this is a lovely Casa, beautiful sculptures and tiles everywhere. Lin and Jim are very gracious hosts and most helpful in navigating the area. we stayed in the casita studio which is a beautiful room, full of whimsy. the beach is beautiful, the ocean is calm, many restaurants on the beach. Great location. Will be returning next year. highly recommend.

Casa Contenta is a perfectly located beach-front property on the quiet southern end of Los Ayala. We found our Garden Casita was just as advertised, and we couldn't have been happier! We often enjoyed our morning coffee on the lawn overlooking the beach, when not sitting at our private garden terrace. Our 10-day stay flew by and we were sad to leave. A lovely place to stay!

Very welcoming and helpful hosts. A quiet and relaxing stay in a Mexican themed property set in lovely gardens on a great beach. We will return again

Beautiful multi unit homes with loving artistic touches everywhere you look. Linda and Jim where fantastic hosts and looked after any questions or issues immediately. Located right on the beach, the property is safe and secure, and is kept very well maintained and clean. They did have a couple of dogs that were being sheltered until new homes could be found for them. They were occasionally a little noisy but not a big deal. It was very peaceful and pleasant to stay there and we would definitely consider returning.

We were in the Casita for one delightful month (November), and during this time there were few other guests. It felt as though we were in a private club.
The development of the property is a delight. The co-ordination, decor and finishing touches are eclectic and quirky, but very effective.This is truly a unique and ideal holiday spot.
Samuel and Marisella were extremly helpful and accomodating . I apologize for torturing them with my fractured Spanish.
I would highly recommend Casa Contenta to anyone looking for a quiet and restful stay on the beach.
The only minor negative comment I have is that the WiFi needs upgrading somehow. Service has limited coverage throughout the property and is sometimes sporadic
Overall, a pleasurable experience, and I hope to return.

A more spectacular introduction to the Nayarit could not be imagined!
Lin and James are great Los Ayala and area ambassadors. And, they are the quintessential hosts; so helpful, kind and casually professional. They personally model how best to enjoy the optimal holiday/retirement lifestyle. Moreover, they truly model how successfully one can embrace the local culture and become active members of and a real credit to their welcoming community (of people and dogs alike).
Their perfect mini-resort is so perfectly positioned on the perfect soft sand beach. Their stunningly appointed suite(s) so completely relaxing, immediately became our private retreat in their idyllic oasis. Our perfect holiday days there began immediately, continued without a care... and ended all too soon.
Everything you truly need to feed your soul is right there at Sunset Casa. Anything you may desire to satisfy your appetite or pamper your self is there too... or only scant minutes away.
We are already planning to return with family and friends. As soon as we can we hope to be Lin and James’s guests... or perhaps someday soon... their neighbours!

This casita and the surrounding units are truly works of art. The hosts and beach are fantastic. However, lacking A/C and cross-ventilation of ocean breezes, our inside unit was too hot and humid for our aging body thermostats.
