Vista Hermosa “Beautiful View”

Vista Hermosa is a gorgeous Villa 4 bedroom, 5 bath perched above the village of Sayulita, in the prime neighborhood of Nanzal Hill. The 400-foot-above-sea-level location offers incredible views of the Pacific Ocean, Sayulita Bay, the Village, Monkey Mountain and the surrounding jungle. The short 5 to 10 minute walk to the beach or 15 to 20 minute walk to town gives you a close to town feel with the privacy you deserve. You can still hear the waves!!

The home is built in a traditional Mexican style with arched brick roofs, wrought iron gates, mosaic tile columns, thatched roof, talavera tiles in all the bathrooms and stairs, parota wood doors and windows, and topped off with beautiful colors and local art. The property consists of over 1200 m² surrounded by nature on all sides for privacy. Additionally, you are protected with a Ring camera system.

Amazing vacation
Where do I start? Let me start with communication with the owners and the amazing staff that they have. Everyone was very helpful answering questions before and during the trip. Absolute top notch team. The house is perfect but to focus on one thing I will go with the heated swimming pool. Private. Relaxing and what a view. I would also recommend that everyone rent the golf cart. Makes everything simple coming and going as you please. Thank you for the wonderful vacation. We will return.

Perfect spot in Sayulita
The property is exactly what we were hoping it would be! We had an awesome visit from the time we arrived until the time we departed. The views, cabana, main house and pool are all very well kept and just as described and as shown in the photos. The heated pool was absolutely the highlight! We ended most days, soaking in the pool watching the sunsets! Thanks so much for sharing your spot with us! We hope to return! Kevin, Chrissy and friends

Beautiful home with some issues
We booked this house for the heated pool, which was in the title of the listing. Sadly, the pool was only heated for one day out of seven. Gus, the manager, was very nice and had lots of reasons for the problem: a broken water heater, a new but untested sensor, no repairmen available, etc. In the end, the owners did give us a small refund to make us feel better. The house listed a washer and dryer, but we were not allowed to use them, so bring extra bathing suits. The satellite TV, as listed, did not exist - it was a roku TV with Amazon as the only chanel. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but we brought my 94 year old mom who needed her heated pool and her shows. The house is lovely, comfortable beds, nice a/c, and a well equipped kitchen. The casita is charming (take a nap in that hammock) but whoever stays there needs good ear plugs and perhaps noise cancelling headphones; there's lots of ambient music floating up the hill. One thing we loved was the golf cart - it was exhilarating to zip down the hill around the curvy roads, luckily our daughter is an expert golf cart driver! Overall, we loved Sayulita and will be back, but next time would opt for a hotel since some of the luxuries we payed for did not exist at this house.

Honest Review
When we arrived, we never had anyone there to meet us. The house was tidy, but not clean. The property manager did not show up. We had to learn the house on our own, with the help of a few text messages. We didn't know when cleaners (who are great) were to come, gardeners and/or garbage - until they were actually there (to our surprise). The property manager came through the property on day 2 while we were away, and did not advise us of this The house is a nice property, with incredible views. The pool and patio area are awesome. We had heat in the pool for 24hrs, which got very warm. Asked how to control the heat, and it was turned off for the rest of the trip with no advice how to control it. The detached casita (4th bedroom) is completely outdoors. Needless to say when poor weather, bugs (scorpion on day 4) or excess noise (common in Sayulita), this was not a place to get sleep. The other 3 bedrooms were great, but not great for a family of 2 adults and 4 teenage kids. The toilets worked, but could not take any type of paper (even toilet paper, to our surprise). The wifi worked, but was spotty in some bedrooms. There is laundry, but it gets locked The road to the property is not safe for much. With any water the road is impossible to get up to without a 4wd vehicle. Our vehicle service to pick us up got stuck. Golf carts going down were sketchy and could be a problem We paid a premium and had the home rented for 14 days. We ended up leaving 3 days early

Absolutely Stunning
This house was hands down the best part of our trip and we had such a blast in the Beautiful City of Sayulita. This house was gorgeous top to bottom and Ted and Brenda have done such a great job with the property it is truly beautiful. Brenda (Host) called before our trip and guided me in all the great things that Sayulita has to offer and her expertise was so perfect. They have everything set up for you. (Golf carts, local eats, in house chef's if needed) The property manager was super helpful and very timely if we had any questions about the property or about sayulita in general. They also have an excellent car service to pick you up from PVR airport. Best advise is you ask for Giavanni if you go with there service. He made us laugh the entire drive to and from the airport. Another special thanks to Ted and Brenda for allowing us to stay at the house. We would recommend this house to anyone visiting the city of Sayulita.

