Dreams Bahia Mita destination wedding specialists at 10kWedding.
A Dreams Bahia Mita destination wedding puts you on the shores of Banderas Bay with one of the most dramatic settings in all of Riviera Nayarit — mountains rising behind the property, Marietas Island visible from the shore, and a resort built into jungle-covered hillside by one of Mexico’s most celebrated architects, Sordo Madaleno. All-inclusive in format, it’s unmistakably somewhere in character.
In terms of scale, the property holds 421 all-suite rooms and a genuinely remarkable range of wedding venues: the Garden Bahia Mita accommodates 600 for ceremony and 500 for a seated reception outdoors, while the 12,046 sq ft Inspiration Ballroom handles up to 800 for ceremony and 700 indoors. At the other end of the spectrum, intimate presidential terraces hold 60 to 120 guests with panoramic bay views. With eleven venues in total, every group size and vision has a real home here.
Beyond the wedding itself, your guests have plenty to do all week: a waterpark with three slides and a zipline, surf-friendly waters on Banderas Bay, five nearby championship golf courses, and the Secrets Spa — 33,000+ sq ft inspired by the famous Marietas Island, including 19 treatment cabanas and two dedicated bridal suites. 10kWedding knows this property and this team. We’ll make sure your group gets the best of all of it.

Dreams Bahia Mita sits on Banderas Bay in Riviera Nayarit — 50 minutes from Puerto Vallarta International Airport and a world away from the tourist corridor. Built into the hillside above the bay with views toward Marietas Island, the property has a sense of place that most all-inclusive resorts don’t achieve. Guests land in Puerto Vallarta and arrive at a resort that genuinely feels like it belongs to its location.
The surrounding area rewards guests who want to explore. Within 45 minutes there are five 18-hole golf courses, whale watching and deep sea fishing charters on Banderas Bay, PADI diving at Los Arcos National Park, and kayaking out to Marietas Island just four miles offshore. Punta de Mita — a short drive away — gives guests a real Mexican beach town experience that no resort strip can replicate.
Direct transfer from PVR. Private group shuttles and shared services available through the resort concierge.
This peninsula is home to the Jack Nicklaus golf course and a laid-back Mexican beach town — a natural half-day trip for guests.
A protected natural sanctuary visible from the resort. Home to the famous hidden beach — a perfect group excursion.
Cobblestone streets, nightlife, the Malecón boardwalk, and some of Mexico’s best independent restaurants — accessible for a full evening out.
18-hole championship course just down the road — the closest of five professional courses within a 45-minute drive.
A unique underwater park and one of Mexico’s most popular dive sites — perfect for groups with divers or snorkelers in the mix.
This stretch of coastline — Banderas Bay and the Riviera Nayarit — offers something meaningfully different from a resort corridor experience. The setting is genuinely dramatic: ocean on one side, the Sierra Madre rising behind the property, and Marietas Island as a visible landmark from the terrace. Guests who want a vacation that feels like a real destination will find that here.
Getting here is also straightforward. The 50-minute transfer from Puerto Vallarta International is easy — PVR is a major hub with direct flights from across the U.S. and Canada, which keeps the logistics simple for large groups. Guests on different flights can coordinate easily, and no one is spending three hours in a van after landing.
For couples who want an all-inclusive week with real outdoor adventure built in — surf-friendly waters, golf, whale watching, fishing, a zipline on property, and Marietas Island minutes offshore — Riviera Nayarit and Dreams Bahia Mita are a genuine match.
No wristbands. No gratuities required. Everything your Dreams Bahia Mita destination wedding guests need for an exceptional week on Banderas Bay.
Six à la carte restaurants — including Portofino’s Italian gourmet with wine cellar, Himitsu’s Pan-Asian and Teppanyaki tables, Meraki’s Mediterranean-Asian fusion, and Nebbiolo’s wood-fired pizzas — plus buffet, snack venues, a gelato stand, and 24-hour Coco Café. No reservations required.

Additional CostPlanning a Dreams Bahia Mita destination wedding through 10kWedding gives you a team that already knows this property — the wedding coordinator, how group bookings work here, which venues photograph best in which light, and what the resort will and won’t negotiate. Unlike a general travel agency that handles cruises and packages on the side, destination weddings are all we do.
Before your guests start booking rooms, we negotiate and secure your group room block — getting rates locked in, upgrade eligibility confirmed, and inventory reserved. We also build your group a dedicated wedding website so there’s one place for everything: reservations, travel details, and event schedules. When something needs to be sorted during planning or during the actual week, we have a direct line to the right people at the resort.
We combine the technology of a modern booking platform with the expertise and personal care of a dedicated travel specialist who has been inside these resorts, met the coordinators, and knows what matters on wedding day.
Our planning services are 100% free to couples.
Simple, transparent room rates. Easy payment terms. That’s the 10kWedding commitment.
GET STARTED TODAY →Dreams Bahia Mita is a property that earns its setting — the architecture is intentional, the venues are genuinely large, and the surrounding bay gives your guests a week they’ll actually remember. 10kWedding’s job is to make sure your group arrives set up for all of it. Our service is always free to couples.
