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.

SpringBreak 2025

We came to Sayulita for my son's spring break—he’s 15—and had such a great stay. Efren was incredibly helpful, arranging transportation from the airport and personally greeting us when we arrived. He even met us again on our departure day to help carry our bags, which was such a thoughtful touch.The condo was stunning. We loved the private pool and the spacious patio with breathtaking ocean views—perfect for watching the sunset every evening. While we didn’t use the kitchen, it was beautiful and fully stocked with everything you’d need.This particular unit is located in Tower 5. If you park your golf cart near the front entrance, be prepared for quite a few stairs to reach the condo—but we didn’t mind at all; it was good exercise! They also have some parking available at the top, which minimizes the stairs if needed.We had a wonderful experience overall and would absolutely love to return and rent the same unit again. The only minor issues were that the jets in the pool weren’t working, and the tub in the master bath appeared dirty (though it seemed to just be stained).Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy Sayulita!

Beautiful location lovely property

The property and house were perfect! Lovely views and the house manager Efrén was very attentive. Initially the pool was cold and after a couple of days Efrén was able to turn the temperature higher. Slight warning that the beautiful view comes at a small cost of many steps to get up to the condo level. There are elevators but I had a heavy suitcase and groceries to contend with. It was just a surprise I would have liked to have been prepared for. Maybe would not have purchased groceries on way from airport. The owner was very gracious and accommodating. Kitchen fairly well equipped too!

The view!

The unit is spacious and beautiful. We enjoyed the large patio and private pool. Thankful we read the reviews about recommendating a golf cart rental. The hill getting to the unit is so steep and long there would have no way we could have walked it. Efren the manager was so helpful. He arranged our airport transportation and the golf cart rental. We were sad to leave and hope to return again.

Our first time to this part of Mexico- the place is perfectly located and easy walk to the beach. Communication with Efren was seamless.It was clean but not overly clean. The bathroom still had hair in the drain. We did check in early so maybe it was rushed.

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.

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.

The place was great and Mary was very responsive and easy to work with.

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.

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.

Mixed Experience

The unit itself is nice, spacious, great view and patio in the back, lots of windows. It could be awesome, with some updating and better maintenance. Unfortunately, it was not as advertised. The pool was not cleaned and the heating unit was not working, so it was not usable. The washing machine was broken, all four patio recliners were broken/not fully usable, the front door was very hard to lock/unlock, and the lock on the sliding door to the patio was essentially not functioning, and we had to rig up something to block the door from sliding when we were gone. From what we could gather, these were known problems, but had gone unaddressed and we were not notified in advance. The washer was finally fixed the day we left and for some reason the maintenance folks only repaired two of the recliners half way into our stay. Did this ruin our vacation? No. But it was definitely distracting, as we tried to chase these issues down and coordinate with the staff on site while we we should've be out having fun. I guess the advice I'd offer to others (aside from being prepared for MANY stairs) is maybe inquire in advance that everything is ok in the unit and working properly. In the end, the owner refunded one day's charge, which I'd say was the bare minimum appropriate for this situation.

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!

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.

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.

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!
