One&Only Mandarina

Riviera Nayarit, Mexico

• No.8 The World's 50 Best Hotels 2023

Amidst the burgeoning luxury hotel boom along Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit, One&Only Mandarina is one of the finest of the bunch. Flanked on both sides by stunning rainforests and the expanses of the Pacific Ocean, this 88-acre property delivers on its promise of restrained, sleek luxury that’s come to be expected from the hotel group. There are no ‘rooms’ in this hotel – instead, there are 105 villas across the estate, each fitted with its own plunge pool, open-air living space and butler in tow. Inside the rooms, it’s all about clean lines and stained wood. To maximise the breath-taking views on offer, each villa houses a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the space to life. Further grounding the hotel into its locality, it offers a range of activities to get to know the area, including guided spiritual healing ceremonies centred around the use of indigenous plants. For a bite to eat, don’t miss out on its lauded eatery, helmed by Enrique Olvera of Mexico City’s famed Pujol.
