There were a couple hiccups worth mentioning with the place. The extra toilet paper and towels are kept in a locked room only accessible by housekeeping, and the casa is only serviced every other day. Twice we were sleeping when the cleaner came, so we did not have our towels/TP replaced and ran out. A few more rolls in each bathroom to avoid this would be nice. We also had the keypads on the front door and door to the casita start to beep randomly at us, and then finally completely disable during the middle of our stay. Luckily the property manager is very kind and responsive and had the locks reset fairly quickly, but there was still a period of a day where we had to use the driveway door+key to enter and exit, meaning all of our guests had to leave/arrive at the same time - a bit inconvenient.
Overall I thought this was a lovely accommodation that was fairly priced and a lot more comfortable/stylish than many other places I've seen in Sayu. I hope the few quirks get worked out with facilities, but I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone.
Hi Molly.
Again, we are so sorry your stay was affected by the noise. We understand how difficult it was for you arriving on New Years Eve, with all the chaos and fireworks, after your group had been up since 4am traveling. And then the neighbors happened to run out of water late at night and the water pump truck came in the middle of the night to fill their cistern. Luckily those are both rare one-time events. We felt horrible about it and continue to apologize, but we were hoping you would understand that it was totally out of our hands. We did bring you a large selection of fans the following day to drown out the noise, and you told us it was much better the following night. As we told you, the washer and dryer are only for the housekeeper, but she was always happy to do your laundry for you. The water pump issue was fixed very quickly, you were without water for an hour or two at the most. We immediately bought a brand new pump for the house to prevent future problems. Not flushing toilet paper is the protocol in all of Mexico. They just don’t have the same infrastructure as the US and Canada, but with daily housekeeping, we have never had complaints about that before. As you mentioned that your last trip to Sayulita you stayed in a house which costs about 60% more than us, and isn’t even near the beach, we can imagine that you have very high standards, and there’s nothing wrong with that. We are just happy that everyone else who stays with us loves the house.
Eric and his assistant Sofia are so helpful. They helped us with transportation and secure awesome surfing lessons.
It has so much character and it is across the street from the beach. I think the north side is the best area in sayulita as you’re walking distance to the restaurants but it’s quiet so you don’t hear too much noise.
Book this spot! You’ll be happy you did :)
