About this property

Welcome to Casa María Resort

Casa María Resort is a relaxed beachfront hotel featuring vibrant suites equipped with kitchens, ideal for guests seeking a comfortable, self-catering stay. The property includes an outdoor pool and a game room, offering casual leisure options on site. Free Wi-Fi, breakfast service, and airport shuttle add practical convenience, while pet-friendly and kid-friendly policies make it accessible for families and travelers with pets.

Located along the Pacific coast in Bucerías, the hotel is set in a colorful building with direct beach access. While the swimming area immediately in front of the hotel has some natural obstacles such as seaweed and rocky patches due to conservation efforts, guests can easily find better swimming spots with a short walk along the shore. The proximity to Playa Bucerias and the Riviera Nayarit coastline provides opportunities for beach activities and exploring cultural sites.

Visitors have noted the attentive and friendly management team, with concierge Ivan frequently highlighted for his helpfulness. Rooms are described as spacious with comfortable beds and regular housekeeping, though some guests mention the pool is on the smaller side and the setting can feel somewhat quiet, away from the town center bustle. The hotel is about a six-minute bus ride or a short taxi trip to Bucerías' central area, making it suitable for travelers who prefer a tranquil base with access to local amenities.

Nearby airports include Licenciado Gustavo Díaz Ordaz International Airport, roughly a 24-minute drive, facilitating straightforward arrivals and departures. Guests looking for a laid-back beach escape with practical amenities and dedicated staff support will find Casa María Resort a worthwhile option, keeping in mind the mixed feedback on beach conditions and some noise from the nearby highway.

Loved it! I wasn't quite sure pulling up what we were getting but after meeting the owners brother Brandon we knew we were in good hands. We were upgraded and a delicious breakfast was included. He went out of his way to make sure everyone had what they needed. The people here love him. The room was spotless. Although the swimming right in front of the hotel is not perfect you can walk a couple hundred meters in either direction to swim. The pool is refreshing and just the right size for this place. Definitely will be back!

Great place! Ivan is the onsite concierge and makes sure all of the guests have everything they need. We had the main floor suite and it was spectacular. If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing stay that is just out of the way then this is the perfect place for you. If you would like a stay that is more walkable to the bustle of Bucerias then this might not be your ideal stay. However the bus is only 6 min ride to the heart of Bucerias or a taxi is also very convenient.

This place have great management, Ivan was very friendly and he help with any issue that we had. The cleaning ladies Mary and Carmelita amazing job attitude and service also Don Luis very good job. The place is ok for the price that they have. Pool is pretty small but for us was ok. Rooms are big and, beds were confortable. If I have to say something wrong about this place is… there is not a nice beach but we understand that this area is protected by locals and government because is full of oysters and many different spices live shells.

Charming & quiet resort with amazing views! Rooms are spacious with kitchens. Ivan’s hospitality was top-notch. A little dated but full of character. Perfect escape from the busy town. Highly recommend!

Hidden gem. The rooms are very spacious. Great ocean view from the balcony. The room was cleaned daily. Drinking water was provided. It costs 100 pesos to take a taxi to/from Bucerias. The walk to town is approximately 40 minutes. The on-site hotel manager, Ivan, is extremely helpful and friendly. The only downside to this place is its proximity to the highway, so there is traffic noise. I believe it is fairly priced. We would stay here again.

We love Casa Maria! This is a beachfront property, room was huge and kitchen included everything we needed (even drinking water). Ivan is an amazing host, and all of the staff are friendly and helpful. Ivan has great english, but spanish will help you chat with some of the other staff! Swimming 2 minute walk down the beach (protected area infront of the Casa means seaweed and rocks, 20ish minutes down the beach to town. Quick Uber to Sayulita, San Pancho, etc. Rooms cleaned daily, pool clean and well maintained. Would stay again!

This place is amazing...We met with Kevin the owner day we arrived. Our concierge Ivan went over an above any concierge I have ever had. On our first day we got a ride to the grocery store to stock up on food that we needed + beer and tequila Luisa and her staff kept our place soo clean. Great food and great friends made this vacation one of a kind. Highly recommend this place to everyone
