***Looking for an incredible vacation for your family, but Casa Ilusion is booked? Need more oceanfront bedrooms? Our sister property's renovation is finished! Take a look at Villa Pelicanos for an unforgettable stay. As seen in Architectural Digest, Mexico Villa Pelicanos is beautiful & beachfront in Sayulita's south end. https://www.vrbo.com/566023 ***

Casa Ilusion is the most beautiful beachside villa on the north end of Sayulita. Come relax in our serene indoor / outdoor palapa poolside living. Bring another friend or 2 – we’ve added another bedroom suite plus a tv/games/kids' room. Now, even more perfect for families and friends!

Casa Ilusion is a unique, luxury private beachfront home. Located on just under an acre of land with towering palm trees and 120 feet of beachfront. Ideally located on the quiet north side beach, The villa is a short walk to the town center. No car is necessary – restaurants, cafes and lovely Sayulita shopping are within an easy 5 minute stroll.

As soon as you enter Casa Ilusion, you will see through the beautifully appointed main house to the professionally landscaped, tranquil grounds & spacious lawn lush with magnificent palms to the ocean beyond. Relax under a palapa, umbrella, or in a hammock by the ocean, with the sounds of the waves and the sea breeze. Carry your board 200 yards up the beach to surf the left or right, or walk down the beach to dinner.

Casa Ilusion’s main house and casita are ideal for 5 couples. The five spacious, air conditioned suites, each with an ocean view, offer the highest level of comfort with luxury Frette bedding on king beds, all complete with their own en suite bathrooms. The new separate TV/games room can be converted to 2 twin beds for accommodating 2 children (kids only please!). This room is next to our first floor bedroom and can be configured as a family suite as needed.

In addition to the main house comfortably sleeping 8 adults + 2 children itself, there is a beautiful beachfront Casita, just steps from the ocean, which comfortably sleeps 3 (King + Single bed). The Casita is air conditioned 600 square feet - a real "Honeymoon Casita" suite with full bath, and a beautiful, open palapa style ceiling.

Stunning house, great location
Would highly recommend staying at this absolutely stunning house! It is such a great location, right across from great cafes and restaurants and on the north side which is more quiet and secluded but still so close to town. The owners helped us when villa oso cancelled on us last minute and were extremely helpful and generous! They saved the day for our wedding and our friends loved staying here. We would love to come back!

Best Villa Stay We Have Ever Had
This place is simply stunning. The owners were easy to deal with. Theo the property manager was fantastic and super helpful and the location is away from the buzz of town but close enough for a short walk:This was by far our favorite ever villa stay and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a great spot in Sayulita.Thank you!!!!

Family vacation
A much needed family vacation from ages 1 to 62. Casa Ilusion was everything we hoped it would be. Plenty of room for everybody. Can’t explain how amazing it is falling asleep and wake up to the sound of the waves crashing into the beach. So close to downtown. We rented golf carts but we found ourselves walking to town just as much. This house had everything we needed and the Property Manager Theo was quick to respond to our questions. Fidalina kept the house spotless and the grounds and the pool looked pristine everyday. Highly recommend for a large family or a large group of friends. Loves loved loved

Glorious Sayulita Property
Casa Illusion is perfecto! Theo and the local team of daily gardener and housekeeper were so accommodating and kind. Casita is marvelous and was used often for massage. Location/gated seclusion and quiet street made it a lovely experience for our family. Had a terrific photo shot by an amazing local/international photographer. We loved every day here. Cheers!

Amazing Vacation
I can’t rave enough about Casa Illusion! The house is beautiful with the most stunning ocean views. We could hear the waves every night as we fell asleep. The setup of the house is perfect for multiple families and/or friends. We have young littles (4,2,1) and the main floor room/family suite was so great for us. My kids loved being able to wake up and jump in the pool or walk right out to the beach. The location is fantastic! You are close enough to town to walk but also not right in the middle of everything which is great because it’s quieter/not as busy. The house is stocked with everything you can think of—all kitchen items, sand toys, beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, and so much more. There wasn’t anything I felt we needed while we stayed there. Fidelina and Ybiz are great and do a fantastic job every day. We also had Zuli out to cook 3 meals for us and that was worth every penny (also pretty inexpensive). The lattes and avocado toast are excellent from Bonito across the street. Plenty of options close by for a drink or massage. We did rent a golf cart but didn’t use it very much due to the excellent location of the house. Theo the house manager is easy to chat with and super helpful with anything you need or any questions you may have. We would come back here in a heart beat! One of the best VRBOs we have ever stayed at and it was an awesome family vacation! Thank you Theo and crew!

