Casa Makawe Only Adults

This is the second time we stayed here, Aaron is always attentive and responsive. We stayed in unit 304 this time and while it wasn’t as large as the front unit, it was just as nice and very quiet for sleeping which can be tricky in Sayulita! The bed was comfortable and the rooftop pool is awesome. We ordered brunch poolside from his restaurant Sur38. My wife had the Chilaquiles Burrata and ordered the Pastel Azteca, “Mexican Lasagna”, both dishes were excellent! We will definitely be back!!

FANTASTIC stay @ Casa Makawe. Great location - near town but enough away to avoid the late night noise. Our room was spacious and very accommodating. The kitchen setup had everything we might need and more - microwave, toaster oven, toaster, coffeemaker, blender and hot water kettle. Nice terrace for relaxing over coffee in the morning. The rooftop pool space is lovely. Our plan had breakfast included at the affiliated - adjacent restaurant , Sur 38, which was fantastic. Aaron, the “boss”, was very responsive and awesome. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Stayed here with a large group of friends on my 3rd visit to Sayulita and it will be my first choice from here on out. My king room was more of a suite with a great balcony and a nice hammock in addition to a comfy king bed. The kitchenette had everything needed and the entire property had a nice funky vibe to the decor. Room service from Sur38 is pretty incredible. We lived on the roof while there with the perfect size pool, swing chairs & nice bar set-up. Aaron is a great host with an amazing gem of a property very close to the beach in Sayulita.

My friends and I rented out every room for a birthday stay and when I say this was the most epic spot and time in all of Sayulita, I'm not kidding. The accommodations were fantastic and Aaron was the most gracious host. The location is within a 5-10 minute walk to the square and the beach. The rooftop has a beautiful view of Sayulita during the day and night. The restaurant downstairs "Sur 38" was an ideal and convenient food option. It helps that everything I had was so dang good! Sur 38 fantastic idea when we didn't want to venture too far from the Rooftop. Every one of the staff members were friendly and attentive to our needs. Our DJ friends were able to play on a speaker that was available from Aaron (with advance notice.) You know you're liveing that Sayulita lifestyle when random folks are trying to figure out how to get up to the rooftop! We lived on the roof! 10/10 We will return!

Nice place in a very good location about two blocks from the main square — close enough to the action and far enough away from the noise. It’s also about a 10-minute walk to Playa Los Muertos, which is quieter and better for swimming than the main beach. The rooftop pool was nice, and I liked having a combination lock for the room rather than a key card. Sur 38 on the ground floor is a good spot for breakfast. My one complaint is the mattress. It’s just too hard, and I prefer a firm bed.

Horrible customer service doesn't adequately convey my experience at Casa Makawe. Abelardo and his staff were actively hostile. I came late in a friend's visit to CW to spend several days with her. Abelardo demanded extra payment, despite the room's capacity being three, and demanded that payment be made outside of Airbnb via cash. Abelardo proceeded to follow and intimidate my friend and I. We are two females alone in a foreign country. He sent many messages on Airbnb and would take my friend aside in person to mention where and when he saw our comings and goings on his cameras. He and his maintenance manager would glare at us every time we passed by them. There was one day he stood in the staircase when my friend needed to get by and would not move; I assume as means of intimidation. We rented a golf cart and asked where it needed to be parked and he demanded payment prior to telling us the location. Abelardo exhibited exploitive behavior. Admittedly, my friend and I could have read the details of this Airbnb more closely. We did not realize my presence or the request for extra towels one week into my friend's 19 day stay would be such an issue. We responded to his requests kindly, however, and were met with wildly inappropriate hostility. He will require that you pay for extra towels and cleaning, regardless of length of stay. He will demand payment for guests that vary in amounts from day to day depending on his mood. When we lost power and WiFi for a full day, we were just out of luck. He will make your stay unbelievably uncomfortable. There are better priced, better staffed locations throughout the town. I would not recommend this Airbnb to anyone, but I would actually vehemently recommend that female guests stay away. You will not feel safe in a building owned by Abuelardo. We ended up leaving in the middle of our stay and going to a delightful hotel in Northside that cost less, had better amenities, and had a warm and welcoming staff.
