About the host
Hosted by Stephanie Ralston
Welcome! (Bien Venidos)
Elena’s is a boutique beachfront retreat offering private homes and garden villas on Los Ayala Beach, along Mexico’s stunning Pacific coast—just 60 km north of Puerto Vallarta
International Airport.
Elena’s on the Beach is named for my mother, Elena, who with my father, sailed into the Los Ayala cove in the 1960's and fell in love with Los Ayala—back when it was little more than a quiet fishing village. My parents quickly retired and spent the rest of their lives dividing their time between Los Ayala and the US.
My parents built a library with thousands of books, for the local children, built bridges and basketball courts in Los Ayala. Elena is well known throughout the village for her contribution to the children and to local families. The library is located on the property. Now 98, Elena remains active in teaching the grandchildren of her first students in her library (Elena's Biblioteca) which supports local children in improving their reading, learning English and most of all, having fun!
I have been coming to Los Ayala most of my life. 20 years ago I decided to spend more time in Los Ayala and purchased my home. Each year we stayed longer and longer because we love the area so much. My husband and I now live in Los Ayala full time.
Elena's is family-run, cared for by local residents who have lived in the area for over a decade and we are all proud to show the beauties of Los Ayala and Nayarit and to carry forward a legacy of hospitality, connection, and care.
