Description

Welcome to Villa Dorado Penthouse in Sayulita! The signature Penthouse suite of Villa Dorado. Accommodating 2 people, the Penthouse has been designed for high end couples, and potentially longer stays, in mind. Sitting high atop Villa Dorado, this is a massive, 2-level suite featuring a gorgeous lounge area, fully equipped kitchen, complete with sit-up bar against quartz countertops, a dishwasher and all the conveniences and comforts of home. The top level features your own private rooftop terrace, perched high in the palm trees and with surreal ocean views. The sound of the ocean along with the birds and overall tranquility really make this a special space to relax and soak up the Sayulita experience. The secured, climate controlled master king suite feature a King Size bed adjacent to a large sliding glass door for that peaceful, soothing open-air feel yet totally private. This space also features an ensuite bathroom and separate lounging are for catching up on email or watching Netflix.

If you are holidaying with another couple, a truly unique feature of the Dorado Penthouse is its ability to rent it in tandem with the Villa Robalo Penthouse next door. There is a shared door, locked off from each side, that can be opened allowing guests to socialize and flow through to each suite when rented together. Both suites offer the highest in luxury each with their own private roof-top terraces. Click HERE for pricing and availability.

Villa Dorado is located on the quieter and sought after north side of town, in the beachfront Villas del Palmar complex, fully gated with 24 hour onsite security. The Plaza and Sayulita’s el centro, loaded with authenticity and the true pulse of this Pueblo Magico, is only a 5 minute walk away where you are treated to some of the best dining and shopping in all of Riviera Nayarit. Everything Sayulita has to offer, all within walking distance, and no steep hills to climb, this location simply can’t be beat.

Fully renovated in 2018 by a top Sayulita architect, and brought to life with professional interior design adding warmth and contemporary Mexican finishes. Sensitive to the environment and the growing burden being placed on Sayulita’s infrastructure, a complex, 18-panel solar array was installed to net zero Villa Dorado’s energy consumption.

Villa Dorado also features open-air living, with the lounging, dining and kitchen spaces open to enjoy the tropical environment making for a truly unique holiday experience. The sleeping and bathroom spaces are fully secured and climate controlled for your ultimate privacy and comfort. In addition, each suite comes complete with beach umbrella, 2 beach chairs and beach towels. Each suite also features its own WiFi.

Villa Dorado consists of 3 separate suites - Dorado A (1 BR), Dorado B (2BR) & Dorado Penthouse. These suites can be rented individually or together to comfortably accommodate 10 people. If you require more space, immediately next door, Villa Robalo, also consisting of 3 separate suites, can be rented as well to accommodate 20 people, HERE.

A great choice! Will return
I booked the Dorado PH a couple months ahead of my stay when I wasn't finding anything inspiring in my normal Sayulita travel budget. It was worth it! 

The indoor/outdoor layout is perfect for that open relaxed feel with the option to close off the sleep area completely with AC, fans, and blackout curtains at night. The place is kept very clean with updated furnishings. I found it easy to want to spend hours just hanging out there reading, listening to the birds, and relaxing.

I spent one of the days alternating between private sunbathing on the rooftop terrace and ocean swims since the beach was literally footsteps from the door. I started ocean swimming first thing in the morning when the beaches were nearly empty and the location made this so easy to do.

The nearby restaurants and food stands gave easy access to everything I could want. A quick stop at Terrenal on my way into town also gave me some organic provisions for the well-stocked, easily usable kitchen.

In terms of noise, it is more lively than other north end spots I’ve stayed (live music across the street) but things did quiet down by 10 or 11 and with doors and windows shut for sleep, I had no issues and I am on the sensitive side with sounds at night. A person could easily sleep with fans on and windows open if that was their thing.

I found the place as a whole to be very tranquil while still feeling connected to life around me… happening at times, peaceful overall, and not too remote. It is predominantly filled with families with children, but I felt welcomed being there solo.

The staff was helpful with any requests and booking process and communications with Eric were easy.

In all, I loved it and was so glad I made the choice.

Would absolutely stay here again!
Wonderful spot on a quiet street just steps to the pool and beach. Fantastic hosts, Noah took care of us at checkin, super responsive and helpful. Beautiful condo, comfortable bed and furnishings and great roof top deck. Great restaurants within steps. Quick walk over the bridge to the busy, touristy part of town. Really nice to retreat to the quiet north side, or don’t cross the bridge at all. Would absolutely stay here again.

Great place and location!
Villa Dorado is a penthouse condo located in a very peaceful complex right on the beach. There’s a private rooftop for sunbathing and views, and the open-air kitchen/living area is great for lounging. The bedroom is very comfortable and has AC. The only drawback is that it takes the shower quite awhile to produce hot water, which may or may not be an issue for some ppl. Less than a 10 min walk to town, so close enough to enjoy and far enough to feel peace and quiet. Also there is direct beach access and they provide beach towels and chairs. Overall great place and location!

Beautiful. Book it!
What a beautiful place in a lovely location! The apartment is quite nice. The main room/kitchen is open air but private at the same time. The bedroom & bathroom are behind a locked door & are air conditioned which is helpful on a hot Sayulita day. Eric and Noah were super responsive and friendly. Great hosts! A couple of notes for Americans and older travelers. One, the city sewer system can’t handle toilet paper so it gets deposited in a garbage can. We experienced some odor but the place is cleaned most days so it wasn’t terrible. Two, while the apartment is in a gated area, there is no front door. The apartment is on the third floor & fairly private. We felt quite safe.Third, for older travelers, there are a lot of stairs, all of which are concrete. While the architecture is striking, the stairs could be a falling hazard for older folks. Did I mention the awesome roof deck?! Up a set of concrete stairs is a private deck with views of the beach, ocean, and hills. Beautiful. Book it!

Can't wait to come back!
This place was amazing! The rooftop is great, loved the open air kitchen and living space too. We cooked each morning in the amazing kitchen and Eric and his team provided great recommendations for restaurants, bars, markets, etc. They even provided transportation (at a cost) to our next destination since Ubers aren’t always available in Sayulita.
Seriously can’t wait to come back. Thanks again Eric and team!
