As they all say, pictures don’t do the place justice. Far superior in reality! Casa Paloma was the highlight of our two family Sayulita summer vacation. Four girls age 10 to 13 and two couples.

Three separate living areas so all of us could be together or alone whenever we desired. Unique and exquisite decor and art. Great communication by owners prior to trip made it easy. Great house manager while at property that was always available and prompt with answers to any questions.

Upstairs open air living, dining, and kitchen provided unmatched views of beach. Could watch the kids surf from the Casa. Unbelievable Views straight out of a movie. I suggest renting the entire property for the entire experience. Very safe and secure property . Rooftop views are crazy cool!

Not sure would want our 80 year old parents walking up and down the very cool garden path (mini Lombard street) to the beach and town but really fun for us. We did lots of surfing, stand up paddle, and shopping. Don’t waste time and money shipping boards as can rent any kind for cheap. Be prepared for onslaught of locals selling their goods on street and beach. Lots of very cool stuff but gets old saying , no gracias. The 2-hour horseback ride through the jungle to the beach from painted ponies was awesome. Four girls rode as slow or fast as wanted on the beach. If want a party boat to snorkel, kayak, and water slide into ocean then Chica Locca is the one. Unlimited open bar and super fun crew. Goes to Las Marrietas islands . Dolphins stayed with the boat for probably 30 minutes so close kids could touch them. Daniel of Mexitik was our personal chef for birthday dinner last night. Unbelievable Asian fusion dishes at half the price would have paid at high end restaurant in our area. Flambayed fresh tuna steaks off the boat, three types of spring rolls (try the marlin) and avacado chocolate mousse that was possibly the best dessert I have ever enjoyed. If want basic Mexican then let Dora & Santos (they double as the housekeeping crew) fix you up enchiladas.

When go back to Sayulita, I wouldn’t even consider looking for another property.

Dennis and Kathleen, thanks for the memories!
