Luxury with a Lighter Footprint at Marival Distinct
Jul 21, 2025 Category: Sustainability
Welcome, dear guest. Let us tell you something we hold close to our hearts: Luxury and responsibility are not opposites. When done with care, they walk hand in hand, elevating your vacation into something richer. More meaningful. At Marival Distinct All-Suites & World Spa – Handwritten Collection, we’ve taken the best parts of a high-end beach getaway and added a thoughtful layer of environmental consciousness. It doesn’t feel like sacrifice. It feels like refinement.
So settle in, pour yourself a cold drink, and allow us to share a few of the ways we take care of our planet while taking care of you.
Wrapped in Comfort with a Gentle Touch on the Earth
Let us begin with something we all love. There is nothing quite like slipping into fresh sheets at the end of a sunny day or reaching for a plush towel after a refreshing shower. Here, our linens are soft to the touch, light enough for warm evenings, and thoughtfully cared for throughout your stay.
In your room, you will find a small card on your bed and another in the bathroom. These are your guide. If you would like your sheets changed, simply place the card on the bed. If you prefer to reuse them, just leave everything in place. Towels placed on the floor will be replaced, and those hung up will remain for continued use.
By choosing when and how often linens are changed, we conserve water and energy together. It is a small gesture, yet it gives your stay even more meaning.
Glass and Grace Instead of Plastic Waste
Inside your Residence, Penthouse, or Villa, everything is outfitted to make you feel in your own home in paradise. You won’t find plastic cups or bottles around your accommodations; here, you can serve glasses of water from an elegant glass pitcher.
Purified drinking water can be found just outside your residence in a hallway dispenser, always ready to refill your pitcher. This simple change prevents thousands of plastic bottles from entering our landfills and oceans every year. It also adds a touch of refinement that feels like home.
Refreshing Sips Without Plastic Straws
There is something special about your first drink on vacation. Maybe it’s a margarita by the pool or a fresh fruit cocktail at sunset. At Marival Distinct Handwritten Collection, every beverage is served in reusable cups or glassware, without plastic straws. In fact, you won’t find any straws here at all.
This small shift does more than protect our beautiful Nuevo Vallarta beaches. It also enhances your experience, creating the feeling of being at a social gathering at a dear friend’s home, rather than just another resort. Your drinks taste better, look better, and carry a story worth sharing.
A Bracelet That Feels as Good as It Looks
From the moment you arrive, we want you to feel like part of the Marival Distinct Handwritten Collection family. That includes how you wear your all-inclusive access. We have chosen stylish, fabric-based bracelets instead of the usual plastic wristbands. These blend into your outfits beautifully, feel soft against your skin, and are adjustable for a perfect fit.
They are also reusable. When your stay comes to an end, we invite you to return your bracelet so it can be cleaned and prepared for another guest’s vacation. It is a small step, but one that reduces waste and keeps the cycle going.
From the cocktails you savor to the linens where you sleep, every thoughtful detail is designed to make your stay both elegant and kind to the Earth. We hope to welcome you soon to Marival Distinct Handwritten Collection to experience an unforgettable and sustainable stay together.
