Bungalows Jaqueline

Staff is welcoming and helpful. Location is great. Hotel is a nice oasis in the middle of town. Pool is great but small

Bedding a little rough

This is a gem of a place - an oasis one block from the square in central Sayulita. Staff are friendly & wonderful. Be sure to get a bungalow right beside the pool - it’s mere steps away!

Being in central Sayulita means there’s street noise at night; bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper!

The location is close to downtown convenient for walking but inconvenient for parking. The gated guest parking is about 2km from the hotel so arrangements must be made in advance every time we planned a trip by car.

It was very noisy every night with loud bars in the area and a stage in the middle of town when we there. Usually too loud to sleep until 3am.

The people who worked there were super helpful with shuttling us and our gear to our car.

Beautiful property and excellent location.

Nothing

Good place to stay

I liked everything

Perfect location. Within walking distance to everything

The property was well managed, so cute and authentic and well kept up. No issues during ournstay at all.

Only think that would of been nice was a little more sun at the pool so maybe a few trees could be trimmed to allow more sun at pool. But given location part of the day won't have fun at pool.

We stayed here for five days with our two children (7&10). Central location was great. It is just one block away from Centro so it was not super quiet. We kicked the fan up at night and had no problems. If you are staying at n central Sayulita you are going to get bar noise….just part of the deal. Easy walk to the beach, shopping, meals, everything really.

Not much of a negative but we got a golf cart from a friend of the hotel. It got scratched overnight, it was a bit of a misunderstanding on both sides. No big deal but if you go this route, make sure you get a contract.

The pros: You are right downtown and a block from the beach. The entire hotel is super clean. Our room was always spotless. The staff were wonderful and can speak some English. Our bed was firm which we prefer so we slept very well. Our room had no outdoor space which was a bit of a bummer as we love sitting outside but there was a common area we used. Try to request a room around the pool as they have lovely patios.

The cons: if you like quiet, this is not the place. We like the hustle and the noise did not bother us. The place needs a bit of TLC here and there. Bare light bulbs and taps that need replacement. But nothing too serious. The architecture is lovely and very Mexican. We would stay again.

We love the property and location

Staff are so friendly

Great location, staff were great

I love staying here. It is quiet in the center courtyard and everything is very low key. I wasn't looking for a glitzy resort, but a place that was clean , comfortable, reasonably priced and with pleasant staff. I love the fact the I had the pool to myself.

The room we had was a bit dark because the only window was the sliding glass door, but that really didn't matter because I was out and about during the day.

It’s in the perfect location yet very secluded.

The water was out

This is our 3rd time staying here in 4 months. We love this place!

Could not be located more conveniently, steps from the central square and 3 minutes to the beach. Lots of great restaurants and shops right out the front door. Our room was incredibly spacious and super comfortable. The bed was really great, well appointed kitchenette and a nice little seating area. Despite being so centrally located, the property felt really safe and secure. We had zero issues with noise at night which was extra impressive given we were there during semana santa and there was a big sound stage set up in the square. Wifi was strong, which was great because my partner needed to do some work while we were visiting. The staff were warm and welcoming, always around with a friendly smile. We would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat and recommend it to anyone who is looking to be close to the action but values their privacy and quiet!

The location of the hotel was really great. Easy access to everything. Everything walking distance. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable (though for me, the pillows were a bit too hard). The kitchen space was stocked with the things we needed and it was nice to have a full-size refrigerator/freezer, a full-size microwave, and a 2-burner stovetop was a great bonus.

It would be nice if the pool was heated, but despite that, my husband and kids still had fun using it. There is some noise from a bar not too far away, but we had no issues sleeping through it. Some people may want earplugs though.

Location

Noise from traffic and the bar across the street

The best location, right in the middle of the city and close to everything. Love this hotel. So charming and the staff is welcoming and helpful!

