A quiet arts town with a wide, wild beach, a polo field and a sunset that empties every terrace. A private chef who arrives fully provisioned and cooks farm-to-table dinners and retreat meal plans in your San Pancho villa — one hour north of Puerto Vallarta.
San Pancho — officially San Francisco, Nayarit — is Sayulita's quieter neighbor ten minutes north: one main street, Avenida Tercer Mundo, running down to a long beach with a strong shore break and famous sunsets; La Patrona polo club and its Saturday market on the edge of town; and a community that hosts a yoga retreat or a film festival more weeks than not. Villas sit on the hills above the beach, in the Costa Azul and Las Clavellinas areas, and in the jungle just outside town.
It is an hour from the airport and the shops in town are small, so we come fully provisioned from Vallarta — fish from La Cruz, organic produce, wine, ice and equipment. Our San Pancho work leans farm-to-table and group-friendly: long family-style tables for retreats, plant-forward menus for yoga weeks, and plated dinners on the terrace as the sun goes into the Pacific. Nobody drives to Sayulita for dinner.
An hour from the city, a few small shops in town and the best sunset on the coast — the case for a chef makes itself.
Organic produce from the La Patrona Saturday market and the Nayarit farms, cooked simply and served family-style.
Yoga weeks, workshops and wellness retreats: plant-forward breakfasts, lunches and dinners for the whole group, every day.
The whole town walks to the beach for it; your terrace has the same view and a plated dinner arriving as the sun touches the water.
Everything comes with us from Vallarta. The shops in San Pancho are lovely and small; we don't rely on them.
In season, La Patrona hosts polo matches and a market on Saturdays. Go for the match, come home to dinner.
Month-long rentals are common in San Pancho; we set up weekly dinner nights or full meal plans so home cooking never becomes a chore.
We bring everything up the coast and cook it on your terrace — one dinner or a whole retreat.
