If you have the time a couple of nights in Guadalajara can be very enjoyable with the wonderful old world buildings and the many great restaurants not to mention good shopping. Of course one cant miss market day on Thursday. The Mexican lady sells the best bread in Mexico also all sorts of sinful sweet treats including great pies. For your special treat we can arrange in house massages, pedicure and manicures at very reasonable prices....moreless

                                A very beautiful and thoughtfully designed property! The grounds are lovely with a gorgeous pool and palapa area for relaxing and enjoying a cool drink and a good book. We stayed 10 nights in the Toltec Suite and enjoyed this unit for it's bright spacious open feeling and great view of the lagoon full of birds, fish and the occasional turtle. It was also fun to watch the fishermen prepare their boats each morning for a day of fishing on the ocean. Town as others have mentioned is just a short beachwalk away or an interesting wander throught the neighborhood and over the bridge. Robi and Dan are wonderful hosts who are truly interested in making sure you are enjoying your vacation. Thank you Robi and Dan (Maggie too)! We loved our time at Sunset Casa and can't wait to get back to this little slice of paradise!

                                We stayed at Sunset Casa for 3 weeks and wished we could have stayed longer! Everything was perfect and so much more than we expected. The grounds of Sunset Casa are very well maintained and we enjoyed sitting by the pool and visiting with other residents. Robi and Dan had a Margarita night for everyone to get together. It was wonderful to open the gate and be right on the beach. We had no complaints about anything, the bed was fantastic, very comfortable and cleaning was done once a week. The view from the suite was very interesting and we enjoyed watching the local people go about their daily chores. The fishermen were also very entertaining and friendly and we were able to buy fresh fish and shrimp a 5 minute walk down the beach. The town in typical Mexican so we really liked getting the "feel" of Mexico as opposed to the stuffy all inclusive resorts. The market on Thursday mornings was a real treat where we bought fresh fruit, vegetables, bread and desserts. Catering was not an issue as you can buy almost anything at the local shops where the people are very friendly and helpful or visit one of the many restaurants where the food is very tasty and not expensive. We walked to the restaurants in the evening and felt very safe. Thank you Robi and Dan for arranging the cab from the airport, that was wonderful. We will definitely return to Sunset Casa!

                                A 5 star with only 6 guests - unbelievable! Stayed in 2 different suites that were great; like a private villa on the ocean. Especially enjoyed the side view of estuary which includes local fishermen mending nets, exotic birds, and wildlife from crocodiles to horses. Our hosts provided a wealth of info on local 'best spots' for shopping/restaurants or side trips to Soyalita & Los Ayalas - also arranged p.u. at airport for us! Can't say enough - only that we will return!

                                My husband and I spent the month of Jan. 2012 at Sunset Casa and had a wonderful time. We were in the Toltec suite and found it to be very clean, well appointed and with every convenience one could possible need. There is a large pool on the property and if one wants, simply open the gate and there's the beach with the warmest water I've experienced. Dan and Robbi our hosts were great, always there with helpful information and their friendship. La Penita itself is a working Mexican town with friendly and caring people and is only a ten min. walk from this location. There are plenty of stores in which to purchase fruits, veggies etc. and many great restraunts all with reasonable prices. The sunsets from our patio were breathtaking, as was the overall view. Can't say enough good things about Sunset Casa. Hopefully we will return soon. Thanks for all for making our stay memorable.

                                We spent a beautiful 3 weeks at Sunset Casa. All three of the apartments are beautiful with fantastic ocean views. We loved the proximity to town . La Penita is a wonderful Mexican town. The town is vibrant and alive with wonderful friendly people,inexpensive restaurants, grocery stores, bank machines, pharmacies and almost eveything else you would want from a small town. We always felt safe in the enviroment. Our apartment was clean with a beautiful ocean and beach view right to the next town, nice furniture and a comfortable bed. I can't say enough about the owners Robi and Dan . They were friendly, very informative about the area and showed us a great time with a fun trip to Chacala and a margarita night. All in all it was a vacation to remember and we will be back

                                After spending year after year with tourists in packed all-inclusive resorts throughout Mexico, we wanted to try it on our own. We could not have picked a more perfect place!!!! This property truly does have it all! Our apartment was spacious, beautifully furnished, well stocked, quiet, clean, new, and very comfortable! The property is stunning - everyone is right - it is much more beautiful in person and the location is exceptional!! The sunsets are different every night and the most amazing we've ever seen! You truly are right on the ocean and we could easily walk to La Penita for groceries, drinks, supplies, or restaurants. All the restaurants were not only inexpensive but very excellent!! La Penita is a small Mexican fishing village with "real" people - we felt completely safe the whole time we were there (for 4 weeks). This place is beautiful, romantic and relaxing - we loved practically having the pool all to ourselves .... and the whole Rivieria Nayarit was very fun to explore when we felt like walking (to Guayabitos) or hoping a bus to any number of beautiful little towns along the coast. Robi and Dan gave us such a warm, wonderful welcome, alot of helpful information about the area, and the gift of their friendship. If you want to experience the "reality" of small-town-Mexico coupled with a true "piece-of-paradise" then we would highly recommend this property.

