Pros:

Because of political unrest we decided to cancel our trip. We were eligible for 1/2 refund when we decided to cancel. The hotel was very generous in giving us a full refund. For that they deserve a high rating!

Perfect spot in town, but far enough away to be a peaceful retreat with a great breakfast!
Pros:

Oh! Where to start… the rooms were fantastic! Having filtered water out of the faucet is a game changer! The kitchenette was well stocked, we blended our smoothies and made snacks everyday. The breakfast was also a nice treat! They had espressos drinks, fresh fruit, yogurt and cereal. PLUS, the choice of hot meals (Chilaquiles, omelet, pancakes, huevos rancheros and more). The pool was a nice place to unwind each day with plenty of areas to lounge. It’s an easy five minute walk to the main square and about the same to the beach. Close enough to be in the action far enough a way to sleep quietly and comfortably. This will be the only place we stay in Sayulita when we come back.

The staff is also WONDERFUL.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing

Pros:

Todoo me gustó...es un lugar tranquilo y a la vez cerca de todo. Bello lugar, bien mantenido. Todo funcionaba ok. La atención de Martín con cualquier cosa que necesites es impecable, muy preocupado de todo. También los chicos del aseo y las personas de la cocina. El desayuno deli y variado. La presencia de animales (las perras) aportan sensación de familiaridad. Lo recomiendo!!

Outstanding service and relaxation
Pros:

Perfect location with all the amenities you need to enjoy a short or long stay. The property manager, Martin, was exceptional — he was dedicated and kind, with a great sense of humour. The two dogs were also a wonderful addition!

The rooms were kept extremely clean and tidy. The breakfast was convenient and relaxing.

Casa de la Ballena is an oasis of simple luxury in the heart of Sayulita
Pros:

There was so much I loved. The location was perfect, being near the town centre, but just far and private enough to be quiet. The grounds are absolutely stunning; it was a pleasure to just spend time at the pool or on the patio, taking in the beautiful courtyard, day or night.
The staff were incredibly welcoming and kind and take so much care in what they do.
The water filtration system at the kitchen and bathroom sinks meant that we never had to think about water, we just filled up our glasses or bottles. Having stayed other places in Mexico on our trip, this felt like an understated luxury.
Everything was immaculately clean. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchenette was well-appointed with everything you’d need and the room had thoughtful closet space that made our lives easier not having to live out of our bags.
Everything here felt like it was chosen with thought and intention. We always remarked upon returning from our day’s adventure how happy we were that we chose this place as it just felt like coming home to a beautiful retreat with everything we needed!
