Best family holiday

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was close to the beach and all the restaurants. We cooked a lot of our meals and we really appreciated the kitchen and the BBQ outside. Frank was quick to respond about any issues. Everything went really smooth and we'd be happy to return.

Hill top retreat

We had 6 adults, this property was clean and private. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and rooftop terrace. The property manager was quick to respond and very helpful. Sayulita was busy, so we appreciated the privacy of our own space. Make sure you are prepared to walk or golf cart up hill, it is pretty high up!

Great location

This property was perfect for our family. The location was a short walk to the plaza and many restaurants. We appreciated the cleanliness of the property and the comfortable beds. The only thing that was a disappointment was that a pool table was advertised, but it has been removed. The listing should have been updated to reflect that change.

Enjoyed our stay

Overall house was great for our family. FYI, there is no longer a pool table on the top deck. The fountain into the pool was lovely but only ran 15 minutes a day. The property manager was responsive but didn't meet with us as indicated and due to holidays we needed to buy a great deal of bottled water as the amount delivered was inadequate for our family.

Really nice home close to central Sayulita

8 of us enjoyed our stay in Sayulita. The pool and rooftop deck were great. Frank was very helpful arranging transportation. Breakfasts were terrific. The only negatives were that for the older members of our group the walk up the hill from town was pretty hard. And it was really hot (in fairness, we knew both of these might be problems) Plus, it can get pretty noisy late at night, especially in the upper bedrooms. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

Fantastic Trip

Our group of 7 came down to Sayulita for a wedding. The location is close to Downtown and the beach. Highly recommend getting golf carts just for the ease of traveling. The house is clean and meet all of our expectations. Marta made sure breakfast was ready for us before we headed out for the day. House was always clean when we returned. Pool is maintained daily. The only thing that might concern some people is the music you hear nightly from town while youre outside. Our group enjoyed it as we drank late into the morning anyways. Frank was easy to communicate with and addressed our needs quickly. I highly recommend Casa Cariño on your next trip to Sayulita. The family of the bride and myself were very pleased and Im sure you will be also.

Stunning property!

From the very beginning Frank made sure we had everything we needed from transportation, to the golf carts, to the chef! Just fabulous. The views are stunning from this house. You have a perfect view of the the beach to the mountains. Rosa was amazing…she made all the breakfast in the morning and each day it was delicious. The pool table and putting green provided a ton of entertainment. The house is very close to town which made it so easy to get around. The place was well stocked. Plenty of kitchen supplies and towels. Beautiful art work all around. We loved our stay. If I were going to comment on anything negative (which isn't much) would have been the pillows and we wish the pool was heated as it was cool at night. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay immensely. For sure we would stay again.

Lovely home

We spent a week here mid February. The house is quite lovely with fantastic art, comfortable beds and a a nice heated pool that is essential in February. Service was great and Ernesto helped us with several arrangements that were cheaper and top notch! The patios were very comfortable for the 4 of us. Also the house is on the side of town that gets shade in the late afternoon which was great in the heat of the day. A couple of cons - there is no oven. A gourmet kitchen should include an oven. Also it was lacking in cookware. One 8 inch fry pan was insufficient for the 4 of us. If you had a larger group than 4 cooking would be too problematic as everything seems to be sized for 2. Not to worry I bought a set of larger fry pans so if they keep them in the house future guests can at least fry more than 2 eggs at a time. Noise does seem to drift directly up from the couple of loud bars that are just down the hill. It did not bother us but if you require silence it might. Sayulita is a great beach town and we would definitely stay here again.

Sayulita Stay, Lessons Learned

The property manager did not meet us at the house as stated. Our August vacation was interrupted by a 14-15 hr. electricity outage. Even though the contract indicated frequent outages the house was not stocked to deal with this. With no A/C, fans or running water (think toilets), we couldn't find flashlights, there were candles no matches. The property manager was very responsive via texting, but was not familiar with some of the details of the house...like how to lock the doors, codes for the outer gate (which never worked...luckily there was a security guard in the street on our first night out who had the correct code). I would not rent a house in Sayulita that doesn't have a back up generator. Even tho our contract indicated no refunds, we were disappointed to not receive some compensation. The owner did offer a night out for dinner/drinks, but we ended up having to relocate early due to the discomfort. The electricity did come back on shortly after we left. With steady electricity ...no guarantees...(or back up generator) and an onsite property manager to greet us and show us around it would have been a totally different experience.