Best vacation home in Sayulita!
The house was PERFECT for three couples celebrating decades of friendship, with a week in Sayulita. The fabulous pool was our hub and we spent many a happy hour there! The house was clean, well equipped, comfortable, & close to town- but far enough away to be private and quiet. The homeowners were helpful and kind. They called with details and instructions before the trip. They helped arrange golf carts, a cleaner, and a friendly local contact who answered questions quickly when texted. I hope to return to Sayulita one day and definitely want to stay here again. This house made our trip! THANK YOU T&B for sharing your lovely home with us!

Perfection at it's finest
We had an amazing time at this property. The house was perfect for our family. It has beautiful Mexican decor throughout the entire home. The outdoor space has phenomenal views of the Sayulita beach and is a great place for entertaining and lounging in the pool watching the sunset. The house comes fully stocked with everything you can think of. The house comes with a Golf Cart (per a fee for your stay). This will get you to town and the beach which is a quick 5 mins away. The house is located on Nanzal Hill. So I highly recommend the golf cart. Upon your arrival the property manager will meet you at the property and explain everything about the house. He is is super helpful with any questions about everything and anything. He has lived in Sayulita for 14 yrs. You can text or call him with anything that might arise during your stay and he will get it taken care of. He is also a great reference for any place that you might want to go during your stay. There is a cleaning lady (Vicki) who comes twice a week to clean the house. She is such a sweet lady and always has the house looking immaculate. Ted and Brenda (owners) have everything set up for a hassle free vacation. From start to finish the correspondence with both of them was exactly what you would want from renting a property. I highly recommend Vista Hermosa to anyone wanting the perfect Sayulita getaway. We definitely look forward to are next stay.

Amazing! I wish we had more time
Where to begin! Ted and Brenda were fantastic hosts. They communicated thoroughly and often leading up to our trip. Upon arrival - the driver (organized by Ted/Brenda) picked us up perfectly on time, took us to a grocery store, and dropped us off at the house / picked us up on our way out of town. The property manager was extremely helpful as well, answering all questions we had. The house was fantastic (I loved staying in the open air room) and the golf cart is a MUST for getting up and down the hill :) (well, not a must, we walked a bunch, but it sure was handy!). I told my family members all about it and am hoping to return again for another vacation.

We had a great time in Sayulita and would definitely come back to this house! The kitchen was well appointed with everything we could need and the property manager was a quick phone call or text away, which was very helpful. The house is located on a steep hill, which provides for stunning views but I would definitely recommend using the golf cart! We walked into town once but the golf cart made it faster and more convenient. Property owners were also very responsive and easy to communicate with! Highly recommend!

The pictures do not do this house justice. Truly magnificent views. The heated pool was so relaxing and clean. The palapa room with the hammock was a favorite with my kids and myself for afternoon naps. The golf cart is a must as the rode up to the house is quite steep. It also allows for easy rides to town for restaurants and the beach. Sayulita is definitely a foody destination, the restaurants were superb. We like to go somewhere different for our spring break trips, however we all feel we will book this house again.

Trip of a lifetime
I cannot describe fully with words what an amazing time we had staying at villa hermosa and experiencing Sayulita. Starting from the beginning Ted and Brenda made it clear how passionate they are about Sayulita and their home. And they were 100% accurate. The pictures and description of Villa Hermosa doesn't do it justice. Stunning views from every room, clean and welcoming, and the infinity pool was our favorite place to hang out. The casita was such a neat addition to Ted and Brendas property. We all took turns enjoying a night in the casita and one day enjoyed massages in it as well. We felt very safe on the property. The security system announces when someone is at the front gate or opening the lower casita gate. There was never a time we were worried about unwanted guests. We had 7 ladies on our trip that arrived at different times and Margerito and his crew were prompt and easy to work with to help us get to/from the airport and around town, Brenda and Ted highly suggested him and we were all very happy they did. Lastly I want to show my appreciation for the properties care taker Gus. He was our right hand man on this trip and I can’t thank him enough for answering our many questions. Whatever we needed Gus was there to take care of us. Thank you again Ted and Brenda for making us feel like family in your home. These 7 Midwesterner ladies made lots of memories that we will never forget❤️

