Oceanfront Yelapa
Nice sunny cottage by the sea surrounded by natural beauty and away from the city noise, 5 minutes walk to the beach and twenty minutes to town's waterfall. Yelapa is a small beach tow, just half and hour from Puerto Vallarta by water taxi. ( NO CARS IN YELAPA) house has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, kitchen and common area... Best place to relax, honeymoon, and family trips.... ( Note) the house is about 80 steps down from main street in town. YOU WILL LOVE YELAPA!!

Excellent place to stay. I was unable to get info back on rental (address) could not get on my phone had I been able to get info earlier a couple of weeks prior to leaving for Mexico would of been great. I had a picture and a local found the rental was lucky. Always love YELAPA very special place.

Great location. It was a bit cramped for 4 in the "living room" and she kitchen is just equipped with the bare essentials.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Place difficult to reach.
My stay was pleasant. However, some of the pictures are misleading, the most important picture leads one to believe that the property leads directly to the beach, fact far from the truth. Surely, was disappointed to find out. Too little too late.

Good location, needs better communication.
I've stayed in Yelapa before in a suite just above this one in the same complex (different host), so knew what to expect. The place is basic but very cool with the open design, decently stocked with kitchen things, clean. Good wifi! Gorgeous views. sometimes: whales while you have coffee.
Check in was a bit frustrating, previously the other host had someone to meet us and bring our stuff up and find it (Yelapa is a maze!) you're on your own here. I didn't get a response from the host or the numbers provided to have someone help, but the good news is some very strong and eager guy offered to haul our suitcases for us and he did know which place it was. The instructions aren't great, so know to look for the gap between the two buildings across from the litte candy store at the top of the hill , and go down the probably 80 stairs to the very bottom. Lots of stairs (I knew that but it isn't clear) . Advice: just pack light for Yelapa, head towards the beach (you'll figure out the trails) and after the giant hill, you'll see the littl ncandy store and you're there.
I personally loved the crashing waves and there were fans and mosquito nets. Some basics like oil, coffee, tea were provided. There is a safe for your stuff too!
The other place had a deal with Garcia's to use their beach chairs and umbrellas, and that would have upped my stars here (no indication that was the case). But Yelapa has much more to do than the beach!

Absolutely perfect location. This will be a place we compare all other vacations to.
Amazing stay! Will definitely be back to enjoy this beautiful place again! Host went above and beyond to help us and has everything in the home you could ever need!!

Beautiful view, friendly staff. Constant sound of ocean's roar.
Beautiful views. Friendly staff. Constant sound of ocean's roar. Need to be athletic to manage all the stairs. Yelapa is hilly, so there is lots of up and down walking.
Casa Papaya is very clean and private.
For us, it was a great getaway. We would come here again.

Perfect bay view, yet private. Central location to beach and town.
Clean, open, lots of steps, but my legs got stronger. The bed began hurting my hips after about 3 nights. Stiff mattress. 5 gallon water in kitchen, loved the hammock in the living space by the window; access to Garcia's beach area. Met us at the boat upon arrival with a wheel barrow for our luggage and carried it up and inside for us. Erik helped to arrange for a taxi pickup in PV upon our return home. If you read in bed, bring a book light. you will need a flashlight for the walkways from town and to navigates all the steps. you'll love it!
