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 where 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.

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.

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.

We had an amazing week! The house was perfect for our family: 2 adults, 2 teenagers. The grounds were beautiful, the pool was relaxing and the views (from all vantage points throughout the property were amazing.

The villa is absolutely gorgeous and the architecture, layout, decore and outdoor spaces are so beautiful. This place is so well equipped with everything you would need and so much more... from the pool towels and extra beach towels, to cleaning supplies, shopping bags, coffee supplied, spices and oils you just reach for it and it is there. Even shampoo, conditioner, body wash... everything all topped up! The linens also are great quality and feel so crisp and luxurious, which makes you feel like special guests. Very comfortable beds, soft thick towels and bathmats and everything so clean and white. The location is really perfect, so close to everything, the town, the beach. It is high up on a steep hill but that gives you the exercise you want to burn off all of the amazing food. Our host was always a message away with good response and when we requested a golf cart it was brought right to our door. Very clean home and grounds maintained daily. Our roundtrip airport transport arranged by our host was very smooth and easy, so much peace of mind. We would come back and stay here again for sure! Thanks you John for a perfect experience.

Fantastic Property!

The property was amazing. Our 3 boys ages 16, 14, and 12 loved the pool and the home had great sleeping arrangements for them. The location was perfect for our family. An easy walk for the beach and to get to the downtown restaurants and street food. We made the walk 3-4 times per day during our week in Sayulita. John was easy to communicate with and Maria was a great resource during our stay.

Sr. Gals in Sayulita

This was an incredible property. Everything was beyond our expectations. The house was very clean and the art work was so beautiful. Maria was helpful with our transportation from the airport. Having a golf cart in Sayulita is a must and Maria had one waiting for us upon our arrival. We will definitely book this property again.

Paradise

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.

A Peaceful Paradise

This was the perfect retreat for our stay in Sayulita! The house offered the ideal balance of privacy and convenience. It’s just a short 10-minute walk to the town square and beach, yet far enough from the noise and bustle to truly relax and unwind.The home itself is beautiful, spacious, and well-maintained. The pool was a highlight—perfect for cooling off after a day of exploring. The upper sundeck provided stunning panoramic ocean views, and we especially loved sitting up there in the evenings, watching the incredible lightning shows from nearby storms. It was such a peaceful and memorable experience.Maria was incredibly helpful and welcoming. She made sure we were oriented to the house and was always available to assist with anything we needed. From arranging taxis to connecting us with a boat captain for a snorkeling excursion, Maria went above and beyond to make our stay seamless and enjoyable.

About the host

Hosted by John Trice

Host profile image
I have traveled to this part of Mexico since 1969. As a young person, I surfed most of the Mexican Coastline from San Blas to the Guatemalan Boarder. My wife and I are still avid surfers and love Sayulita for its variety of waves.

Why they chose this property

When our son was 10 years old, I wanted to take him back to where his Mom and I had surfed as teenagers and he fell in love with Sayulita. Many of the kids he surfed with are still his friends to this day.

We choose Sayulita because if is close to a major city - Puerto Vallarta with all the creature comforts - but far enough out of the tourist zones to be a quiet family destination. This area of Mexico has be very safe for many years, which was a concern for us as we looked for a home. Sayulita is still very safe and we enjoy surfing there when we can. Our son spent many summers there with our house manager Maria Jimenez and her family and still loves to get away to Sayulita with his family. We have all gotten into Paddle Boarding in the surf, so Sayulita is one of our favorite places to enjoy our new challenge.
