House on Tranquil "Gringo Hill"- Casa Paraiso del Pacifico - Central Sayulita

Our two bedroom - three bathroom- house is located above the town of Sayulita on Gringo Hill. This location is a 10 minute walk to the town square and beach - out of the noise and congestion of staying in town or on the beach. Our home has a panoramic view of the ocean from the upper sundeck. It has a pool and large veranda for relaxing and enjoying the cool breezes that Gringo Hill provides. Our home has a large master bedroom with a king sized bed. The master bath has a walk-in shower and a Jacuzzi soaking tub. The guest bedroom has a king size bed with a set of bunk beds. This includes a bathroom with a walk-in shower.
There is a guest bathroom off the living room for convenience.
Our home has a completely furnished kitchen with very nice appliances. All dishware, cooking utensils, and accessories are of good quality. In the kitchen, you will find most items you need to cook as big or small as you like. Adjoining the kitchen and living area, there is a breakfast bar for informal meals or just to talk and visit while the cook is in the kitchen. Behind the kitchen, we have a laundry room with both washer and dryer.

Most of our guests, take their meals on the veranda where we have a nice all weather dining table and chairs. The veranda overlooks the swimming pool and gardens. On the veranda, you will find additional seating areas which are great for relaxing. There are also ample chairs for guests to relax and enjoy the views. On property, you will find other seating areas in the gardens for additional peace and privacy.
Our home is managed by Maria Jimenez. Maria is from an old and very respected Sayulita family. She has lived in the pueblo all her life. Maria will meet you at the house and orient you. Maria can also arrange for fishing trips, a cook to come to the house, or a massage on the veranda. Maria knows everyone in the pueblo and is great if you run into a problem or emergency. She can also arrange for surfing lessons, paddle board rentals, or horseback riding excursions. She can also arrange for a golf cart rental if you want to explore Sayulita.
Our home has lots of "Gringo" amenities such as air conditioning, internet, and a small safe in the master. The home is well maintained with nice gardens and palm trees for seclusion. As many of the homes on Gringo Hill have full time residents, we have found this location to be very safe yet private. If you rent a golf cart or have a car, we have a dedicated parking area on property with electricity.

This home is like being at home. Amazingly comfortable, well appointed and very appropriate architecture and decor for Sayulita, Mexico. The property manager and host were very attentive and hospitable. Couldn’t have had a better experience. I will definitely be recommending to friends and family and returning. .

Perfectly Perfect
From the start of the rental you’re introduced to Maria who cares for the property and she sets up your weekend ahead of time or during your stay from transport to and from the airport to fishing, rentals, personal chefs, whatever ya need! The house is very clean with a good size plunge pool for those hot afternoons or early morning wake ups. You are above Sayulita so it’s quiet! You’re also exposed to the cooling breeze that comes up the hill. Wonderful views! The street is beautiful and lush. I can’t wait to stay again! An anniversary for the books :)

I wish it was my house
From beginning to the end, the owner John and the local property manager Maria satisfied all of our questions, wants and needs. Maria helped book a fishing trip and snorkeling for my family. The house is beautiful, well maintained and was very clean upon arrival. I think the only thing missing was a TV in the master bedroom. After a long day at the beach, and the kids are asleep, it would have been nice to watch a movie with my wife from the comfort of the bedroom. The town and beach are a short walk down the hill. Many people rent golf carts, we preferred to walk. If you have never driven in this area, I highly recommend renting a SUV or truck with higher ground clearance. We went down many roads that grinded and scraped the bottom of our Nissan rental car. We would definitely rent this home again in the future. A wonderful home and experience. Thank you.

Roomy Spot for a Family
Highlights: Maria--the house manager is wonderful. She is so kind, makes herself as available as you need, and has a deep knowledge of Sayulita. There is plenty of room for a family especially for a longer stay. Lots of room to spread out and enjoy various activities together or privately. The pool area looks shady in the online photos but got plenty of sun throughout the day to enjoy sunbathing poolside even in the winter months. The garden areas are beautifully maintained and gorgeous. The house has a lived-in family vibe--not too precious or designer-y with sturdy furniture and a handful of traditional pieces like the four-poster bed and the bedroom wardrobe. Some items are quite dated. The views are stunning and it is so close to town--walking distance from everywhere. What to know: The kitchen is well appointed with everything you will need if you like to cook. Pans are older teflon and most of the items are somewhat flimsy and new-ish or fragile from wear, again slightly dated. Filtered water is provided and the supply is refreshed weekly. Nights in Sayulita can be LOUD! I doubt it matters where you stay. Pack earplugs! Minisplit units upstairs and down are available if you need them (we did not) but make the space easy to cool. The living room can definitely accommodate five people or even six but the seating is probably only comfortable for longer stretches for about three of those people.The neighbors are great. The house was perfect for our longer stay.

