Press Release
Rosewood Hotels & Resorts® has been appointed by RLH Properties, a company created by BK Partners, to manage Rosewood Mandarina which will open in 2024 as Rosewood’s fourth property in Mexico. Located on the country’s west coast, the resort will be situated in the breathtaking region of Riviera Nayarit. Rich with a culture that is as colorful as the exotic flora, the Nayarit region is renowned for its diverse landscape with lagoons, rivers, volcanoes, almost 200 miles of beach along the Pacific Ocean, abundant vegetation, and mountains to the west.
Rosewood Mandarina will offer 140 guestrooms, suites and villas with panoramic views across the mountains, beach and ocean. Guests will be able to choose from three restaurants and bars including a specialty restaurant and sunset bar as well as more informal options such as a pool grill and beach bar. The resort will offer event space, three pools, a fitness center, and an Asaya Spa with 10 treatment rooms. The beachfront property will draw inspiration from the local, pre-historic Huichole and Cora cultures, combining modern luxury and comfort with the riches of its extraordinary setting.
With a focus on the element of “water,” the resort will provide visitors with exclusive access to three diverse environments: the beach, The Flatlands, and the mountains, each offering unique activities. From fishing off the ocean coast, to learning about the agricultural foundation of the region, or taking one of many scenic hikes up the mountainside, the diverse landscape will provide the perfect backdrop for travelers to connect with nature.
“Rosewood is excited to expand our brand further into Mexico, a leading destination for luxury travelers today,” says Sonia Cheng, chief executive officer of Rosewood Hotel Group. “With all the natural beauty and adventure that Riviera Nayarit has to offer, Mandarina will effortlessly embody the brand’s A Sense of Place philosophy.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Rosewood on this exciting project, which is sure to become one of the best resorts in Mexico,” says Allen Sanginés-Krause, chairman of RLH Properties’ Board.
Rosewood Mandarina will join a robust regional network of distinctive Rosewood properties in Mexico, including Rosewood Mayakoba, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende, and Las Ventanas al Paraíso, A Rosewood Resort. Rosewood Mandarina will also be joined by Rosewood Mexico City, slated to open later in 2024.
