Beautiful view. Great pool.

We had an amazing stay at Karin's place in Sayulita! The location couldn't be better—just steps from the beach, with beautiful ocean views and incredible sunsets every evening. The home was spacious and comfortable for our group of four adults and two young children. Our kids absolutely loved it and are already asking when we can come back. The golf cart was a fantastic bonus and made getting around Sayulita easy and fun. Karin was an exceptional host—friendly, responsive, and always quick to answer every little question we had throughout our stay. We really appreciated her attentiveness and local recommendations. If you're looking for a beautiful beach getaway with a perfect location, stunning views, and a wonderful host, we highly recommend Karin's place. We would happily stay here again!

What a beautiful condo and location this is! The layout worked perfectly for our family, as our daughter, her husband and 2-year-old had the top floor bedroom/bath and fabulous outdoor patio space (which we shared for dinners & lounging), so it gave them their own 'space' while we still had plenty on the main floor, with us and our son each having our own bedrooms & baths, a spacious kitchen & living room, plus another patio as well. It was well-stocked, clean, close to the beach, and just a short walk to everything you need! And the day we stocked up on groceries, we were able to use the golf cart, so that was nice. The views are stunning, the patios are lovely - we just really enjoyed this 'home away from home'! Karin was super responsive and helpful as well. I'd go right back here if I came back to Sayulita!!

The condo was perfect for our family of 6. The place was spotless. We loved the view of the ocean from the terrace, even saw a few whales in the bay! The infinity pool was wonderful, we used it most days. Enjoyed the variety of birds near our lodging. Location was walkable to the beach and restaurants. Or for the older folks, renting the golf cart is a great option. Finally, our hosts, Karin and Pedro, were very friendly and responsive whenever we reached out for help. I definitely recommend this rental, you won’t be disappointed!

We loved Karin’s beautiful condo in Sayulita. Exactly as described, extremely well appointed and clean, amazing outdoor kitchen and patio area, close to the quiet area of the beach and walking distance to town, shops, restaurants, yoga, etc. We rented a golf cart which I would consider optional if you are up for a short walk for amenities. Karin was extremely communicative as needed and gave many details which helped make everything go smoothly. Would be lucky to return.

This condo was lovely, it had everything we needed. It's up on a steep hill, and most of the condos in this area will be, and we enjoy walking and getting exercise, so it was fine for us, but might be an issue for people not able to navigate a lot of steep stairs. The view was nice to have out west at the ocean, and east looking at the hillside for sunrises. The pictures online were very accurate to what you see in person, which we really appreciate since some places we've stayed at, the pictures are much nicer and the place looks run down. Karin's condo was clean, and very comfortable.The upper terrace was so nice to relax on and get a breeze blowing through. It's quieter being North of downtown but we still heard the occasional loud scooter and a few nights of loud partiers in nearby houses, so bring earplugs if you are sensitive to sounds. Overall, a great location, just a block from the beach. Karin was a good communicator and helped out quickly with a couple issues we encountered.

Our stay at Karin and Pedro’s home was fantastic. Their place is close enough to town to be able to walk, but far enough away to feel quiet and more chill. The home is completely set up for visitors including young children. Our daughters loved their bedroom with two twin beds and the colourful decor. The bedrooms and the living area each have an AC unit to keep cool. The outdoor space (especially the rooftop patio) is amazing. We ate breakfast up there each morning and spent most evenings after the kids went to bed relaxing on the comfy patio furniture. We had use of the golf cart during our stay which was super helpful when convincing the kids to head back into town for the second or third time of the day (ha ha). It’s really fun ripping around town in “Buggy”, as we so fondly called it. Karin and Pedro were very responsive and accommodating throughout our visit.

We really enjoyed our time at Karins apartment. It's situated on the north side of the town which is quieter with a lovely beach (only five minutes walk). We were lucky enough to visit the Turtle Sanctuary and experience the hatchling turtles run into the ocean, which felt incredibly special. The kitchen was very well-supplied with everything you could ever need. Everything clean, tidy and comfortable. Our beds and linen was of high quality and we had plenty of space. We particularly liked the roof terrace with spectacular views and comfortable seating plus outdoor kitchen. Its very warm in Sayulita in October so we were very thankful for air conditioning, ceiling fans and also parasols for the beach if needed. We highly recommend staying at Karins apartment!

