The all-new Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo, México is now accepting reservations ahead of its anticipated opening in late 2022.
The resort will offer 157 contemporary Mexican accommodations - many with private pools - plus four restaurants and bars, a golf course, spa and wellness experience, and much more.
"In Tamarindo, we are creating a new resort experience that is deeply connected both physically and spiritually with its surroundings," said Vince Parrotta, Four Seasons President, Hotel Operations - Americas West.
"Working closely with our visionary owner partners and myriad local and regional designers and artisans, we are offering something entirely new. To put it simply, if you think you know Mexico, you haven't been to Tamarindo."
A defining characteristic of the resort is that just 2% of the surrounding nature reserve will be developed.
"We are dedicated to the concept of 'rewilding,' enabling the Earth's natural rhythms to flourish and nature to recover its balance," says the Resort's General Manager Felix Murillo. "Everything we are doing is guided by this ethos, and it is our hope that our guests will form a deep connection both to the land and the coastline, and that in doing so they can recover their own balance and leave inspired and energized."
With unique features including an on-site working farm, Rancho Ortega, and a Discovery Centre that will serve as an introduction to nearly unlimited exploration and recreational pursuits, guests will be able to create their own version of paradise in this less travelled part of Mexico.
"Jalisco is one of the most economically and culturally important states in Mexico, owing to its natural resources as well as its long history and culture," says Enrique Alfaro Ramirez, Governor of Jalisco, México. "We are proud to welcome visitors of the state to Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo, México, a resort that represents the best in Mexican talent and celebrates Jalisco's rich land, people and traditions."
The centre of Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo is the Discovery Centre. The resort's on-site team of biologists is eager to introduce guests to the area's biodiversity, including its more than 70 endemic species of wildlife and hundreds of birds, mammals, amphibians and reptiles to be seen throughout the Reserve's more than 3,000 acres (1,220 hectares).
While on-site chef's gardens have become standard at many hotels, the Four Seasons Tamarindo resort team saw the broader possibilities offered by the region's micro climate, and thus Rancho Ortega, a 35 acre (14 hectare) working farm, was born. The cultivating of indigenous and newly introduced plants will supply the resort's restaurants with true zero-mile, root-to-dish produce.
Celebrating the region's dramatic seasonality and blending traditional flavours with modern techniques and ingredient-forward creativity, the Resort's four food and drink outlets will offer settings for everything from starlit dinners to barefoot lunches and opportunities to raise a glass with old and new friends.
The spa experience at Four Seasons continues the journey of immersion in the culture and landscape of the region, with treatments designed to connect guests with the elements and rhythms of this unique part of the world. Highlights include a temazcal ceremony, a pre-Hispanic tradition that brings together medicinal herbs and spiritual rituals to encourage personal reflection, contemplation, and re-connection.
Facilities also include a state-of-the-art fitness centre, three pools in addition to those found in many of the Resort's accommodations, plus three beaches and numerous coves ringing the peninsula.
Golfers will love the 18-hole, par 72 El Tamarindo course carefully carved into the natural landscape, with palm fringed fairways and greens. A favourite of those-in-the-know since 1995, the course is now part of Four Seasons and will offer a course-side restaurant and a pro shop.
For younger guests who want time to themselves, there's the well-equipped Escondite teen centre as well as the fully supervised Carmelo program, featuring activities that introduce children ages 5-12 to Mexican culture, history and the wonders of the Reserve's natural environment.
