It's a lovely cozy cabin, clean provided with everything you need to be comfortable.

Such an idyllic location in walking distance to the main square but away from the noise of any fiestas happening the main square. The house was perfect for our stay. We had an amazing sleep surrounded by tranquil nature. John and Alicia are great hosts - super communicative and Gabriel their rental manager is a sweetheart.

My group LOVED John & Alicia's place. It's an ideal weekend "getaway" when you're in the mood for somewhere quiet, scenic and fresh. The house was gorgeous, clean and very comfortable. Our favorite part was drinking coffee on the front porch in the morning, listening to the birds and breathing in the fresh mountain air. San Sebastian itself, is adorable. We highly recommend. And definitely grab a meal at the property manager Gabriel's restaurant - El (URL HIDDEN) was excellent!

Muchas gracias!! Me ayudaron y todo perfecto

Upon arrival we where met by the host who had been waiting for us. Our cabana was ready for us.

I recommend this place as a corner in the Jalisco mountain range, with many details and very nice treatment. The breakfast is spectacular. The sounds of nature you enjoy at night, is a perfect escape to rest and disconnect from day to day.

Wonderful authentic place within a short walk of the town center. Breakfast was outstanding, unique, and plentiful.

Las Galeritas is a world-class bed & breakfast in the middle of a lovely rustic old mining town in Mexico. If you are ever in Puerto Vallarta, I highly recommend a quick trip to visit the colonial mining town of San Sebastián del Oeste (about 2 hours by car and (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Maps got us there) and staying the night at Las Galeritas. The town feels to have gotten stuck in time in the 19th century. If there were no cars and cell signal, you'd feel like you'd traveled back in time. Each room of Las Galeritas is beautifully decorated, very clean and feels very secluded for a peaceful night's sleep. The bed was very comfortable. If you're not ready to part with civilization, they have TV and wifi (although the wifi is spotty) but I strongly encourage you to disconnect and immerse yourself in the past. The breakfast was glorious and delicious, and it was served in the beautiful dining room that overlooks the gardens and the rooms. Breakfast was a continental spread accompanied with a main dish. For us it was chorizo and eggs with fresh tortillas. Everything was very fresh and very filling and homemade. We did not meet our host, but the woman who checked us in and cooked breakfast was very welcoming and friendly. Unfortunately, we didn't catch her name. My husband and I fell in love with Rito, the B&B's pet, who joined us for breakfast. He is a sweetheart that loves being scratched on his back. Just scratch and you got an instant friend! My husband and I both speak Spanish so we had no issues with language (not sure how it would go for those who do not speak the language), but all printed instructions and the video of the history of the town are in both Spanish and English. Happy travels!

We only stayed here one night but loved the place and the town. Very quiet and relaxing within easy walking distance to town center (its a very small town). Breakfast was fantastic and they were very friendly and accommodating. We would definitely return if we visit that area again.

El lugar perfecto para llegar a Mascota. Muy bien ubicada y muy limpio.

Bertha es muy atenta, casa súper bien ubicada y, si en las fotos se ve bonita, en realidad es mucho más hermosa

Excelente ubicación y casa, Bertha es una excelente host!

La atención recibida por Bertha y el personal de la casa fue excelente. Sin duda recomendamos la Casa del Maguey a cualquier persona que quiera disfrutar de un pueblo mágico o a su paso a Puerto Vallarta.

Vale la pena hospedarse, la casa está impecable, y muy cómoda es mucho más amplia de lo que pare e en las fotos.

La mejor decisión para hospedarse en mascota. Me sentí como en casa. Caminar a la plaza no tiene ningún problema. Restaurantes, tiendas y taquitos muy cerca. Me sentí en una zona tranquila y segura.

This is a great place to stay. I was sad to have to leave sooner than expected. Look forward to staying here another time.

Our stay at Casa del Maguey was amazing! The house is beautiful with Mexican decor, high ceilings, huge kitchen fully equipped. It is centrally located in a safe and quiet area, plenty of secure parking. Upon our arrival the house was spotless. we were greeted by Bertha who was very welcoming also Judith the caretaker was available throughout our stay for anything we needed. Our expectations were by far exceeded, will definitely be returning.

