PUNTA DE MITA

A few weeks ago, I was in Mexico visiting a new area that I hadn’t been to previously.  Punta de Mita is near to Puerto Vallarta, which is the airport that you fly into.  There are some lovely properties in this area.  Punta Mita is a 1,500-acre private peninsula that is home to the Four Seasons Punta Mita, St. Regis Punta Mita, and 16 sub-communities. Punta Mita is located on the north end of Banderas Bay in the Mexican state of Nayarit, about 10 miles north of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. I am going to give a quick review to a few of the properties that I visited in this area.

If you are like me, this is a tough subject! My passion is traveling and here it is Christmas time. Everyone wants ideas for gifts, and of course, I don’t really need anything.

ACTIVE ITALY TRIPS

This week I am at a virtual trade conference for Italy.  What does this mean?  It means that I meet with suppliers from Italy online on Zoom.  I learn about new properties, new suppliers, new destination management companies, and more.  Today, I had the pleasant experience of meeting with Dolomite Mountains.  This is a destination management company, and they work with travel advisors (like me) to curate amazing experiences in their “country”. I cannot wait to share some of these amazing ideas for active travelers or skiers!

SECRET BOLOGNA EXPERIENCE

Richard and I were traveling through Bologna and I found the most special farmhouse/cooking class in the countryside of Bologna.

This secret Bologna experience has stayed on top of our minds every time we think of Italy.
