Has anyone stayed at Mar Y Sol

My wife and I stayed there last march and had a wonderful time. I think the Mar y Sol has the best spot in all of Yelapa. It is in between the town and the beach. Be prepared to do quite a bit of walking. We were a little out of shape and were sore the first couple of days from walking up and down the paths of Yelapa. The owners are very helpful and I think they are actually own in Yelapa now. From what I understand they are going to add a third floor to the casa. We stayed on the second level which was the top at the time and enjoyed a cold beer on the patio overlooking the ocean every afternoon. There are many good places to eat in Yelapa and our personal favorite was Tacos y Mas. Be sure and try the avacodo pie. On another note, you have to remember that Yelapa is a very "Old" town and is quite rustic so if you are looking for 5 star accomidations then this isn't the place. If you want to meet some nice people and see some wonderful scenery then you have found a home.

We had no problems getting there. We took a boat from Muertos pier and arrived A OK. I personally loved Yelapa and you can see a few pictures of our vacation there on the owners web site under Bret and Sandi's pictures link. Keep in mind that we do not know them and it was our first trip to Yelapa and I can honestly say that when we go back we will stay at the same place again with no worries. Not sure what the construction is like right now but e-mail the owners and I am sure they will let you know. From there website it says they should be done with the top level before you get there so if not I am sure they will take care of you. The pictures of the place are as advertised so don't worry. As far as groceries, we took advantage of the little shop in town about 2 minutes walk away for some snacks and everything else we ate out at a very good reasonable price.

Mar Y Sol Yelapa

My Partner and I had the pleasure of staying at Mar y Sol three weeks ago in November. The suite is lovingly cared for by Randy and Judy and they will be happy to help you with whatever you need. The Casa is in the center of the village, best location! The bed was comfortable and the rooms exceptionally clean. We enjoyed the wrap around balcony with panaramic views of the beach and ocean, in fact we spend 90% of our time on the balcony. Best of all there is high speed internet and satellite TV! We are dreaming of returning again next year.

Fishing with Yelapa Adventures

A day with YELAPA ADVENTURES Gerardo and Jay really know what they are doing and how to catch fish. They speak good English have 3 eboats and go out of their way to make sure you have a great day...... thanks guys .... oh yeh the day was very successful ... lots of big fish.

Island Tour and Snorkeling with Yelapa Adventures

My husband and I just returned from a week long stay in Yelapa and we loved everything about it. From our accommodations (Mar Y Sol) to the food (we ate at a different restaurant every night and bought our own groceries), the beach combing. The highlights for us were no time share salespeople, no buses, no cars, NO SNOW.
We got to do enough shopping at the beach vendors and on the walk to the waterfall that were were satisfied with what we got. The major highlight of our week was a boat trip with Jay and Gerardo from YELAPA ADVENTURES. These two gentlemen took real good care of us. Jay, the son, is an awesome young man. He speaks very good English and was able to answer any and all questions from our group. They took us out to the islands to the bird sanctuary - blue footed boobies and we got to do some snorkeling and beach combing as well. Lunch and drinks were provided. We did see a school (?) of dolphins and Jay and Gerardo did their best to entice them to come closer but no such luck. It was exciting though. We later ran into Jay working at our restaurant of choice for dinner. He made a point of coming over to see us and made sure we had everything we needed. A very special young man who will do well in his life.
