Secrets Bahia Mita destination wedding specialists at 10kWedding.
Secrets Bahia Mita sits on the golden sand beaches of Banderas Bay in Riviera Nayarit — 50 minutes from Puerto Vallarta’s airport and a world away from the hotel corridor. The resort’s 278 suites face the bay with views of the Sierra Madre Mountains and the famous Islas Marietas — the hidden-beach national park island visible from the shore. Designed by architect Sordo Madaleno around 13 hectares of jungle, the property has genuine character: a nursery with over 4,000 plant species, an eco-water treatment system, and architecture that works with the landscape rather than against it.
Your Secrets Bahia Mita destination wedding has serious range. Eleven ceremony and reception venues scale from The Nest for 60 guests to the Inspiration Garden at 800 for ceremony and 700 for reception. The Garden Bahia Mita holds 500 for a seated dinner. Beach Garden-Deck handles 170. Multiple presidential suite terraces offer intimate settings for smaller ceremonies with views over the bay. And for your guests between events — surf lessons, a zip line, a zip bike, free-flow access to the waterpark and restaurants at adjoining Dreams Bahia Mita, and a Secrets Spa designed after the Marietas Islands themselves.
10kWedding knows how group bookings at Secrets properties work. We negotiate your room block before guests start reserving, coordinate their accommodations so you don’t have to, and maintain direct communication with the resort team throughout planning and travel week. Our service to couples is always free.

Secrets Bahia Mita sits on the golden sand beaches of Banderas Bay — 50 minutes from Puerto Vallarta International Airport on the northern shore of the bay, in the exclusive municipality of Bahía de Banderas. The drive is direct, the scenery is genuine, and arriving guests land in a destination that feels a step apart from the standard all-inclusive corridor. From the beach, the Islas Marietas national park island is visible on the horizon.
Puerto Vallarta’s colonial downtown is a reasonable excursion for guests wanting something beyond the pool deck — cobblestone streets, the Malecón boardwalk, and one of Mexico’s more interesting food scenes. Sayulita, the surf and boutique village, is roughly 30 minutes north and a natural afternoon for guests wanting a local town feel. And whale watching runs December through March on Banderas Bay directly in front of the resort.
Direct taxi or private transfer along the bay — the most straightforward transfer in the region.
Free-flow access next door — additional restaurants, bars, waterpark and beach facilities included for all guests.
A well-known surf town and village with local restaurants, boutiques, and a distinctly relaxed atmosphere — an easy afternoon excursion.
Colonial downtown, the Malecón, world-class seafood, and nightlife — a full evening out for guests who want it.
The national park island with the famous hidden beach — kayaking and paddleboarding excursions available from the resort.
A marina village with a well-known Sunday market, waterfront restaurants, and sport fishing charters.
The north shore of Banderas Bay is one of the more genuinely dramatic wedding settings in Mexico — the water is warm, the mountains frame the horizon, and the Islas Marietas sit just offshore. The resort itself is large enough to accommodate a week-long celebration across multiple events, while the adults-only policy keeps the atmosphere calm and focused on your group.
The 50-minute airport transfer is predictable for groups arriving on multiple flights. Puerto Vallarta International handles direct service from most major U.S. and Canadian gateways, which means your guests aren’t routing through Mexico City or dealing with connecting flights. Arrivals are direct and the transfer is manageable.
Having Dreams Bahia Mita immediately adjacent with free-flow access is a genuine advantage for a multi-day celebration. It effectively doubles the restaurant and bar options your guests have each evening, which makes a real difference across a five-to-seven night stay with 50 to 150 people.
No wristbands. No gratuities required. Everything your Secrets Bahia Mita destination wedding guests need for an exceptional week — plus complete access to Dreams Bahia Mita next door.
Six on-site restaurants — Bordeaux (French), Olio (Mediterranean & steakhouse), Bluewater Grill (rotisserie), Mezes (Mediterranean), Beach Club (gourmet grill), and Gohan (sushi) — plus Coco Café & Gelato open 24 hours. Free-flow access to the full dining lineup at Dreams Bahia Mita rounds out the evening options.
Four on-site bars including the swim-up Manatees at the beach club pool, Barracuda beach bar, Interlude lobby lounge, and the 8th-floor Preferred Club Lounge. Access to nine additional bars at Dreams Bahia Mita, including the Speak Easy disco bar and the full sports bar.
An expansive infinity pool, an infinity water deck rooftop pool with ocean views, a beach club pool with swim-up bar, the Preferred Club rooftop pool, a Sun Deck with private lounge chairs, and the Moon Deck. The waterpark at Dreams Bahia Mita — pirate ship, 3 water slides, giant splash bucket, and heated family pools — is included for all guests.
Over 3,091 square meters designed to evoke the Islas Marietas — 19 private cabanas, two bridal suites, a hydrotherapy circuit with three saunas, three steam rooms, three cold plunge pools, Swiss-Scottish showers, a hot tub, beauty salon, and a spa boutique. Revive Bar serves fresh fruit and natural infusions inside. Open 9:30 AM–7:00 PM.
Surf lessons on Banderas Bay, a zip line tour, and the unique zip bike — both rare in the destination. Plus boogie boarding, kayaks, beach volleyball, pickleball, climbing wall, yoga, aqua aerobics, and introductory scuba diving. The bay itself makes water sports a genuine draw rather than an afterthought.
The only resort in Mexico built with 480 seismic isolators and a dedicated eco-nursery of over 4,000 plant species. The jungle isn’t decorative — it’s part of what makes the property feel genuinely different. Evening walks, naturalist activities, and a landscape that shifts throughout a week-long stay.
An open-air theater shared with Dreams Bahia Mita guests, nightly shows, themed evenings, and the Speak Easy disco bar for late nights. The theater bar, sports bar (Desires), and full entertainment schedule give your group a real evening program across a full week.
Private 8th-floor lounge, rooftop infinity pool, daily continental breakfast, afternoon hors d’oeuvres and fine liquors, concierge service, pillow menu, upgraded minibar and bath amenities, and VIP status across both Secrets and Dreams Bahia Mita. Worth it for wedding VIPs and the couple.
All 278 suites feature private furnished balconies, daily refreshed minibars, 24-hour room service, rain showers with separate shower and double vanity sinks, and remarkable ocean, panoramic, or tropical views throughout.

