In late 2021 Playa Viva, the founding member of Regenerative Travel,  introduced 6 new treehouses designed based on drone footage of the Mobula Manta Ray migration in front of the resort. They are suspended in mid-air by palm trees that were transplanted from the property's own coconut grove and now serve as living piers, providing a vegetative fabric to protect the dunes.

Guests can partake in daily beachside yoga classes, choose from a variety of massage services, and visit the resort's baby sea turtle sanctuary. Local operators lead excursions to explore the stunning natural landscape of the coast and local communities around the region, providing meaningful personal engagement with the people and the environment.

Chef Daniel and the culinary team source ingredients from the on-site farm. Some of these ingredients include coconuts, mangos, cashews, tamarind, tomatoes, lettuces, cactus and other earthly delights, such as cacao for the property's homemade chocolate.

WHERE:

Located 35 minutes south of Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa International (ZIH) Airport on a mile of pristine beach on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. Airport transportation is included in one's stay.
