    🏡 Accommodation Options

    🌴 Option 1: Sayulita – Steps from the Beach

    You’ll stay in my cozy Mexican cement home, also used as a bnb, perfectly located just half a block from the ocean in the heart of Sayulita.

    The space is a converted studio built from one-third of our three-car garage — location is key, small but comfortable, and designed for simplicity. It features 14-foot ceilings, queen bunk beds, a small sitting area, and a kitchen with a table.

    The kitchen includes a refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, dishes, and a two-burner stove for cooking. If you’re missing something, just ask — we’ll help you find it!

    The studio opens directly to the street (no yard or garden), but the beach is your backyard — just steps away for swimming, surfing, and sunsets.
    The airflow through the top and bottom of the garage door keeps the space naturally cool and breezy year-round.

    ✨ Best part: Out the door and to the left — you’re minutes from the ocean, jungle paths, and everything Sayulita has to offer.
