go to original April 4, 2013

Two new hotels are slated to open in Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit this year, including the Iberostar Playa Mita, and Tau Resorts Nahui.

The 452-room Iberostar I Playa Mita will open to the public in late 2013 in Litibú, located at the north end of Banderas Bay. The all-inclusive property will feature two pools, a Kids Club, four specialty restaurants, three bars and meeting facilities. Guests will also have access to the nearby Greg Norman-designed 18-hole championship golf course. The resort will be Iberostar's tenth Mexican property.

Tau Resorts reports that Tau Resorts Nahui is building two resorts, the first of which will open late this year with 172 two-bedroom units. Amenities at Nahui will include a village, Beach Club, golf course, hiking trails and oceanfront water sports center in Punta Mita, Destiladeras.

The properties join the Grand Luxxe Nuevo Vallarta, which opened in February 2010, and will add 144 more rooms by November.

Last year, Grand Palladium Vallarta Resort & Spa, Occidental Grand Nuevo Vallarta, Four Seasons Punta Mita and Hotel CINCO finalized major renovations to enhance visitors' experience. Riviera Nayarit also welcomed the new Hard Rock Vallarta resort in August.
