Inspired Brunch Four Seasons Punta Mita

When you visit for a few days, spend some time with the chef in a class – imagine your global flair at your next brunch – salsa music in the background, pungent sliced limes, small bowls of coarse sea salt, frosty Margaritas and Chef Jorge González’ spicy aromatic Chilaquiles. Todo Bien!

International Culinary adventures abound at the Four Seasons – every morning, catch of the day is delivered by local fisherman, look for them on the beach in front of Bahia Restaurant, where grilling is perfected. Catch & Cook experience, explore Bahia de Banderas by private boat, catch your dinner and prepare it with the chef for your dinner. Head to the kitchen for an interactive class celebrating the flavors, methods and tools of pre-Hispanic cooking. Create a traditional meal outdoors in the Iku Garden using indigenous ingredients and equipment inspired by ancient cultures, including an underground oven and a molcajete.

Buenos Dias! Breakfast Meeting Four Seasons Punta Mita – Private Villa

Mexican cooking is more than chips and guacamole, although an afternoon of boogie boarding and sand lounging is certainly enriched by a platter of these tasty salty snacks accompanied by a frosty pitcher of Margaritas!

During my recent week at Four Seasons Punta Mita, a breakfast meeting included executive Chef Jorge González, recently appointed to oversee their newest restaurant Dos Catrinas. What better way to enjoy a work meeting in a private villa overlooking the Pacific? Dos Catrinas restaurant will marry Mexico’s past and future with a new culturally rich dining experience set in a modern, reimagined space. Designed by Colombian architect Saul Sasson, Dos Catrinas will bring together Mexico’s traditional culture, urban lifestyle and history in a two-story space with ocean views.

Si Si Chilaquiles! Four Seasons Punta Mita

Chef Jorge, had of course, orchestrated our magnificent breakfast – we begged for the Chilaquiles recipe – true to Four Seasons exceptional service, the recipe was delivered to my Presidential Suite before I returned! We loved chatting about food and culture with Jorge, do follow him on Instagram- his posts are mouthwatering! Jorge González (@jorgehglez)

Four Seasons Punta Mita *****

The Five Star Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita is my choice and the choice of many of my clients. I am devoted to this little oasis of calm relaxation on a sun-splashed stretch of Mexico’s Banderas Bay coastline. Sink your toes into the white-sand beach or frolic in the glittering aquamarine waters – both mere feet from the ground floor of your chic, Mexican-style beach home—your choice of ocean front casitas and villas—the rooms are spacious and all have views of the ocean.

Tropical Playground
Offering championship golf, diving, surfing, languid swimming pools, whale watching, flyboarding, fishing and the list goes on. The Lazy River is paradise for the kiddos.Dining
Under the renowned chef Philippe Piel, several restaurants offer grilled catch of the day, bountiful breakfasts, and Mexican classic cuisine. Of course, the refreshing perfectly prepared cocktails are served poolside, in the sand or in the many lounges. Cora Lounge offers panoramic views of the Pacific, and besides snacks and drinks, it is an inviting place to plop during whale watching season.

The Welcome You know I am passionate about The Welcome…On arrival, relax and enjoy the most delectable individual Margarita presented in your casita. And perfectly prepared cocktails are served poolside, in the sand or in the many lounges offering panoramic views of the Pacific.

Apuane Spa
Pièce de résistance. Step into a coastal haven of rest and tranquility. Apuane, Spanish for “healing waters,” is ultimate serenity in scenic Mexico. Spa therapists have created a special treatment that will enhance your feeling of well-being like no other massage you’ve ever experienced using tequila, indigenous sage oil and traditional Mexican healing techniques. My personal favorite: Healing Waters Body Ritual (Vichy Shower treatment) This healing ritual is a celebration honoring the Huichol “Rain Goddess” Nacawé and the healing powers of water. Renew and revitalize body and mind with a natural botanical scrub designed to revive the skin is combined with deep exfoliating massage movements to activate circulation and release tension. Native herbal ingredients and a selection of body moisturizers such as lavender, almond, or lemongrass create a treatment that is an experience and delight for all the senses.

Staff
The most devoted professional staff I’ve ever encountered. Fortunate guests will enjoy a round of golf with the very congenial GM amidst tropical jungle gardens overflowing with fragrant flowers, spectacular songbirds, colorful tree climbing iguanas, and a stunning ocean view. John is a beyond charming Irishman and if you are VV lucky he will gift you a book of his poems.
