Steps from the beach with private heated pool and incredible views

Villa Alheli (801) in Sayulita occupies a privileged position within the recognized Condominium Pajaro de Fuego. From here you can enjoy a full view of the infinite ocean while you are in direct contact with the jungle.
The sound of waves along with birdsong and cicadas will take you to a state of total relaxation.
The large terrace of Villa Alhelí adjoins the roof garden with the largest and most spectacular views of Sayulita. Walking a few steps you will see absolutely everything that makes this place a paradise. The view of the stars at night is unparalleled. On this terrace and poolside lounge is the private heated pool and swim jet for those who like a good workout/ swim. You can also sit in the pool to see the ocean and the jungle from the water.
The terrace includes lounge chairs, table and BBQ for lounging or entertaining and is a lovely feature of the Villa that will delight those who come to escape the winter.
Villa Alheli has 2,800 square feet (260 m2). Its spacious and beautiful design is discovered upon opening the door and its exquisite decor with contemporary Mexican style is revealed: Tzalam wood, marble, glass, parchment and leather. The mirrors in the room multiply the spectacular views.
An entertainment center houses the HD TV with blue ray, HDMI cable and the most complete system of cable TV in Mexico, with the ability to record programs for later viewing.
The Italian style kitchen has modern appliances and is fully equipped to prepare anything, from a simple sandwich to an elaborate Holiday dinner.
The master bedroom, with a king size bed, has AC and high power range. The spacious bathroom with walk in closet and double sinks has a Jacuzzi tub. Also includes hair dryer, ironing board and safe.
The guest bedroom is very large, with two double beds, private bathroom, AC with high power range
Both bedrooms share a balcony that sits in the treetops and overlooks the sea. From here you can see exotic birds with colorful plumage on a visit during the winter or enjoy the Tabachín orange flowers in summer.
Next to the kitchen is the laundry room with washer and dryer. We provide laundry detergent as well as detergent for the dishwasher.
The corridor leads to the study where you can work, rest or even sleep, because the chair is a comfortable queen size futon that serves as a third bedroom and also connects to the master bath. It has AC.
Villa Alheli in Sayulita can accommodate 6 adults and 2 children.

Mattresses, bedding, bath and beach towels are of the highest quality. We provide an umbrella and 4 beach chairs.
Maid service is every other day. The internet signal reaches the entire Villa.
Pajaro De Fuego offers 24/7 monitoring and 2 parking spaces, one covered on Av. Del Palmar and another one closer to the Villa. But above all this, Villa Alhelí has the best pool in Sayulita and is located a few steps from the beach on the North end.
If the dates you require are busy, inquire about Condo Las Verandas (209) also in the same complex.

Family stay
We had a lovely stay in Sayulita. Steep hill, but location was great, close to everything by golf cart but also quiet in the evenings. Pools were nice and the breeze on our upper level condo was wonderful. Efren the property manager was great, met us to check-in, coordinated a cart rental, checked back several times to see if we needed anything and recommend beaches and restaurants.

Clean, Spacious Condo With Amazing Views!
We are so happy we found this place! The host and condo staff were amazingly helpful and responsive. The condo itself is an oasis on top of a hill with amazing views and your own private pool. Downtown Sayulita is a reasonable walk or very quick golf cart ride away. We had an amazing five days here and would happily book this again.

The condo was very clean and comfortable with lovely outdoor space. We didn’t rent a golf cart and walked into town every day and found the walk up to the condo challenging but that was a good thing as we felt like we were getting some exercise.

This property was very clean and had everything we needed to enjoy Sayulita. The property managers were very professional and helpful. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and enjoying the beautiful view. I would caution the amount of steps to get to the property. It was not an issue for us but it may be difficult for some.

View from the hill
The place was great and Mary was very responsive and easy to work with. Thanks to other reviews we were prepared for the stairs but had we not read other reviews prior they would have been a huge shock! My only real complaint was that the heater was out in the small private pool. Very comfortable bed and bedding.!

