A Celebration of Spirit

3/22/2018

1 Comment

 
Dios de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a holiday that focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember loved ones who have passed and to support their spiritual journey. Although it is recognized throughout Latin America, it originates from Mexico.  I was fortunate enough to be in Sayulita to witness the pure joy and sense of community that is at the heart of this amazing holiday!

Beach Town Shopping

If you have been to a few beach towns, you invariably find that the same sarongs and beach towels are found across the globe.  One of the charms of Sayulita is that it has a strong artisan culture, largely because many artists from around the world have chosen to now call it home.  As a result, there are some wonderful stores worth stopping by and taking a look - whether to purchase a unique souvenir or to simply be inspired by the beautiful artisanal products of Mexico.

A Colorful Life

There are few places that embrace vibrant color with the gusto of Mexico and Sayulita is no exception!  As soon as I arrive at the Puerto Vallarta airport, I am always taken back at how even the planes seem to be happier and more colorful in Mexico.  For as little as the town of Sayulita is, they have managed to wash it with every single color of the rainbow resulting in a visual assault of the best kind.  Here are just a few of my favorite photos from this photogenic charmer....

Petit Hotel Hafa is one of my most favorite boutique hotels in the world.  A rustic-luxury property (that is probably more rustic than luxury), it perfectly captures the authenticity, charm, and spirit of Sayulita.  Smack in the center of the town, it feels like an oasis in the midst of the hustle and bustle.

Due to the large expat community that has settled in Sayulita over the course of the last 20+ years, I was surprised to find that there was lots of good food to choose from in this little town.  And I am not just talking about tacos and margaritas (which are also pretty great by the way)!  There is a lifestyle of health and wellness which feeds into the food here with many restaurants serving really fresh ingredients.  The diverse offering of tastes given it is just a mere surfing village was such a treat.  Here is a run-down of my Top Ten spots!

When you land in Sayulita, the first thing you will want to do is head to the beach!  Given how small the town is, you will be surprised to find that there are actually multiple beaches all within walking distance from the main plaza.  Each one offers something different, so here is a quick guide to get you oriented so you don't waste any precious vacation time lounging on the wrong beach, which would be such a shame!

A House in the Hills

Located just 40 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita is an interesting mix of a town.  Famous for it's surfing and Bohemian vibes, it is home to both expats (from Europe, US & Canada) and local Mexican families that have lived here for generations.  You essentially have two choices when it comes to lodging here - you can either choose to stay in town, close to the beach and nightlife, or in a private home in the surrounding hills.  Regardless of where you stay, you will fall in love with Sayulita - everyone does.  There is a something special here.
