Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (January 7, 2026) – Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit announces the completion of an extensive suite renovation late last month. The $30 million transformation of the resort’s Master, Parlor, and Grand Terrace suites, completed over a span of 12 months, debuted with a reimagined aesthetic that embraces a more modern expression of comfort and elegance. The design centers on creating brighter, calmer spaces that feel intimately connected to the natural beauty distinct to Riviera Nayarit. The goal is for guests to feel an immediate sense of serenity, comfort, and understated luxury from the moment they step inside.
The renovated suites, all larger than 1,000 square feet, feature a sophisticated palette of sand, beige, cream, and warm wood tones, complemented by subtle green accents inspired by the surrounding landscape. Natural materials, including polished stone, wood paneling, textured upholstery, and organic fabrics, create a harmonious balance between sophistication and tactile comfort. Local craftsmanship plays an integral role, with regional artistry reflected in carefully selected textiles and woodwork that bring an authentic sense of place to each space. Standout features include backlit wall details and elegant natural stone textures, to create immediate “wow” moments.
Sustainability was prioritized throughout the renovation process. Energy-efficient lighting, durable long-lasting materials, and eco-friendly finishes reduce environmental impact, while local supplier partnerships minimize transportation footprint and support responsible sourcing practices.
Beyond aesthetics, the renovation delivers enhanced functionality with improved seating areas, ergonomic furniture, upgraded bedding, and increased storage. Updated technological systems include energy-efficient lighting controls and enhanced connectivity for guest devices. The open design and thoughtful lighting plan create intuitive, relaxing spaces that support seamless luxury stays.
Resort rates start at $533 USD per adult based on double occupancy. Rate includes luxury accommodations, a la carte gourmet meals at a variety of specialty restaurants, premium branded beverages, 24-hour in-suite service, taxes, gratuity and more. Virtual tours of the new renovations can be found here. For more information about the hotel or to make a reservation, please visit https://vallarta.grandvelas.com.