We stayed a week and loved the location, one block from the plaza at the center of town and 3 short blocks from the beach. The bungalows themselves were a little oasis in the bustle that is Sayulita. Once we were through the brightly colored doors, with a smile from the front desk staff, we felt safe and comfortable, the lush tropical foliage a reminder of why we traveled to Mexico. The walls and foliage block out all distractions but the sounds of the village with music often playing until early morning. Fortunately, the rooms are sound proofed and a little white noise from the ceiling fan or a personal device allowed us to sleep soundly. Plus, there is always time for a siesta. The staff was ever present from 9A to 9P with whatever you needed and although most spoke little or very little English, all engaged heartily with whatever Spanglish/hand gestures/translate application efforts we put forth to ensure that our needs were met. Our room (a poolside 2-bedroom) was perfect for our family of 4. It included a full-size fridge (oft used for delicious leftovers), a little gas range and a microwave (unused) for cooking at the room, but the local cuisine was so plentiful, delicious & accessible, we did not prepare any meals for ourselves besides breakfasts.

These comments could be a positive for some and we loved our stay, but there were a couple of mild surprises you should prepare for. The small inner pool area, like all local pools, was unheated, which would be perfect in the heat of summer, but was less inviting during our stay in February where the temperatures were mid 70's, particularly since the pool area, because of its lush foliage, did not collect early morning or late afternoon sun. The pool area is a tight spot with walkways surrounding it, but it would benefit from a couple of lounge chairs rather than just the seated chairs that line it currently. Additionally, although the lodging provides parking, it is off-site (1/4 mile uphill walk) and locked (a benefit), but it makes your vehicle less accessible except through the staff. Honestly, however, renting a car was the largest mistake of our trip. For a relaxing Mexico vacation, you needn't leave Sayulita.

A very small, quaint jungle like setting. Quiet yet close to center.

It was all good

Nice n clean

Is close by everything

Location is fantastic. David goes above any beyond. Nikko was the best at keeping our area clean. All so friendly.

Can be noisy at night not hotels fault.

Location

A bit dated

The ambience

Price in relation to standard

Convenient location. Pool.

Water situation.

Fantastic location. Very clean and the staff was very friendly. We arrived early and they were accommodating and let us in the room.

The beds were quite firm but that is personal preference. Others may like that.

The open air feel of the kitchen/living room was great. Nice view of the pool from there to keep an eye on our kids. The water jug in the kitchen was a great touch so we didn't have to buy plastic water bottles. The kitchen had what we needed to make small meals. The staff was very nice and friendly. The location is excellent - if you like to be part of the party until late night. The property itself is quiet, but it is drowned in music from the clubs and bars.

The bathroom shower needed a bit of work. The water temperature was difficult to get right. There was a small leak at the hot water knob, so if you were not careful, you would get scalding hot water on your hand when you went to regulate the temperature. Given the excellent location, it is quite loud until very late at night. This might not be the place for you if you enjoy peace and quiet.

It would have been good 😊 f there was a coffee maker and coffee in the room. The restaurant was not open.

I was pleasantly surprised! It’s a charming little oasis in the heart of Sayulita. The location was excellent. Sayulita can be a little loud at night, but with the ceiling fans creating white noise, the street traffic was barely noticeable.

Great central location but quiet

Location, staff, comfortable bed, pool.

I would have liked screens on a window so we could leave it open. Kitchen sink water didn’t work but it was ok.

Convenient location, very walkable, close to beach.

- location - ambiance inside the property - pool

- view from our balcony (room 6)

This is a great hotel just steps from the plaza. David, the manager, was friendly and fun, and the rest of the staff were also welcoming and kind. It's right across the street from a lovely coffee/breakfast place as well. Love this place!

Not a thing

the facilities and location were excellent. David, the manager, was stellar.

nothing

very friendly and super close to the beach

WiFi and hot water could’ve been better but we realize that’s the way it is in most places in Mexico

location, price, spacious rooms w/kitchenette

6th visit and staff was much less hospitable than in prior occasions, unfortunately.

What breakfast?

It is a cute boutique hotel im downtown Sayulita within walking distance from the beach.

