Important Details
Casa Nicoya is built into a hillside and arranged across multiple levels. The Main House has two floors connected by stairs, with additional stairs leading down to the pool and The Casita below it.
The walk to town takes approximately five minutes via the staircase route or slightly longer via the street. Because the property includes numerous stairs, it may not be suitable for guests who have difficulty using them. The views and central location make the climb worthwhile.
Like most homes in Sayulita, Casa Nicoya is surrounded by the sounds of the jungle. Birds, roosters, and other wildlife may be heard at sunrise. Guests who are sensitive to noise may wish to use a floor fan for white noise.
Wildlife sightings are common. You may see iguanas in the trees, geckos on the ceilings, and occasional spiders. Geckos help control smaller insects, including mosquitoes, and should not be harmed. Insects are a natural part of the jungle environment, and pest control is used only when necessary.
Several bottles of insect repellent are provided. Scorpions are rare but possible, so guests are advised to wear flip-flops when walking around and to leave shoes turned upside down.
The property is not recommended for children under 12 because it has several unguarded ledges, numerous stone stairs, and a pool without a lifeguard.

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Nicoya! The house was beautiful, clean, and very comfortable—everything we needed for a great trip. Lisa was an amazing host: responsive, welcoming, and so helpful throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again.

This Airbnb was a perfect fit for my group of 8. It’s incredibly beautiful and has all the amenities you need. It’s well stocked and has amazing views of the town and beach. It is very close to action albeit up a very steep hill, but that was not an issue for my group. Carlos, the property manager, was incredibly responsive and was willing to go out of his way to accommodate any questions and requests we had. After our trip was over, we all went around and said what our favorite thing was and this Airbnb was at the top of almost everyone’s list!

I can't say enough about how beautiful this place really is. Perfect location (we actually loved the steep stairs, but if you have folks who aren't mobile, I can imagine this NOT being the place for you). We all were very happy with how our legs felt about this trip. Cannot recommend it enough. The pool was fantastic.. I recommend the home cooked meal.
