LOCATION & PROPERTY
Discover Mexico’s Pacific Treasure
Nestled just 45 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta International Airport, Hacienda Antigua sits at the heart of Mexico’s best-kept secret: the Riviera Nayarit. Known as “Mexico’s Pacific Treasure,” this pristine region stretches over 100 miles of coastline, from Nuevo Vallarta to the colonial port of San Blas. Relatively untouched by major development, it remains a sanctuary of natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and charming, unspoiled beachside communities.
Indulge in a sensory experience at this distinctive, handcrafted boutique home that exudes "barefoot elegance" while offering all modern conveniences. The property features eight private suites, a gourmet commercial kitchen, an authentic Mexican cantina, and a 40-foot heated pool accented with traditional Talavera tile. Rustic luxury is redefined here with antique furnishings, hand-carved stone décor, bronze accents, and sparkling chandeliers, all designed to provide a retreat into serenity. This property is a true slice of paradise, set away from the bustle of everyday life, yet close enough to Mexico's untouched beauty.
The retreat offers a gateway to Wixárika cultural traditions, led by Santos Hernandez, a locally renowned spiritual guide and artist. Coming from a long line of Wixárika thread artists, Santos has been guiding sacred ceremonies for over 30 years. His mission is to preserve the Wixarika culture by educating the public and serving as a spiritual guide, offering insight into the incredible wisdom of this indigenous community.
