We were in room 301 and the mgr Efron was so helpful with connections to AVT’s, horseback riding, golf carts, rental cars, and even an in unit chief, he really helped make our stay 100% enjoyable. The unit was beautiful with a large deck and the view was outstanding.

Unit 301, great vacation spot

Pros:
-Awesome views from the 700--900 units at the top.
-Spacious indoor and outdoor areas with each unit
-Located in the quieter north end of town
-Community pool is now heated
-Very safe and secure
-Close beach bar with good drinks at Le Camion.

Cons: 
-Top units have the best views but you have to work for it as they are at the top of a steep hill.  We got the power lifted golf carts from Sayulita Golf Car (rent from them for the added benefit of reserved parking at the square) and parked at the top.  -There is very limited parking up there.  Even if you manage to get your transportation to drop you up at the top you still have to drag your luggage up or down two steep flights of steps.  Good luck to you if you have groceries and luggage and no ride to the top.
-Wafting sewer smell in the air..."quick close the patio"
-Toilet paper goes in the open garbage can next to the toilet



Pros and Cons at Pajaro de Fuego - Upper Units

We stayed in #402. Views were just like the pictures. Watched the sunset every night from our balcony. Great open concept unit. Elevators will help for people with bad knees but not too bad at all. Very clean well kept complex north of the city. Very nice to be outside the main city center. Had a golf cart so it was a 2-3 minute drive. 

Chelsea the PM was great! She arranged for our golf cart and also for transport from the airport. She also answered every question we had quickly. She was a pleasure to deal with.  We will be back!

Amazing views; Great Property Manager!

The best part of this unit (Pajaro de Fuego 802) is the view.  It is just as spectacular as the photos show, and at night you can hear the surf in the distance.  The unit is spacious with plenty of room for 4 adults.  As it says in the description, there are a lot of stairs (8 floors up) to reach the unit so would be tough with young kids or anyone not very fit. 

We stayed in this unit for 18 days, and we wished our stay had been much shorter.   It seems like a unit that the owners do not use, and don't care about how well it is maintained or equipped. It is described as a "luxury" condo but is at best average or below average compared to other rentals in Sayulita. The whole unit needs some serious TLC.

The private plunge pool is not heated and does not get direct sunlight so was too cold to use in March.  The kitchen had some basics, but pans and knives were in poor condition, and the oven didn't get very hot.  I would not recommend cooking in this unit. Other things: a sewage odor in the master bath, which was fixed a week into our stay, improved but still persists somewhat.  The sheets didn't fit the king sized bed so it felt like we were sleeping in a short-sheeted bed.  
The issue that kind of capped of our stay is that the pool for the unit above is right over the patio, and when the renters upstairs used the pool, the water poured through the deck above onto our patio.  Pool water from above dripping off the people walking around in wet swimsuits dripped into our drinks and food on the patio table.  You might think they would install a solid roof to protect the patio, but I don't think the owners ever stay in this unit.  It certainly doesn't have the care and pride of ownership that exists in so many of the other rentals available in Sauylita (and we have stayed in many of them).  We love Sayulita but we don't plan to return to Pajaro de Fuego.

Great view but not a great unit, many better options

We booked a 2 bd apartment over Christmas week months in advance through booking.com. The issues started when we could not find the place - booking.com does not give you the correct address nor do they tell you the apt is part of the “Pajara de Fuego” condo complex. We found out from our travel guide later in the trip that this could be because booking.com wants to hide the fact that this condo complex had a balcony collapse with an entire family on it due to poorly construction a few years back (have not confirmed this, just what he said). 

So after, an hour or so of walking around with the wrong address with all our bags and my pregnant wife trying to find it, we called and messaged the management office but nobody answered the phone or responded to our messages (not that or ever again after that). We finally find the property and there is no management or anyone working the front gate or office at 3:30pm.  We arrive at the room at about 4pm (3 hours after check in) to find that the maids had just begun cleaning it. It’s completely trashed and we can see dirty dishes everywhere, plates of food, etc… they tell us that the “room won’t be ready for another 2 hours when they’re done cleaning it.” I continue to try and call the management but no one answers. 

We wait two hours outside until they say the room is ready. We go in to find it has not been properly cleaned. Dirty counters, hair on the counter, food smeared ont he couch, etc… The worst part is that we find our bedroom has excessive black mold all over the walls, ceiling and bathroom. It was so hard to breathe in there that we ended up sleeping on the couch. 

