This was such a special place to stay. You could feel the love and intention that was put into the design and building of this wonderful property. Perfect for a family with adult children as each bedroom was separate/private with its own bathroom. Almost like suites and a small boutique inn.

Fantastic family getaway

We stayed at both the El Nindo and the Big House with our family and had an amazing time. The concierge Marie was so helpful with suggesting things to do and for making sure we were comfortable. We had one small issue with some work that was being done in the house and the property manager took care of it quickly. The housekeeping and grounds staff were also so lovely and helpful. The biggest plus was the heated pool - perfect for swimming with our baby. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Home, Beautiful Views, the Perfect Stay.

This property is absolutely beautiful. The home is well thought out, well designed and while spacious it is also comfy and cozy. It is clear that much love went into building this home down to the fixtures and artwork. The views are great too, we enjoyed sunset from the numerous patios each night. We enjoy cooking and found the kitchen to be well stocked. The staff were very nice and helpful. Bill and Melissa are wonderful hosts and we can't wait to return to Villa de Vistas.

Perfect, memorable experience!

Our group of six, three couples, had a fantastic stay here. There are two fabulous(!!!) Master Suites and a nice third bedroom with king size bed so it was wonderful that each couple had a great space with privacy and en suite bathrooms. The house is very large with big spaces including a family room with large tv where we were able to catch a playoff game. The pool was great and there are several terraces that I really didn't notice in the photographs. The house is nicely appointed with anything you could need and the staff incredible! We loved the three people who care for the house and gorgeous landscaping and Iris was very helpful and quickly came to our aid when we locked selves out of one of the bedrooms. Bill and Melissa provided all kinds of information about the house and area. Do be aware that you have a pretty bumpy ride from San Pancho out to the house but that made it all the more special once we arrived. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!~

Great view and space

Grande space for groups. All together had a great time. 20-25 minute walk on the beach from the house to the town. Muchos stairs to get to the beach. 10 minutes by car on at times a rough road to the pueblo. Kitchen and bathroom accessories need a refresh.

Great place between jungle and the beach

High up, but still just less than 5 minutes walking from the beach, this big house provides great views of the pacific ocean. As a family of five, we very much enjoyed our five days in this spacy and fully equipped villa, supported by friendly and helpful staff. The location is at the peaceful end of the wonderful San Pancho beach on the one side but as well close to jungle wildlife. Highly recommended.

Fantastic Ocean View Property

We rented the main house and El Nido. We were a party of 7 and there was plenty of room for everyone. The pool was great, the hike down (and back up) to the North end of the main San Pancho beach was relatively quick. The house is built into the hillside and has absolutely gorgeous views of the ocean and lights of Sayulita at night. There is an abundance of stairs, so be prepared for some stair climbing. Iris and Rodrigo were great to work with on-site. The kitchen and family room were very spacious. The bedrooms were well appointed and the bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. The A/C worked well in the bedrooms and kitchen area. We would definitely stay here again.

David, we are so pleased to know that you and your family enjoyed our Casa and Nido as well as the views from our property. And you are right about the abundance of stairs--I never gain weight during the months we are living in the Casa! We do hope that you choose to return for another stay in our Casa and Nido. Our staff had nothing but good things to say about your presence on our property. Melissa (and Bill) Roberts

Breathtaking Villa

This was our second stay at this beautiful villa. The house is exquisitely designed with incredible views of the Beach and San Pancho. Each bedroom is beautifully decorated and the kitchen is spacious with everything you need. This property is very well taken care of and kept very clean (kids love the pool!) and we love that it's walking distance to the beach and town. The owners are pleasure to work with and were very responsive. We hope to return soon and have recommended this beautiful villa to friends and family.
