Property Overview

  • With 15 luxury tents surrounded by 48 forested acres (19 hectares) on the edge of a private peninsula, Naviva is an adult-only sanctuary that harnesses nature to create an environment that fosters community, personal growth, and appreciation for local heritage.
  • All-encompassing Naviva stays offer an inclusive experience that removes transactions and build connections. Nightly rates include all food and beverage including specialty meals prepared to enjoy throughout the property, one complimentary spa treatment per guest, daily practices and rituals, and Unscripted Naviva experiences.
  • Naviva is designed through the lens of biophilic design and biomimicry – in which all building forms, interior designs, and guest experiences tie back to a natural phenomenon, creating a resort concept that is fully derived from nature.
  • The Resort features spacious indoor and outdoor areas that invite the verdant sights and sounds of Riviera Nayarit’s unique flora and fauna.
  • Each tent features floor-to-ceiling canvas that can be rolled up or down, blurring the line between the indoors and outdoors. The open-air living room and separate king bedroom flow out to a private patio featuring a plunge pool and expansive outdoor living area, where an outdoor shower along with a hammock or a firepit offer forest-framed refuge. Oversized bathrooms house deep soaking tubs and skylit showers that reveal uninterrupted visual connections to the outdoors.

Signature Treatments:

  • Temazcal House of Heat: The House of Heat invites guests on a personalized temazcal journey guided by a dedicated curandero to produce a mind-body awakening. Guests can choose from several focus areas, such as gratitude or devotion, to drive their customized experience. The House of Heat includes a ceremonial fire pit with seating inspired by traditional Mayan stools, a pre- and post-ceremony gathering space and an outdoor shower area.
  • Refuge Retreat: The ultimate cocooning experience to awaken the senses and deliver a regenerative reset and transformation. Guests are blindfolded throughout the Naturaleza Body Scrub, Sound Healing, and Mayan Mud Massage, before they reawakened with a Warm Bath and Gemstone Facial. 
  • Shamanic Sound Journey: A unique restorative ceremony utilizing indigenous sounds with a creative spectrum of instruments, vocal activations and touch, guests experience mental and emotional healing in mystical ways.
  • Free-diving Breathwork: Challenging the limits of the mind and body, guests will gain their PADI Certification while learning breathwork that deepens breath efficiency while challenging the human limit and mental discipline.
Dining

With a style that’s fluid and informal, Naviva removes transactions with all-encompassing stays that include all food and beverage including many premium wines and spirits, as well as specialty meals prepared to enjoy throughout the property.