Really enjoyed our stay. We are a family of four with two teenage kids. The pool was a great way to spend some of our time and time- it was not busy at all. We loved that it’s a little out of town, still walkable to some great restaurants, coffee, and bars but it was quiet and peaceful. The beach was very close and in our opinion it was nicer than even the main beach in town because it wasn’t too loud or chaotic. Karin was a great host- very helpful and responsive and even gave us some great tips to prepare for our visit. I would recommend renting the golf cart they have available. It made the drive into town super easy and was a fun part of our experience.

We had an amazing, unforgettable time at Casa Colorado. Karin offered a perfect balance of attentiveness and responsiveness while still being very laid-back and hands off. The condo has a great floor plan with a lot of privacy throughout, separate spaces for everyone, a perfectly appointed kitchen, and all the amenities and little touches that anyone could ask for. The location, north of town, very walkable to everywhere, including a spectacular beach, is ideal. Great pool with great views. Well maintained grounds, cool tennis court. Golf cart is legit, offering plenty of street cred and super practicality. Overall, we wish we could give more than five stars and we sure hope we can come back!

This is a wonderful place to stay. The ideal Sayulita condo and location for a family, steps away from the peaceful north end of the beach (but not so quiet that you can't still get a smoothie or a margarita right there)! Restaurants and shops are a short walk away, and the condo comes with a golf cart you can rent for a reasonable extra fee for longer trips to the other end of town. The views are as stunning and the furnishings are as comfortable, clean, and pretty as in the photos. The host and her husband were super helpful and responded right away to all of our questions. We couldn't have been happier with them and the rental.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Karin's beautiful place in Sayulita! The kids enjoyed the space and the pool, my fiance and I enjoyed the sound of the waves at night, and his mom agreed it was a beautiful place. We did have a couple of bumps in the road -- there was a crew working on power lines nearby, which left us out of power and water for a few hours (& shorted the coffee maker!), and our rented golf cart wouldn't start while we were out on the town -- but Karin was always SUPER responsive and helpful. I really appreciated her as a host! You can definitely walk to the beach and the city center very easily; I recommend a golf cart if traveling with someone with limited mobility. This is the first time I traveled with my fiance and his kiddos to an AirBnB, and it was a great first experience as a group. The kids said they'd love to come back, and one of the hard-to-please teens said his only complaint was that his bed was really firm. :) Thanks for a great stay, Karin!

This is an incredible place to stay! Overall bVery clean, has a well appointed kitchen, is spacious and comfortable. The several outside spaces are varied and provide a place for everyone … private, sunny, cozy, shady, beautiful views. Loved the outdoor shower! The pool area is clean and accessible. The beach, just across the street is a quick walk and a beautiful, quiet and great spot for swimming. The north end of Sayulita is a bit quieter and still has a lot to offer. Highly recommend!!

Had an amazing stay. To start, the location was very nice, quieter part of the town but easily walkable to anything you need and good food nearby. The condo was lovely and the pool and place has amazing views of the bay. We were all working during the week and had no problems with the wifi!

Our family had a wonderful stay and Karin was fantastic.

Karin was an incredibly responsive host. She was quick to solve anything that came up and her communication was clear. Could not recommend her enough - and she was helpful in recommendations for golf cart rental, chef, etc. Place was perfect for our 3 adults, 1 kid, and 1 baby. Pool was pretty much ours the entire time. Rented a golf cart which in the summer heat I would say was absolutely necessary to get to swimmable beach and town. Way too hot and far to walk with a younger crew - or just without being incredibly sweaty. But the place is clean, incredibly well appointed, comfortable, and the AC works well. Would definitely want to stay here again in a trip back to Sayulita.

Excellent host

The place is beautiful and clean, great location. Also beautiful view of ocean. Only issue was ran out of water around 9pm. It was back by 1am. The third bedroom is located outside of main house on roof. It does have A/C but he the bathroom has no A/C and the shower is outside on roof in view of neighbors. So the couple staying in that bedroom has to use bathroom downstairs in the house .

