This is one of the coolest properties we have rented and highly recommend it. You can tell a lot of love and thought has gone into the architecture and decoration from different regions of Mexico. The grounds and view is exceptional. A golf cart is necessary but it’s such a short ride into town. This home has all the necessities you need.Thank you Quinn and Leslie.

Another Amazing Stay

This was my second time staying here and it was just as amazing as the first time. Fully stocked kitchen, unbelievable star gazing, comfortable bedrooms, and fully stocked kitchen. My friends loved it and we are planning another trip so we can stay here again. Great location and amazing hosts!

This place is beautiful beyond description - amazing views of the jungle and ocean, it is a birdwatcher and botanist’s paradise. Our 3 year-old loved the pool. Eric was very helpful and a lot of fun to talk to. Local market, veggie/fruit stands and take out stalls obviate the need to go into town. Stop scrolling - this is the perfect place all around!

This was our second time staying at Villa Karuna. It is beautiful! The house itself is really nice and tastefully done with beautiful design and decor. The grounds and beach are stunning. The house is a quick taxi from town, but feels so excluded and quiet, except for the jungle sounds and birds which we love! Eric, the property manager is awesome and his kitties, Max and Sweet Pea are super sweet. This is definitely one of favorite vacation rentals ever, and we will be back!!

Spring Break Vacation

Excellent place to stay, away from the noise in town. Nice hike to beach below. We used a/c at night. Rent a golf cart or ATV from Kaliva Rentals. Host Eric was very helpful. Will stay here again!

Sunsets!

Wow, wow, wow! What a fantastic house. Easy to visit the town of Sayulita, but when you’re home it’s private oasis. I highly recommend having a chef come in to cook dinner and fully enjoy the sunset.

I would give it 10 stars if I could

This property was off the beaten path enough to feel like a private luxury vacation but close enough to town for all the modern conveniences. View was breathtaking. House was perfectly positioned on the bluff with 180 degree open air view. We hired a private chef for the week and really could not imagine a more relaxing vacation.

Beautiful Villa Karuna

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this beautiful property. The grounds were lush, and meticulously maintained. The villa has the most amazing views with doors that open up all along the front of the house to let in the wonderful breeze. The interior decorating was very tasteful and comfortable furnishings, plenty of room for everyone.Overall, we loved the property. The owners were very gracious and helpful to us, and responsive to any questions we might have had.I would recommend to anyone looking for an exceptional stay in Sayulita away from the noise and hustle bustle of town. Close enough, but enough out of town to be restful and relaxing.

Magical oasis

This home and its grounds are a work of art, with the ocean view its central focus. We had a marvelous week, drinking in that view and enjoying living outdoors and indoors simultaneously, surrounded by the stunning garden, the delicious and lovely pool, birds and wildlife. Quinn has given thoughtful and thorough guidance for enjoying the nearby beaches and restaurants. Eric, our property manager, was so helpful. Wow, what a fabulous week.

Amazing vacation home!

Loved everything about our 9 day trip we took with another couple. The house is gorgeous, even better than the pics! Loved our daily walks through the jungle on back roads and trails into town. Can be hilly but I enjoyed the challenge. Eric was super responsive to anything and everything we asked. Very chill vibe in Sayulita. We will be back! Best VRBO home I’ve ever rented and I’ve rented a few! Thank you for letting us share in your piece of paradise 🤗

Karuna Daze

Magnificent. If you like stunning architecture, beautiful furnishings, serenity, quietude, lazy days in a pool, and sheer relaxation, then this is the place for you. Renting a motorized side-by-side gave us all the flexibility we needed to enjoy our location out of town, but just close enough. Adding Maria as our in-home chef only added to the overall experience. We definitely hope to return to make more wonderful memories of life in the jungle. Not to be forgotten is the soothing early morning melody of the chachalaka bird.

Paradise!

Villa Karuna is a very special place. The house and the grounds surrounding it are truly amazing. Everything is impeccably maintained. The house completely opens up to breathtaking views of the ocean. It is also very well appointed with all the extras you would ever need to enjoy the kitchen, the pool, the beach, and the magnificent daily sunsets. While Villa Karuna is peaceful and relaxing, when you are ready for a more lively scene, Sayulita is a very short ride away. We also adventured out to multiple other towns and beaches all within a 15 to 20 minute drive. Lastly I can’t say enough about the owners and property manager. We could tell they sincerely wanted us to enjoy the property. The owner’s were very attentive and super helpful with all the guidance and suggestions regarding the property and surrounding areas. The property manager lives in a bungalow on the 7 acre gated property. His presence made us feel additionally safe and he was likewise very helpful during our stay, I would definitely stay here again and I would recommend to everyone looking for a first class experience to make a visit.

