Villa Colina in Sayulita is a private, solar-powered ocean-view estate where the beach, the plaza, and the best of town life are just 1½ blocks away. Set in Sayulita’s most sought-after neighborhood, this 3,500 sq ft home was designed by renowned architect Miguel Valverde, the same architect behind an oceanfront home for the President of Mexico. The property is titled, giving buyers a rare combination in Sayulita: a place to call your own, a home with real pedigree, and a business that has already proven itself.
Picture your mornings here. Coffee on an ocean-view veranda, the sound of the town waking up below, and the surf only minutes away on foot. Then picture coming home from the plaza at night to quiet gardens, a glowing heated pool, and the sea breeze moving through folding glass doors that open the living room, dining area, and cook’s kitchen completely to the outdoors.
The layout is made for both privacy and company. Four bedroom suites each have their own ensuite bathroom, and the bedding converts between twin and king/queen configurations, so the house works equally well for a family reunion or a group of friends. The king primary suite has an ocean-view veranda, a custom-tiled bath, and a two-person outdoor tub and shower in its own private garden. A second suite with a full bath sits just off the living room.
The tower wing is a retreat of its own. The first-floor king suite has a private veranda overlooking the ocean and town. Upstairs, the second suite has a soaring 20-foot ceiling, a kitchenette, a sleeping loft, and a large furnished veranda with sweeping ocean, town, and mountain views, plus direct access to the upper palapa.
Outdoor living is the heart of the home. Mature gardens surround a remodeled, heated saline pool with a shallow wading area. Two palapas extend the living space: one poolside with mounted Bluetooth speakers for long afternoons, and one on the upper level with ocean views for sunset. An outdoor pool shower and dedicated storage for beach chairs and surfboards keep every beach day easy.
The details are as impressive as the setting. European-designed soundproof windows and doors in every bedroom, individually controlled A/C in every room, triple-filtered water throughout the house, and high-speed mesh internet across the property make this a home that is comfortable for living, working, and hosting.
As an investment, Villa Colina is an established luxury rental that sleeps up to 10. It has earned more than 225 five-star ratings, the most of any property in Sayulita, and has been named Top 1% of Homes on Airbnb and Vrbo. Over six years it has maintained a 60%+ occupancy rate. It is offered fully furnished and turnkey, including its collection of Mexican art, with future bookings and an experienced housekeeping, gardening, handyman, and pool team already in place. Financials are available to qualified buyers on request.
Titled, turnkey, and steps from the sand, Villa Colina is a home of this size, condition, and location that rarely comes to market in Sayulita.

A Letter from the Owners of Villa Colina
Dear Future Owner,
Hola, and welcome to Villa Colina. We are Eva and Andy Dobrov, and for the past six years this house has been our happy place. Before you make it yours, we wanted to share a little of its story, and ours. When we bought Villa Colina, we fell for what you are probably feeling right now: the views, the light, the easy beauty of Sayulita just a few steps to the beach. We knew it was special. What we didn't know was how much it would come to mean to us, our family, and the many friends we have hosted here.
Villa Colina is more than a beautiful house; it is a work of art. It was designed by renowned architect Miguel Valverde, whose work also includes an oceanfront home for the President of Mexico. The artwork throughout was curated by the home's former owner, an artist, and it gives every room its own character.
Villa Colina has truly been a labor of love. Honestly, caring for it has been the best job I've ever had. I brought my background in marketing to every corner of the property, looking for ways to make each stay a little better and each detail a little more thoughtful. I have always seen my job as keeping Villa Colina authentic while making it extremely comfortable for our guests. Its architecture, its art, and its natural beauty were never things to change, only to frame. We hope you'll feel that the moment you walk in.
Our guests have made this journey a joy. As Superhosts, we set out to give every visitor a beautiful experience, and they have rewarded us with their kind words and their return visits. Today, Villa Colina is the highest-rated property in Sayulita, ranking in the top 1% of rental homes on both Airbnb and Vrbo. Those ratings reflect more than a lovely house. They reflect a place where people celebrate, rest, reconnect with family, and leave wishing they could stay longer. Reading their notes has been one of the great pleasures of our lives. Life brings new chapters. Andy is retiring, our twin sons have recently graduated from university, and the time has come for us to pass Villa Colina on. It is not an easy goodbye, but it is a hopeful one.
We are looking for someone who will love this home the way we have. Whether you plan to welcome guests, keep it as a family retreat, or both, you are inheriting a house with a proven story and a lot of happy memories in its walls.
Thank you for considering Villa Colina. We hope it becomes your happy place, too.
Muchas gracias,
Eva & Andy Dobrov
