“This reinvention project is a pivotal chapter in the history of the resort, welcoming in a new era of unmatched luxury for our guests,” said Gonzalo Guelmanros, general manager, St. Regis Punta Mita. “Positioned in one of the most coveted areas of Punta Mita, our property embodies the elegance our innovative founder John Jacob Astor IV built and we look forward to welcoming both new and returning loyal guests to experience this next phase for the resort.”
Eight Ocean Front Beach Villas were reimagined to now feature large open spaces, huge apertures and local materials, each boasting its own dipping pool. In-room amenities include a Gold Beauty Bar and the St. Regis Signature Butler is available day or night to all guests. Newly designed guestrooms and suites utilize color, lighting and natural elements to evoke the spirit of traditional Mexican Haciendas.

May 14, 2025Hotel Van Zandt Review
One step onto Austin’s Rainey Street and you’ll feel like you’ve joined the cool kids at the best playground in the city. Just behind the cottage bars, pint-sized skyscrapers soar. One of them, Hotel Van Zandt, the Rainey district's pièce de resistance, beckons with a song-like spirit —apropos because the independently owned property, rife with music motifs, was named after beloved singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt. Sixteen stories high, the hotel embodies Austin’s lust for music, manifesting with a vinyl corner; trumpet chandeliers; myriad musical references; replica vintage posters in frames; and its own live music venue, which doubles as its acclaimed restaurant, Geraldine’s. Don’t miss the mesmerizing installation of colorful origami-like birds composed from vinyl records that flitter from an old phonograph.
