Situated amidst one of Mexico’s last remaining beachfront jungles, One&Only Mandarina Private Homes features a collection of 55 ultra-private villas neighboring the new One&Only Mandarina beach resort on Riviera Nayarit. Among the first One&Only villas to own in the world, the homes are located along a lush, tropical hillside above a one-mile stretch of sandy beach one hour north of Puerto Vallarta. The villas feature the innovative, forward-thinking vision of the acclaimed Rick Joy Architects, a firm renowned for its climate responsive, environmentally sensitive work. The homes were designed to blend with the landscape rather than reshape it and to capture dynamic views of the surrounding mountain peaks, jungle and ocean below.
“I use the villa as an instrument to capture and augment the already existing atmosphere and surroundings,” Joy explains. The villas are carefully positioned amidst the trees to maximize sunlight, ocean breezes and view lines, offering varying experiences as one moves through the homes. Far-reaching views capture the hillsides fading into jungle canopies and the landscape dropping off to the sea, while up-close jungle views show the sun filtered through the leafy trees. Each of the villas and estate villas is architecturally unique and designed specifically for its location.
The villas feature four, five and eight-bedroom floor plans offering from 7,500 to 18,000 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor living. Glass walls blur the line between the two, while custom woodwork, stone accents and earthy tones add a rich, textural warmth to the interiors. Each villa features expansive outdoor living spaces with an infinity-edged pool, shaded dining terrace, heated spa and fire pit with built-in seating. Great rooms open on nearly all sides to the ocean and jungle views, while featuring chef-caliber kitchens, living areas and dining spaces that transition effortlessly to the pool terrace. Bedroom suites feature private baths and terraces and offer ample space for large-scale gatherings and extended guest visits.
“Each day, you can wake up and decide what kind of experience you want to have. The villas are really the instruments that frame those experiences,” Joy adds. The experiences offered, both at home, and throughout the master-planned Mandarina community, are abundant. Residents of One&Only Mandarina Private Homes enjoy the services and amenities of the neighboring One&Only Mandarina, including world-class cuisine, a private beach club, One&Only Spa and an outstanding, nature-focused kids’ club. Residents also have access to the state-of-the-art Mandarina Polo & Equestrian Club, the adjacent Rosewood Mandarina, a farm-to-table restaurant, miles of hiking, biking and horseback riding trails, and The Outpost, where jungle adventures include a zipline, climbing wall, rappel course and obstacle trail.
