South Padre always has a ton of activities planned no matter what weekend you 'get away' And Schliterbaun Water Park is right there!!!!
Family of 4! My husband is a local Corpus Christi Police officer and works whenever he can - so we needed a place to get away but still be close if we needed to come home! The Tiki has a family friendly atmosphere that my twins love!
This is NOT a high rise! Beautiful landscapes which give you the feeling of Tropical paradise! The staff is very helpful and willing to go the extra mile. All of the owners take pride in there units!
We love that this ISN'T a high-rise! And is located right on the beach. My kids love to swim in the pools and enjoy the grass area when we bring one of our Chihuahua's along!
One Bedroom with fold out queen couch and fold out full couch in living area. King size bed in bedroom purchased January 2016.
Really enjoyed our stay! Condo was clean and well appointed. Had everything we needed for the week. Furniture is very beachy and beds comfy! Owner was super nice- easy to get ahold of. Complex is beautiful/ heated pools were awesome and they had just redone them. Will definitely come back!
My wife and I had a great time during the last part of our anniversary trip here at the Tiki. This room was perfect with private access to the beach, 2 pools and great location with close proximity to all of the hotspots. It had the MOST COMFORTABLE BED my wife and I have used which gave us the best sleep we have had in a while. It came with nice amenities and would recommend this place! Any day at the beach is a great day.
Condo was wonderful! Comfy bed and plenty of room for my cousin and I! Landscaping around condo made you feel like you were in Costa Rica!! We drove to the beach because we had a cooler so if you don’t have a car, it’s a good walk if you have a lot of stuff! There are two pools that we didn’t utilize but they looked nice! This unit is the furthest from the beach but you can see the bay out the glass doors so that was very nice! We went paddle boarding in the bay through Wheels on Padre and used a groupon and that was awesome!! Ate at Blackbeard’s which was very good seafood. Clayton’s food was a let down, just bar food there really. We had a very relaxing week and great weather!!
We really enjoyed our stay in this clean beautiful condo. We didn'y stay in the condo much, but it was very comfortable and we loved the couches. It's in a perfect location with beach access and the property is very clean with beautiful landscaping. Tiki employee Susan Perella, all property staff including the property security guard Oscar were all very nice, kind, professional and reassured us if we needed anyting they were just a call away. We look forward to our next stay in this condo.
Just like everything, nothing is perfect... It was fine , It was clean, couch beds not to confy a/c to noisy and cold could not adjust right , shower hose is about to burst..kept on kinking. Last nite here upstairs neighbors were to rowdy, we were pretty angry..I wanted to go upstairs and talk to the parents.. But my kids were scared..But we liked everything else...
South Padre Island Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Center is Right Across the street along with the South Padre Birding sanctuary/Viewing Area!
This beach lover's ocean front property, which also borders a lush palm-surrounded riverbed, is located on the sand directly in front of the well known 'Burro's' surf break, in a community called Punta del Burro. Punta del Burro is one of the earliest Punta Mita developments, which accounts for both its charm and its isolation – it is not adjacent to any town or village, and, as the rest of Punta Mita, it is far from any of the problems currently associated with border towns and other urban centers in Mexico. It is private, it is safe, and you will experience the luxury of being able to watch the surf from either the patio in front of the main house, the private palapa off the Master Bedroom, or under the palm trees in the cozy sand-level sitting area.
1. Casa Selvatica, the main house in front on the beach, and the bungalows ("casas") in the gardens in back. Casa Selvatica is over 2000 square feet, has a living room, dining room, well-stocked kitchen, a guest room (queen bed) with patio and an entire master bedroom suite (king bed) upstairs with private palapa/patio look out area out over the ocean. Sleeps 4.
2. Casa Buena Suerte, a suite with a large bedroom (king bed), a living room with two sleepable couches and a kitchenette, outdoor porch w/ table and chairs (Sleeps 2 - 4)
3. Casa Lilia, a studio with queen bed with a small kitchenette, indoor and outdoor showers and outdoor patio w/ table and chairs.
4. As of May 2016, the new Casa Cielo - a loft apartment up in the trees - with bed area, kitchenette, bathroom covered by Palapa (thatched roof), and copper bathtub/shower and lunges in the open air under the palm trees. Sleeps 2 (Queen bed, outdoor cooper tub/shower, kitchenette, dining area.)
Depending on your wishes and numbers of guests, you may rent the main house or one or more of the bungalows ("casas")- we have various combinations to make it work for you. Please email to discuss as priority is given to renting the entire property.
CHEF: we have a professionally trained fabulous chef who will shop, prepare your meal, serve and clean up either one, two or three meals a day at very reasonable prices. Inquire re/ rates.
AUTO: our administrator has fully insured cars he can make available to you also at reasonable rates. He will pick you up at the airport, stop by the market if you wish, bring you home, give you a tour of the property and leave you with the car.
Designed by architect Cristina Duque, these houses are full of creative exotic touches and unique approaches to design using tropical hard woods, cantera (Mexican volcanic stone), coral and marble. The large sweeping walkways, open air living areas, and high bamboo ceilings keep the houses cool year round. Tropical rare plants, orchids, haliconias, gingers, palms, cycads, fern trees, etc., dot the lush abundant landscaping designed by botanist Carlos Sacamano. Over 18 varieties of tropical birds are ever-present visitors to this beach, these gardens and the palm forest next to the river bed.