Great spot!
We chose this place bc we were looking for excellent outdoor space and close to beach. It didn’t disappoint! The complex is well cared for and felt safe (as did Sayulita as a whole). I loved this area bc it felt a bit quieter than downtown but walking distance to beach, restaurants, shopping, all we would need. We got a golf cart and loved seeing the square when we wanted. The primary and secondary bedrooms are awesome. As is the kitchen, living room and outside. Perfect for hanging out. The third bedroom is one that has a queen/full bed but it’s darker and smaller than the others.

Spacious with a Wonderful View
We have been coming to Sayuluta for 6 years now and this is the first time we have stayed here. The view from atop the hill was amazing. The property manager was very responsive when we needed the pool temperature turned up a bit. There are a lot of stairs in the complex, but not am issue for is as we always rent a golf car when in town. If you are staying in this upper unit, I recommend renting a cart and utilizing the upper parking lot if you want to avoid the stairs. Thank you Mary and Chelsea!

A great stay in Sayulita! Close to downtown amenities but much quieter!
We really enjoyed our first time in Sayulita. As others have said there are quite a bit of stairs to navigate from the beach to the unit but honestly we didn’t find it to be a huge deal (ages 2-74). We found it to be a great workout at the end of the day. One thing to know is that we rented a 6 seat golf cart and the rental company wouldn’t let us park on top of the hill (sounds like a four seater would have been no problem). We had a very minor maintenance issue with the unit and both the property owner and manager where very quick to respond and make the situation right. We would definitely recommend staying at this unit to enjoy Sayulita. Also highly recommend getting a golf cart during your stay!

Indiana Jones Meets Beach Paradise
Be warned that renting this unit you definitely do need the all-terrain golf cart rental! We are so glad we rented that because the views from this unit and the private pool were perfect. We swam every morning and every night. It was heated and just ultimately perfect for my girls weekend getaway. The place itself is huge, I unfortunately never made it to the pool but it looked beautiful. The host was easy to contact via Whatsapp and also helped us arrange taxi service when we left for the airport. We definitely had a good laugh every time we drove up the hill - we called it the Indiana Jones ride of Sayulita. So if you've been to Disneyland you'll know how bumpy of a ride/drive this hill will be!

This property is huge and spacious. It has everything. It’s own pool as well as the public pool. Hugs terrace with beautiful views. Everything you need is in the unit. Very clean. Very comfortable. There is a tv in the living room but not the bedrooms. The owner and staff are super responsive and helpful. It’s on the top of the mountain hill. You must like to walk. There are many steps. Rent a golf cart to get up to the property. It’s a very steep rugged road.

Beautiful property
Th property is so beautiful. We had a huge front patio and ocean view. The interior was spacious and modern. It would have been perfect if only our washing machine had worked and didn't smell. We thought we would be able to walk back from town at night but that wasn't the case. We rented a golf cart and that solved the problem. There were no instructions for the TV. We were hoping to watch a movie at night. Our private pool heater was broken so we could use it. No matter, we had a great time with only slight disappointments.

Good, quiet location
The place is as described in the listing with the exception that the small heated pool was not clean and the heat did not work when we were there. This was disappointing for us because it was the main reason we chose this place over others. The property management was slow to respond to basic questions. The property owner was however very responsive and helpful. The location is quieter than other areas of Sayulita that we’ve stayed in and that was very nice. Its is a lot of steps - definitely use the steps and not the windy street to get to town. We learned that the hard way. Our daughter loved the shared heated pool in the common area.

Just okay
Place was comfortable but could use some upgrading. Views where great but Location would be difficult for someone who can’t walk hills. Apartment itself was difficult to access with heavy luggage and required lots of stairs to get to it. The safe box did not work so didn’t feel comfortable utilizing housekeeping. One of the showers had a huge wall that one had to step over to get in so it was inconvenient if you are short or have an injury. The washer did not work so this was a huge inconvenience when we had a load of wet clothes in there soaked with water. Pool was small but cute but water was too cold to use.

