The space

CASA BRAVA has welcomed hundreds of guests through its doors since 2011. We purchased the house in March 2023 and are now the new owners of this amazing tropical getaway. If you have stayed at Brava before you will also appreciate that Laura, the house manager, continues to run the day-to-day operations of the house without skipping a beat.

Casa Brava is a stunning modern home perched high above the laid-back surf town of Sayulita. Its sweeping panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, the jungle, and the city are simply breathtaking! And the spectacular sunsets from the roof, the decks, the pool or the hammocks are sure to stay etched in your memory forever!

Casa Brava consists of 3 units and can accommodate a total of 10 people should you wish to rent the entire property.
- MAIN HOUSE (2 bedrooms; king beds, 2 bathrooms, private infinity pool)
- GUEST HOUSE (1 bedroom; king bed and queen air mattress, 1 bathroom, private plunge pool)
- STUDIO (2-story loft; king bed and twin air mattress, 1 bathroom, private balcony)

When you decide to break free from the magnetic pull of this tropical oasis you’ll discover that it’s only a 10 minute walk into town or to the beach where plenty of eating, drinking, shopping, surfing and people-watching options await.

Our English-speaking manager will answer your questions and help with all of your needs. Let us arrange transportation from the airport. Want to have a private cook come in to prepare Mexican meals one or two days that you are there? Or have a masseur set up a table on our terrace for an ocean view massage? These and even private yoga instruction can easily be arranged. Please email with any questions.

The home was designed by a well known Mexican architect in true contemporary style using concrete and entire walls of glass with wonderful inside/outside living areas. Handcrafted custom Parota wood louvered doors open onto decks, patios, the garden and pool area. Every individual detail was carefully chosen to complement and enhance the unique and comfortable design, such as the onyx walls, honed granite counters, and custom made furniture. Whether the perfect spot to relax is in one of the king sized beds featuring high thread count Egyptian cotton sheets, the hammocks or the chaise lounges, that is entirely up to you to decide. If you can't completely leave the outside world behind, there is super fast Wi-fi throughout.

Guest access

The house is totally private. It has exclusive use of its own infinity pool, plunge pool and walled garden

Other things to note:

A car isn't necessary but lots of folks do prefer to have a car or rent a golf cart while at the house. You can always get a $5 taxi to the house, day or night... they are waiting on the plaza. Ask us to help arrange transportation from the airport or we really like Sixt Car rental. During the summer months, roads can get slippery in the rain, so golf carts or 4-wheel drive are best. For golf carts, our renters really like Gaby Golf Carts.

It's just a 10-minute walk to both the plaza and the beach but returning home you'll have a very steep hill for the last block so give yourself a couple of extra minutes for that:)

It is customary in Mexico to leave the staff a tip when you leave. We suggest $5 - $10 per day and all tips are shared.

Additionally, Casa Brava can be rented as a 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom as well as the 1 bedroom Guesthouse.