The condition of the apartment was so bad that we didn’t even end up staying the second night. 

DO NOT waste your money. The management is non-existent and the apartments are outdated and gross.

Avoid at all Costs!!

Completely happy with our stay at Pajaro de Fuego bungalows. Our bungalow was perfect for my family of 5. Drive to town was less than 10 minutes. No noise whatsoever at night which was perfect after a long day. My three boys enjoyed the warm/heated pool.
Beautiful place!!!

Perfect Christmas vacation

My family of 7 stayed at #202 at Pajaro de Fuego in June 2021 to attend a wedding at a nearby property.  This unit has 3 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms.  The unit is very clean, AC is available throughout the unit and is very cold, this helped us cool off quickly as we returned from the beach.  The unit has 2 levels, 2nd floor bedroom has a large bathroom with plenty of closet space.  The team that took care of us(Lorenzo, Adrian, Tabo, etc) were very professional and treated us very kindly, all the time.  The owner of the unit, Chelsea, was quick to respond to all emails and WhatsApp messages.  My deposit was promptly returned to me at the conclusion of my stay, after we completed the checkout walk-thru.  I suggest renting a golf cart if you stay at this property as it will provide convenience--there are plenty of outlets in the garage to charge your golf cart.  Swimming pool is lovely,  my kids thoroughly enjoyed the pool.  It was very clean and the poolside chairs were in great shape.  Their are quite a few stairs on this property,  I suggest being close to an elevator.   I would happily return to this unit during a future stay.

Outstanding accommodations at #202 Pajaro de Fuego

We stayed as an adult family and had a great time! We did have several issues with the employee responsible for golf cart rentals and maintenance, Octavatio. He was rude and kept pushing us for more money. We recommend renting a golf cart elsewhere. 
It is a short 10 minute walk to town so plenty accessible and still very private. There are plenty of stairs, it wasn’t a problem for us but if this bothers you definitely consider get a lower level unit.

Great place, amazing view!

We had a great visit to Pajaro De Fuego. Chelsea was a wonderful host! She helped us with all our needs. The rooms were very clean, and close to basically everything in Sayulita. If you are looking for a quiet place to stay, this is a great choice! 

Having a little golf cart is a must when you stay here. You can certainly walk pretty much everywhere, but it’s very convenient to have a golf cart. Be ready to dole out some cash because it’s not cheap ($45/day).  My only warning for anyone staying here is to go rent a golf cart somewhere else, there are many options in town. 

We rented directly from Pajaro De Fuego and unfortunately it wasn’t a good experience. The guy renting the golf carts ambushed us every time we came back into the hotel for some reason or another. On our last two days we had extended our rental for 48hrs, from Thursday morning to Saturday morning when we were going to depart. On Friday afternoon at 2pm the golf cart manager was waiting outside our room to tell us we had to give him the golf cart now instead of that next morning as previously discussed. He said his “administration” was making him take it from us, unless we gave him 300 more pesos for the evening and morning. 

Long story short, it was a great stay, Chelsea was wonderful, but go rent your golf cart from the other places in town!

Pretty Good!

We stayed 4 nights in unit 404. The apartment itself was beautiful. Very nicely laid out with everything we needed. We found it was exactly as advertised. The room had a great view and was a perfect size for 4 adults. 

When we arrived, two young boys helped us with our luggage which was nice because the reviews do not lie. There are a lot of stairs. And a very steep driveway. One of the managers came to greet us about 15 mins after arriving. We indicated we would like to have a second set if keys which he assured us would be delivered the next day. 

The pool is wonderful. The location is great ( about 15 minutes from town). Overall we had a great stay. 

Adrien did not bring the keys as promised, Chelsea delivered them two days later. We also requested a water refill from Adrien. No luck there either. Got it a day and a half later from someone else. Then a full day later Adrien showed up with another water. What? 

The housekeeper was nice although did not have the place as clean as we had hoped and the young man who helped us with checkout was amazing. He carries our bags, called a taxi, waited until the taxi arrived to help us translate as well as showed genuine empathy towards us as we weren’t feeling that great. If I were managing the place, I would put him in charge of guest relations. I’m sorry I don’t know his name. 

I went back and forth between a 3 or a 4 so this review is really a 3.5
