Christmas at the W Hotel in Punta Mita

A Christmas Escape to Paradise: Six Nights at the W Punta Mita

Spending Christmas in paradise is a dream come true, and our six-night stay at the W Punta Mita was nothing short of magical. With my husband and two adult daughters, we indulged in a perfect blend of relaxation, indulgence, and adventure, all set against the stunning backdrop of Mexico’s Pacific coast.

Days by the Adult-Only Pool

From sunrise to sunset, we made the adults-only pool our home base. The serene ambiance, comfortable loungers, and attentive service created the perfect setting for ultimate relaxation. Whether basking in the sun or cooling off with a refreshing swim, we embraced the laid-back luxury that the W Punta Mita is known for. One of the most breathtaking moments was spotting humpback whales from our chairs, a truly unforgettable sight that added to the magic of our stay.

The Daily Taco Ritual

Every afternoon, we looked forward to one of the highlights of our trip—tacos. The fish and steak tacos quickly became our favorites, bursting with fresh flavors and perfectly seasoned. Each bite was a reminder of why Mexican cuisine is beloved worldwide.

Staying Active: Gym and Beach Walks

Despite our indulgent meals, we balanced it out with daily workouts at the gym. The well-equipped fitness center kept us energized, while our long walks along the beach provided the perfect opportunity to soak in the breathtaking scenery. With the waves lapping at our feet and the warm ocean breeze, these moments became some of our most cherished.

Evenings of Jalapeño Margaritas and Stunning Sunsets

As the day wound down, we made our way to the beachfront bar, where we sipped on jalapeño margaritas while watching the sky transform into a masterpiece of colors. The combination of the spicy, citrusy cocktails and the mesmerizing sunsets made for an unforgettable experience each evening.

A Memorable Dinner at Casa Tradicional

One evening, we ventured off the resort for an authentic Mexican dining experience at Casa Tradicional. A van picked us up and transported us to a warm and inviting restaurant filled with the sounds of live music. We indulged in flavorful enchiladas and sizzling fajitas, all perfectly complemented by classic margaritas. The vibrant atmosphere, incredible food, and festive energy made this dinner one of the most memorable of our trip.

A Christmas to Remember

Our time at the W Punta Mita was a perfect balance of relaxation, indulgence, and adventure. Whether lounging by the pool, savoring mouthwatering tacos, enjoying spicy margaritas, or embracing the lively spirit of authentic Mexican dining, every moment was special. This Christmas getaway was truly an escape to paradise—one we will cherish forever.
