Majahuitas: an eco-friendly resort

The Hotel

Majahuitas is an eco-friendly resort consisting of only eight little casitas, all built strategically around the cove to enjoy a beautiful ocean view. The resort is located on one of the most exclusive beaches in the Bay of Bandera’s and is only accessible by boat. Although not an island, you will get the feeling of being on your own private deserted getaway. All energy is solar powered so you will not find televisions or air-conditions, but trust us, you won’t need them.

The hotel is built on communal land belonging to the indigenous community of Chacala, which cannot be bought or sold under any circumstance. A group of investors wanted to share this beautiful corner of Mexico with the world and signed a twenty year lease on the property in 1996. Their dream was to create a place where people could come and get away from the worries of everyday life, a business that would place all its values on friendliness and service, while remaining environmentally sustainable. Thus began the experience that is Majahuitas Resort.

Please note:

* All beaches in Mexico are public by federal law.
* We have boats visit us from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm.

Dining

* Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner are included in nightly rates.

Long after you’ve left Majahuitas, you will find yourself remembering the meals you ate during your stay. Our cookbook is one of the most sold items in our gift shop. You will try traditional Mexican cooking, along with plenty of seafood and three course gourmet dinners. If you are vegetarian, vegan, or are allergic to some foods, the chefs cater to meet your needs.

Visit Puerto Vallarta Amor Puerto Vallarta
For more tourist information about Puerto Vallarta see a great visitor, vacation guide including Hotels, Restaurants, Bars, Shopping, Places, Health/Beauty, Art Galleries, Culture, Classes, Tours, Services, Real Estate and more Puerto Vallarta Guide


There are three settings for meals. Inside our dining room under a huge 25 candle chandelier, on a deck on the beach, or on a romantic table setup inches from the waves and right under the moonlight.

Breakfast (served at 9:30am): Starts off with fruit, fresh squeezed orange juice and coffee, followed usually by a traditional Mexican breakfast such as Huevos Rancheros, Burritos, or Chilaquiles to a name a few.

Lunch (served at 2:30pm): An assortment of Tapas. Most dishes are seafood and range from shrimp, fish and octopus, to guacamole and fajitas.

Dinner (served at 7:30pm): All guests sit together in one large family style table, unless you prefer to sit on your own. Dinner is a three course gourmet style meal. Dishes are international and include steak, pastas, chicken and seafood.

Play

Most guests visit us to relax, but there is a lot to do if you’re feeling adventurous.

Free of charge:

* Kayaks
* Snorkeling gear
* Beach Volleyball
* Table Tennis
* Hike to waterfall: Guided tour through the jungle ending at Quimixto waterfall. From 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.


Reservation required:

At Majahuitas we take the term ecotourism seriously. In an effort to make our ecological footprint as unnoticeable as possible, we have taken upon the following practices:


* Alternative Energy: The main lobby and all eight rooms rely on solar energy for lighting. Cliff House also has a solar water heater.

* Composting: Biological decomposition of organic materials that enrich garden soils and decrease the need for additional watering.

* Towel Re-Use Program: Help reduce the water and energy consumption in washing towels daily.

* Water Conservation: Some casitas have low flow toilets, and the lobby has a waterless urinal.

* Xeric Gardens: The use of plants on the property that are native to the region and thus require the use of less water.

* Eco-friendly food: We do not buy farm raised seafood. All of our seafood is caught by local fishermen ensuring the freshness of our food and support for the local economy.

* Recycling Program: Recycling bins are located at the hotel lobby for every day plastic bottles, soda cans, etc.

Each individual casita has been built with privacy and comfort in mind, and decorated with charming local crafts. The construction is mostly open-air to take advantage of the gentle breeze, fabulous ocean views and sounds of the sea. The resort is solar powered, so you won't find televisions or telephones to break the spell of an "island adventure", but you will find solar lighting for night time reading.

There are only eight casitas and they vary in size and uniqueness to accommodate couples or families. At full capacity of 30 guests, you will never run into a crowd. The intimate setting will make you feel like you've found your very own private retreat from the world.


Our eight rooms are:

Los Arcos- Two king size beds, two bathrooms

Bougainvillea- One King, one bathroom

Jungla- Two doubles, one bathroom

Beach House- One double, one bathroom

Los Mangos- Two King, one double, one and a half baths

Sunset- One king, one queen, one bathroom

Chula Vista- One king, one bathroom

Cliff House- Two Queens, two singles, two baths

Influences converged during the 1960s and early 1970s to launch Puerto Vallarta into its trajectory toward becoming a major resort destination with world class hotels. First the federal government finally resolved century old property disputes involving the status of communal land in Puerto Vallarta originally appropriated from the Union en Cuale mining company to be parceled out as farms. The communal (ejido) status of the land had stifled development in Puerto Vallarta for much of the 20th century. The transition to private ownership of much of the land within present city limits of Puerto Vallarta culminated in the appropriation of much of the land in 1973 and the establishment of the Vallarta Land Trust (Fideicomiso) to oversee selling the land (mostly for hotels and resorts) and using the revenue to develop the city’s infrastructure.