Una excelente opción de hospedaje , si vas a visitar a la Virgen el lugar está muy cerca de la Iglesia y la terraza tiene vista parcial de ella , ampliamente recomendada

Es un buen lugar, muy limpio y adecuado para pasar unos días. Jonathan muy amable

La estancia fue muy confortable, mucho mejor que en cualquier hotel, cumple con todo lo que se ofrece en la publicación, y la atención Jonathan muy amable y atento, Recomendado 100%

Mi familia y yo estuvimos por una noche; la casa es muy bonita y acogedora, está ubicada justo en el corazón de Talpa, con muchos restaurantes y comercios a unos pasos. Fuimos recibidos por Krizia, la prima de Jonathan, quien se porto muy atenta y amable con nosotros. Sin duda fue una estadía excelente, quedamos muy agradecidos.

Departamento muy centrico con buena vista hacia la plaza principal, cerca de todos los servicios. Jonathan muy atento para la recepcion. Buena opcion para hospedarse en este pueblo magico

Excelente lugar, muy comodo, higiénico y con una gran ubicación.

Céntrico, accesible y cómodo.

Una casa excelente, cómoda, hermosa y muy bien ubicada. Todo estuvo increíble!

La casa está en una excelente ubicación

Gran ubicación

This is a great, well kept place to stay with great location. Look forward to staying here another time.

El depa está mejor que en las fotos, muy buena ubicación a pocas cuadras del centro y muy limpio. La atención de Margarita super bien, al comunicarse con nosotros para ver que recibiéramos las llaves ya que ella estaría fuera. Con gusto nos hospedaríamos aquí de nuevo!

Hospedarse con Helena es una garantía de atención y San Sebastian es espectacular

Magical house in a magical town. If you're coming to San Sebastian, you're expecting a colonial town preserved from another era and surrounded by stunning nature. Helena's house is a perfect reflection of the town. A rustic adobe house from another century in a secluded corner of the town (yet within walking distance to the town center) and surrounded by fruit trees and beautiful greenery. It's so quiet and peaceful, all you hear is the sound of running water from the creek that runs through the property, the wind, the rustling leaves, the chirping birds and the crickets that serenade at night. The air is fresh and the vibe is serene. We wanted to get away from the busyness of life and found the perfect sanctuary. The experience is only made better by the hospitality of the lovely couple from San Sebastian who take care of the house. Needless to say, we'll be back. Thank you Helena.

Wonderful opportunity for a special experience in a beautiful place. Helena was a perfect hostess and communicated when necessary and was very informative. The house is a rare find in a special place to relax and be with nature. Delicious breakfast at home and then late lunch at Montebello or one of the other noted places in San Sebastián makes a perfect day. Helena we can't wait to return.

Helena's casita is located in s jewel of a historically old silver mining town, San Sebastián del Oeste, just 1.25 hours from Puerto Vallarta. The town's traditional architecture, central plaza, good quality restaurants and perfect weather in the summer (70's F) make it a true delight to be in. Casita El Refugio (refuge) is aptly named--it is at least 150 years old built of adobe and beautiful sturdy wood beams. Much of the wood furniture are rustic antiques beautifully preserved. It's surrounded by a thick forest filled with birds. The grounds are romantic. Helena kept in constant contact with us as we requested, and Catalina welcomed us and cooked us a delicious breakfast of local ingredients. We definitely plan to return!

The house is located in a quiet area with easy access to the main plaza. An excellent house for a family to stay.

I have stayed in a lot of beautiful homes around the world and Helena's San Sebastian house on the river, has to be one of my very favorites. It is not only beautifully designed, but the setting is so serene and tranquil. It is the perfect place to unplug and just soak in all of the natural beauty of this quaint mountain village. The house managers are warm and welcoming, always offering their assistance and setting up the firepit which we enjoyed after dinner each evening. You are just a short walk from restaurants and cafes as well as lovely hiking trails. Highly recommended!

As usual, Helena's house was perfect for our stay. It is so calm, so lovely, so elegant and charming - just like Helena herself. Thank you once again for everything!

