Vidanta has spent almost half a century focused on transforming the world of luxury hospitality.
Now, we’re bringing the same innovation and imagination to reimagine the world of entertainment so that we can give you and your family amazing new ways to spend time together. Every stay at Vidanta promises outstanding food, pools, accommodations, and much more, so we wanted to ensure you had a variety of great events and shows to enjoy as well! With world-class entertainment offerings—such as Jungala, JOYÀ, Salum, Santuario, the Lake Show, and so much more—we’re sure you’ll be as wowed by the spectacles of theatrics and recreational opportunities as you’ll be by the blissful luxury found within each of our Vidanta destinations. Read on to learn about some of our most exciting offerings in the world of entertainment:
Cirque du Soleil JOYÀ
Since this incredible show first premiered five years ago in its intimate, custom-built theater at Vidanta Riviera Maya, overlooking a sprawling lagoon, it has truly become the talk of Mexico. The story of JOYÀ follows a rebellious teenage girl who gets whisked away to the mysterious Mayan jungle where her grandfather is on a relentless quest for the meaning of life. JOYÀ reveals a world inhabited by magical characters who bring the audience on a wondrous journey. This performance highlights the history, tradition, and culture of the country through its one-of-a-kind music, acrobatics, and theatrics, accompanied by a gourmet culinary experience for guests. It’s truly a can’t-miss experience for anyone visiting Vidanta Riviera Maya.
Jungala Aqua Experience
Now that the much-anticipated Jungala Aqua Experience is open at Vidanta Riviera Maya, you can enjoy this unique way to soak up the sun in a luxurious setting. This intimate waterpark offers VIP cabanas to relax in, serene pathways, jungle vibes, plenty of attentive service, delicious food options, and a curated assortment of the world’s best rides—including the longest lazy river in Latin America and a wave pool with waves up to 1.5 meters high! Jungala truly offers something for every fun/sun-seeker—and did we mention there are practically no crowds or lines?
Santuario and The Lake Show
Guests at Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta now have their choice of entertainment options thanks to Santuario, the sprawling entertainment plaza showcasing a variety of themed acts and experiences that differ each night. Enjoy refreshing cocktails in a scenic lounge space, as the line-up of performers show off their unbelievable talents—including singers, dancers, bands, acrobats, celebrity impersonators, sand artists, and so much more. Once the acts finish, a DJ takes center stage and dancing closes out the night. Or you can always head over to The Lake Show, which takes place at the lake next to the La Cantina and Gong patios. Here, every half hour, you can take in a jaw-dropping audiovisual display projected on spraying fountains. This synchronized extravaganza of water, music, and light is sure to leave the entire family transfixed in awe.
Hakkasan Group at Vidanta Los Cabos
Every stay at Vidanta Los Cabos holds unique cultural experiences and fun. That’s because the three concepts in collaboration with Hakkasan Group—OMNIA Dayclub, Casa Calavera, and SHOREbar—offer non-stop entertainment. At OMNIA Dayclub, you can kick back at a luxurious pool lounge and enjoy chill sets by world-famous DJs. Next door, at Casa Calavera, soak up the Day of the Dead-inspired bar and restaurant, which comes to life during evenings like Salsa x Salsa Night (a night filled with Mexican food and salsa dancing) or Loteria, hosting exciting rounds of Mexican bingo, where you can socialize and make new friends. And then there’s SHOREbar, offering a laid-back, beachy-cool place to spend your days and evenings. The New York Times wrote that we were one of the “high-end destinations [that] have emerged to cater to the type of crowd that appreciates modern design, farm-to-table meals, and sipping drinks as opposed to drinking shots.” And we think this is particularly noticeable at Vidanta Los Cabos.
Salum Beachside Eateries & Market
At Vidanta Riviera Maya, Salum offers the ultimate bohemian village to go on a culinary adventure in, with a host of great restaurants, stalls, and Mercado Mexico—where you can find amazing souvenirs and so much more. Inspired by the carefree energy of Tulum, it offers a casual destination for snacking, shopping, and experiencing the very best of Mexican culture. It hosts plenty of cool, shady spots to relax and just take in the beauty of your surroundings, like laidback hammocks or swing sets in a pool. But at night, the space truly comes alive, offering theme nights and live music that give it the vibrant, electric feel of a well-loved local favorite.
