“Riviera Nayarit celebrates first year of achievements and growth”
"In just a year, Riviera Nayarit has begun to establish itself internationally as one of Mexico's newest and most in-demand destinations. We have become a popular year-round tourism destination demonstrated by the high average occupancies our hotels and resorts enjoy," said Marc Murphy, director of the Riviera Nayarit Convention & Visitors Bureau. "This is the result of major investment by government but also because of a remarkable joint effort by the public and the private sectors, including world-class international brands, to commit to this exceptionally beautiful and unspoiled region on the Pacific Coast. We are not going to rest on our laurels though and we look forward to improving our products and creating new creative programs to attract travelers to Riviera Nayarit."
Awards & Accolades for Riviera Nayarit
Clearly, Riviera Nayarit's public/private partnership is working. For the third year in a row, Nuevo Vallarta ranked number one for hotel occupancy rates in Mexico, almost 15 percentage points above the national average. Rincon de Guayabitos, one of the destination's charming villages, ranked number two nationally in terms of the rise in hotel occupancy rates.
The 2008 AAA Travel Guide awarded its coveted Five-Diamond Award to two resorts in the area - the Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita and the Grand Velas All Suites & Spa Resort - and the Four-Diamond Award to three others - the Grand Mayan, the Vallarta Palace, and Casa Las Brisas. Three Nayarit restaurants also earned the Four-Diamond designation.
As further proof of Nayarit's newfound popularity, in the first quarter of 2008, international arrivals were soaring, based on nearby Puerto Vallarta International Airport figures showing 900,000 arrivals, an increase of more than 30,000 passengers on scheduled service over the same period in 2007. Officials attribute the growth to success in securing air service from such U.S. cities as Chicago, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, Minneapolis, Dallas, Houston, San Francisco, Newark, Portland and Salt Lake City as well as Canadian gateways. Charter flights have also increased, by 32 per week in February 2008 alone.
