Las Alamandas is an intimate Mexican hideaway retreat within a 1500-acre private paradise of exotic trees, palms, flowers, wild birds, lagoons and endless white-sand beaches. Situated on a private one-kilometer stretch of beach along Costalegre, this hideaway is managed like an elegant, private estate where guests are accorded the highest standards of hospitality.

Every single suite and guest villa at Las Alamandas features oversized tiled bathrooms and indoor-outdoor lounge areas. High-pitched tile roofs shade spacious terraces furnished for siesta time and al fresco dining. Colorfully painted paths, decorated with stone mosaics, wind through gardens fragrant with the scent of gardenias, bougainvillea, jasmine and the bright yellow alamanda flower for which the resort is named.

On the secluded beach or amid lush gardens of Las Alamandas one can relax lazily in a hammock, caressed by refreshing ocean breezes. In the micro-climate of this natural paradise, there is always a place for daydreaming. Las Alamandas — a paradise created for discerning travelers in quest of tranquility and anonymity.

GUEST COMMENTS

"We had an excellent time. The service was great and the accomodations spectacular. Thank you again for our great vacation".
—C. Dunn, USA. August, 2008.

"Las Alamandas was the most amazing place I have ever stayed. The hotel was stunning, with the amazing colours & natural materials. The food was superb, the staff low key but attentive. I will definitely be going back..."
—C. D´Arcy, USA. January, 2008.

"This place exceded our wildest dreams. The colors (inside & out) were beyond anything crayola could have created. We have never in our lives experienced the customer service we received here. It was as if the water glasses in your room refilled themselves and whatever you wished for just close your eyes & it was granted. Dinner on the patio at your room?...Done! Drinks at the huge palapa overlooking the ocean?...Done! Lunch by the pool that seems to flow over into the ocean?...Done! Horseback riding, massages, flower petals on your bed?... All Done! I still to this day love to close my eyes & go back to the hammock cradled between two enormous palm trees, just enough sun, just enough shade & the only sound is of the subtle waves washing ashore & drifting back out...Heaven! Don´t wait another year, another month, go now- your life will never be the same." K. Carlsen, California, USA.

Como se dice "luxury" en espanol? Las Alamandas! We had the Casa Del Domo at the end of the drive - it was everything I would want if I had everything I wanted! I loved the way the staff welcomed us with flowers spelling out ´bienvenidos´ on our bed, the porters who, after the first day, knowing we liked to sunbathe ocean-side vs. in our yard, had chairs, tables, umbrellas and ice for our plentiful margaritas set up by the time we returned from breakfast and the gym daily. My friend celebrated a 40th birthday while we were there and the staff went above and beyond to :1) arrange a private dinner in the massage palapa; 2) make a special birthday cake; and 3) have all the kitchen staff, the wait staff and the bar staff come out to serenade us with a Mexican birthday song!!! It was wonderful. We had a great horseback ride along the cliffs overlooking the ocean and beach side massages - it was PERFECT!

If there is such a place as heaven, I hope it is like this. Las Alamandas is a beautiful, fantastically natural secret oasis in the midst of the Mexican countryside. From the moment we passed thru the property gates onto the cobblestone drive, we knew we had discovered a very special, magical place.

PRESS COMMENTS

"...The name of this rare retreat alone is synonymous with romance. It is named for the alamanda, a fragrant yellow flower native to Mexico, with its delicate scent coaxed out by the cooler air of the evening...The concept was to provide a secluded private retreat, perfect for romance, rejuvenation, quality time away from home, or for small groups to exchange ideas in a peaceful environment, with no distractions...Four private beaches afford the opportunity for a secluded escape with a picnic, and all the essentials for a day of sand, sea, and sun. Two private cliff-top perches overlook the rugged coastline waiting to be set with candlelight for a memorable sunset dinner..."—D. Amundson. The Epoch Times. May, 2009.