Host Response

Hi Scott, Yes, sorry about the water it was a municipality issue throughout the town of Sayulita. You are right the third floor bathroom does not have A/C but there is definitely privacy while in the shower--no one can see in as it's surround by three high walls. There are towels and hooks on the pathway out to grab your towel before coming into any view of far away houses.

Karin is a remarkable host - super friendly, quick to respond, helpful prior to and during our stay. We had 5 total guests at the place but a 6th would have been comfortably accomodated. The location, for us, was absolutely perfect - a bit secluded but not overly so. A short walk to the ocean and, for us, not a problem to walk into the center of town and back. The walk up the stairs to the place is a bit of work so if that is an issue you would want to rent a golf cart. The house was beautiful and very clean and well appointed. We found everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Kitchen appliances, dishes, pots, pans, cutting boards, etc. Bedrooms and bathrooms also well taken care of. We made quite a lot of use of the second story balcony - great place for happy hour! The second story bedroom is quite fantastic as well. Beautiful views of the sea. Quiet at night. The place has large jugs of bottled water so there were no issues in that regard either! Great place and host!

We loved our stay here! The location was perfect. Close enough to walk to town and the beach but far enough to get away from the busy town. Although we walked to town several times we did rent a golf cart which I suggest doing since we went to town several times a day. Also to get to the quieter beach you will want to have a cart. Karin was great as well! She was very helpful and quick to respond. I would definitely stay here again!

Great spot! Upper deck is a great private lounging/eating area with fantastic views. The bedroom up there is fantastic and great spot to fall asleep to the crashing waves. We spent a lot of time up there when we were not at the beach or the pool. The pool and grounds are very well maintained. The unit has everything you need. Well stocked. 5 gallon water system, with multiple bottles made drinking/cooking water very easy vs. hauling in your own. Good set up for small kids. It has a handful of kids chairs which made lunch around the low coffee table on the main floor easy. We liked the location on the north beach, which is less crowded than closer to town. But still a short walk to town. We rented a golf cart which made it even easier for the quick trips to town, markets or mini supers. Karin communicated everything clearly and answered any questions we had immediately. Highly recommended!!!

Outstanding stay at Karin and Pedro's condo. Lovely set-up with plenty of space, everything was clean, kitchen well stocked, air conditioning and fans were perfect. Highly recommend a stay here. We didn't need a golf cart. The beach and town are easily walkable and there are plenty of places to eat nearby. The north side location is ideal -- close to everything yet quieter than the crowded south side. Karin and Pedro were quick to answer our questions and made recommendations for transport. They were terrific hosts.

A beautiful and immaculate oasis in an equally beautiful and magical town! I resoundingly agree with all of the other amazingly positive reviews about this unit! The location is stunning. The views are incredible and the unit has everything you could imagine that you would need and more. Check-in was very easy and there were instructions for almost everything. Karin, the host, was incredibly responsive and very helpful with making recommendations. As others have said, there is filtered water provided so you don’t need to use up a lot of plastic water bottles. There are plenty of towels, clean sheets and extra bedding. The view from the top floor unit is out of control! The fans and great AC kept us comfortable even on the warmest days. If I were to come up with a negative it would be that the mattresses were a little too firm for our taste. The pool is amazing and the grounds are incredibly clean and well-maintained. The location of the unit is close enough to town to be walkable but far enough away to still be very quiet. I would definitely stay in this unit again and would wholeheartedly recommend it to friends and family alike.

Karin’s place is absolutely a perfect place to stay in Sayulita if you appreciate stunning views, a peaceful and lush surrounding and being able to retreat to a clam oasis after spending the day or evening in town which is a fun and short walk. We appreciated the pristine pool, beautiful grounds, private and peaceful balconies, and very well appointed casa. Perfect for 2-3 couples or a family. We couldn’t have loved our stay more and those who choose to stay here will be so glad they did. Bring your yoga mat or rent one and try the rose room for yoga and or delicious breakfast or brunch, juice, smoothie, tea or coffee. Suenos a newer place in town for dinner is stunning and not to be missed!

