Marival Armony Luxury Resort & Suites now open
With its spacious suites, the former Rancho Banderas Resort & Suites is ideal for multi-generational vacations

Montreal, May 15, 2019 – Transat is pleased to offer its customers the chance to vacation at the all-new Marival Armony Luxury Resort & Suites in Riviera Nayarit, on Mexico’s west coast. The five-star hotel is in beautiful Punta de Mita, about an hour from Puerto Vallarta, where Banderas Bay meets the Pacific Ocean. With its omnipresent ocean views and lush natural surroundings, the entire property is suffused with a sense of tranquility.  

Marival Armony Luxury Resort & Suites dazzles at first sight with its 281-metre stretch of white-sand beach and the turquoise expanse of the Pacific Ocean—the setting for some of Mexico’s most spectacular sunsets.  

With their welcoming staff and spacious rooms, Marival hotels are known for making guests feel right at home. And Marival Armony Luxury Resort & Suites is no exception. The hotel has 268 rooms and one-, two- and three-bedroom suites, each with its own balcony or patio. This makes for great multi-generational holidays, allowing family members the privacy they need for an unforgettable stay.

The hotel has five bars and five restaurants that will delight even the most discerning palates, with menus that celebrate local flavours. Foodies will certainly fall for Divum, where wine and food are expertly paired for exquisite gastronomy.

Kid-friendly

Being multi-generational means having kids’ features, of course. And with the Marival Kids activities program and kids’ club, it’s all fun and games for children aged 4 to 12. Teens, for their part, have their own club with table tennis, video games and a billiard table. Another nice touch at Marival Armony Luxury Resort & Suites is Family Emotion, a concierge service that lets families customize their entire holidays with amenities for every occasion, like a complimentary beach kit, video games and sundry snacks and drinks delivered to their room.

Adults-only getaways

Couples seeking some quiet time can check into an exclusive section for adults aged 18 or more. The section even has its own pool.

In the spring of 2017, Transat acquired 50% of Marival Armony Luxury Resort & Suites, formerly known as Rancho Banderas Resort & Suites.
