While these interventions present structural challenges, they create immersive nature experiences and an unforgettable connection to place.

At the heart of the intervention was the main pool, introducing a peninsula shape that reorients the entire site toward the iconic ocean views. Given the scale of the pool, palms were strategically integrated to introduce shade, enhancing comfort and transforming the guest experience at the Marriott Puerto Vallarta. Marriott Puerto Vallarta
