If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind in a blissful setting, look no further…read more We spent 5 days here with our 6-year-old daughter and all three of us loved every moment. Each member of staff is delightful and helpful and ready to assist in any way possible, from booking transportation from the airport to arranging a nanny (We loved Marina, thank you!). We had booked a two-bed room with ocean view but upon check in found out we had been upgraded to a 2-bedroom suite! WOW! Our room was massive. Upon entry to the room, we entered the secondary sleeping area, with 2 twin beds and a large closet and shelf system. just beyond that was the shower, sink, and toilet area. This area is fully stocked with a variety of soaps and shampoo and conditioner, everything you need is here. Heading through the next door, you enter the main sleeping area with a king bed, a sofa, dressers, a wardrobe and a desk. Every detail has been thought of, from a water dispenser and glasses to a vase of fresh cut flowers. Beyond the sitting area is your private patio, looking out and over Mar de Jade out to the bay. The resort itself is large enough that you don't feel on top of the other guests but not so large that you can't find your way around. The pool area is lovely, we definitely spent some time at the bar drinking the amazing cocktails being created (they also have a great selection of Mexican and imported wine and beer), and the dining room is the perfect place to dine or relax. I was a little worried about the buffet-style food, never-really enjoying them before BUT the food being served at Mar de Jade is top notch. There was a salad or fruit station for each meal and then a different prepared meal each day. There was almost always a vegan or vegetarian option, and they were several GF options as well. We loved Every. Single. Meal. The staff was super accommodating, and often made our daughter molletes, or plain scrambled eggs for breakfast if the days options were too much for her. I will note, that we were there as Hurricane Roslyn was passing by and that combined with the prior storm had washed most of the beachfront away replacing it with rocks, so we were unable to enjoy the private beach but did find time to watch the sunset from the hammock palapa. We walked into Chacala to enjoy the beach and definitely recommend visiting town at least once, even if the beach is back at Mar de Jade. Make time for a spa service too, we had the most amazing massages. Next time we'll check out more of their offerings but the 90 minute massages were perfect for 2 busy parents. All in all, we loved our time at Mar de Jade and can't wait to return!

The family-owned retreat is still run by founder Dr. Laura del Valle and her daughter Angelica, who've made a tradition of providing guests with a personalized, custom-coordinated vacation experience. While the food service, accommodations and other amenities are all top-notch, what's really interesting is how party-oriented folks can intermingle alongside the new-age types -- with mutual respect. There's just something about Mar de Jade that exudes love.

We also celebrated my husband's party here with friends, and the resort did an amazing job. From the delicious food to the beautifully decorated tables, every detail was handled perfectly. It exceeded all of our expectations, and I truly could not have asked for anything more. We can't wait to come back again!

To me there are two things that really make this hotel special- the fantastic owners and the amazing staff who are so hospitable and accommodating, and the tranquil environment. Once you come in off the street and head back to the bungalows. Also the grounds are meticulously cared for, the decor is fantastic and authentic Mexican, and the bungalows come equipped with mini fridge, coffee maker, toaster oven and microwave along with dishes, cups etc... Everyone goes above and beyond to make our stays relaxing and fun. The pool is great and usually very quiet. They also have Tommy Bahama beach chairs and umbrellas and beach towels that you can take to the beach which is a couple minute walk, so you don't have to bring any of this stuff or worry about renting it. If you're looking for a great experience give Hotel Vogue a try! They are simply the best!

First, there is the Hotel Vogue staff -- the most friendly, kind, helpful and knowledgeable staff you will find anywhere! The owner, Marv, felt like family immediately. He was so friendly and made it feel like home. The front desk staff, especially Kevin, were all so amazing and helpful with local recommendations and all round kindness. Let's not forget about Pinata...the cutest and most affectionate hotel pup you WILL EVER MEET!!! She made us smile every day and we were so happy she was constantly wagging around and giving us love. We felt so incredibly safe at Hotel Vogue. We often even found that we were leaving our bags out on our open patio for long periods of time because Hotel Vogue is so safe. They had someone at the front door always and a private security gate PLUS a coded door at night so that you always felt very safe. The facilities in this hotel are BEAUTIFUL. Everything is very clean, comfortable, spacious and you feel like you are in a private oasis when you enter. It's right in the middle of town, but you don't feel like it once you enter Hotel Vogue. The amazing plants and wildlife makes you feel like you are in a tropical paradise. The rooms are very spacious and extremely comfortable - they have made a beautiful space that is so authentic to the Mexican culture which is what we loved most. Even though the owners, Marv and Mary, are from Michigan, they have created the most authentic and beautiful space at Hotel Vogue. We cannot express how much we loved staying here for our honeymoon and NO DOUBT we will be back again! Thank you for everything Hotel Vogue!!

