If you’re planning your wedding here please get in contact with Karen Ruezga, she is the best at what she does. You can email/call Villa Amor and they will get you in contact with her. She is super responsive and very professional. Down to budget sheets to last-minute requests. She is so on it!
We got to Sayulita a few days before the wedding. We wanted to get a few days in before the wedding hosting had to start. Sure enough the morning (7am) before the wedding rehearsal my wife is sick and has the stomach bug. I make it to the local pharmacy and get her drugs with hopes of it working and then head to the wedding rehearsal to meet Karen. Once there and I explain to Karen what is going on she immediately tells me she’s going to take care of it and calls a doctor to head to our room. It felt like a weight taken off my shoulders cause I knew Karen would come through , and she did. Doctor showed up / Bed Nurse for 10hrs- 3 bags- and few injections later my wife was good to go by 6pm. It was incredible!
The wedding the following day was perfect right on the beach. Dancing on the sand and drinking it all in. The whole place had lights dangling from the trees and the Sayulita flags as well. Wish I could do it all over again.
The restaurant at Villa Amor - Si Senor, is very good, but you can find more affordable food in the town.
The wedding was AMAZING. Karen Ruezga and her team are the best! Karen made the whole planning process very easy and stress free. I sent her a few pinterest photos of what I wanted, and was so happy with the final product. The decor was beautiful. Karen was there the day of and was so professional. One of my bridemaids was "sick" the day of the wedding, and Karen knew exactly what to do so that she didn't miss our special day. The service during the cocktail hour, and dinner was second to none, and the dinner was DELICIOUS.
All in all, we had a wonderful experience and wish we could do it again
We started planning our wedding with Karen last January. From the beginning, she made everything so easy. She never left out a detail and was great at communicating. She is extremely organized and made the wedding planning process fun. They also kept track of which of our guests were staying in what villas. They would send me this update weekly. This helped for when our guests checked in, so they could hand out their welcome gifts!
Beyond her extremely professional side, she is so friendly. I changed my mind on details multiple times throughout the process and Karen was so patient. She definitely has a can-do mentality! She was always available and quick to answer my questions.
It was hard for me to let go and trust someone else to help, but that’s what you need to do when you’re planning your wedding from another country. Karen put my mind at peace and I learned to trust her with each detail. Karen offered many options, solutions, and organized all the small details I brought personally so perfectly.
Villa Amor and Karen helped organize activities for guests, shuttles to/from the airport, golf carts, grocery trips, and any other inquiries we had. Everything went perfectly with transportation and our wedding guests were so happy and comfortable. Villa Amor and Karen provides the most wonderful service to our guests and I could not be more appreciative!
We got married February 1, 2020. The day of was absolutely perfect! Every single detail was even better than I expected. It was so beautiful. Honestly, everything was a dream from the ceremony details, the decorations, the timing, the food, the service, literally everything...! All of our guests were completely blown away too, each guest saying that this was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been to. Thank you so much, Karen and all of Villa Amor!
The restaurant on the property is quite lovely but more expensive than the restaurants on the beach which were very good. The fresh fish is amazing
