Currently, the safest way to travel to catch some warmth would be to find a home away from home where you can safely have most of your meals in the privacy of “your own home”, as well as have the possibility of visiting places that follow strict safety protocols. The Grand Marina Villas are a state of the art private residential gated community with 24 hour security, that are part of the most complete residential development in Riviera Nayarit. At walking distance you find many amenities: the Paradise Plaza Shopping Center, which is the most complete plaza in Riviera Nayarit; Hospital Joya Riviera Nayarit, which is a modern medical specialty center, in case you need to take care of your health; Church; Casino; Yacht Club; Palenque Spa; banks; and ocean front restaurants. Considering we own an exclusive social membership for El Tigre Golf and Country Club, those guests who stay for 14 days or longer will be entitled to acquire a temporary membership (highly recommended) at a very convenient price, which would enable you to have access to many special amenities: El Tigre Golf Course (the spectacular 18 hole golf course is considered the most challenging golf course in Mexico and so enables you to use many clubs), the Pro-Shop Golf Store, the Club House Restaurant (featuring the famed Sunday Brunch Buffet voted Vallarta's Best Brunch), the Hacienda del Paraíso Spa. the Paradise Village Private Beach Club, and the El Tigre Sport and Racquet Club (with a fully equipped gym, a lap pool, tennis courts, basketball courts, squash courts, spinning room, a multipurpose room for different classes such as yoga, pilates, zumba, an indoor and outdoor kiddie area, air-conditioned changing rooms, steam bath and sauna, jacuzzi, showers and lockers). Right in front of the development’s gate you will find a bicycle lane that is nearly two miles long and follows all of Avenida Paseo de los Cocoteros, running parallel to the beach. Grand Marina guests enjoy running, skating and bike riding along the trail, taking pleasure in the diverse flora and fauna of the area, especially the birdlife. If two miles isn’t quite long enough for your exercising needs, the bike path connects with the Maestro Flamingos Condominium walkway, which extends another nearly two- and-a-quarter miles until it connects with the highway. This segment also offers a chance to get on the road to Bucerías via a path that begins where the hotels end in Flamingos. There are benches along the way for a rest. We have left two bikes, together with a bicycle lock chain, for you to use at your convenience, to be able to enjoy this attraction. As you can already see, the property has an unparalleled location, providing for so many amenities that leaving the area is not necessary to fully enjoy yourself. In addition, you will enjoy of a very clean and well maintained residence. The complex faces the Paradise Village Marina, which is the only marina with environmental certification in Mexico. As to the unit, you will enjoy one of the most spacious apartments in Grand Marina. The main bedroom has a king size bed with a wonderful jacuzzi and a big bathroom with a double sink. The second room also has a king size bed and a big bathroom with a double sink. The third bedroom has two single beds and a bathroom that also opens to the living room area for guests to use (a washer and dryer are tucked away in this bathroom). The dining and living room area is very spacious. The dining table sits eight. All three bedrooms and living room have a TV. The unit has a very big terrace with a wooden dining set that also sits eight, as well as a wooden sofa set. It also has two single chaises. This lovely outdoor area provides for sun bathing or just enjoying the breeze in the shade. The ample kitchen includes all the necessary appliances and a bar counter with four stools. Even though you can drink the water directly from the tap, as Grand Marina Villas enjoys a state of the art water purification system, for your peace of mind, the kitchen has a water filter at the sink. The common areas count with two pools, a jacuzzi, chaise lounges and outdoor living furniture which are set within Grand Marina Villas’ lush and beautiful gardens, meticulously maintained by a full-time grounds keeping staff. Guests may grill out on the Weber grill in the barbecue palapa (needs to be reserved in advance), and stroll along the marina waterway admiring the luxury yachts. Regarding transportation, and even though you can have a very complete vacation by enjoying the many amenities that are available at walking distance or a bike ride, our guests are entitled to the Paradise Village free shuttle that can take you to the El Tigre Sport and Racquet Club and the El Tigre Golf and Country Club. If you would want to visit Puerto Vallarta or any of the other beautiful surrounding towns that are a bit further out, our doormen are always helpful to call you a taxi that will arrive in minutes.