Amazing Sayulita Stay
5 stars all the way! The Villa was beautiful, spacious and very well equipped and the private pool was a treat. The town of Sayulita was amazing, so friendly, great food and beautiful little boutiques everywhere. The beach was great to walk every day and we were impressed with how clean it was. We will definitely be back, thank you John for giving us the opportunity to discover your beautiful home and town.

Great location! Beautiful home!
This amazing house is in the perfect location, just a short walk up the hill from town. Our family did not use a golf cart and the walk up the hill was a nice way to end the day and made the cold beer taste even better when we got "home". What made this trip more memorable was the support and care of John (home owner) and Maria (house manager). From the pickup at the airport to the suggestions of activities, restaurants and gym, we felt we had our own private concierge. Communication with John and Maria was prompt and very helpful. Do not hesitate to book this property! You will not be disappointed!

Loved Every Minute! A True Gem!
I cannot say enough about our experience at John and Molly's little slice of heaven!! We wanted to find the perfect spot for our two families to experience Mexico, in a relaxing setting...and we found it!! Everyone loved the location (the perfect distance, just a short walk up, from the adorable town of Sayulita) and the comforts of home provided by the amazing hosts and local team of helpers. From the moment we arrived at the airport, John had everything arranged for us- airport transfer, stop at the grocery, golf cart delivery. He was the most kind and thorough host I've had the pleasure of working with...and, we've traveled a lot. We felt so cozy and safe at the house, with all of the modern amenities and comfy beds. The many outdoor spaces offered plenty of room to spread out and relax. The house is decorated with impeccable taste in art and full of beautiful ,thoughtful details. The layout worked well for our group, with bedrooms w/ bathrooms on two separate levels. We loved walking down the little cobblestone lane in the mornings to get coffee at one of the many great spots, followed by a stroll on the beach and a little shopping at the many stands on our way back "home". The kids spent countless hours in the pool and we prepared several meals in the well-equipped kitchen. The newer washer and drier were appreciated! I could go on and on, but in a nutshell, look no further! This is truly the perfect spot to unwind, get a taste of culture, and enjoy the magic of Sayulita! Thank you so much, John and Molly for sharing you gorgeous home with our families! We're already dreaming of returning...

Golf cart was not necessary- we enjoyed the trip up hill.

We loved John’s place! Everything was perfect! We loved all the cozy little places to sit and enjoy within the place. By the pool or the numerous different decks. We actually enjoyed the little hike up and down the hill into town and to the beach. We would definitely recommend as a nice quiet place for families, but still close to the bustling town and beach.

The other reviews are for real. This place is amazing: quiet location with beautiful amenities, and a super quick walk to the downtown festivities and lovely beach. I would love to stay here again. Our crew felt so lucky to live there for a short while. (If anyone in your party is disabled, has bad knees, or is excessively clumsy, there are a lot of steps, but such as the case with the entire town.)

We had such a great stay at the Trice family home. You can immediately tell that that the attention to detail has been honed over the years to cover a lot of potential issues. The location is perfect. Just up the hill from the town sqaure and is an under ten minute walk. The weather was perfect and we loved sitting on the various decks. We would definitely return.

Great house!
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The host and house manager were easy to communicate with and they responded in a timely fashion. The house is well maintained and had very useful amenities. We had a great time! Maria arranged for Roberto to pick us up at the airport and we stopped at Mega in Bucerias to purchase groceries. Roberto was very helpful and waited for us, even though our flight was late and we waited a long time for our luggage. He was also on time for our return trip to the airport. We made great use of the ice machine and coffee maker. Though the listing doesn't say it, there was a carbon monoxide detector in the kitchen. The power went out on Gringo Hill one day while we were there, but we spent that day in town. The beds seem very typical of beds in other places we have stayed in Mexico: very firm mattresses. I would have preferred a more comfortable mattress. However, I did enjoy that the couch was quite comfortable, which is unusual for other places we have stayed. We had plenty of towels, including beach towels, and the patio off the upstairs bedroom was great for early morning yoga.

Case Paraiso del Pacifico
We spent two weeks in this amazing house with fantastic views. It’s a short (but steep) walk to downtown and the beach. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated with local art. We used all five outdoor seating areas at various times, though we were usually poolside when we were there during the day and on the upper deck stargazing at night. The property owner and manager were both readily available and quick to help with questions (there weren’t many) and advice (which we got a lot of). They were great to deal with and made our vacation simpler and more enjoyable. We look forward to booking another stay at this property. Five stars all around!