Absolutely incredible

Everything was seamless! The check in form they provide for you to fill out weeks prior your stay is all accommodated for right when you arrive. From the golf cart rental company coming, airport pickup and breakfast the next day. The owner was in contact from the first day to make sure everything went smoothly from finding the house, to ensuring we needed and had everything we needed. In addition he answered any recommendations and tried to find us a last minute chef despite us not filling that out on the form weeks prior. The cleaning crew is thorough for both the rooms/house and pool. It made vacation a true vacation! My young kids 3 and 6 did not want to leave. It was an Incredible pool, the beach was easily walking distance for them both down the hill! I would recommend this house in Sayulita over and over and over again!

Amazing getaway!

We came to stay here with 2 other couples over thanksgiving. The bedrooms are all private and have their own bath which was great for all of us. The outdoor area is amazing day or night and the music from the Town is so lively! Town is a short walk away and there are tons of fun things to do. Ernesto was an amazing host and was able to arrange a suburban to take us to and from the airport. Fidel, The driver even stopped at multiple spots on our way into town so that we could get all of the food and beverages for a few days. Ernesto checked in on us daily and was very attentive. There was always a purified water delivery daily, and cleaning help whenever you ask for it. We asked if there was a grill on the property to cook up some Mahi mahi we bought at the market, and Ernesto was kind enough to assemble and bring over an amazing outdoor grill for us! So you will be able to grill your own food here too if you don’t want to go into town. Would come back and stay here anytime! Would highly recommend to anyone. The rooftop view can’t be beat!

Beautiful home in a beautiful town!

I cannot begin to express how lovely our experience was at Casa Carino! The house is gorgeous, incredibly furnished with comfortable beds (even great pillows!), beautiful art, lovely kitchen, perfect pool... Ernesto is fantastic, and every other person we came in contact with was wonderful. One teeny tiny suggestion - which is in no way a reflection on the owners of this home - is to bring ear plugs if you plan to go to bed before 2am. The sound of dance music from town floats right up the beautiful hillside and into the the upstairs bedrooms at night (even with doors closed and sound machines on). I imagine this is the case for any of the homes that are up above the town. An easy trade off, though, to have that view, be walking distance to EVERYTHING, yet still have a removed and very private feeling space. I hope to be back soon!

Great location, but issues with house and town

The location and house were great - the pool was great, most of the staff were prompt and helpful, and the location was ideally one block off town and beach. Unfortunately, we had a burst hot water pipe for our entire stay, so no hot water. Limited response from the managers until our last day there, where they jackhammered the side of the house for 2+ hours. Also, unrelated to the house but certainly related to the glowing description the owners give this town: February has a county fair in town, and an MC/music BLASTED up the hill to the house every night until ~1am. Earplugs and white noise still didn't fully cut the noise. Finally, generally, read other reviews of Sayulita before traveling there, particularly regarding the unignorable trend of sickness clobbering the town. It must be the sewage and overpopulation of the area - whatever it is, our entire party got sick, as did the entire house next door (we all drank filtered water, were super careful, ate different things, etc). Having traveled to Mex, Bali, and several other 3rd world areas without any issues in my life, I'll unfortunately be advising everyone who will listen to stay away from Sayulita until they address this pervasive sewage/sicness outbreak in the town.

Perfect for our small family~lovely staff~ideal location!

My husband and I spent the week of New Years at Casa Carino with our 7 and 9 year old kids. It was the perfect home for us. The house is exactly how it is portrayed in the pictures. Just lovely! Kathleen and Dennis were so easy to work with from beginning to end. The location of the house was ideal. We utilized the path from the cul-de-sac to town/beach everyday. My kids weren't bothered by the incline at all. We rarely used the golf cart we rented as we were already so close to things. The pool was a great break from the beach. Daniel, the pool man and landscaper, was so nice! He even opened coconuts for the kids one day. Katia, the housekeeper, was so kind and went above and beyond to run to town and get some things for us. Ernesto was great too! He helped us out big time when our luggage didn't arrive by coordinating with the delivery service so we could go about our day. The 3rd floor terrace has a stunning view of the beach and town. We would definitely stay here again or have a larger group and rent one of the other homes they own. For those of you with young kids, the bedrooms on the second floor only have external entrances, which I thought would make me feel uneasy. But it turned out that it wasn't a big deal from a mother's perspective. I was anticipating noise coming from town as we were there during one of the busiest weeks of the year. It would have been an issue a few of the nights had we not used a white noise app. Most of the week we slept well with just the sound from the air conditioner. Highly recommend this home for 2 couples or a small family!!

