inside scoop

• Most houses include a gold cart rental but if not, book it in advance! Contact Roy at royras77@hotmail.com.
• Babysitter: Sayulita Childcare: 917-748-0977
• No high heels! The streets are mostly cobblestone and even a wedge is a little dressy and difficult to navigate on the bumpy streets of this laid back beach town.
