La Joya Escondita
Your Hidden Gem Between Jungle & Sea
Color, comfort, culture, and creativity — all wrapped into a real working village stay in Higuera Blanca, Nayarit.
Nestled between Monkey Mountain and the sparkling Pacific, La Joya Escondita brings together the color, rhythm, and authenticity of village life. Motorbikes hum through the streets, music drifts from open doors, kids play outside — all balanced by peaceful pockets of green in our rooftop and garden spaces.
Enjoy the rooftop pool or relax in the garden (with a heated pool coming soon).
And if you’re feeling inspired, our private on-site tattoo studio — led by Baby Handz — will soon offer guests the chance to take a little piece of their story home with them.