As it is right in the centre, it comes with some inconveniences: the traffic is hellish, lack of on-site parking and it can get a bit noisy.

close to everything

The bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly and accommodating. We also had the room with the Palapa Terrace overlooking the street, which was much brighter than the room first offered (had close up view of a drainage ditch). So it was nice to have somewhere to sit other than the bed. also good for people watching.

It’s hard to separate the accommodation from its challenging location. The upside of this location is that you are a block to the main plaza and it level ground (no climbing hills, which is common in Sayulita). The downside of this location, is you are in the middle of downtown Sayulita, which is crazy noisy 24 hours a day and packed with car traffic and pedestrian traffic. The smell of diesel and exhaust fumes is unfortunately constant. If I were to recommend this location, it would be to young 20-somethings who don’t plan on sleeping for the entirety of their trip (even w earplugs).

music was too loud

location is very convenient. all staff is very friendly and helped with all our requests.

Room 9, where we stayed for 5 nights was not what we expected - the mattress was very old and soft, there was no division between the shower and toilet and it was not well ventilated, so it got very muggy. For the last 2 nights the staff moved us to room 2, which was much more pleasant - spacious, airy and with a king size mattress that felt so much better than the first one. The bathroom was also more spacious and had a division for the shower. it is in the city center, so it is noisy until late in the night.

Pool was fantastic

Water jug might have been contaminated

amazing staff, great location, clean. would definitely book here again!

location was central to the town and amenities.

The noise from the surrounding area. We love music but there was some loud techno beat stuff that went on and on until 3 AM, making it very hard to sleep through it.

It's a funky place, cool design, very clean, friendly and helpful staff, comfy. With a small kitchen, fridge, bottled water, nice shower.

Loud music in the town kept us awake for hours, until about 3 in the morning. Very unfortunate. A couple more pillows would have been nice.

The location was so convenient, right in the middle of the action. During the day it was so nice, you walk off the busy street into a secret garden pool area surrounded by the bungalow rooms. Very lovely and beautifully Mexican.

The only problem was at night the nearby nightclub gets going and there’s a very loud bass thumping until past 3 am! This was a huge problem for us. we have small kids and wake up early. We requested to check out early because of this and the hotel agreed to refund us which was nice. But actually getting the refund was a huge headache. I recommend the hotel finds a way to sound proof the rooms a little better to deal with this noise issue.

excellent staff is amazing

Wi-Fi wasn’t reliable

The property is bursting with beautiful jungle foliage. The location is close to everything. The A/C worked great. The bungalow rooms have a shared outdoor kitchen/dining area that's really lovely. The pool is refreshing after a hit day walking around.

As most of Sayulita getting a hot shower depends on when in the day you shower. Hot water runs out quickly. There's not much to be done for that unless the entire town changes the water system.

Awesome, friendly, helpful staff - everyone was always smiling and seemed to legitimately enjoy working there. The vibe was warm and inviting - the pool surrounded by tropical foliage was paradise. Great design, lovely colours, lots of plants. You wanted to just sit there with a coffee and and read a book all day. Except you didn't because it was so centrally located, that there was a ton of stuff to do just outside the door. It was our favourite hotel on this trip.

We went in high season, and booked at the last minute, so it was a little pricey. Also - the town itself is LOUD. We were awoken one morning by a drummer who thought that 6:30am was a good time to start a loud, protracted solo in the main square, which is a half-block away. I would imagine most lodgings in Sayulita share this drawback. If you don't like it loud, I advise you skip this town, and head 15 minutes north to San Pancho...

very close to center of plaza and great walking around and close to beach

very noisy. no place to sit outside room with a view. nice pool but could not have coffee or drinks there very expensive

the location was great, clean and just beautiful.

The bed was the worst. Very old and uncomfortable

The location was amazing, steps from the plaza and the beach. The property was beautiful, bursting with gardens throughout. The pool was lovely and private. Room was clean. I loved the hotel and would stay there again.

It was loud at night, so bring ear plugs if you like to sleep.
