Our Journey

Garza Blanca Preserve was the first of the Garza Blanca resorts; we opened our doors in 2008 with a vision of creating a luxury resort deeply connected to the natural beauty of Puerto Vallarta. From the beginning, the idea was to make nature an essential part of the guest experience rather than simply a backdrop.

Set within a 400-acre natural preserve on the South Shore of Puerto Vallarta, the resort was designed around its surroundings, bringing together the Pacific coast, tropical landscape and thoughtful hospitality in a setting that feels distinctly connected to the destination.

As Garza Blanca has evolved, that original vision has remained at its core. The resort continues to bring together luxury, nature and Mexican hospitality while creating a place where families, couples, friends and solo travelers can experience Puerto Vallarta in their own way.

What Makes Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta Distinctive?

Garza Blanca Puerto Vallarta is shaped by its relationship with the destination. Set between the Pacific Ocean and the Sierra Madre, the resort combines its natural surroundings with spacious accommodations, thoughtful hospitality and a wide range of ways to experience Puerto Vallarta. From time spent by the beach and exploring the surrounding landscape to dining, wellness and activities, guests can choose how they want to experience their stay. The result is a resort where nature, comfort and Mexican hospitality come together, giving families, couples, friends and solo travelers the flexibility to create their own Puerto Vallarta experience.
