Villa Rentals Near Punta Mita: Mandarina, Litibu and the Riviera Nayarit Coast
The options near Punta Mita
| Place | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Mandarina | Branded One&Only Private Homes of four to ten bedrooms, with host, chef and resort access. Hillside setting about 45 to 60 minutes from the airport |
| Litibu | A few villas on a quiet, master-planned bay about 40 minutes from the airport |
| Punta Mita | The widest choice of villas, beach clubs and golf on the peninsula |
How to choose
Choose Punta Mita for the largest selection, beach clubs and golf. Choose Mandarina for one large staffed villa with resort service and a hillside setting. Choose Litibu for a quieter coast and easy access to Sayulita and San Pancho. A longer trip can combine two of them.
Getting there
Mandarina is roughly 45 to 60 minutes north of the Puerto Vallarta airport, and Litibu is about 40 minutes. Punta Mita is on a different stretch of the same coast, so a trip can combine them. Ask Costa how to plan the transfer for your group.
How Costa works
Costa is a free local guide with a curated collection of homes it knows in person. You tell us your dates, group size and must-haves, we send the current collection that fits, and every detail is confirmed directly with the property before you book. Payment stays between you and the property, and Costa does not quote prices.
Who this is not for
If you want a walkable town with many restaurants, none of these three is the answer on its own. Ask Costa about the towns on this coast.
Tell Costa your dates, group size and must-haves in the chat, and we will send the current collection that fits.
