Splendid Stay
Because of the layout and two suites, this is an excellent house for two couples. The pool is a bonus and Chacala is a great little town.

Vacation in mexican paradise, for those who actually want to vacation in Mexico.
This property was fabulous. It is a beautiful home nestled in a lovely mexican seaside village. You would be happy to never leave the property if you just wanted time to unwind and relax poolside, with its beautiful view and amazing climate. However the town was also enjoyable, with mexican beach restaurants lining the wonderful swimming beach. IF you are looking for an authentic mexican vacation this is the spot to do it while still enjoying all the amenities of your private poolside oasis to retreat to.

Great place!
This apartment was perfect for a weekend getaway for 2! It was very clean and quiet. We really enjoyed the ability to walk to dinner at Cunnetto’s! We also walked to the Italian grocery store in the morning, which was another great experience!

Beautiful house in an unspoiled village
The house is spacious, charming, well-designed and -equipped. The small, walled yard with pool is a private oasis. The view of the sea from the upstairs bedroom is as advertised. We loved Chacala, but it’s not for everyone. When we were there, nearly 100% of the tourists were Mexican families, kind and friendly. The village infrastructure is simple. The restaurant food, in general, is simple. Sometimes the internet fails, or the electricity. The hike home from the beach, uphill on dirt roads, can get hot and dusty. Go there for an authentic experience of unspoiled Mexico by a gorgeous beach.

“Perfect”
What an amazing getaway after 2 years of lockdown! This home did not disappoint…it is as peaceful and serene as it looks in the pictures. The views are amazing especially from the upstairs bedrooms. We loved the walk into town and the convenience of the little market down the street toward the marina. What a special and beautiful town. So grateful to stay in this home for a couple weeks and cannot wait to return! No complaints at all!

So much to like yet falls short
Beautiful spacious home but needs detailing. We are used to arriving at a pristinely clean and well maintained rental home greeted by a hospitable property manager. There were several problems with this property: soiled paper in the bathroom garbage can, personal items belonging to the owners left in closet and bathroom of master bedroom and broken outdoor chairs. This home did not feel welcoming. Once these issues were taken care of, we were able to relax and enjoy our stay.

Beautiful home and pool
Beautiful distant views of ocean from both bedrooms upstairs. Pool a big bonus for after-beach cool-downs in the afternoons. (only wish there were some lounge chairs so we could lay down, but there were two comfy cushioned chairs to relax in). Very comfortable master bed and bedding. Kitchen was practical and well supplied with utensils, etc....loved the shutter door windows opening from kitchen out to pool bar counter. Short walk downhill to beach took about 5-10 minutes (might be a bit steep for some elderly tourists), and a dip in the pool after the return walk uphill felt great. La Roca mini super market at the corner across from the entrance to gated Marina Chacala had everything you could need. We just had a couple minor issues (that were quickly resolved)....could not access wi-fi at first because the password information (on the VRBO site that we received after booking the house) had not been updated to the new password. Owners responded immediately with new password. (wish we didn't even have to use wi-fi on vacation, but alas....work). Came home one night from dinner to hear the house alarm going off as we were walking up the hill. Could not figure out why, or how to disarm. Called property manager Eliezar, who came over within minutes and spent about 20 minutes trying to disarm. He finally pulled the cords out, which solved that issue! :)

A little slice of heaven
We stayed in this lovely home, on the hill overlooking Chacala, for a week. The pictures don’t really do it justice. The place was spotless, the kitchen well stocked and the beds comfortable. We especially enjoyed the private pool and the little palapa for a shady spot for drinks or a meal. Although my husband and I rented the house for ourselves, it would be perfect for two couples as there really are two master suites and space enough so you would not be tripping over each other. The walk to Chacala was pleasant and there is a little store nearby the casa for basics. Chacala is a charming town with a nice mix of N. American travelers as well as Mexican families enjoying the beach. If we go back to Chacala we would definitely want to stay in this beautiful house! Thank you for sharing your home!

Great house!
We had a wonderful stay, the house was very comfortable, beautifully designed and the kitchen was well equipped. We have 2 boys and rather than share a room, one decided to sleep in the smaller unairconditioned room and he was comfortable with just the fan. The pool was very refreshing and the palapa offered a nice bit of shade after spending the day on the beach. It was out first time to Chacala and we found that the beach was more swimmable than several others in the nearby towns. There are many tasty restaurants on the beach that allow you to park and spend the entire day lounging at the table if you buy lunch. It was a great trip and we'd love to return.

We really enjoyed the house, it's really beautiful and the pool was great since it was so hot. The air conditioner went out in one of the rooms, we called the owner and they were right on it to try to repair it.

Fantastic home!
We spent 4 nights in Chacala. The home is beautiful, new and very clean. The home had all the amenities to make our stay very pleasant , and the kitchen was well equipped. We loved the views and especially the 'al fresco' dining from the kitchen counter and pool/patio. Would most definitely stay here again.

Castle on a hill!
We had an absolutely amazing time. The house was even better in person than in the pictures! Huge, grand, clean, with a wonderful view from most places in the house. The pool was refreshing and wonderful and the kitchen was adequately stocked for our needs. It is close the the main town where we could pick up food stuff/eat at restaurants/street food/beach, but far up enough to hear nothing but the ocean when we are home. There was even a massage therapist who came to the house upon request at a very reasonable rate and we had a fantastic experience with her. The Wrights were really responsive to our needs while we were in the house, as were the local team who came to look after/clean the house. Chacala itself was perfect for what we were looking for - filled with local tourists, full of life and activity, but not overtly developed so you still feel like you are in Mexico, not some generic resort area. It was simply a perfect, wonderful stay.
