Yelapa is a vacationer’s hideaway that can only be reached by boat. Today it remains an escape from the norm and an opportunity for authentic adventure travel to a naturally beautiful Mexican village. Most famous for its waterfalls and beach the cobblestone paths, jungle fauna, and quaint restaurants and stores further add to Yelapa's charm. MiraMar is located on the village side of Yelapa. Casa Estrella del Mar is a one bedroom house with stairs to the ocean and beach immediately below. People who stay say it's a steal for the price. This house is a destination perfect for adventure travelers who are looking to experience Yelapa in accommodations which are fully enclosed. Centrally located the house is a 10min walk to the main beach or a 5min walk to town. All our accommodations are houses complete with kitchen, bathroom, dining table, bed, closet space, and patio with furniture. There is a queen bed and a futon couch which folds down into a double bed in this house. Please let us know if your party is more than 2 people. We offer fully enclosed, comfortable accommodations here. And the views at our places are really hard to beat. We also provide fast and reliable wifi. We also have a very large rooftop patio where you can socialize and BBQ if you like. We use it for hosting events from time to time as well! It is hilly in Yelapa with lots of cobblestones paths and uneven stairs. We live here and it's a small town so you'll see us pretty often most likely. You can also message/email us if you need anything so we can be sure to make your stay pleasant. We don't know if you need something or have a question unless you let us know, so please communicate your needs/questions so we can do our best to make your stay awesome. We staff an office during the high season (Nov -April). This is an incredible place. Rustic, charming, picturesque, full of friendly people and brimming with life. We are so happy living here! Our houses are on the town side and are about 5 min from most of the popular restaurants and about 10min from the main beach. Yelapa is a boat ride away from Puerto Vallarta (PV), which has the closest airport. You have to come by water taxi from PV or Boca de Tomatlan as there are no roads here. That last water taxi from PV generally leaves at 5:00pm but there are two later ones leaving at 6:00 and 6:30pm from Boca de Tomatlan. You must let us know 24hrs in advance which water taxi you plan to take. When you get to Yelapa, be sure to get off at the town pier (usually the 3rd stop), not Hotel Lagunita pier or the main beach. The MiraMar porter will be there to meet you and show you to the house. Tipping for their time is expected; 100 pesos, more for more than two large bags. The house will be open and we will make sure to catch you later in the day if we aren't available when you arrive. There are no roads here so everyone walks, rides horses or uses ATVs to get around. It is hilly in Yelapa with lots of cobblestone paths and uneven stairs. There are no banks or ATMs in Yelapa and almost no one accepts credit cards. Cash is king so plan accordingly. Pesos for eating out, groceries, souvenirs. Dollars for activities tend to be preferred. We provide filtered water in our houses. We offer top rated boat excursions with MiraMar Excursions, so let us know if you want to get out on the water. We can set up massages, paragliding, horseback riding, and other fun activities too.
