Hola!! We had a wonderful time!! The view is amazing! Marta's food is great - we loved the food. We played lots of games and had a good laugh. We toured some of the other villas and they are insane. They are so beautiful. We are thinking about maybe coming back. Thank you for sharing your villa!

This place and the Nayarit area is highly fascinating place. It was so nice to explore the coast to see seals and the village of Platanitos. My daughter fell in love with the dolphins, sea turtles and was able to partake in a release one evening. For me it's been a long time since I've felt such deep relaxation! We all loved it here. We are so sad to leave but it was fun being here. It was super to see the baby turtles. Thank you for sharing your space!

Amazing food! Watching the tides change: the whales! Afternoons in the plunge pool.
We stayed at Casa Estrella 10 years ago when the kids were young. They are now young adults, and it was so special to bring them back with their fiancés and girlfriend. This is a special place with a special place in our hearts.
Whale watching, Martha's cooking, Sunrise, Sunset
Thank you to everyone at Villa Estrella. An amazing place. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Sad to leave, but we are sure we will be back.

We were welcomed with a lightning storm on our first night. Drinking fresh coconut water from the coconuts provided by Onofre. Enjoying Marta's exceptional meals, especially her chicken mole and chilaquiles. Watching the fishermen and surfers while relaxing by the pool. Playing numerous card games and Mexican Monopoly. A day trip to see the crocodiles at La Tovara. The list could go on and on.
A heartfelt thank you to all the staff at Villa Estrella. You made our honeymoon more wonderful than we could have ever imagined! We are already planning our next visit.

Stunning Villa - Strolling along the beach, collecting seashells, enjoying breathtaking sunsets, observing pelicans in flight, spotting whales, watching fishermen at work on the rocks, stargazing, and embracing the overall beauty and tranquility.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Ulrich & Jackie for generously donating Villa Estrella as a live auction item for St. Paul's Academy in Bellingham approximately 7-8 years ago. Although we were the fortunate bidders, we were unable to make the trip back then. After all these years, we finally had the opportunity to experience it. Truly a little slice of paradise! Martha & Lucy took exceptional care of us, and their laughter in the kitchen brought us so much joy. Thank you once again for sharing your stunning Villa Estrella.
