We came back for the third time and so glad we did! Words canât express the magic of Villa Pelicanos. This property is starting to feel like home and canât wait to go back next year. Make sure you have Mariana and Nancy prepare all your meals. They are fabulous hosts and excellent cooks.
Absolutely perfect spot for a large group who also want some personal space
We booked this place for my husbands 50th birthday party. We had 2 different groups of 16 people. We changed our groups 1/2 way through our 10 day stay, and the communication and all the details that they organized went very smoothly. We hired a chef WHO WAS AWESIME AND ALSO HAF A PRIVATE YOGA INSTRUCTOR WHO WAS GREAT AS WELL, Honestly, everything went better then we couldâve hoped.
16 of us gathered at Villa Pelicanos to celebrate not 1 but 2 50th birthdays! Theo, Marianna, Nancy, Javier and Jessie made all our disorganization, organized! Thank you all in making our celebrations magical and memorable!
Dream stay with our family and friends for my husbandâs birthday celebration. Everything was over the top at Villa Pelicanos. Ahead of our stay, Theo went above and beyond to help me make special plans and surprises for our guests and my husband. He ensured we had every detail sorted and created a wonderful experience for us. Mariana was an exceptional chef preparing wonderful meals and was very accommodating. Javier did an excellent job with our shopping and helping us during our stay with any needs. The property is quite special. We enjoyed yoga by the water. We had a really fun fiesta with a mariachi band and created memories to cherish for a lifetime. The one note of caution is to take the rules seriously and keep your villa locked up and valuables put away. Otherwise, you couldnât ask for a more beautiful and special place to stay in Sayulita than here. The owners did a wonderful job and are extremely lucky to have Theo running the property. I would book again for sure!
My family and friends traveled from near and far to be with me to celebrate a milestone birthday. We stayed at Villa Pelicano's and we didn't have a single regret about our choice. The property is magnificent with views of the ocean from every single place you could stand. Mariana/Xavier/Theo and everyone else we encountered was amazing. Would definitely stay here again. Beautiful and relaxing. Exactly what my multigenerational group needed. Thank you, Villa Pelicanos!
I have stayed all over the world and our stay at Villa Pelicanos was one of the absolute best. It is the little things that make a difference, the rooms were wonderful, such comfortable beds, the outdoor showers were amazing, the pool and the gathering spaces were awesome. The whole lay out is perfect for families and our group of 15 and 2 babies had plenty of space to be together and our own personal space to go to when we needed to. Theo was magic, he helped me with all of the planning and everything he recommended was perfect, he is a gem and so great to work with. Mariana and Nancy cooked breakfast and dinner for us every day and it was fabulous, I highly recommend that luxury! The villa is really close to Sayulita, and we loved going into the town every day to shop and hang out, the location is perfect. The views are stunning, I am not sure there is another place with such a perfect view, it was such a magical place to be, I wish we could have stayed longer, and I hope to come back, it is that special.
This is our second time staying at Villa Pellicanos, and each time is better than the last. The pool, the villas, the finishing details, are all gorgeous. You won't regret staying here for one moment.
One negative (and there really aren't any others) is that they really do mean ONLY 18 guests. Period. We had friends staying down the street, and they were very particular about when and how the guests visited. Annoying, as it should be our place for the week, and should feel comfortable, not stressed on vacation. Other than that, I can't recommend this place enough.
Wow! What a place!! Location is perfect and place exceeded all expectations. Perfect for kids and adultsâŠâŠand even 1 senior citizen.
Beaches were great and easily accessible but nothing beats sitting high on the hill at the pool overlooking everything!!
Would highly recommend this property plus any/all extras (meals, yoga, etc.).
We enjoyed our stay very much! Theo was great to communicate with and provided assistance in booking tours. The staff at the villa were wonderful, we hardly knew they were there. Mariana and Nancy prepared delicious meals for us! The property itself is wonderful and immaculate! The pool was perfect for all our kids. Each family having there own villa was great. We could be together but privacy at the same time! We highly recommend this property!
Beautiful Location, close to everything, great for families.
The villas are really beautiful with enough room for everyone to be comfortable. You can easily walk to the beach or in town. The staff was great and the food was really good. Theo was very responsive and great helping with arrangements. The property was very lush and well maintained, would definitely return.
What a gem! Upon our arrival at Villas Pelicanos, I became the booking hero of our family. From the pictures, we knew it was going to be amazing, but in person, this place blew our minds. Even the moody tween in the group used words like, "stunning" and "breathtaking". The true heroes that leveled up our vacation were the staff, from the initial correspondence with Theo during the planning stages to the amazing support staff on-site during our stay. If you're reading reviews and debating whether you should book this place, stop, just book it, and be the next booking hero.
Amazing property in great location - perfect for large family gathering or groups with separate sleeping accommodations and space. Theo and staff were very attentive. Overall a 10/10
Beautiful location in a unique area of Mexico. We enjoyed the privacy of the beautiful property and the fun atmosphere of downtown Sayulita! The staff is amazing. they were able to help us arrange multiple events and prepared delicious authentic Mexican meals. We had a wonderful time
This was the perfect location for our 4 families (including grandparents and kids 10, 9, 8, 8, 7 and 6) to stay for a week.
The beach at the house was our favorite beach, we paddled, snorkeled and floated. Playa Muertos was also a great all ages location and super convenient.
The rooms, the views, the pool were amazing. We had meals prepared by Mariana and Nancy every night. Our breakfast and dinners were all delicious, and they were so accommodating of our dietary needs and our desired service time. It was so convenient and good that we didnât eat out.
Yoga with Nara was wonderful as well.
Theo, Javier, Mariana, Nancy and all were great caretakers.
Mosquito repellent was a must.
We highly recommend!
Villa Pelicanos was perfect for the 20 of us, from a 9-month old infant to the 72 year old grandparents and all those in between. The place is immaculate, had everything we could have wanted or needed, and was staffed by wonderful, friendly folks who were always helpful. Marianaâs cooking was heavenly: we thought we would have her cook every other night but it was so delightful having her and Nancy cook for us that we had them do it every night. Guacamole from heaven! Enchiladas Suissas, Chili Rellenos, tacos, each night we dined like Mexican royalty, and they left a spotless kitchen for our nightly game time. Couldnât have asked for a more perfect vacation. Communication was always quick and easy, and Sayulita is such a lovely place, with beautiful beaches and a welcoming town, that youâd have to be a terrible Scrooge to be anything other than pleased to be there.
Everything was perfect, beautiful home, Amazing staff beautiful home stunning views itâs truly a magical place. Nothing to say other than we were so well taken care of and everything was super organized!
Under new ownership! Since purchasing Pelicanos in 2019, we have untaken an extensive renovation including all new baths, heated pools, upgraded linens. In addition, the grounds have been updated including a beautiful beachside yoga platform with great ocean views and room for 20.