French cuisine in a formal setting with a proper wine cellar that accommodates up to 22 guests semi-privately. The most refined evening on the resort — a natural fit for the couple’s dinner or a small rehearsal group wanting something distinct.
Mediterranean lunch and a steakhouse and ribs specialty for dinner. The signature restaurant on property — 134 seats, outdoor seating available, and a dual identity that makes it work across the full day.
Dry aged fine cuts and rotisserie — a focused dinner concept in a 72-seat space. A strong choice for guests who want something more intimate than the larger dining rooms but still substantial.
A broad Mediterranean menu covering dishes from across the region. At 188 seats, it handles larger group evenings without feeling impersonal — a natural mid-week dinner anchor for your guests.
A compact 10-seat sushi bar — the right choice for guests looking for a lighter, more focused midday experience. It fills quickly, so guests who want it should arrive early.
Gourmet burgers, sushi, and ceviches served at the beach club pool — the natural lunch option for guests spending the day in the water. Casual and consistently popular.
Five specialty stations at breakfast — the resort’s main buffet and the most practical option for large groups coordinating a morning before excursions or events. Seats 188.
Premium coffee, gelato, and around-the-clock snacks including fruit, yogurt, baguettes, and salads. The social anchor late at night for guests returning from the theater or bars next door.
Full access to the complete dining and bar lineup at Dreams Bahia Mita next door — El Patio (Mexican), Himitsu (Pan-Asian & Teppanyaki), Portofino (Italian), Seaside Grill (seafood), World Café (buffet), and more. Effectively doubles your guests’ evening options across a full week.
Booking a destination wedding at Secrets Bahia Mita through 10kWedding is different from booking direct or through a general travel agent.

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.