Fantastic place

This home is not only beautiful but really well equipped with all the amenities, and only a 5 min walk to the town square. The property manager was more than helpful on a few occasions and the staff was really pleasant. Renting a golf cart is a good idea to get to the quiet part of the beach for example, but not necessary. You'll love it there!!!

Fantastic Location

Casa Carino is a fantastic property located on a small hill on the south side of town. It is an easy 3-5 minute walk down a really nice, winding path to town and the beach. The town can be noisy at night, but the bedrooms at Casa Carino are well sound proofed. We never heard a thing. The rooftop deck has great views and the pool area is private and secluded. Overall we had a great experience at the house and love the location.

Spectacular property and amenities

Loved this property. It was recently redone and is like new. The artwork and decor was very impressive as well. It was a short walk down the hill to the beach and downtown area and we realized that a golf cart was not necessary as the walk through the landscaped path was very enjoyable. The air conditioning in every room made the house very comfortable. The pool was also very nice and utilized every day. Ernesto was very responsive to our call when the power went out due to work the local utilities dept was doing. He met us onsight when we arrived, walked us through the property and arranged all of our ground transport which was flawless. Anna, our housekeeper was also spectacular and thorough in her work. The nightime festivities in town were not noticeable when the doors were closed. My four teenager daughters were unanimous in that this was among the top, if not the top vacation we've had. The accommodations certainly contributed to a fantastic experience. When we go back to Salyulita we will absolutely want to stay at one of Dennis' properties. We are lucky to have found him and them! Until we see you again Salyulita and Casa Carino.

Thanks for sharing your slice of Paradise!

Our jaws dropped when we arrived. The perfectly manicured gardens, the crystal-clear pool, the palapa roofed architecture, and the privacy were just what we needed for a perfect vacation. We were nervous to even go, as we heard many reports of norovirus running through Sayulita. But upon check-in, Ernesto (who was so responsive, if we needed anything!) reassured us with a list of safe restaurants to visit and reminded us that the daily housekeepers clean thoroughly with bleach, the house has a filtration water system along with purified drinking water, and we also used the poolside grill and beautiful kitchen for cooking at home. Needless to say, we ate well and didn't get sick! We were also nervous about going during Semana Santa (holy week) as we heard that the town becomes inundated with masses of people. Yes, there were lots of people, but we found everyone to be so friendly, it was just one big fiesta. We especially enjoyed all the mariachi bands throughout town and were so relieved to learn that, thanks to the triple-paned windows, we couldn't hear the noise from inside the house. The walk to town and the beach was down a short, beautifully landscaped path--so close--we even felt comfortable letting our teenage boy head to town by himself for little shopping/taco indulging sprees. Overall, we learned that splurging a little more to stay in a high-quality vacation rental, such as one of these Dreamer Circle Properties, can mean the difference between a perfect vacation and a sleepless nightmare. We can't wait to go back!!

​Our journey to Sayulita was serendipitous. We both grew up in cold and snowy Minnesota. When our oldest son was tasked with planning a family trip in 2016, he picked Sayulita without knowing we had always had this place on our bucket list. Our entire family immediately fell in love from the moment we arrived. The vibe, pace & all the wonderful community of this quaint fishing village are beyond incredible. We’ve stayed in many homes from the north end to the south end and finally decided that Casa Cariño was the place for us! The architectural detail and attention to design of such lovely spaces makes this the place to stay. Our staff are amazing and create a culture of service with every guest. We hope that your trip here leads you on your own serendipity path. We are thrilled to offer our home for others to enjoy the very best of Sayulita. Just know, once you come to Sayulita, you may never want to leave. ​

If you are looking for that truly special vacation experience in an exceptional tropical estate, look no further. We certainly feel there is no better place to stay in all of Sayulita for the discriminating vacationer.