The Casa Selvatica property is located on an acre of land in Punto del Burro, one of Riviera Nayarit's most desirable secluded neighborhoods. The Punta del Burro community is gated, private and secure with 24/7 guard service. It is located approximately 25 miles north of Puerto Vallarta, 5 miles before the Punta De Mita Four Seasons Hotel, 3 miles past the new International Marina in Cruz de Huanacaxtle and 15 minutes from the surf town, Sayulita. Punto del Burro is secure, quiet, and beautiful, offering spectacular views of the bay as well as a fabulous white sand beach free of crowds and vendors.
If you enjoy walking through gardens and palm forests, you can find at the back of the property a newly planted orchard of many varieties of bananas, papayas, pineapples, oranges, lemons, limes, limas, tangerines, grapefruit, lychees, passion fruit, guavas, guanabanas (cheramoyas), mangos and avocados. Given the incredible growth patterns in the tropics, many of the trees are starting to bear and you may find your own 100 lb. bunch of bananas hanging in front of the house. Depending on the time of year, you might also find a vegetable garden full of many varieties of lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, peas and many herbs: basil, oregano, parsley, chives, cilantro, etc.
The beauty of this property is that not only is it sitting directly on the sand in front of one of the area's best surf breaks, but it borders a lush tropical river bed with paths that go back through bamboo patches and palm trees ending up in an orchard surrounded by pink and orange bouganvilla plants - a true paradise for surfers, beach lovers, bird watchers, photographers, nature lovers and anyone who relishes the privacy and solitude afforded by a spectacular property and house located at the end of the road!
The main peak at Burros is a fast rippable right with a short left. Often there is another peak which will have good lefts and the occasional fast right with a fun beach break as well. Directly in front of the house is a very forgiving wave, perfect for beginners - however, many prefer it to the point as it is never crowded. This wave also happens to be perfect for boogie boarders and stand up paddle boarders! Burros is known to hold any size swell as well as be a wave magnet when other spots aren't breaking. I would say the surf is usually chest high with bigger sets.
'The best surf in winter is found around Punta de Mita and inside the Bay of Banderas on the sheltered reefs such as Burros, Playa La Lancha, and El Faro.'
'Surfers In the Burros area report a sand and rock bottom with a right reef break and occasional barrels working with a west swell.'
'Surf in The North Shore of Banderas Bay: Punta Mita faces due South, with deep-water canyons focusing exceptional waves at off shore reefs. Punta del Burro and Destiladeras Beach among others, have the swells often times swing in with full Pacific power and it is usual to enjoy 8-12 ft waves throughout the year.'
Keywords: Rent one bungalow - or two - or the entire property located on the beach in small community of 20 houses. Perfect learners' wave right in front of the house! Surfboards, Stand Up Paddle Boards & Kayaks available.
Our family has loved this house since it was first built in the late eighty's by friends of the family. The builder was a botanist, the architect won a prize for this her first house, and our family loved the surf in front of the house. It had had a couple of owners before we found it again in 2003 but it has been brought back to its former glory and it is loved by all who visit. It is truly a magic house in a paradise setting.
Because this location is beautiful, private and safe - and you can watch the surf from all the patios! It provides an easy vacation: you can surf, paddle board, swim, boogie board or snorkel right in front of the house; the property is surrounded by a palm forest and bordered by river bed and therefore will stay cool in the summer; as it sits on a hill, there is usually a breeze and thus very few mosquitos; you can sit in the swing (with a beer or glass of wine) and watch your kids or friends surfing in front of the house; the house has all the ocean or surf toys you will need; and if you hire Octavio, you can never leave the property: he will shop, cook and clean up! And Jovanna will put the house in order every morning. It's a unique property and everyone who stays leaves looking healthy, happy and all saying the same thing: 'we will be back!'

Family Fun vacation in paradise. July was definitely hot and humid. The beach was necessary for cooling off. The outdoor dining was fun and the views were breathtaking. The beach was a little rocky but we really enjoyed the quick walk down to the resort and partaking in their beach swimming area. I like loved all the sounds of wildlife. The staff was absolutely remarkable!!!
We had an amazing week at this lovely home. We were so thrilled to spend our very precious week away from jobs, children and life at such a magical place. We had a blast! Casa Selvatica is set up so well for everything we want to be doing while on vacation (eating well, sleeping well, feeling pampered, surfing, shell hunting, reading, relaxing on the beach...) we could not have asked for anything more! Lori was incredibly helpful with pre-trip arrangements and Susanna and Pablo and all of the staff and recommendations were beyond friendly and helpful. We will be back!
Thank you, Allison - It was a pleasure meeting all of you - especially after all the planning by you, Molly and Roxanne. What a feat! And then watching how much fun you were all having. Super nice group of ladies. The staff all loved you! Please do return - now that you are part of the Casa Selvatica Family ! : ) lori
What an adventure. We stayed on this property for 10 days and enjoyed everything about it. Beautiful property and homes. Has everything you could ask for. Secluded and off the beaten path yet not far from shopping and restaurants.
We had a great vacation at Casa Selvatica. The house is even better in person than the pictures show. There is so much character in each and every corner of the house, that you just have to see it to believe it. The different sitting areas on three different levels mean you can find shade anytime of day and still enjoy unbelievable ocean views. The beach was great, we surfed, boogie boarded, and "bobbed" ( just grabbed a life vest and floated around in the waves watching turtles) until we were completely waterlogged. We would recommend having Octavio cook for you as many nights as possible, the food is delicious and well worth the money. Jovana was amazing and kept things super tidy. Pablo is easy to contact and can solve any problem imaginable. We loved it there and hope to go back again soon.
