About this property

Best views in San Pancho-Oceanfront Villa, Heated Infinity Pool & Private Tennis

Casa Melissa is a unique oceanfront home in San Pancho, Nayarit with panoramic coastal views, a heated infinity pool, and a private lighted tennis court. Perched above the Pacific, the property offers one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the area. It is a special, relaxed, and unforgettable home where the setting is the star.

You can view the coastline from Punta Sayulita in the south to the outline of San Blas to the north. If you move your gaze to the east, you can view the beautiful tropical palm jungle.

You feel like you are away from it all. Yet after a short walk on the dirt road and on the mile long, wide sandy beach, you can easily walk to San Pancho and its many restaurants and shops,

Casa Melissa is tropical Mexico as you dreamed it would be. During the day watch whales, dolphins and rays pass below as you enjoy a drink on the terrace or relax in the pool. In the evening the sunsets are breathtaking!

The house is designed for comfort and connection to the outdoors. Large open spaces, ocean breezes, and expansive terraces make it easy to settle into vacation mode.

What makes Casa Melissa truly unique:
• Oceanfront setting with sweeping views of the Pacific
• Heated infinity pool overlooking the water
• Private, lighted tennis court
• Incredible sunsets
• Quiet, peaceful location just minutes from town

Amenities of the villa include:
All rooms having air conditioning, ocean views and fans.
Solar panels and battery back-up so power outages and brown-outs won't bother you.
Doors and windows have screens so you can get the tropical air without any tropical bugs!
There is also a whole house water purification system so water from the tap is safe. Additionally we have a bottled purified water dispenser with instant hot and cold water.
Stay connected with our high speed internet connection.

The Casita, a 5th bedroom suite, features a queen bed, ceiling fan, air conditioner, full bathroom and a kitchenette. It has a large terrace with an ocean view overlooking the tennis court.

Our property accommodates up to 10 guests. The base price is for 6 guests, with an additional charge of $20 per night for each extra guest. Please let us know the total number of guests at the time of booking to avoid any misunderstandings.

Casa Melissa is for those who want to get away from it all, and to relax surrounded by the natural beauty of the Mexican Riviera.

Maid service is included Monday through Saturday.
The staff will even grocery shop for you before you arrive - you just pay for the groceries!
We want to make your stay at Casa Melissa a true vacation.

Whales migrate along the coast between December and March, with maybe a few early ones in Nov or late ones in April. See them from the terrace or get close-up on a boat in the Bay of Banderas.
Nature lovers can enjoy tropical birds flying by at eye level or go on a bird watching tour. See iguanas, geckos, tejones or tour the turtle nursery and help release baby turtles into the ocean. Ocean kayaking, snorkeling and hiking in the palm jungle or walking on the mile long sandy beach are a few of the best ways to enjoy this tropical paradise.

The small town of San Pancho is unique. It has an active polo community and a polo field, a yoga center, a nine hole golf course (currently closed) and fabulous restaurants. There are many shops and a variety of restaurants within easy walking distance of Casa Melissa.

Events during the year include a national surfing contest, annual music festival, and Art Festival in December. Or rent a car and explore the whole area.

Besides fabulous views, Casa Melissa has its own private lighted tennis court. The tennis court is a special Australian product that is used in the tropics, a synthetic grass surface topped with sand. It plays like clay but is ready for play 15 minutes after a rain shower (very important in the summer). The other great thing about the tennis court is that it slows the game down - great if you are playing mixed doubles. What makes this tennis court unique is that it has an ocean view! Try not to get distracted by the pelicans flying by as you play the game. Or play at night with the lights and when it is cool.

Casa Melissa has three bedrooms for the quoted price. The nearby Casita bedroom suite is available for rent for an extra charge. The Casita is only rented as part of Casa Melissa. You would never share this beautiful estate with other renters.

Casa Melissa is ideal for:
✔ Tennis lovers
✔ Families
✔ Groups of friends
✔ Guests who value views and outdoor living
✔ Travelers seeking something truly unique
If you’re looking for unforgettable views, privacy, and a one-of-a-kind setting — you’ll love it here.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Melissa

Our stay at Casa Melissa was perfect. The house and the setting are both beautiful- 180 degree views of the ocean and amazing sunsets. The staff took excellent care of us. We highly recommend a visit to San Pancho. It's a laid back, authentic Mexican village. If you do go, a stay at Casa Melissa is a must.