Esta casita es perfecta para una escapada romántica porque a pesar de estar a un par de cuadras de la plaza central, se siente como están en medio de la nada, apartados de la civilización. La casa es hermosa, acogedora, decorada con muy buen gusto y con todas las comodidades; ideal para contactar con la naturaleza, disfrutar el silencio, el sonido del arroyo, los pájaros, apreciar la vegetación exhuberante, observar las estrellas y la luna. Catalina y Martín son muy amables y serviciales, nos trajeron frijoles de la olla y tortillas hechas a mano y estuvieron al tanto de nuestras necesidades, nos pusieron la fogata cada noche lo cual hizo aún más mágica nuestra estadía. Ha sido uno de los mejores lugares donde me he hospedado, lo recomiendo ampliamente y espero volver muy pronto.

Excelente vista e inmejorable clima que nos toco, amplio espacio muy agadable

El lugar es hermoso para quien busca y gusta de un aire campirano, rodeado de naturaleza de la magia que ofrece Mascota.

Le logement est une maison spacieuse, agréable avec tout le nécessaire notamment la cuisine toute équipée. A 10 minutes à pied du centre de Mascota. Patricia est une hôte disponible qui s'occupe de tout et réponds à vos attentes et questions. Quand nous retournerons à Mascota nous réserverons sans hésiter ce logement.

El Mesón de Santa Elena es un lugar único, el personal es muy amable, te tratan como en casa, los dueños son personas muy lindas, lo recomiendo plenamente y la comida es deliciosa!!! En verdad es un lugar que vale la pena visitar :)

The Santa Elena Hotel is a lovely place, with very clean, nicely appointed and comfortable rooms, and an especially beautiful garden courtyard retreat. The service and included breakfasts were wonderful -- everyone was very kind and helpful, and so patient with our limited Spanish-speaking abilities.

Un hotel lindo y buena atención!

This is a very lovely place in a great location run by an excellent and capable person named Rosario with her family. We highly recommend this sacred establishment to all.

Beautiful new building in the old part of Mascota. Close to everything with several amenities in the house we were not expecting.

Historic Bed and Breakfast is beautiful, very clean and well kept and beautifully decorated. We only speak English but the staff was very helpful from the beginning. One staff member even called someone who spoke English to translate our questions about going to areas and then walked us to the taxis to set up our trip. The breakfast was excellent.

Great place, central to everything you want in Mascota. The staff was very attentive, helpful, and friendly.

Mariana and Petie were kind and gracious hosts, even though we arrived almost an hour late with one extra guest! They showed us around the property and let us know about the friendly neighbor and local trails. We left feeling that the sleeping and housing accommodations were a bit overpriced. This is a small, somewhat cluttered house without electricity or hot water where sleeping is offered on cots in a small side room. Bring a pillow and towels for more comfort. Or, do as I wish I'd done and bring your own tent and sleeping bag so that you can sleep down by the river and use the house for storage, cooking, and the bathroom. Ultimately, we were happy with our stay because of the incredible natural beauty of the location. The property sits below a gorgeous basalt outcropping. Just down a small dirt road is a deck overlooking a river where you can have a fire and stargaze. But perhaps most impressively, guests can boulder along the river for 20 minutes to what is essentially a private gorge. There is a waterfall and giant swimming area where you can really be alone and absorb the natural beauty. If you're looking for minimal accommodations but lots of beauty, this is the place.

️ WARNING ️ You may never want to leave this paradise once you visit! Mar and Peti's beautiful riverfront eco-retreat in the mountains of Mascota was absolutely incredible! The hosts are two of the most wonderful human beings I have met. Their resourcefulness, incredible sense of self, and conversation are magical. Speaking of magical, the property is LOADED with beauty. From the river which is perfect for fishing, to the mountain trails and the perfect glow emitted by the stars at night that illuminate the deep Mascota valley! Perfect for those looking for a solid disconnect, a family retreat, a journey to another time, or just to experience a part of this planet that is barely touched by the hands of man! Mar and Perri, you tow are amazing! Thank you for your kindness, inspiration, and wisdom!
