Chacala sits overlooking secluded Chacala Bay, surrounded by palm trees dotted with palapa restaurants. There are only about 400 residents in the village.

The large lot is entirely enclosed with secured parking. Under the large patio palapa House guests will enjoy afternoons in the hammock and lounge furniture. The private beach area features 2 palapas for shade. One palapa for the house guests and the other for the casita.

The Beach House has an onsite property manager couple, Claudia and Roberto, who are there to assist and do housekeeping maintenance. Roberto can be hired to take you to the surf area, fishing, ocean touring and snorkel areas. Claudia will make sure your living area is cleaned daily and will help make your stay comfortable.

Fantastic location
The house is amazing. Fantastic location right on the beach great kitchen lots of outdoor seating. One bedroom downstairs with king bed and ensuite and one general bathroom. Upstairs is reached by a staircase outside of the unit. One was a smaller room with a small queen bed and ensuite. The other was much larger had two queens and an ensuite. Both had ocean views The staff were fantastic could not do enough for us. Small pool which was nice. A perfect home on the beach

Best place in Chacala
A wonderful beach house. Housekeeper very friendly and helpful and did great job keeping us clean and tidy on a daily basis. Local street food and restaurants all very good. Small supermarket available, and a tortilleria. ATMs in town do not work. Bring pesos with you.

a true vacation
this playa chacala house was all that it was described to be and then some. we all fell in love with "claudia" and her family who caretake the property with pride. speaking of families, we were delighted to share the beach with locals...tubbas and trumpets on the sand, the gleeful play of children in the water, falling asleep to the sound of the surf and being in "authentic" meh-hee-ko. the house provided us with room to relax, cook when we wanted to (bought fresh fish in the neighboring town of las varas and delicious fruit that was found only steps away from the house), and we could not believe how little we spent for the amount of food (and drink) we bought at the MEGA store in the beginning of our stay. p.s. we managed to find a guide who took us to where ancient petroglyphs are found...definitely a worthwhile activity too.

Idyllic beach home
Our stay exceeded all expectations. From the location to the layout and amenities, nothing disappoints. Wake up every morning to views of the ocean merely steps away. Enjoy the full kitchen and patio table if you’d prefer to cook at home. The two rooms upstairs have their own private bath, while the downstairs one has a separate bath but is just across the hall and allows everyone who’s in the common space to use. The outdoor palapa offers ample seating to stay cool in the sun or enjoy the marked off sandy beach area that is your own even on the most crowded of days. Claudia, the housekeeper, will guide you to the best taco stands, coffee, and anything else you need to make the most of your stay. She works very hard to make your stay as relaxing as possible and succeeds with flying colors. Chacala itself offers so much for such a small town. Kayak, fishing, whale watching (for only $26/ person), hiking, and many other adventures await. Chac Mool is the best place to grab a cup of coffee and enjoy breakfast on the beach. If you’re tired of Mexican food, they offer a great burger and pizza (better than Surfer’s). The micro brewery only open on Friday and Saturday’s from 5-10pm is worth stopping by. The Tapas Bar down the beach near Mar De Jade is open spontaneously but worth the hope of walking down the beach to find it open for the best margaritas, coconut shrimp, ceviche, and Sunday brunch. The barbacoa quesadilla located across from the store La Roca was our favorite taco joint by far. If you’re lucky and the churro stand that sets up on the street in front of the Chac Mool plaza is there, get yourself the best $.50 churro you’ll ever have. Las Brisas next door to the house will bring you food to your palapa and their fries are the best in town. There is NO ATM in town so be sure to grab some pesos before you arrive or prepare to use your credit card. Chacala is incredibly special and is a hidden gem. If you’re lucky enough to find this place available to you, you’re lucky enough. :)

Great beach house with local Mexican vibe
We had an amazing holiday at the Chacala Beach house. As two families we wanted the convenience of an all inclusive on the beach but with flexibility for food and excursions. We found it ALL for kids 3-13 years old with interests ranging form boogie boarding, sand castle building, swimming, fishing, hiking, volley ball, and just hanging out. Location - right on a beautiful beach (nicer than Sayulita's) with amazing sunsets and unlike most other houses in Chalcala, just outside the compound gates are groceries, tortilla-ria, juice bar, surfer pizza (they deliver!) - everything you need. All of the locals are really friendly without being pushy and accommodate those without Spanish with friendly smiles. We ran a tab with the restaurant next door to have nachos and beverages delivered in the afternoon, breakfast buffet and great dinners at affordable prices and they take credit cards, otherwise bring pesos. Or choose to eat in and the owners insist you let Claudia, the daily housekeeper, do ALL of the dishes. House - right on the beach with great sunset view and we felt very safe and comfortable with the indoor and outdoor layout. Beds are comfortable, rooms are spacious and each have an en-suite . Sleeping arrangements are flexible, but each bedroom opens and locks to the outdoor compound area. So, with young children who need night access to their parents the casita is perfect with 1 bedroom, plenty of sleeping space for 3 children and a kitchen. Main Kitchen is small but comfortable, outdoor dinning space is great, good lounge chairs, but no couch or lounge zone inside. We loved that the house came with beach towels, boogie boards, beach toys and private palapas on the beach. Activities - we did excursions every other day including hiking the local volcano, fishing with Roberto (caught 3 yellow fin tuna in 2 hours!), hike to petroglyphs, local market day at la Penita and a great trip to San Blas to take a river tour to see crocodiles, birds, turtles followed by a swim - all were fun for all ages and very chill. Transportation - as a group of 9 we highly recommend contacting Trini's Shuttle Service. Juan met us at the airport, took us on all the excursions on our time and had lots of local knowledge and advice including great inexpensive restaurants and all without the "tour" feel. The convenience was amazing and the cost was less than renting cars / van. Fun village, great beach and plenty to do - without the hassles of crowded all-inclusives.

