Hotelito Desconocido means “little unknown hotel.” And this sanctuary reserve and spa, hidden along Mexico’s perfectly pristine Costa Alegre, is an ecological wonderland of virgin beaches and blue lagoons — with the Sierra Madre Occidental as a stunning backdrop. Built to resemble an enchanting fishing village, the hotel consists of individual, thatched roof palafitos, lit by candlelight and perched along the beach and lagoon, accessible via winding wooden walkways and boats.

It’s a magical place to completely disconnect from the world and feel sequestered in sheer luxury, whether enjoying a seaside massage, dining on fresh seafood or horseback riding at the water’s edge.
