Restaurants

Aramara

Experience contemporary Asian cuisine at Aramara, where influences from the Far East blend with a taste of Mexico. The restaurant, named a "sacred place by the ocean" in the native Huichol language, blends the simplicity of contemporary Asian cuisine with the fresh produce and seafood stemming from the Pacific lands and shores of western Mexico. Located just off the main entrance to Aramara, the Aramara Bar features a lounge area, an exotic menu and live music five nights a week. Original cocktails created with fresh herbal infusions are complemented by a selection of premium beverages, including Japanese and Mexican beers, sake, Shoju, signature tea blends, Asian-spiced coffees and 40 wines by the glass.

Aramara offers indoor and outdoor verandah dining with serene views from its perch high above the Pacific Ocean and the infinity pool area. Minimalist décor opens out to the sea, with Zen-like touches such as an illuminated water fountain, subtle lighting, sleek furnishings with clean lines and simple tabletops.

Bahía

Named for the Spanish word for "bay," Bahía enjoys a prime spot amongst giant manzanilla trees on the Resort’s Las Cuevas beach. This contemporary beachfront grill offers a relaxed atmosphere with a sleek, contemporary design.

This restaurant has been positioned to take advantage of the cool ocean breezes and some of the best views of Punta Mita sunsets. The menu features a range of grilled seafood and meats cooked on the expansive mesquite grill, visible from every table. Three times a week, the chef gathers guests on the beach to participate in our famous "catch of the day" programme, where guests can work with the chef to choose from a variety of fresh seafood right off a local fishing boat. The chef will prepare selections as requested.

Bahía features a main dining room, a separate al fresco seating area perfect for large parties, and a bar area. Bahía's bar is the perfect place to enjoy one of our unique martinis while gazing at the Pacific.

Cooking classes
Every Thursday, Bahía hosts cooking classes with one of our chefs. Participants learn about each stage of the preparation of a fresh seafood lunch featuring their choice of fish from the catch of the day. The first half of the four-hour class is devoted to cooking instruction, while the second half is spent savouring the results. For more information or to book a class, contact Bahía at 52 (329) 291-6000, extension 3208.
