"AC did not work but the fan worked. Some of the furniture was worn or broken. But overall, for Mexico, and especially Yelapa where there are limited amenities, it was fairly good. The staff were helpful, especially Ismar, who spoke some English. As my Spanish is poor I was grateful for that!"

"Great place to stay. Host is quick to respond and has helpful staff if needed. Will come again!"

"Great friendly staff, nice room and decent food. Beer was extra cold !"

"We enjoyed our stay. The restaurant was accomadating to us and it really was a nice stay. We deffinately enjoyed the cabana. It was very comfortable and served us well. The hot water wasn't working but we were able to use a different cabanas shower. "

"The room was so interesting and beautiful. But the grounds were the best part, the outside areas were serene and well landscaped. My friend and I enjoyed sitting out or enjoying a hammock by the river often. I also enjoyed that there was a small row boat that I could row over to the beach area. We had our first dinner there and it was the most delicious meal of our 14 day trip (the volcano one)."

"Unbelievable. Quiet spot, removed from the town. A gorgeous hike to encourage seeing more of the towns sites."

"This was a trip of a lifetime. The views are to die for, the helpers were awesome, and the casa was everything we expected. Yanet made us a delicious shrimp dinner, Edson delivered us safe and sound both ways, and Yael was there in the morning tending to the pool, dumping the garbage, and cleaning up after the visitors we had in the middle of he night. There are a lot of stairs so if you if you have any mobility challenges, I would suggest one of their other beautiful casas on Yelapa.There is a 50 peso per person each way marina fee when getting picked up at Marina Vallarta so be prepared for that.There were a couple restaurants that did take card if you are low on cash or pesos. We only ate out for dinners and thoroughly enjoyed every one. Everywhere we went everyone was so kind and helpful.Thank you again for always being very responsive and the open communication."

"It was further from the beach than expected. One must take a quad to get up to this place with luggage. The place was very clean and quaint. It is fairly central which was nice. Very tasty food at some of the restaurants."

"Casa Gratitud was everything we hoped it would be. We enjoyed our stay in this gorgeous home overlooking the bay. The home was clean and well appointed with most everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing weeklong stay. Do be warned that there are 200 stairs from the trail to the house. We enjoyed the daily workout and the view is worth it!Make sure that the water taxi drops you off at the correct pier when you arrive as there are two in the town. We didn’t know and arrived to the wrong one. Yelapa is a charming town that is a welcomed break from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Everyone was so friendly and the fresh shrimp ceviche, guacamole, and groceries awaiting us at the house were a huge hit! Thank you Yanet!"
