Of course, you know what our response was...Great! Yes, there ARE items we would appreciate you checking out for everyone. How about Tower Five, the Cantina in the old golf pro shop and the new sports bar next to the new golf pro shop?



The New Property Entrance Opened December 15, 2015 - Old Entrance Closes
The new entrance to the Nuevo Vallarta propert is now open. It is a considerable distance from the old entrance, and this poses questions about entering and exiting the property by foot. The following images from Google Earth graphically show the changes that were under construction as of the imagery date of August 3, 2015.
The new entrance to the Nuevo Vallarta property opened on December 15, 2015.

The new roadway is built along the banks of the Ameca River.  On the other side is the new Greg Norman course.  Only nine holes are now open, but more are expected in March and April, 2016.

The new roadway passes under the Suspension Bridge to the Norman Course and in front of Tower Five.  Tower Five could become an important place in the future.

Tower Five - Will it be a central transportation point? What do you think?
Tower Five is the closest to the new entrance to the property, which opened today, December 15, 2015. The road from the new entrance passes in front of Tower Five and behind the Reseidence Tower.

This view of Tower Five shows the westerly facing units.  Guests on this side of the building will be treated to beautiful sunsets, much the same as the views from the west side decks of Tower One.

What's interesting about this building?
  • The lobby has very high ceilings, suggesting the lobby will make a statement.
  • The angle of the building is the same as Tower One.
  • It appears the first six floors are 10 units on each side of the building, and each unit is the same size.

La Cantina - Mexican Food And Great Surroundings
La Cantina should be a favorite for those staying close to the Grand Mayan and Grand Bliss because it is convenient. Short walk to hang out with friends on the deck or inside watching and talking sports. The food is not your typical Sports Bar food. Rather, it is mostly Mexican cuisine. Make sure you stop in at least once while you are on the property.

La Cantina will become a favorite night spot.  Quiet, good food and out door lounges.  Very fun!!

The interior is faily noise with lots of talk and music.  TV Screens show different games.  We understand there will be no college games, only pro.

For those who enjoy evenings outside, La Cantina offers a wide variety of seating options.  Very comfortable, all of them....

The Newest Sports Bar - River Corner of the Residence Tower
The Residence Tower is home to the Vidanta Golf Club House. To the left of the entrance to the new golf pro shop (Vidanta Golf Club House) is the newest sports bar on the property. Although the television feeds will remain the same as the feeds in each room, they will include professional sports games. There are a number of TV screens to view and lots of good food. Although not as expansive as La Cantina, the deck seating is very pleasant. We suspect this will be a very popular place, especially when Tower Five opens.

Nicely appointed out door seating will be very popular.  Just imagine sitting by the Ameca River enjoying your favorite beverage....

We suspect the out side seating will be very popular.  Nothing better than sitting outside and enjoying a relaxing time reviewing how well you played.
