I loved this property!! It was so cute. The location is great as it is steps away from the hustle and bustle of the city but once you are inside the place it is calm and chill, and also steps away from the beach. The apartments all have an outdoor kitchen and seating area which was so unique and relaxing and the staff was really nice and helpful. Also a small pool in the entrance area but perfect for cooling off or laying beside. Would definitely recommend staying here :)

I absolutely loved this place! We stayed in the rooftop penthouse which has amazing views. The kitchen had everything needed for cooking breakfast and dinner. Comfy bed and nice shower. It’s in the heart of Sayulita so it can be noisy at night but the walls are thick and block most of the sound. Highly recommend!

The bungalow is a perfect place to stay while in Sayulita. Centrally located in the heart of the town, everything is walking distance. You are less than 2 minutes to the beach, 5 to the other side of town and right amongst the shops, restaurants and bars. The staff at the Bungalow are fantastic as well. Very friendly and kind, they are always willing to help. Elena at the front desk is wonderful as well. She knows the area very well, is quick to solve problems and is very friendly. We really appreciated all her help. A nice bonus if you plan to surf is the Bungalow is associated with one of the surf rental places so you can get a 20% discount.

You will not regret staying here. The location is PERFECT. You are steps away from the restaurants and beach. However, the bungalows have a quiet calm setting and beautiful simple design. You have a cute kitchen and small fridge in a separate space from the bedroom. They also provide filtered water. There is a small plunge pool which we did not use. Bring your own shampoo/conditioner.
