It is beautifully appointed throughout with little details like fine linens, special beach towels, surfboard rack/station, and an immaculate garden make it extra special. The made-to-order sit-down breakfast alone is a huge value. But the highlight is Martin, the hardest working man in the hotel business, he makes you feel like you're a visiting foreign dignitary. He and his staff repeatedly provided the perfect amount of attention; not too much and not too little. ##### Luis Stayed 10 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jolie Jan 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Wonderful hosts, clean, safe. ##### Jolie Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leanne Mar 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Our stay here was amazing!

The hard-working staff was very pleasant and it was a joy to walk into our lovely super-clean room at the end of a busy day. Martin, the manager, was helpful, no matter the request. The room was spacious and the little kitchen had everything necessary to prepare a meal. Only 5 minutes walk or less, to the beach and the town! If I had to come up with one suggestion, it would be to add grab bars in the shower. Otherwise, it’s a lovely oasis! ##### Maurice Stayed 21 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Dec 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication It was very clean, quiet and the bed was comfortable.

So relaxing and great to come to after the hustle and bustle of the town! The staff were absolutely amazing and very helpful. We will stay here every time we come to Sayulita ##### Joseph Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Donald Nov 2, 2024 Liked: Amenities Am amazing place. We will be back.

Martin and his staff treat their guests like family. The property was well kept, in great condition, and very comfortable. Downtown is a short walk and it was nice to be a little outside the busy area. The neighborhood felt safe and the itself was a little oasis. Also, the daily breakfast offered a variety of options and was delicious. I would definitely recommend. Thanks for a great stay! ##### Dustin Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### P May 30, 2018 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Hotel of silence The property is beautiful. Room was nice except no TV. Was not allowed to make any noise. Was our first vacation and last one for that hotel. They take all day to clean the rooms. Even though there was only four rooms with guest in them. After a long couple days on the beach you want to relax in ur room by watching some TV and couldn’t. They told us they had TV by pool but when we asked it wasn’t connected. So this was not a good stay. ##### P Stayed 4 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan Aug 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Amazing hotel We stayed at Casa de la Ballena during our recent 10 day Sayulita trip and absolutely loved it. The location of the property is less then a five minute walk into town, so no need for a golf cart unless you plan to explore further out. For as much noise as there sometimes is around the town, our experience while in the hotel was always extremely peaceful and quiet. The entire property always felt clean, safe and really secure. The pool was a perfect place to lounge on the days we didn’t want to hangout at the beach and kept us cool in the heat. From 8-11am you’re also welcome to join on the patio for breakfast and coffee, which was included in your stay and really delicious. You’re provided a small menu of options, spanning from pancakes and bacon to chilaquiles, and everything was super yummy. Martin and his staff are incredibly polite, accommodating and take a lot of pride in the property. The place was even more beautiful then the photos led on. I highly recommend staying here and plan to make it our regular spot from now on. ##### Megan Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea Jan 13, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Mi experiencia en este hotel fue excelente. Desde el primer momento, la amabilidad del personal y la calidad del servicio marcaron la diferencia. Las instalaciones son muy limpias, bonitas y bien cuidadas. La habitación era muy cómoda y estaba perfectamente equipada, especialmente la cocina, que resultó muy práctica durante la estancia. El desayuno incluido fue otro gran punto a favor: variado y realmente delicioso. Adema la ubicación es perfecta puedes llegar a la playa caminado en 10 min pero está alejada del ruido del centro. Sin duda, es un lugar al que volvería y que recomiendo totalmente. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/65f031d4-42f2-4065-b56a-f6abdcfcb520-1768342210847.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Andrea Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Luis Edgar Nov 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Great place ##### Luis Edgar Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Decameron La Marina Guayabitos, Ramada All Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Rincon-De-Guayabitos-Hotels-Decameron-La-Marina-All-Inclusive.h36754452.Hotel-Information) > > [Secrets Bahia Mita Surf & Spa -
