2 adults, 2 young teenagers (12,14). I feel so lucky to have been able to stay at Casa Rincon. I had made prior reservations at a "mega resort" but knew it wasn't the right fit for my family. At a moment's notice, this home became available for our family. I quickly cancelled the resort res and booked Casa Rincon. This place truely is like a slice of heaven. My family was beyond happy with the home and the location. Walking right off the home property to the beach for walking, shell seaking, surfing, sea kyaking, SUP, never a dull moment. We rented a car so we had access to the lovely town of (10 min) La Cruz for fine dining or local street tacos. Very close to Punta de Mita for a more touristy town and to plan excursions. (10min). The staff at the home (housekeeping, cooks, caretaker) were a huge plus and all were very helpful, trustworthy, and delightful to speak Spanish/English with and learn from. The home is completely equipped with lovely linens, beautiful kitchenware/dishes; really more than you need. 30 min from the airport....far enough away but close enough also. The sea wall/back deck was a wonderful place to relax with a cup of coffee or later in the day, margaritas, while our kids searched for sea life and shells. Games, cards, a pool, and a fabulous ping-pong table. This was probably one of the best vacations my family has ever taken and I truly feel that Casa Rincon was a big part of the success. We are so grateful.

Wonderful 1 week vacation spot for our 4 families with small children. Gorgeous location, all amenities available, perfect beach location. Special shout out to the in house staff that provided all services - cooking, cleaning etc. Cannot recommend highly enough!

We were 12 women all enjoying our 50th birthday celebration at Casa Rincon! To say it was incredible is an understatement! Perfectly appointed in every way- from our airport pick ups to the the garlic coconut shrimp- Barbara left no detail untouched! Thank you for providing the best get-away vacation home and thank you for sharing your incredible staff with us! We all wanted to take Luis home with us!

What an amazing place in this world! Casa Rincon is the perfect place to stay whatever your needs! My husband and I stayed in Casa Rinconsita, the magical round house and enjoyed sea views and sea breeze all day long. Its simply beautiful. We opted for Playa Del Burros so that we could surf, and the Casa provided everything we needed like surf board rentals, reef booties, and of course direct access to the break just a few steps away. We couldn't have asked for more! Luis, Pablo and Barbara went above our expectations to ensure that we had the perfect getaway and we really felt looked after and very welcomed to this outstanding home. We don't usually visit the same places twice, but we will definitely be going back to Casa Rinconsita!

We could not have asked for a more idyllic vacation than the one we had at Casa Rincon. We planned to spend time visiting Sayulita and Punta Mita but Casa Rincon was so lovely and relaxing that we barely ended up leaving the house! The location was absolutely perfect, the beach practically private, the home lovely and the staff beyond helpful. We can't wait to go back!

We had the absolute pleasure of staying at this amazing paradise and couldn't have been happier with our location. The compound of 5 houses are well laid out, providing privacy for everyone. The stunning location right ON the beach is second to none; truly spectacular. The beauty of Casa Rincon is only surpassed by the amazing people who work there; Luis goes above and beyond at every turn and is a true gem. Before we left we were already making plans to return next year.

We've been coming to Casa Rincon for 5 years now. We took our honeymoon in Rinconcito (the enchanting 2-story casita right on the beach) in 2009, and we can't stop coming back! Barbara and her staff are so warm, courteous, talented and helpful, and their knowledge of local food and incredible cooking always pushes our visits over the top. We often end up eating better at home than at any of the (many excellent) restaurants and resorts in the area! This time we had our whole family, ranging from the gramps all the way down to our newest 2 yr old additions - for our 5 year wedding anniversary. Everyone had an absolutely fabulous time and there was something for everyone! From chilling out in the pool, to getting a massage under the grand palapa, to shopping for fresh seafood nearby, to surfing right out front (and much much more), Casa Rincon and it's surrounding Nayarit area are a totally fantastic family destination. Guaranteed new favorite! We can't recommend this property highly enough! Six stars!!!

