Where Sleep Tourism Meets the Art of All-Inclusive Hospitality

In luxury travel, true indulgence often extends beyond cuisine, design, or service. Increasingly, it is measured by something far more elusive: restorative sleep. Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, the AAA Five Diamond resort on Mexico’s Pacific coast, has introduced a new Sleep Suite: Rest & Renewal experience, elevating its all-inclusive offering with a focus on nightly rejuvenation.

Sleep Tourism Redefined

The Riviera Nayarit property is no stranger to pioneering wellness concepts, and its new Sleep Suite option taps into the surging global interest in sleep tourism. Guests who opt into the program will find that any suite at the resort can be transformed into a haven for restorative rest. The experience blends curated aromatherapy, guided rituals, and thoughtful nightly touches that encourage a deeper connection to rest.

The Sleep Suite add-on begins before arrival, with a personalized consultation led by a dedicated sleep concierge. Amenities are selected to suit each guest’s preferences, creating an atmosphere of comfort and calm. A standout detail is the Sleep Mask Bar, where guests can choose from cooling silk, plush velvet, or breathable cotton masks, paired with soothing scents such as lavender, chamomile, or eucalyptus. Complementing this is an extensive pillow menu, including lavender-infused memory foam and cooling gel options—ensuring that even the foundation of sleep is tailored to the individual.

Nightly Rituals with Intention

The hallmark of the program is its Turn-Down with Intention service. Upon returning to their suite, guests are greeted with small, considered rituals designed to ease the transition into rest. Depending on the evening, this might mean bedside affirmation cards or journal prompts, herbal teas with local honey, cooling eye pads, or instrumental soundscapes. Each detail is designed to transform a routine turn-down into a moment of mindfulness.

To complement the nightly experience, suites also feature wellness-enhancing touches such as weighted blankets, sunrise lamps with soundscape settings, and calming bath rituals with fragrant bath bombs. Together, these create an environment where sleep is not an afterthought, but an integral part of the luxury experience.

Guided Wind-Down Rituals

During the day, guests can engage in one-on-one guided wind-down sessions led by the resort’s spa therapists. These include restorative breathing exercises, stretching techniques, and optional sound healing with crystal bowls. Designed to be practiced independently at night, these techniques offer tools that guests can continue to use well beyond their stay.

To mark the close of the experience, each guest departs with a personalized note and monogrammed sleep mask, allowing a piece of the journey to be carried home.

The Sleep Suite: Rest & Renewal experience is available as an add-on starting at $600 USD per stay for two adults, with a three-night minimum. Resort rates begin at $548 per adult, per night, inclusive of à la carte dining across six gourmet restaurants, premium beverages, 24-hour in-suite service, a three-tier infinity pool, fitness center, and extensive recreational offerings. For those seeking a more comprehensive program, the resort also offers a Sleep & Retreat Package, which includes specialized treatments such as Shirodhara therapy and hydrotherapy circuits at the Forbes Five-Star-rated SE Spa.
