Ballena at Caivama

Summary:

Ballena pairs Pacific and tropical views with a private balcony suited to yoga, morning coffee, and time outside. Retractable glass walls connect the open living spaces to the balcony and heated plunge pool. The pet-friendly property accommodates four guests in King and Double bedrooms, with two full bathrooms, a full kitchen, air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, and washer/dryer combo, plus Caivama's shared rooftop and family amenities.



The Space:

Ballena turns toward the Pacific. Retractable glass walls open the living area to a private balcony, bringing ocean and tropical hillside views into the property while extending the gathering space outdoors.



The balcony provides room for morning yoga, coffee in the open air, or time beside the heated plunge pool after the beach. Sunsets and changing coastal light shape the setting without separating it from the kitchen, dining area, and living room inside.



The open layout gives couples, friends, or a small family space to gather while keeping the bedrooms apart from the main living area.



Ballena accommodates up to four guests:



Primary bedroom: King bed and ensuite full bathroom

Second bedroom: Double bed

Second full bathroom: Not ensuite



The property also includes a full kitchen, air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, and an in-unit washer/dryer combo.



Across Caivama, shared amenities include rooftop infinity pools and lounge areas, a family pool, hot tub, fitness center, yoga space, coworking lounge, hammock area, and social spaces. Rooftop amenities are reserved for guests and residents age 18 and older; families have access to the family pool.

The Neighborhood:

Sayulita brings together surf culture, colorful streets, local artisans, restaurants, cafes, and an active town center. Spend time along the beach, explore the shops and galleries, take a surf lesson, or discover the food and creative community that shape the town.



Caivama's hillside setting offers a different perspective on Sayulita. It remains within walking distance of the beach and town while sitting above the busiest streets.



Beyond Sayulita, the Riviera Nayarit includes beaches, coastal villages, hiking trails, and seasonal whale watching.



Getting Around:

Many guests walk between Caivama, downtown Sayulita, and the beach. Caivama occupies a hillside setting, so routes around the property and town include slopes.



Street parking is available near the property. Caivama does not provide on-site parking for cars or golf carts, and golf-cart charging is not available within the community.