We have now stayed at Casa Rincon and all the surrounding dwellings on this property, two years in a row. Both years we have vacationed here with two other families (14 people total, kids and adults). We are avid surfers and beach lovers and this property is absolute perfection for us. The surf break is right in front of the house, so it offers constant entertainment and whoops for all surfers of all abilities. The beach is private, secluded and lovely. The houses are clean, comfortable and so inviting whether you are nesting with a good book, watching a movie, or whooping it up with some friends and tequila! The pool is lovely and the grounds are gorgeous. The caretaker and his wife are delightful and cook amazing food! We had them cook every single night for us and we ate under the palappa with white lights and ocean breezes- paradise. It doesn't get any better than this place...

I rented Casa Rincon and the neighboring Casa Selvatica for a small family wedding. Casa Rincon is the most amazing, even magical place I have ever rented. The property is perfect for large groups and family's. Everyone is together in one gorgeous location but still has there own space. The actual property almost reminded us of a luxurious Swiss Family Robison location with the jungle and beach and all the cute little casitas. Everyone was so blown away by the beauty and creative design of the property. Luis and Alicia are nothing short of amazing. They created huge dinners two nights in a row for our group and they were no doubt the best meals we had the whole trip. Luis, even with limited English, couldn't be more sweet and helpful. He made a huge bonfire for us one night and kept the property so tidy the whole time. The dogs that live on the property couldn't be sweeter, everyone loved them! We had originally planned to have this family wedding in Sayulita but after experiencing Punt del Burro I feel like I'm in on a well kept secret. This place is beyond perfect!

To celebrate my (Gramzie's) birthday and ring in the New Year, our family spent 9 wonderful days at Casa Rincon. 13 of us included 5 children ages 1 to 9. Luis is a gem! He and Alicia are two VERY caring special people and so accommodating. My husband loved to accompany Luis to the market. They prepared a wonderful birthday celebration with even a pinata for the children. Pablo, the house manager, was most hospitable and helpful with transportation, car rental, questions, etc. Even the dogs here are super and protective. The children loved their days on the beach in and out of the water. Casa Rincon is on a stretch of beautiful homes and the closet to the water; lots of privacy and a very tranquil spot. Barbara provides lots of beach toys. Our son in law enjoyed the great surfing in this area. We loved the fantastic whale watching, kayaking, body surfing and walks on the beach. 400 yds. down the beach in front of the Palladium Hotel is a tidal pool perfect for the young children. We enjoyed a serene, relaxing time and we would love to return. Thanks Barbara!

Heaven, can't wait to go back! We visited Casa Rincon in January with a group of friends and had the best time. We stayed in the master bedroom in the main house with our 9 month old baby. Our room was perfect. It had the most comfortable king bed with big windows and french doors overlooking the front of the compound and the water. We fell asleep every night to the sound of crashing waves. There was a huge walk in closet that we actually put our daughter's crib in and it worked great. The rest of the house and compound was just as beautiful and meticulously decorated as our room. The staff were another highlight of staying at Casa Rincon. Everyone went above and beyond to be helpful and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We had them cook two meals for us, and they were delicious. I can only hope we are able to go back again to this magical place! Thanks, Barbara, and everyone at Casa Rincon! Emily, Scott and Issa

Our stay could not have been more exquisite! Casa Rincon is a magical place of heaven on Earth! We are already planning our return trip - with many more who want to join us! The villa had everything we could ask for. There was no reason to leave (except to run to the fresh fish market down the road). The staff was incredible - and it was a blast improving my spanish with Luis as he learned more english with me. I wish there was enough space to express how wonderful the experience was! Room enough to spread out, yet gather for meals in the main house if you wish, toys for surfing and kayaking. The lids played ping pong to their hearts content (not to mention the Monopoly marathon game every night)! Snorkeling right outside (bring your own mask, snorkel and fins). Walks on the beach, along with a fire at night! If you go on the beach at night, bring a flashlight and you will find out what all the tracks in the sand are - way cool!! The entire area is a photo bug's dream! This is the place for families and friends to connect, relax and enjoy each other's company with room for privacy! Lastly, I HIGHLY recommend having AT LEAST one meal prepared by Luis and Alicia as it is incredible! The ultimate slice of paradise!!! We look forward to our return!!