                                We voted that this property in Nayairit is the Best Romantic Place To Stay. Dan and Robi provide the serenity and comfort you expect and go beyond this to make your vacation very special. Its all that is advertised and more. Definately recommended and will return this year.

                                3 of us stayed at this property for a 50th birthday party. The owners seemed nice at first, said never can hear anything so enjoy. First night told too loud, another time brought people over at 6:30 p.m. to check out property as they thought they would rent long term. Asked permission first, said would only be there one hour, after 45 mins. we were told this was not acceptable. One of the most beautiful places I ever stayed at, until one realizes the amount of rules are brutal. My parents in their 70's would get kicked out. The lady of the house is unreasonable and I would never recommend to anyone, ever!!

                                Owner response: This property consists of 3 vacation rental units, plus the owner’s home. Our policy is to offer our guests quiet enjoyment of the property for the duration of their stay. During the evening mentioned in the complaint, it appeared that a party was developing that would cause discomfort to our other guests. They were asked to please take the party elsewhere, which they did. We did not think we were being unreasonable.

                                If you are looking for a relaxing warm vacation where you can experience the everyday life of a Mexican town, amid the backdrop of miles of sandy beach & endless colorful sunsets, then Sunset Casa is the place for you . The accommodations were wonderful, exactly as described, with every kitchen gadget or appliance you will need, including a quality blender for your margaritas. The bed was super comfy the suite was very clean. There is a great view of the ocean from the deck. We could also watch the fisherman bringing in their daily catch, while literally being swarmed by egrets, pelicans and seagulls; this was very entertaining. There are loads of places to eat in town, but don't be afraid to stop and eat with the locals at one of the many street-side vendors. We also bought fresh shrimp/fish and loads of fresh veggies and fruit in town. Our favorite casual place to eat was “Las Brisas”, a 5 minute stroll from Sunset Casa; I recommend the shrimp burrito. They don’t stay open late so be there by 5:30 ...and you can watch the sunset . Everything you need is in town, but you can easily hop a bus and head to one of the many neighboring beachside towns ( we recommend San Pancho with its interesting library and recycle program!)... if you are missing the noise and crowds of the “touristo” area, you can walk 25 min down the beach , or take a 7 peso taxi to the resort town of Guayabitos. One of the highlights in La Penita, is the Thursday Market which starts around 0800...until 1:30-2:00. You will find loads of jewelry ( silver, leather, stones), blankets, pottery and other artisan wares, but you will also find that the locals come here to buy baked goods, fruit and vegetables in addition to almost every household item you might need. The main plaza by the church seems to be for visitors and artisans, while the side street behind the plaza was where the locals streamed. The owners of Sunset Casa, Robi & Dan are super hosts; they are very helpful if you have questions or need advice, and we really enjoyed sharing a drink under the palapa. It is a true testament to our wonderful experience, that when we returned home we found that we not only dearly missed La Penita & Sunset Casa, but also Robi, Dan (& Maggie) and the other wonderful people we met. Hasta Luego

                              About the owner: After a long winter of construction, Dan and I are ready to start the upcoming vacation season in our new winter home in Mexico. This is an exciting lifestyle change for us and we are offering a choice of 3 vacation rentals. Here we are in our garden in Canada with out Schnauzer Maggie.

                              Why the Owner Chose Rincon de Guayabitos:
                              We chose to build her because of the proximity to town and the beautiful beach front location. We also love the small town appeal and all the near by activities. It is truly a very active and vibrant Mexican community. We love the people and we feel extreamly safe her walking the streets

                              The Unique Benefits at this Apartment:
                              This vacation rental property is only minutes by foot from town center. You will enjoy short walks to all type of restaurants, shopping, market days, and sight seeing. There is easy public transportation to surronding towns and Puerto Vallarta. Sunset is perfect under the palapa or from your own ocean view balcony. All three apartments are direct ocean and beach view .