Great family beach rental!
This review is primarily for the La Casita apartment rental. We spent one week at the beach house and loved every minute! Las Casita is well-appointed, comfortable and the location is utterly unbeatable. The apartment was perfect for our little family. Claudia and Roberto, the caretakers, are onsite and extremely approachable and helpful. Chacala beach is great for young kids, and while Chacala is small, it has enough tiendas and restaurants for most needs. We also had the good fortune to meet the owners, who are extremely kind and genuine people. I would highly recommend this property for people who are looking to spend their time on a lovely beach without a whole lot of distractions. There are lots of options for things in the area which are best reached by a rental car.

As advertised!!!
What a great location! Relaxing, friendly staff, clean sandy beach. If you want to get off the beaten path, this is it. The hiking was beautiful, snorkeling was nice, swimming in the ocean was OUTSTANDING! The beach is definitely swimmable and very child friendly as it is pure sand with virtually no rocks, shells, or seaweed! The house is centrally located, clean and well appointed. We thoroughly enjoyed Claudia's daily cleaning of the place and her friendly, helpful attitude. We loved Chacala and the people we met. Xplore Chacala taught our son how to surf and guided us on a hike through nearby petroglyphs. Great get away and beautiful home and town!

My family just got back from Chacala. Right on the beach, best location in all of Chacala. If you like beautiful beaches and to be steps from the Ocean, this spot is amazing! Our family had an outstanding time. Trust me, book this spot....In real estate the only thing that matters is location, location, location...I am repeating myself, but awesome location. Mom and dad had privacy down stairs and our two small children had their own room upstairs. We are coming back, best family trip we have taken ever. Thank you Elaine! J, S, K and J~

One week wasn't enough...
We just arrived home to snowy Canada after spending a week at this beautiful beach house. We had been to Chacala on day trips via boat before, but decided to spend a week here this time around and I'm really glad that we did. We spent most of our time enjoying the private beach area and the huge patio. We found there was no need to cook as it was just the two of us and the restaurants that surround the property were really good and would deliver directly to us if we felt like staying in. Claudia and Roberto were really great to have on site. We also toured the new one bedroom apartment and were impressed by its size and modern appliances. We will definitely be returning.

Impossible Not To Relax Here!
Exquisite home with every amenity needed for a serene vacation. We are here now & could stay for months reading and walking the beach. The entire property is impeccable and caretakers Claudia & Roberto have gone out of their way on a daily basis to make sure all is well. Soooo wonderful being RIGHT On the beach and yet we feel secure and have lots of privacy under the HUGE palapa! Upstairs bedrooms are private and very lovely. This is our 3rd year at the Beach House and WILL return as the people of Chacala are warm, welcoming and appreciate tourists immensely! While here, visit any of the schools & slip as many school supplies into your suitcase as possible.....they NEED it all!

Amazing Vacation
I have stayed here now seven times and this place lives up to its billing, with no exceptions. As you enter the property from the small local/authenitic Mexican town through the gate you will find very secure parking, lush landscaping, a very large Palapa, and an equistiely maintained main house with three private master bedrooms. Most recently I vacationed here with my wife and our two sons (3.5 years and 20 months) this place has everything a young family could want to maximize our childrens playtime and parents rest and relaxation. the beach is private and right there, there is no need to go anywhere if you don't want to, excellent food and drinks can be delivered from the neighboring resturants to you on your chaise lounger as your children test thier imagination in the beach sand. When your daily vitamin D intake is maxed, a fresh water rinse and a very large, containable, shaded patio are adjacent to the main house where the kids can continue to play and you can read, nap, catch up on your email or skype with your ipad on the WIFI. I have also vacationed here for surf trips with friends and scored epic surf, with tropical water conditions and few if any other surfers to contest for waves. There are excellent, running and hiking trails and dirt roads all around the town of Chacala, including a nice 500 ft 'mountian' to the south that overlooks the cresent shaped beach of Chacla. Other activites you may consider, swimming, surfing, stand up paddle boards, sailing, jet-skiing, fishing kayaking, whale watching, bird and flower sighting and practicing your espanol!

What a place to unwind.
We spent a week here, and had a great time. The water was warm, the breeze off the ocean in the afternoon is awesome, and it wasn't hot. There a couple of nice restaurants near by that even delivered chips and guacamole to the patio every afternoon. The wi-fi was fast enough to make calls back to the states on Skype, and we were able to stream movies from iTunes. One cool thing our daughter (8 years old) really thought was cool was all of the sand crabs that come out at night. We all had a great time running up and down the beach with a flashlight checking out their burrows. We took a bus from Puerta Vallarta, which was a little limiting. But we did take a taxi into the larger town on the highway, and found a decent grocery store, some great birria, other goodies to bring back to the house.

About the host

Host profile image
We traveled for many years throughout Mexico and Latin America looking for the perfect beach. We knew our search was over when we arrived in Chacala for the first time in Oct. 2001. It was love at first sight. In addition to surfing, swimming, hiking, fishing, whale watching, we have loved being involved with the community via the schools and hosting an annual Christmas (Posada) event, in which all children are fed, given a toy and an afternoon of song and fun. NGO's from the US have used the property to host retreats and conduct community programs.

As you can see from Chacala Beach House, our vacation home has been a joy to share with many.

Why they chose this property

A great place for a Yoga Retreat, wedding and reception.
