To Boca de Tomatlán
A short ride along the coastal road south of Puerto Vallarta to the boarding point.
Sister hotels · The Amaca family
Two Amacas. Two ways to experience Puerto Vallarta.
Amaca Petit connects you with the Zona Romántica. Amaca Beach Retreat trades streets and rooftops for the sea and nature in Quimixto.
One trip, two experiences
Start in the city, continue by the sea
Amaca Petit Hotel is your base in the Zona Romántica: dining, rooftop, and neighborhood life. When you're ready to trade pavement for sand, Amaca Beach Retreat awaits in Quimixto, a quiet beach south of the bay, surrounded by jungle, river, and waterfalls.
Many of our guests combine both worlds in a single trip: a few days in the city and a few days at the beach, all within the Amaca family.
Your boat ride to Quimixto, included
As part of the Amaca family, your round-trip boat transfer from Boca de Tomatlán is included. Just arrive at the boarding point and we'll take you across to Amaca Beach Retreat, on the other side of the bay.
The destination
Quimixto, a corner the world hasn't quite reached
Quimixto is a small village on the south coast of the Bahía de Banderas, with no road access: it can only be reached by sea. A near-untouched beach, a river flowing down from the mountains, a waterfall you can reach on foot or on horseback, and the calm of a place where the day is measured by the light.

How to get there
The journey is part of the plan too
Getting to Quimixto from Puerto Vallarta is simple, and the boat ride is one of the best parts of the experience.
Cross by sea
Your boat, included as an Amaca guest, crosses the bay to Quimixto. In season, it's common to see whales along the way.
You arrive at Amaca Beach
We welcome you on the beach. From there on, the rushed world stays on the other side of the water.
For those who love to hike
Hikes from Boca de Tomatlán
Before or after crossing, Boca de Tomatlán is the starting point for some of the bay's most beautiful coastal trails: hikes between jungle and sea that connect hidden beaches like Las Ánimas, Colomitos, and Quimixto itself.
And once in Quimixto, the trail to the waterfall is an unmissable outing, on foot or on horseback.