When we were ready to leave the next day we were chased down by the room attendant accusing us of stealing a towel!! So they wanted us to pay for it. The amount they asked for they could have bought a whole set of them. It turned out that because we had booked two rooms the kids simply left a towel in the wrong room!! No tact! No smiles, certainly no apologies! Nothing. I'm Mexican and I always feel proud when I hear people say that Mexicans are so warm and friendly. Im happy to say the staff at Aurora resort do not represent our people. But they make us look bad. There are a lot of other more economical places to stay and with much friendlier staff.

His wife on the other hand likes to argue with guests and blame them when things break or go wrong. We have been coming here for several years and only return because of the husband and the views. This place definitely leaves a lot to be desired, it could use an update and fix the locks on the doors and the holes in the windows. They allow A LOT of people into the 2bedroom bungalows. This trip we counted almost 12 in a two bedroom bungalow. That's fine, but when you have multiple bungalows all housing so many people it makes it extremely crowded and doesn't allow for all the guest to enjoy the pool or other amenities as the larger groups over power the small families vacationing. The management is not in control of their guests, the music is blaring into the late night/early morning with no consideration for other guests. The management lives on site so they should be able to hear what's going on. Guests partying all night, breaking beer bottles and making the ground unsafe for little ones to walk on. Like I said it's great when we get here early in the week and it's empty. It's when all the party people come out for the weekend that ruin the peaceful and beautiful atmosphere, add in the management that wants to fight about issues that were broken long before your arrival it makes for an interesting vacation. Will we be back who knows, maybe next year we will try for a new location.

I came here with a large group (renting out most of the space), so we basically had the entire place to ourselves. That means access to 2 huge pools - one more private and one overlooking the water, the main kitchen area with a large outdoor dining/activity space, the beach on our doorsteps (chairs included), and beautiful rooms - each of which had not 1 but 2 balconies overlooking either the water or the trees. Each room also had a large bathroom, sizable kitchen area with plates, cutlery, and a coffee machine, and a living area. Pretty good for the price we paid. On the property there were tons of showers and faucets to get the sand off which was much needed since we spent a lot of time doing beach or pool activities. The hotel staff was so sweet and really made us feel safe and at home. Nelson walked around the grounds and always asked if we needed help, both day AND night. Talk about wonderful service. We ate a few meals in town, which is walking distance from the property. During the day, we walked along the beach. At night, we opted to walk through the neighborhood (we had a big group, but use your own discretion since some parts are not very well lit). Either way, it's about a 10 minute walk or 5 minute golf cart ride (you can rent one here if you'd like). If you're coming from PVR airport, an Uber ride will set you back about $40 USD, which is pretty good considering the ride itself is about 40 minutes without traffic. You can also rent a cab through the hotel but that's a bit more expensive - probably about $10 or $20 extra. Still worth it, I think. The rooms and property were pretty spotless, but we had a few instances of critters getting in, so just be mindful about leaving your windows and doors open. Everyone on the property speaks English so don't fret if you don't speak Spanish. When you check in, they'll place a $50 USD charge on your card for a beach towel (I guess people have stolen them in the past). When you check out, just hand in your towel and room key and the money will be refunded to your credit card. We really had a wonderful stay. I can't say enough good things about Casablanca Sayulita.

This intimate boutique hotel…read morebrilliantly coupled the bohemian flair of Sayulita with the more luxurious aesthetic travelers wander to its neighboring towns for. While we are not ones to seek luxury over experience, Avela made certain that on this trip neither had to be the choice. We were immediately greeted by the warm staff, given a tour and shown to our rooms. All questions were answered and we were left to enjoy the peace and quite the property offers just a seven-minute walk from the bustling town square. Immediately impressed with the chic room decor, the only reason we paused from admiring was that we sat on the bed and were surrounded in total comfort. The cloud-like bed, silence, and hum of the air conditioner drifted us to a post-travel little siesta. Feeling fully relaxed we headed out to the true gem of Avela, the pool area. The open design, while welcoming, feels truly like your own oasis. Comfortable chairs line the geographically gorgeous cool water refresher and a jacuzzi feature sits at either end. You can easily waste the day away in solitude or the friendly staff will prepare a delicious selection of fresh, light, cool food. The Tuna dish and guacamole are out of this world ..... and the 'chip' they use is​ something we can't stop talking about. Post pool day, dinner is served at any of the restaurants in town. From taco stands to high-end Italian or our MUST-DO first and last stop for pineapple & basil gelato; the quaint little town is always a fiesta and a quick and easy walk away. Overall Avela was perfect for us. Close enough to town that we could come and go at our leisure but just far enough out that it's liveliness wasn't a distraction late at night or early in the morning. Avela is also the perfect collaboration of Sayulita's art driven, surfer saturated, gypsy escape with the luxury and plush comfort of a larger resort while still keeping a very specialized approach. The third time was the charm for our visit to Sayulita as we now have a place we'll call 'home' whenever we visit.
