Located off the beaten path on a secluded beach, Casa de Mita in the tony Punta Mita area of Riviera Nayarit is a true hideaway. The all-inclusive rustic boutique hotel is intimate with just eight massive guest rooms, and the swim-up bar serves as a tropical sanctuary. With only 16 guests max, it’s quiet and serene, and it feels even more luxurious with the refreshing salt-water pool. The bartender serves up thirst-quenching margaritas (made from a selection of hand-picked tequilas), a well-curated cocktail menu and more (room rates start at $625 a night and are all inclusive; casademita.com).