Perfect house for a group!
The house is AMAZING. Beautiful views and you can't beat the pool. Very clean. Beach and pool accessories (towels, chairs, umbrella, pool floaties, coolers, etc) are at the house to use. If you want solid workout, walk the very steep hill to the house! If you don't feel like breaking a sweat on your vacation, I would recommend the golf cart. Haha. Good news is that it only takes a few short minutes to walk DOWN. And a $5 taxi back up. The open air casita is beautiful! But the bugs can be brutal and it is a bit noisy (cars, people, nearby construction). The house is really beautiful and the bathrooms are great. We had a fabulous stay and it never felt cramped. Gus, the property manager is incredibly helpful. It is nice to have a local contact to help you with anything you need or any issues that may come up.

BE CAREFULL, NOT SECURE
I will start with the bad and end with the good... This property is very hard to secure safely to avoid crime. The owner has several cameras surrounding the property, and a big front gate but it did not protect us during our stay. On our first day we chose to leave all valuables in 2 different safes provided in the home, when we returned to the house after dinner in town both safes had been opened without forced and all of our cash had been stolen. There was a 3rd safe onsite with a pin code that only the owners who live in Texas have the code for. After we were robbed I contacted the owner to get the more secure code for the remaining time of our stay, but the owner was unable to provide a working code. The rest of our stay we chose to hide valuables around the house rather than trust any safe onsite since they were compromised. I asked the owners to review any of the 5 surveillance cameras but they were unable to find any recordings of the intruder. I wish I would have added some travel insurance to protect ourselves from theft onsite. If you are okay taking the risk of stolen property I will say the house has amazing views off the back patio/pool. We spent most of our time in the infinity pool that overlooks the whole cove. The kitchen was well equipped with needs for cooking with all the fresh bottled water you need. 3 of the bedrooms were inside the home and comfortable, each with their own AC unit. The 4th bedroom was down the stairs from the pool in an open air setting, it had great views but it didn't get used much because of the hot temperatures, and bugs during our stay. The travel time down the hill and into town was about 10 minutes in a golf cart on very narrow and steep roads. The golf carts we rented managed them pretty easily, it would be much more tricky in a rental car.

Beautiful View
A great house with a beautiful view, gated, private heated pool, clean throughout, nice linen, awesome casita, air conditioned, etc. My husband and I stayed in May of 2020. The house was large for just two of us, but it had the amenities we were looking for and we had a FABULOUS vacation. Every day we took the golf cart to town for lunch. The food and margaritas were amazing. We did not get sick eating local food and we felt very comfortable walking around town during the day. On the way back to the house, we stopped at small markets to grab food and fresh veggies for dinner and then stopped at the butcher for steaks. We grilled steaks on the BBQ and made great fresh veggie salads. Getting a Covid test for return to the U.S. was easy. The living room is rather small if you plan to sit around and visit inside, but there is plenty of seating outside. The stools in the pool are missing some tiles, but that did not hinder our enjoyment of the pool. A golf cart rental is a must. It doesn't take long to get to town, but the road is a bit windy and steep. I would recommend this house.

On Ted's referral, Margarito for taxi services (3 separate families with 3 separate arrivals and departures) was easy to work with and extremely reliable and on time. Gustavo as our POC in Sayulita was always there for us when needed and a pleasure to talk with. He set us up with a great in home catered dinner. We were celebrating my husband's 50th birthday - there were 3 couples and we each have one child, ages 2, 5, and 7. We could not keep the 5 and 7 year olds out of the pool. The home was very safe and comfortable. The reviews about the views do not lie! The golf carts are a must, especially with little kiddos. We loved this home and all its amenities. Highly recommend. This was our 3rd time in Sayulita, we will certainly be back. Thank you Ted and Brenda and crew!