This place is beautiful inside and out. The views really are as good as the pictures show. We loved the location. Great walking distance to town- out of the busyness and noise but not too far to feel inconvenient. There's a great coffee shop just down the street. Karin was excellent in answering our questions before and during our stay. Lots of great tips and suggestions for food and activities. The house is well stocked with everything you'd need and beautifully decorated. There's even beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys available. The pool is a great spot to relax- a little chilly in February but not too cold to enjoy. The beds were a little too firm for us but might be just right for others. The bedding and linens were excellent though. We'd love to return and stay longer next time.

Casa Colorado is a beautiful location. All of the views from the condo, (Ocean, Mountains, Town), were amazing. We could see whales breaching and the sound of the ocean waves crashing on the beach were wonderful to fall asleep to. The walk to the beach is only about 2 blocks and the walk to town is very easy too. Having a golf cart was fun for daily travel around town. The location is GREAT.....just close enough to town to walk it, with plenty of restaurant and market options close by too. Highly recommend staying here if you get the chance.

Amazing and beyond every expectation!

Hands down the best location in Sayulita. The rooftop is next level. Outdoor shower and kitchen - Enough said. The view is outstanding. The sound of the waves was mesmerizing. Karin was amazing. My friends and I had the most incredible Christmas and New Years. What a way to bring in 2022. Three weeks was not enough. Don’t hesitate to rent this spot. Trust me! And thank you Karin for sharing this little piece of paradise. I can see why so many call it Stayulita. Much love.

Karin's listing was fantastic! It was definitely one of those rare travel gems that are better than the pictures. Our family of two couples had a great time on our first trip to Sayulita. The north side, where this is located, is definitely the nicest part of town - just close enough, yet far from the noise of town. For us, we were super grateful we ordered a golf cart, which Karin helped us with before we arrived. Karin's recommendations for Airport transfers worked out great also. For food, you must try the Rose Room yoga coffee shop (and the yoga class!) in the mornings, walking distance to the house. We also loved La Rustica in town for dinner, along with Achara, Rose's, Marcolina Pasta Vino. We made most reservations easily on Whatsapp. Whatever you end up doing for fun in Sayulita, you will absolutely love it and love Karins place. :) Can't wait to go back soon.

We had a fabulous time at Karin’s condo - the pictures do not do it justice!!! The views are phenomenal, the AC works very well, beds are extremely comfy and there are tons of beach items to use. The pool is amazing and the outdoor shower is fantastic!!

Wow! What a week. Karins home is absolutely perfect. Close enough to town to not miss out, far enough away to be a little quiet. Sunsets at the pool are not to be missed. North beaches are so close and so relaxing.

We loved our stay at Casa Colorado. For our family of 5 and Grandma it was the perfect layout. Everything we could have needed was available. Well appointed kitchen, more than enough linens and towel to use, books, games, pool and beach supplies. I loved being able to see the pool from either balcony and the view is amazing. There are air conditioners in each room, and the outdoor shower is a fun change. Karen was helpful, kind and available to answer questions about things around town. Looking forward to coming back, Thank you!

Karin our host was so attentive prior to our trip and during our trip. When she realized our boys were older kids she brought them boogie boards to take to the beach, she helped us navigate the local scene any time we had a question - she was always available. The house itself was really nice, well decorated and clean. The only small hiccup we had was that the sinks in the bathroom weren't working well but when we communicated to Karin she was quick to respond with a solution. Stay here, you won't be disappointed.

When we arrived there was loud constrction noise surrounding the property and construction and construction noise in front of the unit. I was not told about any construction. We left the property immediately. I messaged the host asking for a refund. I was given lots of excuses by the host. I just found out she is refusing to give me any kind of refund. I am out $2,000.00 now. I would never stay at this property or rent from this host.

Host Response

Hello Hadley, Again, I am sorry about the noise when you arrived for your early check in. I was not aware my neighbor was doing any construction during your stay, until you arrived and messaged me. As our thread indicates, I understood your disappointment and offered a full refund if three simple conditions were met: that you leave the place as you found it, that my dates were released by that evening, and that I wasn't responsible for any fees or taxes on this booking. My dates were not released until the next evening. Immediately after you left, I went over to assess the noise, talk to my neighbor, discount the price, and adjust the listing but I couldn't rebook the long weekend because you (or Airbnb) were holding onto the dates. Once they were released the next evening, it was too late to re-book the long weekend through Airbnb, since the HOA has a 4-day minimum. Further, Airbnb fees and Mexican taxes were charged to me for this booking. I felt I acted in good faith, with empathy and understanding on your behalf, and I did exactly as you and Airbnb instructed me to do (to write in our thread about the refund), all while not asking for much in return. It's unfortunate it turned out this way. Best, Karin