Perfect Sayulita
Casa Ilusion was the perfect Sayulita home for our party of 8 sdults and 5 kids, (ages 8 to 13). The home is absolutely beautiful, right on the beach, but far enough away from the bustle of town to be almost a private beach. The home had everything we needed to prepare meals but was within walking distsnce of town to go out for great restaurants as well. The house manager, Theo arranged everything to make our trip easy, including the transportation from the airport, renting a golf cart for getting around and insuring we settled into our Sayulita vacation. . You will not be disappointed with this property. Oh, and right next door is a quiet beach bar open evemings only for $1 tacos and tasty margaritas. Pull up a chair in the sand, order a pile of tacos with a great drink, watch the sunset, then settle back at Casa Ilusion, the most beautiful beachside home in Sayulita

Amazing Casa Illusion Experience
We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with our family of 10 at Casa Ilusion. From the moment we arrived, we were awed by the beauty of this home right on the beach in the north end of Sayulita. The pictures of the property do not do it justice. It was absolutely our best choice for our family celebration. Special thanks to Theo, the guest manager! He was so very helpful and incredibly responsive with our questions before we arrived. He was always available with suggestions about restaurants, private cooks, boat companies, transportation, including golf carts, and so much more. Thank you Theo most sincerely! We had two different cooks while we were at Casa Illusion. Doris Rivera is an excellent cook. We thoroughly enjoyed her tacos, rice and beans and also her fried red snapper dinner on another evening. Daniel Murillo was our chef for our last evening in Sayulita. He is beyond amazing with his menu choices! He is an artist in the kitchen and we were impressed with his presentations and flavors for our final dinner at Casa Illusion. It was truly a memorable experience. We sincerely appreciated Fidalina, the housekeeper and Ybiz, the gardener. They work so well to keep the home, pool, and landscaping so comfortable and beautiful. Don’t miss Eric and Odette at Bar Miramar right on the beach next to the house. Their cocktails and tastings were fantastic. Staying at Casa Illusion gave us so many wonderful and lifelong memories that we will always treasure.

Amazing Family Vacation
We had 6 adults and 3 kids (ages 3-6) at Casa Ilusion for a family vacation and it was beyond our expectations. Beautiful property with so many spaces to relax and listen to the ocean. We played on the beach, swam in the pool, and wandered into town. The staff was so helpful and we hired a cook for many of our meals. Everyone got to relax and enjoy themselves. Would definitely stay there again - for our family, it was a 10/10!!!

Unbelievable!
Casa Ilusion looked fantastic in the photos and it REALLY WAS!! This place provided the very best family vacation we've ever had! There were so many luxurious bedrooms, lots of bathrooms indoors and 2 outside, a beautiful warm swimming pool, huge livingroom, huge dining area, and fully-equipped kitchen. There was tons of 'play area' which included 3 outdoor patios, 3 hammocks, lawn, sand with sand toys, and the walkway that led right out to the beach! There were 12 of us: a grandma, 2 couples, an 18-year-old, a 27-year-old, an 8-year-old, 2 6-year-olds, and 2 4-year-olds. The kids were in the pool and at the beach every day. The adults bought margaritas next door on the beach and across the street and played cards every night. We walked into town for shopping, some meals, surfing lessons, and sight-seeing. Everyone of us had a GREAT time! We cooked most of our meals at the casa. One night we barbequed meat from the market. Fidalina, who comes to clean every day, was just wonderful! She is so sweet and efficient. We all loved her. Yviz, who cleans the pool and keeps the grounds looking like a pristine park, does an amazing job! He even brought us some cuts of aloe leaves for our sunburns! The whole week we kept looking at each other saying, "This is too good to be true!" The little ones cried when we had to go home.

10/10 if we could. This place was absolutely amazing. The location was great. Just North of the hustle, which we liked. Very peaceful. The house itself was incredible. The perfect setup for a group of friends or multiple families. The salt water pool, multiple gathering spaces, cleaning staff, gardener…it all adds up to a wonderful experience. And, Theo was very helpful making us feel at home as soon as we arrived. Highly recommend

Paradise with a view
Spectacular oceanfront property with best location. A little farther removed from the town square but completely walkable. The outdoor spaces are wonderful and the pool is heated. Some of the rooms do have a “damp” smell but once AC was turned on, it wasn’t noticeable. Housekeeper made coffee every morning which was a nice touch.

Beyond Expectations
Loved that the kitchen dishes magically disappeared each day, thanks to the lovely housekeeper. We walked across the street for healthy breakfast options at the boutique hotel that also offers yoga sessions. No need to bring your mat, there are plenty at the house. The grounds are spectacular, as well as the home. High end furnishings and bedding. We walked 10 minutes to town for dinner each night. Expect crowds in town. Casa Illusion is further towards the less busy north end (a big plus when it comes to the noise and traffic). The pool was clean, and perfect for our family and two-yr old grandson. We had eight in our group, and barely managed to take advantage of every sitting area the property has.