Exceptional property and hosts

Our first time in Mexico, and also we had our whole family in tow - this property was a huge highlight. We didn’t know what to expect, but everything far exceeded expectations. Quinn and Lesley’s home is beautifully appointed, and waking up to the calls of birds with full-length windows open to a view of the Pacific a mile away was an experience we won’t soon forget. Sunsets are a highlight too, easy to experience with sea-facing glass and wood doors both downstairs and upstairs. It’s a house that’s meant to be open. There’s a jungle trail leading down to the beach past bamboo and palm - and plenty of access to other beaches if you rent an ATV or bikes in Sayulita. Easy to get back and forth if you’re active, but also plenty of reason to just relax in the home. Their on-site dipping pool was welcome. Our hosts provided lots of input regarding things to do, as did their property manager who was always available. One night we coordinated a local chef through the property manager - an outstanding meal. Can’t say enough positive about this place, and our friendly and engaged hosts.

What a wonderful place

Our stay the first week of January could not have been better. The property and amenities met and exceeded our expectations. Location is just close enough to town to remain convenient (10 minute golf cart ride) and just far enough to escape the crowds. The grounds are immaculately landscaped and maintained. The home is well appointed with all the conveniences needed, and beautifully decorated. Small touches like fresh cut flowers throughout the house from the property grounds were a pleasant touch. The property owners provided an extensive amount of information prior to our arrival, not only of the property but also tips on transportation, beaches and other local amenities. The property manager, Eric was very helpful and responsive to any needs that arose. We felt safe, secure and extremely relaxed as we lounged on the back patio and watched humpback whales in the bay (bring your binoculars!) and fell asleep each night to the sound of the waves crashing on the beach below. We never turned on the air conditioner in the bedrooms, and never had issues with bugs or the family of coati that visited the pool area each night. Thank you for the outstanding hospitality. We will be back!

Beautiful, peaceful home!

This is a really beautiful home and property! We appreciated the tasteful decoration and the wonderful design and architectural details. We really didn’t want to leave the house and go anywhere! I have high standards for ambiance and this house actually exceeded my expectations! We loved the walk through the jungle to a beautiful, private beach - kind of a rare find for sure! The property itself is a tropical oasis with gorgeous sunset views. The star gazing at night from the patio and pool area was magical! Everything about Villa Karuna is magical! The kitchen was very nice and well stocked. We cooked dinner there 3 nights and found everything we needed for an elegant sunset dinner party! The location is perfect - you can walk to town in 20 minutes if you want, but the road is a bit dusty so we often called Sayulita Taxi and they were always there in 10 minutes for a 5 minute ride to town . It was easier than driving and finding parking or walking. Eric, the on-site property manager, was super nice - he was there for whatever we needed but we had complete privacy (he had a separate bungalow on the property a ways from the main house). I would recommend this house without hesitation and am hoping we can stay here next year when we visit Sayulita! This is not just a vacation rental - it is a magical experience!

Beautiful tranquil retreat

We loved our time a Villa Kruna. We spent mornings over coffee on the deck, afternoons at the beach or in town and sunsets in the pool. Heaven! The house had everything we needed and Erick was very helpful. The villa is so well thought out. The layout worked perfectly for our group of parents, grandparents and a 13 year old. The attention to detail is amazing and creates a delightful atmosphere. Thanks for making such a beautiful place available for our family to enjoy.

Perfect Mexico Getawy

After always staying in the town of Sayulita, this is the first time we stayed on the outskirts near Playa Patzcuaritos. The property blew us away with its thoughtful design that maximized the view of the ocean and jungle. It was very well equipped and super comfortable and peaceful. The gorgeous beach was a short walk away and was virtually empty. Eric, the property manager, was so helpful and responsive too. We are planning on going back again next year for sure.

The definition of "oasis!"

We loved Villa Karuna. What a gorgeous and tranquil spot! The setting and views are unmatched. We adored being able to open all the accordion doors to feel the breezes and hear the ocean. Eric is a terrific, responsive, and knowledgable property manager. It was great to have him nearby, but we had complete privacy. We relished the upstairs terrace for morning coffee and sunset cocktails. We even saw a whale from the terrace! The villa had everything we needed, with plenty of comfortable space for our family to spread out. The pool is on the small side, but we really enjoyed it. We loved the 25-minute jungle walk each way to the (not swimmable) beach in front of the house. And you can't beat being just 1 mile outside the town of Sayulita, which we easily accessed with our rented golf cart. Our only disappointment: We didn't see even one scorpion, which our kids were hoping for! We did, however, see some beautiful birds, as well as salamanders. Villa Karuna exceeded our expectations, which were fairly high. (We decided that it would also be perfect for three adult couples traveling together.) We definitely hope to return soon. Muchas gracias para todos!

Breathtaking Views

I am so surprised that this house was available during high season because it was spectacular! The views were amazing and the star gazing at night was unreal. It’s super close to Sayulita but far enough to relax with the sounds of the jungle. The kitchen was well stocked and Eric, property manager, responded very quickly to any concerns which I honestly didn’t have any. I highly recommend this place and will be back in the future.

Serenity in Sayulita

We loved staying at Villa Karuna. It was a beautiful respite from the business of town, which was quite crowded since it was semana Santa. We thoroughly enjoyed the incredible views, the sound of the birds, the sound of the waves. Although a little disappointed that the beach was kinda far, it didn’t matter as we went to a different beach almost daily. Would love to come back! Thank you for your hospitality.
