Cala de Mar Resort & Spa

One of Mexico's most exclusive resort destinations now has its crown jewel. This intimate property caters to the world's most discerning travelers, with 59 expansive suites, a pampering spa and world-class dining in a secluded cliffside setting of profound natural beauty.

Guests, particularly couples, who crave complete privacy and seclusion will find it at Casa de Mar Resort & Spa, where a dedicated entrance leads past two of Ixtapa's most sought-after residential areas to the resort's hideaway setting, surrounded by the tropical forests of the Sierra Madre Mountains to the north and east as well as the vast waters of the Pacific to the south and west. Yet should their desires change, guests will find a wealth of world-class recreational opportunities close at hand, from championship golf to a world-class marina as well as colorful village shops and restaurants.

To preserve the resort's tranquil nature, guests may leave their automobiles with the resort valet for the duration of their stay. Pedestrian walkways and hillside inclinators take guests to their destinations within the resort grounds, while transportation services are available for travel to and from points beyond. Bicycles provided by the resort offer a leisurely option for exploratory rides around the village. An elaborate back-of-the-house tunnel system, already carved into the surrounding mountain, allows service-related traffic to occur "behind the scenes."

The resort's architectural style evokes the romance of Mediterranean hillside villages with authentic Mexican and regional influences. Accommodations are as spacious as they are luxurious, with fifty-four 1,000-square-foot standard suites and five 1,500-square-foot one-bedroom suites. Each suite enjoys a private ocean view, plunge pool and terrace.

The liffside spa will offer world-class pampering within 6,000 square feet of interior space, complemented by outdoor treatment environments that make the most of the inspirational views and a 1,300-square-foot fitness center. Local flora, culture and traditions inform the spa's exclusive menu of treatments.
