small fishing
village of Sayulita, known as a village of love.
The streets are lined with little shops spilling
out with artisan crafts, interspersed with
outdoor restaurants specializing in tacos and
beer, and dappled with hearts and signs that
say “Amor.”After strolling around for a few hours, we
took a car to Imanta Resort in Punta de Mita,
which you absolutely cannot miss. This place
defines personalized, individualized service
in a completely private and comfortably
upscale setting. After a 10-minute drive on
a jungle road, we were greeted by staff and
escorted to the observation deck where we
had 360° views of the jungle and ocean, plus
a private bartender to make fresh cocktails
from local fruits plucked that morning.
Dinner was an equally unparalleled and
private experience. Another Imanta must:
the spa. The completely outdoor spa has just
three treatment “rooms,” with palm fronds
and plants separating each space. You are
massaged, you shower, you even use the
bathroom without a roof over your head. It
sounds rustic, but it redefines luxury.Communication is Key!
Communicate! Before planning for any trip,
it’s essential to have a conversation about the
purpose of your getaway in order to align your
hopes and expectations. Set a time to talk,
during which you both can be focused and
listen to each other’s needs and wants. Think
through and have clarity around the kind of
trip you are craving. If your partner has a dif-
ferent perspective, see how you can merge your
needs so you can both come away feeling like
you are taking your perfect trip.
Ask yourself some of the following
questions:
What are your criteria for a destination?
What variety of activities do you want to do?
Do you want to meet up with any friends or
family?
Do you want to have a schedule or play it
day by day?
If you want the flow to be more relaxed, are
there specific activities that will require
reservations and some planning—like special
meals or spa treatments?