Karin is the perfect host! She is prompt in providing information and her willingness to help you with what you need to make your stay enjoyable is exceptional. When you walk into Karin’s condo I guarantee you’ll say wow! The place is an incredible set up. Will sleep six wonderfully in three bedrooms with all of the amenities you desire and so much more. The rooftop terrace, bedroom, and outdoor shower were our favorite. Watching the sunsets every night from that balcony were our moments to cheer and celebrate the culmination of a great day. We especially enjoyed sleeping to the sounds of crashing waves. The condo is located perfectly on the north end of town. It allows for walking to town. We enjoy walking and it’s not such a big trek that we ever felt we needed a golf cart... but if you choose to rent one it’s easy to do and there’s a designated spot to park inside this incredible gated complex. This location also makes going to the northern beach a breeze... walk down the street and then down the path to the beach and hike north.... if you’re adventurous you’ll be rewarded by a beach accessed through a cave (or the jungle if you choose) that’s a mile long and relatively empty. Pack one of the umbrellas, beach chairs, and sand toys Karin has available for you and you’re in for a day at paradise. Thanks again to Karin for letting us enjoy your condo. We will definitely book there again.

Staying at Karin´s place in Sayulita was the best decision I could have ever made before going to this beautiful and magical destination. The property is located in the best part of town in a quiet hill, steps away from the beach. We found the property sparkling clean, with all the amenities one would expect and even more. I would definitely return to the same apartment and highly recommend it to anyone planning to travel to Sayulita. Karin was a great host and our stay at her place surpassed highly our expectations.

Casa Colorado was beautifully appointed, clean, and overall just lovely for our family vacation. Karin is more than a super host, she is a Super Duper Host, answering all our questions promptly and clearly. She helped arrange for a local chef to prepare a birthday dinner which we enjoyed al fresco on the top deck. Karin's suggestions regarding shopping and golf cart rental helped make our Sayluita stay so very special!

Wow! This place and this host are amazing. Great space for our group of 3 adults and an 18 month old. They had a baby gate for the inside stairs and made sure the high chair and pack and play were set up when we arrived. Karin was quick to respond and offered great local tips! The surf instructor she recommended was top notch! The only down sides were the complex pool was deep and cold (oh well! We hung out at the beach!) and there are a TON of stairs that would be hard if mobility was an issue. That being said I give it 5+ stars and will be hopefully a returning guest!

You know when you book the “perfect” place and build your expectations up, only to arrive and be disappointed? Not here! It really is truly stunning, and even better than it looks in the pictures. We most enjoyed the upstairs lounge, with views of the coast, the outdoor kitchen, and outdoor shower. It’s the kind of spot you tuck away in your bag of gems so you can return again and again. We were there for New Years and although lively and festive, the town never felt overcrowded or obnoxious. Do book golf carts in advance if you want them, though, because they ended up being sold out for our stay. We just walked to the beach and into town with no problems. Karin was a super host and was readily available with local tips and recommendations.

Great spot! Really enjoyed our time at Karin's place!

This place is phenomenal! I booked it for my birthday with 5 friends and they all were WOW'ed with the choice of property. It is truly incredible from the view, pool, location to the modern yet charming amenities. Its literally spotless and comes with everything you could need. We hung out in different areas of the condo every evening - loved the 2 patios!! We cooked alot in the suite, grilled fresh skewered prawns and mixed drinks on the rooftop for sunset. YOU NEED TO STAY HERE. 10/10 +Karin responded immediately to our messages- excellent hospitality! Gracias.

Karin is an outstanding host. I've stayed in many Airbnbs across the world and Karin stands out as the best host I've had by far. The place is even better than pictured. It's absolutely stunning. Tons of thoughtful touches. The rooftop bedroom is so cool. She's quick to respond, incredibly helpful, kind, caring, all the above. Highly recommend. 100% would stay again.

Thanks for your kind words....and for being such a great guest as well!
