About Marival Residences & World Spa
The Marival Residences and World Spa is a luxury resort in the Riviera Nayarit, not far from the area's decadent beaches and azure surf and 15 minutes from the Puerto Vallarta International Airport. Guests have the option of either European-plan or all-inclusive stays, which include all meals, unlimited selected excursions and golf green fees, and exclusive access to the VIP Beach Club.
Marival's 169 accommodations or "residences" come with fully equipped kitchens, airy terraces overlooking garden or ocean views, and, in some cases, private swimming pools. During the day, the 900-square-meter World Spa, where a diverse menu merging classic rituals from nine cultures - Mexico, Italy, Japan, Turkey, Russia, Bali, Thailand, India and the U.S. - waits to be explored. At night, the rooftop Insú Sky Lounge beckons guests with its striking views, reflection pool, wall-to-wall fireplace, and sumptuous menu of fare and cocktails.

Melange World Spa befits its name, melange, meaning "mixture of components" in French, by drawing inspiration for treatments and interiors from around the globe. Each of the nine treatment rooms, including one couple's suite, are designed to reflect a different country, from Mexico and the U.S. to Italy and Japan to Bali and Thailand - as are each of the nine signature treatments.
Specialized therapies include Balinese, shiatsu, and Thai massage, a Turkish bath ritual, vinotherapy service, and body treatment with Mayan mud, indigenous agave, and cacao.
The extensive menu also celebrates thalassotherapy, Ayurvedic therapies, anti-aging and deep-cleansing facials, body treatments, nail care, and massage services. Treatments combine a wealth of products, including Repêchage, Jamu, and OPI.
A boutique, steam room, sauna, and locker rooms with showers are also available in the 900-square-meter spa. Complimentary refreshments can be enjoyed in relaxation areas.
