News : Portfolio : Bringing a Hidden Gem to Print: The Inn at Manzanillo Bay

A Tropical Escape, Perfectly Framed

The Inn at Manzanillo Bay is a peaceful retreat on one of Mexico’s most picturesque stretches of coast. With just ten oceanfront suites, it offers a personalized and luxurious experience far from the usual resort crowds. When The Inn was invited to advertise in The Standup Journal, they partnered with Vacation Media to create a print ad that reflected their relaxed elegance, sense of place, and one-of-a-kind setting.

Our role went beyond just design—we handled photo editing, layout, and served as the liaison with the publication to ensure specs were met and deadlines were hit. The final piece captured The Inn’s warm hospitality and stunning location, helping introduce this under-the-radar paradise to a global audience.

Design That Sells the Experience

From the typography to the imagery, everything in the ad was crafted to evoke the feeling of staying at The Inn: unhurried, intimate, and surrounded by beauty. The result was a clean, visually engaging layout that invites readers to slow down, look closer, and consider a new kind of getaway. With its placement in The Standup Journal, the ad reached an audience already tuned into surf travel, nature, and lifestyle—all perfect fits for The Inn’s laid-back luxury.
