Many local business owners that closed for the off-season are beginning to re-open their shops, galleries and restaurants for the upcoming 2013-2014 season. With many of our favorite local dining spots closed during the month of September, we are all looking forward to again eating and drinking at these classic Sayulita restaurants. Read more

Sail Sayulita: Dolphins, Drinks, 
Snorkeling, Hidden Beaches, Fun

 By Riley Hunter

 

Sure, surfing in Sayulita is a daily past time for all residents and visitors alike, but day long Sailing Tours in Sayulita are everybody's idea of a fun time! A favorite tour is the trip to Las Islas Marietas (The Marieta Islands) aboard the Ally Cat. Super popular due to it's hidden beach only accessible by snorkeling through an open archway. Once inside, it is your own private little beach paradise! This, coupled with the fact that your ticket price includes free food, an open bar, fishing, SUPing, and the good chance to see dolphins and humpback whales, makes these trips an experience you'll never forget. Read more

 

Claro, surfear es un pasatiempos que se hace diario para todos los residentes y visitantes, pero un dia navegando en barco es pura diversion para todos. Un tour favorito es un viaje a las islas marietas abordo el Ally Cat. Es un destino popular debido a su playa escondida solo acesible por el agua, esnorkeleando debajo de un arco y llegas a la playa. Ya que entras, es tu playa privada y tu paraiso. Esto y el hecho que tu boleto incluye comida, barra, pescar, padelear y la oportunidad de ver delfines y ballenas hace que este viaje sera uno que jamas olvidas. Leer mas

SIR Interview with Rod Rosile:
The Sayulita Real Estate Market
 

 

 

This week I had a chance to sit down with Rod Rosile, owner of Sayulita Investment Realty, to discuss his first year as a Sayulita business owner as well as his outlook on the general Sayulita real estate market.

 

Lindsay - So, the last time we spoke you were just taking over at SIR after your purchase of the business. How was your first year?

 

Rod Rosile- Thanks for asking... It was even better than I expected. I have to say that I'm very happy with the new business as well as the real estate market in general right now. Of course, there were a few challenges taking over a new business, but overall, I'm thrilled with the decision. It is definitely the perfect time to be involved in this local market.  Read entire interview with Rod.

 

 

Esta semana tuve la oportunidad de sentarme con Rod Rosile, dueno de Sayulita Investment Realty para hablar mas sobre su primer ano como dueno de un negocio en Sayulita y su opinion sobre el mercado de bienes raices en Sayulita.

 

Lindsay - Bueno, desde que hablamos la ultima vez, estabas en el proceso de comprar SIR. Como te fue en tu primer ano?

 

Rod Rosile - Gracias por preguntarme... fue aun mejor que esperaba. Tengo que decir que soy muy contento con el nuevo negocio y tambien con el mercado de bienes raices en general ahorita. Claro que enfrente unos desafios en asumir la reponsabilidad del negocio, pero despues de todo, estoy muy emocionado con la decision. Es el momento perfecto para estar involucrado con este mercado local. Leer toda la entrevista con Rod.

Pueblo Magico: A Sweet Story

By Eric Rudd

I don't want to compete with Ed's wit or judgment in his restaurant review column, but I think I can safely comment on quick dessert food - really the common stuff like donuts and flan and such.  Well, if you've spent just minutes in town, especially during early evening hours, you'll notice how competitive this town is for your sweet tooth.  There are several tables selling varieties of flan- and they are all great.  We also have authentic French pastries and other elegant desserts, but I like a simple glazed donut. There's something fun about choosing a donut from a fluorescent-lighted pickup truck parked at the plaza. Read more 

 

No quiero competir con el humor de Ed en sus articulos de resenas de restaurantes, pero creo que puedo comentar un poco sobre los postres como las donas y el flan. Si has pasado aunque sean unos minutos en el pueblo, notaras que este pueblo puede satafecer tus ganas por algo dulce. Hay varias mesas en las calles vendiendo pasteles y flan, todos son deliciosos. Tambien hay postres autenticos de francia y otros postres elegantes. Pero a mi me gustan las donas. Hay algo divirtido en escojer una dona de una camioneta florocente estacionada en la plaza. Leer mas