Awesome vacation!!
We spent some incredible days at Villa Alhelies . Area is huge with a spacious outside and decorated very nicely. It was very nice to find a place that had a heater in the pool because the weather was somewhat chilly and we wanted to enjoy the pool. We found everything we needed to feel just like home. The kitchen is fully equipped, excellent internet service, with a wide tv channel variety and chairs to take to the beach. The bedroom was one of the best parts of the stay. Bed was extremely comfy and the condo was nice and quiet. We could see the jungle from the deck and one day we even had a show from a group of birds that were migrating to the north, it was majestic!! We rented a golf cart so we didnt have any trouble going up and down the stairs. All the staff is always seeking for ways on how to help us . For example i needed to rent a cradle for my little niece and a high chair. Also Stacey and Vicky were so nice to us! We would definitely look forward to another visit at this Villas and we highly recommend it .

Great Spot for Family Vacation
We had a great time in Condo 801. Plenty of space for six of us to hang out. We liked being out of the main part of Sayulita. We thought the walk to town was not bad, but it depends on what you are used to. There are a lot of stairs, but again, if you are in somewhat decent shape, not a big deal. My 78-year-old mother-in-law did not enjoy them at all. There are a couple of elevators, but they only go up to certain floors. I personally found it easier/quicker to just use the stairs. Great shared pool area, although only the top pool is heated. The ‘hot tub’ was not hit during our stay. The small private pool for the condo is a nice addition. Great view from the rooftop area. The owner, Mary, was quickly responsive to all my questions before and during the stay. The other staff were helpful also. It is a short walk to the beach, with a good little place to eat/drink right on the way and a little bar right on the beach that we enjoyed having margaritas from.

Too Expensive for what you get
First off.....LOVE Sayulita!! We will return for sure! As for Villa Alheli, it was a fantastic location with a great community pool but, we felt as though we paid too much for what we got. There was obvious results of water damage, such as the crumbling walls, and the "third" bedroom, smelling of mould and being dark and dingy (our kids were scared to sleep in it.) The whole apartment actually had a smell to it. The bathroom sinks were literally falling off the wall and the bath towels that we received, most of them came with holes in them. The outdoor space was great and added a lot of extra space but the balcony, or lack there of for better terms was a little nerve racking with kids. Unfortunately we would not return to this specific apartment.... unless there are significant upgrades to service, presentation and safety. Or a huge change in price!

Morning Coffee with a stunning view of the Pacific!
We really enjoyed our stay in Sayulita at this condo. The property is accurately described. It is spacious and clean (except a little mold in the corners of the master shower) with a lot of natural light! The master mattress could probably be updated too. The private heated jet pool on the private patio was a super plus as our whole family enjoyed it daily. The sights and sounds of the jungle from our balcony were a real treat! There are a lot of steps to and from the comunity infinity pool, however it is totally manageable even if you're a little out of shape like myself. We rented a compact SUV as we wanted to explore the nearby beaches and towns and our car made it up the steep hill to the top parking lot without an issue. We are a family of six, two adults, two teens and two school aged kids. The home suited our needs perfectly, the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare quick meals. We stopped by the Walmart on our way in from the PVR airport to get food and essential. The security staff was waiting for us to arrive at the front gate because our flight was delayed and we arrived to the property later than expected (after 11pm). The communication with management (Chelsie and Adrian) was really smooth and everyone on site was helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks so much!

Responsive hosts, great location/views
Loved being a little walk / golf cart ride from the heart of Sayulita. Amazing views. This is a condo, so there are others around you, and you share a backyard. While we had a great time and this home was ultimately fine for our group, there were a few things that happened: 1) no wifi. Which is expected in Mexico, but there was a lot of back and forth with Eric and Stacy. The hosts were nice and responsive, but I didn't want to spend my vacation time texting back and forth with them about the wifi, when I was also roaming on my own phone plan. Do NOT expect wifi if you're traveling here. A man came and tried to fix the wifi twice, and it did not work. 2) There was so much noise at night that we were woken up more than once. The noise sounded like construction that began at 2:30 am and went all the way to 5:30 am. We were confused as to what the noise was because construction in the middle of the night sounds weird, but there is no other reason for that type of loud noise. Once I texted Eric about it, the noise stopped the next night. It was odd. The sounds of the waves are a nice touch though we could barely hear them over the noise. Eric was very helpful in planning transportation and helping to schedule our AllyCat sailing cruise. Stacy was helpful as well and super responsive throughout the trip.
