So, it starts with Tracey. Tracey is the resident manager and she is awesome. Kind, sincere, and very available to address questions and recommend "best places for ___." The place itself: charming, super clean and well-presented, comfortable (great beds, much better than others in MX I have had to deal with), no issues with the tap water (go ahead, drink from the tap - yeeeeahh! we did, no problem!), and ceiling fans, lots of windows and the nice breeze keep it comfy. Water pressure fine, shower is good (no reason to over-shower if you go to the beach and swim in the ocean!). Did I mention that this casa is clean?? And plenty of room for a family of 3 or 4. Wifi? Fast and reliable! And in terms of noise, really it's very quiet compared to the places right in town. You do faintly hear the live music from the Plaza bars, but it wasn't anything that kept me awake. If I were trying to sleep at 1am right in town, yeah, totally another story. Whew. Yes, there's the occasional barking dog(s), and plenty roosters yelling at each other and making sure YOU know it's 6 (or 5) am, but hey, it's Mexico. Get over it. One especially awesome thing: location is within around 10 minutes walking distance of the Los Muertos beach. Love that beach! Way better than the main Sayulita beach. This beach is much more scenic, sincere and welcoming. And just the walk to/from is awesome. I am having serious withdrawals. What else - oh, the food in Sayulita, I thought I ate a lot, but I actually LOST weight! Must eat at: Mary's (get the fish bowl, huge & healthy! And their fish tacos are bomb!). Great burgers and bulldogs (cervezaritas) and margaritas at Monchi's. Also the combo platter at Carmelita's, and yes, do have breakfast at Choco Banana, But if you want to make your own breakfast at home, no problem, such as scrambled eggs and chorizo, buy it from the town carniceria (their chorizo is terrific, tons of flavor, not greasy, and not TOO spicy!). Then head right to the beach! Alas Blanca is the local mini-super of choice - great selection of everything, and affordable, and friendly folks! If you carry-on your vacation stuffs, it's easy to take the local bus here from PVR, just 35 pesos/pax (as of now), 'bout an hour & 10 minutes bus ride, then walk to Casa Solana from the bus stop (around 15 mins walk). I would stay at this place during the high season again ANYTIME! Great value. This rental is a no-brainer. I'll be back.

I had such a lovely surprise when I arrived at Casa Solana in Sayulita. Two terases with open wide opening doors that make you fieel as if you were outside. The main terrase is such a lovely place to relax and enjoy drinks or meals, alone or with a group of friends. I used to do jogging almost everyday, as the house is only a few minutes of isolared jungle paths where you can feel as close to nature as possible. The beaches Playa de los muertos, Patzcuarito and Carricitos are only a few minutes away. I used to spend every evenig at these isolated beaches as the main beach was kind of crowded for me The best sunsets are at Playa Carricitos and if you want to roll on a black beach sand, Playa Pascuaritos is the place to go...Tracey is such a lovely person and she made us feel as if we were at home...I would highly recommend this place. Hope to come back to Sayulita and stay at Casa Solana again..
