St. Regis Resort Breaks Ground in Mexico´s Punta Mita

A host of dignitaries gathered in Mexico´s Punta Mita to celebrate the groundbreaking for St. Regis Resort.

Scheduled to open in late 2007, the ultra-deluxe resort is a joint venture of Ideurban Consultores, one of Mexico´s largest private development and construction companies, and DINE, master developer of Punta Mita.

St. Regis Resort, Punta Mita is the second St. Regis luxury property underway in Mexico as part of the company´s ongoing focus on international expansion. St. Regis Hotel, Mexico City is projected to open just prior to St. Regis Resort, Punta Mita in late 2007.

Located 35 miles northwest of Puerto Vallarta on the Pacific Ocean, surrounded by white sand beaches, spectacular ocean views and lush tropical landscape, St. Regis Resort, Punta Mita will feature 120 elegantly appointed guest rooms and suites, each with its own outdoor shower, and approximately 65 luxury villas for both fractional and whole ownership.

The resort will also include Punta Mita´s second Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, with greens meandering through the resort grounds, as well as a 10,000-square-foot spa and fitness center, two full-service restaurants, and a Beach Club with a pool grill and bar.

The resort will also offer 7,000 square feet of meeting and function space, ideal for corporate retreats or wedding celebrations.