Gorgeous views!

We loved our stay at Casa Melissa! We had a great family vacation with 10 people & there was plenty of room for everyone. The views up and down the coast were magnificent! One of our favorite things to do was just lay in the pool & watch the birds fly by at eye level. We wish we could have stayed longer!

The view

The property offers adequate space and offers a functional layout. The pool is nice and warm and has the best views, watching the sunsets was the best part of our trip. The property is not in walking distance to the town nor a beach but a short drive, the road to the property is steep and requires 4X4.

Can't say enough good things about the property and staff at Casa Melissa. We spent 5 nights and will have memories to last a life time. The views are even more beautiful than the photos posted. Absolutely jaw dropping. Great for a family vacation or girl's trip. San Pancho is easy to walk to and the people are so gracious, warm, and welcoming. Would love to make this an annual trip.

Wowza !

This place does not disappoint in any way. I’ve stayed in some pretty Cool places on the Pacific Ocean, and Casa Melissa rises to the top of the list. The Views are amazing from any where on the property. I have waited for over 15 years for it to be available for my travel dates, and finally the stars aligned, and I got my wish. I hope to stay here many more times. Thank you Melissa for sharing your Wonderful place with us, we feel blessed.

Loved Our Stay

The property was wonderful!! The owner was very informative and accessible. The pictures don't do the view justice. It is breathtaking when you pull up to the house. The staff was highly attentive, grounds and house very well maintained. We had one issue with the gate not opening, and it was resolved immediately! If you stay here, you MUST hire Yeyo to cook. We had him for 3 dinners and 1 brunch, and his company and cooking were spectacular!! We will absolutely be back:)

This is a truly stunningly beautiful property! We loved the house, the food that Yeyo made us was amazing, town is close enough to walk to, but far enough that you're out of the fray. We enjoyed the views from the pool and the house, and the sound of the waves is gorgeous. The house was exceedingly well-equipped too; the kitchen has everything you need, and towels are abundant. Melissa is a wonderful owner and manager. She was extremely accommodating and forthcoming with information. You cannot go wrong with a stay at Casa Melissa!

Family Christmas getaway

When we arrived at Casa Melissa, we quickly agreed that the pictures did not do justice to how beautiful this property is. It exceeded expectations. We ate 4 meals at home: Red Snapper, Fajitas, Coconut Shrimp, and Chili Rellenos. Yeyo is an excellent cook and we'd strongly recommend using his services. Before the trip, I had an extensive dialog with Melissa and she promptly answered all questions asked from travel, to eating recommendations, to personal safety. I would highly recommend this property.

Lovely place for a getaway

House was very well maintained and had everything we needed. The pool was a delight. It was a bit isolated which was good. We used taxi recommended by Iris to go to San Pancho and Sayulita. She was always helpful no matter what we asked. It was hot in Mexico in August. The bedrooms are air conditioned, but not the rest of the house. That said, our stay was delightful. We would return, but at a different time of year

About the host

Hosted by Melissa McCann

Host profile image
We are a family of 4. We have always spent part of the winter in Mexico. When we discovered San Pancho we knew this was the place where we wanted to build a house. We built the house to fit our family, so each of the kids had their own bedroom and could have a friend come down and vacation with them, plus we had an extra bedroom for the parents.

Why they chose this property

We were lucky enough to visit San Pancho before it was 'discovered'. When we saw this property with its incredible views we knew we had to buy it. We see more of the coast/ocean then any other property in the area! It is magical. Arriving at Casa Melissa and looking at the view is immediately relaxing. My favorite thing is to swim in the pool mesmerized by the views in each direction.

My husband and I disagreed on only one thing - which was the better view, the view to the south looking at Punta Sayulita or the view to the north looking at a series of small beaches. So most of the house has views to the south, but the master bedroom has views in both directions and has a balcony on the north side as well as opening to the terrace on the south side. In the mornings I sit in the dining room looking north and he sits at the opposite end of the table looking south. We worked it out.

What makes this property unique

Besides the fabulous view, we had to have a tennis court. We built one made out of an Australian product that is sand and astro-turf. It plays like clay but is ready for play 15 minutes after the rain ends (very important in the summer). The other great thing about the court is that it slows the game down - great if you are playing mixed doubles or singles with your husband. Oh and the other great thing about the court is that it has an ocean view. Try not to get distracted by the pelicans flying over the ocean as you play the game.
