Frequently asked
Where is Sierra Lago Resort & Spa located?
Sierra Lago Resort & Spa is set lakeside in the Sierra Madre Mountains near Mascota, Jalisco — beside the pristine Laguna Juanacatlán at 7,000 feet elevation, about 2.5 hours by road from Puerto Vallarta International Airport (PVR).
Is Sierra Lago Resort all-inclusive?
Yes — Sierra Lago Resort & Spa operates as a small luxury all-inclusive, with three daily gourmet meals, premium drinks, and most on-site activities (kayaking, horseback rides, guided hikes) included in the rate.
What makes Sierra Lago different from coastal Mexican resorts?
Sierra Lago is a rare mountain-lake luxury retreat in Mexico — secluded log-style cabins, pine forest, and a crystal-clear alpine lake offer an experience nothing like the beach resorts of Puerto Vallarta or Cabo. It's TAFER's wilderness escape, designed for couples and small groups seeking total disconnection.
What activities are available at Sierra Lago?
Guests enjoy kayaking, paddle-boarding, and trout fishing on Lake Juanacatlán; horseback rides through pine forest; guided hikes to mountain waterfalls; mountain biking; and stargazing — all under high-altitude Sierra Madre skies.
What dining is available at Sierra Lago Resort?
Sierra Lago's restaurant serves regional Mexican mountain cuisine — slow-cooked dishes, lake-caught trout, and farm-to-table ingredients from the surrounding Mascota highlands — paired with a curated wine list. All meals are included in the all-inclusive plan.
Is Sierra Lago Resort family-friendly?
Yes — Sierra Lago welcomes families, with cabins that sleep up to four, gentle lake activities for kids, horseback rides, and nature programs. It's especially popular with families seeking a cool-weather alternative to Mexico's beach destinations.
When is the best time to visit Sierra Lago Mascota?
October through May offers the clearest skies and coolest weather at Sierra Lago — daytime temperatures around 65–75°F and crisp evenings perfect for the cabin fireplaces. Wildflowers peak in spring and the pine forest is most lush after summer rains.
How do I get to Sierra Lago Resort from Puerto Vallarta?
Sierra Lago is about a 2.5-hour scenic drive from Puerto Vallarta International Airport (PVR) through the Sierra Madre. TAFER arranges private ground transfers for guests; self-drive in an SUV is also straightforward in dry season.
