Four Seasons Resort at Punta Mita |
In September, 2003 Adrian and Rex traveled to the Four Seasons Resort at Punta Mita,
a peninsula about 25 miles north of Puerta Vallarta, Mexico. The Four Seasons is a fairly small, self-contained resort, with beautiful grounds, terrific beaches, a fine golf course, and the nicest staff ever. We hope you enjoy these pictures of our trip. |
Settling into the Four Seasons Resort at Punta Mita. Adrian quickly found her spot for the visit. The south beach was not exactly overcrowded. Into the pool for some reading. View from the pool Adrian preparing for one of her favorite events - Lunch. This was about as busy as Rex got. A Look at The Golf Course A map of the par 3 hole number 3. Rex considers how to get to the number 3 green. Closer inspection show that the cart path seems to have some casual water. Foraging golf course coconuts for dinner. Back at the Four Seasons Adrian manages to keep in touch with her pals. The Pacific was clear and WARM! Back to lounging in the pool More such lounging. A Visit to the Local Village Adrian arranges a limo for our tour of the village. The local village was well connected to the internet. Adrian running for El Presidente while we were there. An artist's map of the Punta Mita peninsula Rex contemplates the local beach in town. Our favorite place in town. Back to the Four Seasons Resort Surf casting at the beach. A triggerfish caught by Rex (this was the fish, not the bait) Barely able to hold it up, Rex shows off his catch. All dressed up for dinner. View of part of the grounds from the lobby. The cultural center had a great table relief map of the Punta Mita peninsula. Enjoying the end of another grueling day. The sunsets were actually very nice. Building these little thatched huts took us a couple of hours each day. Picking Out Dinner Adrian picking out our fish for dinner. Local lobsters were also contenders. We finally settled on this red snapper. The parrot fish and flounder above were also considered. Adrian consulting with locals on her fish selection. The final step was to discuss how to cook the fish with Jaime - the sous chef. Testing the dessert to go with the red snapper. Back from snorkeling. Caption not necessary. Hiking to some ruins on the hills above the resort. Adrian seems pleased to have made it to the top. Adrian figuring out when we can come back to Four Seasons at Punta Mita. |
