Our group of 18 was ideal for Villa Pelicanos. We all had our individual space while still having
plenty of places to come together. We loved hanging out at the pool each day.
Theo made traveling and organizing our week so easy. He was a huge help to connect us to all the best vendors in town.
Mariana and Nancy were delightful and made the best food. We still can't decide our favorite dishes as they were all so tasty. The fresh fruit, coffee, juice, and croissants were the ideal way to start the day.
Additionally, Javier was helpful and always available when needed.
The experience and stay at Villa Pelicanos was unlike anything else. We're all looking forward to coming back in the future. If there is availability for Villa Pelicanos, book it!
As we drove through the charming village of Sayulita - we entered the drive to the property and were greeted by property manager Teo, and house manager Javier. They graciously welcomed me and gave me a tour of the property.
With every villa and space I discovered, it was a continual 'OMG' moment, with each view, each area taking my breath away.
The property is massive, pristinely cared for, immaculately clean, peaceful and energetically next level.
The planning prior to the trip was fantastic, with manager Teo giving us exceptional pointers and recommendations for the private chef (Daniel), massage therapists who came on property daily (Nancy amazing), and yoga instructor (Nara) - we designed the getaway as a true retreat for my friends and clients, and glad we did - as we really did not want to leave the property at all.
Marianna (Javier's wife) prepared delicious breakfasts daily for us, and she was so lovely and kind.
We prepared a few meals in their fully equipped kitchen.
The location seems SO remote like you are almost on your own island, however was just a 5 min golf cart ride into town for great shopping, restaurants and the experience of Sayulita.
A piece of my heart was left behind at Villa Pelicanos, and I cannot wait to go back.
Well, from the minute we all stepped on the property, we were left speechless. Everything is gorgeous The kitchen/dining room area, inifnity pool and meeting area/game room are at the top of a hill with a 360 view of the ocean, Sayulita and the jungle. It's like a movie set. then you follow a path to hit all of the casitas. You'll find the main Casita w/ 4 different bedrooms all having a gorgeous view of the ocean and town. then 4 more individual casitas all with a view. So much better than the photos. The architecture is gorgeous and the grounds are expertly maintained w/ flowers blossoming everywhere. We spent most of the 5 days of my vacation just hanging out on the property as it was so relaxing to sit poolside or read in the game room area. We also used Mariana to cook 4 out of the 5 dinners. Her food was always fantastic - we had chicken mole, shrimp enchiladas, fish tacos. We planned the first meal ahead of time and then met with her the first day to plan food the rest of the time. And breakfast is included - every morning she put out coffee, 3 juices, yogurt and granola. Mariana accommodated diet restrictions and even made a gluten free/dairy free carrot cake for my birthday!
The villa was extremely clean and the staff was very friendly. Juan the property manager was always available for help.
The property is about 10 minutes walk to the edge of Sayulita and 20 minutes to the opposite end of town (there's a hotel with a yoga studio there we hit daily and it was a good 20 minute walk.) We never used our car once we landed but I can see why some folks may want to use golf carts. The once criticism I saw of the place is that it is not for folks with any challenges walking -would agree with that - but otherwise the hills were not that challenging. (I am from Seattle though.;)
One concern I had with having 12 people together was whether it would feel like there was enough space for people to hang out or have some alone time without feeling all on top of each other. Well, the property is huge and there was plenty of room to go find a corner to read or lay out.
How often in this age of hype does one have their expectations so grandly exceeded? They were for all of 12 of us!
Very comfortable for 7 couples. With the 8th We doubled up one of the casitas (they have an extra room attached). . So one couple shared a bathroom but was great format for us! Highly recommended!
This was our first visit to the area. . and when we come back we will stay here again for sure!
