Puerto Vallarta Airport
Sayulita is about 45 minutes north of the Puerto Vallarta airport. We highly recommend booking a shuttle through our Property Manager Lucia luciavalencia@prodigy.net.mx who will have an air conditioned, large capacity shuttle van awaiting you at the airport exit. They will make any stops you require on the way out of PV to Sayulita (Costco, Walmart, Mega, etc.) and they are professional, punctual and the most affordable option for large groups. This also makes for accurate check in as Lucia will know your exact time of arrival and be able to be at the house waiting for you to go over anything you will need and give you the keys.
Driving Directions
When you are coming from PV, the turn off the highway into Sayulitawill be on the LEFT. Drive about 1 mile in and you will see shops and the town of Sayulitabegin and there are 3 streets before you cross the bridge. Take one of the first 2 to the RIGHT (towards the water) and drive about 2 blocks (until you can't go straight any further or you will hit the water). This is Palmer Avenue. Turn RIGHT (North) on Palmer Avenue and follow it (parallel to the beach) for about 6 or 7 blocks (staying to the left at the fork by the school) until you see the driveway on your LEFT marked 92 CASA GALLO/EL TEMPLITO near the end of Palmar Ave.The driveway is steep and goes down around a corner before the house comes into view. THE ENTRANCE TO THE CASITA IS ALONG THE FAR NORTH SIDE OF THE HOUSE. Lucywill be waiting at the house to let you in and go over everything when you arrive!
House Access: Check in (4pm)/Check out (10am)
Lucia, our property manager, has the keys and will need to know the approximate time of your arrival to the house so that we can arrange for her to meet you there, give you the set of keys and go through the house with you. Check in time is 4pm and check out is 10 am. Please let us know if you need to make arrangements outside of these times and please understand that we must adhere to these times as we often have same day arrivals and need to be sure that we have ample time to have the house fully prepared for you but this is not always the case and then we are more than happy to be flexible with those, please just ask us first!
Getting Around
Downtown Sayulitais a short 15 minute stroll down either the road or beach. The driveway is steep but there is ample parking provided for rental vehicles or golf carts. We ourselves rent golf carts for our stays, it makes quick trips to town a breeze, the kids love it and beats carrying a case of Corona home by hand! We use Pacific Coast Golf Carts in Sayulita, you can book online with them and they can have your carts waiting at the house for you upon your arrival.
Hiring a Chef
Please contact our property manager Lucia about the options of hiring her to cook dinners for you during your stay. There is also an excellent “catering” section of the Sayulita Life website with recommendations of local chefs for hire.
Cooking/Eating
We have tried to stock the house with everything you would need to cook yourselves meals as well as provide a few spices and extras in the cupboards for your stay. Of course, these will vary from renter to renter as things are used up and added with each family.
We recommend using bottled water for drinking but the tap water is suitable for dishes and cooking if boiled. As a general practice we also soak all our fruits and vegetables in an iodine solution Fill the sink with tap water and put about 10 drops of the solution provided into the basin of water, let soak for 30 minutes and dry before consuming.
Housekeeping
The housekeeping staff arrive daily (except Sundays & holidays). The floors, beds, bathrooms and pools will be attended to but we ask that the guests please assume responsibility for their dishes and common areas.
Wifi
There is wireless internetat the house but please remember this is MEXICAN WIFI! It works wonderfully some days and not at all other days but we do our best to have top quality modems and routers at the house to help enhance the service when it is available.

Security
Please take care to lock your personal belongings in the safes provided! Always lock ALL doors, windows and patios when you are leaving the house and is even a good idea when you are down on the beach or lower patio and not watching the house and to lock bedrooms doors behind you, even when home. We do not take responsibility for any lost or stolen items.

We were completely blown away by how huge the common spaces were and how unbelievable the view was from every angle. We rented casa Gallo for one week in June for a family reunion of 11 people and spread out on 3 floors, we never felt crowded. What a luxury to have Biki come and clean up everyday and have Ismael around to take care of the outdoor space. The multiple level pools were so perfect for our kids ranging from 2 to 10 that I have been inspired to try to build one in my yard now! There is a wonderful space with loungers right next to the ocean under palm trees shade which proved to be the most relaxing place to read a book. Overall the experience was Fantastic!!! and I would love to go back year after year!

We recently enjoyed a luxurious and relaxing week vacation at the gorgeous Casa Gallo and Casita Del Mar. This is in a picturesque Mexican setting, oceanside with amazing views of the open water, the long sandy beach, crashing waves and the town of Sayulita can be seen along the beach. The rooms were all clean comfortable and cool with air conditioning in each room. The rooms were secured with locks on the doors and a safe in each room. The pools were clean relaxing and refreshing. All kitchen amenities were available so that we could cook at the house. The main kitchen and living space can be opened up and together with the large deck provide an indoor outdoor feel. It is a short five minute golf cart ride into town, easy, convenient and fun. The staff were responsive and helpful with any and all questions throughout our stay. We cannot wait to come back and will definitely return to this beautiful vacation home again!

Ryan (Phoenix, AZ)
Our stay at Casa Gallo was incredible! We had a large group of family and friends, and there was plenty of room for all. We loved how open the home was and that the sound of the ocean could be heard from our bedroom. Lucie and her cleaning staff were very attentive and kept the home spotless throughout our stay. We enjoyed the pristine beaches and the private location of the home. Ross was extremely accommodating and responsive to requests prior to the trip. We will most certainly be back!
Sarah (Seattle, WA)
Six of us recently stayed at Casa Gallo for a mother/daughter trip and we could not be more pleased with the accommodations! The bedrooms are all spacious, the outdoor living space is enormous, and the kitchen was fully stocked from coffee mugs to frying pans. The house manager Lucy is attentive and helpful and Vicki showed up every morning with a smile on her face and kept the house the cleanest rental I have ever stayed in. All six of us would highly recommend a stay at Casa Gallo!
Alicia (Lyons, Colorado USA)
Casa Gallo was the perfect place for our group of friends. Right on the beach with amazing lounge areas, a great deck and kitchen. The bedrooms were lovely and clean and the staff was amazing. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with all of us!
