From $2,895. an intimate group. November 2026.
Reserve Your Spot — $300 DepositSayulita sits 45 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta International (PVR) on the Pacific coast of Nayarit — a Pueblo Mágico of cobblestone streets, painted buildings, and a town center that runs from the surf break at one end to a working fishing cooperative at the other.
The surf is the reason most people first come here. A year-round mix of beginner-friendly whitewater and reliable point breaks made Sayulita a surf town first and a destination later. The food scene punches well above the town's size — chefs running tiny rooftop kitchens, beachfront palapas, taquerías open until 2am. It's the kind of place visitors plan their next return on the flight home.
Structured daily coaching with two tour pros. No rotating instructors, no franchise format.
Dedicated court time at Nawalli Pickleball Club — two tournament-ready outdoor surfaces, one block from the beach. We group by ability so you play your level, not someone else's.
The morning clinic teaches the mechanics. The afternoon round robins and match play give you the reps to keep them.
A private boutique property steps from the Nawalli courts. Sayulita on your doorstep. The group has the place.
Contrast therapy and breathwork built into the schedule, not bolted on. Recovery is treated like training, not a spa upsell.
An intimate group, four days, one town. The people you meet here become the next trip you plan.
Puerto Vallarta native and gold medalist at the Skechers Selkirk Tournament at Pic N Pad in Puerto Vallarta. Jorge coaches with tournament-level precision and the instincts of someone who grew up on these courts.
Skechers Selkirk Tournament champion and Sayulita local. Alejo breaks down elite shot selection for recreational players in a small-group format you will not find anywhere else on the Riviera Nayarit.
“I moved to Sayulita for the ocean. I stayed for the pickleball. Now I run the club the town plays at — and I built these retreats for the players I wished were joining me at 6 AM.”
Twenty-five years building businesses. Fifteen years coaching sport. Playing pickleball at 4.0+ five mornings a week on the courts you’ll train on. Each retreat is led on-court by a Sayulita-based pro — Jorge Minikata and Alejo Desiderio. That’s not marketing — that’s the whole product.
A curated boutique property on Mexico’s Pacific Coast. Where a boutique wellness villa is built for recovery, this property is something quieter — a place that feels like it belongs to the group for the week. Fewer guests, more space, a level of calm that the bigger places can’t buy. The Nawalli courts are a short walk away. Everything else is Sayulita.
Not included: Flights, airport transfers, and meals beyond those listed.

What players are saying.
I’ve done golf trips, ski weeks, fishing charters. This was different. Four days at Nawalli with Jorge coaching, evenings in Sayulita, contrast therapy at Alchemize — by day three my game was sharper and I wasn’t ready to leave. Already looking at November.
Came solo, didn’t know a single person. Left with a group chat that’s still going two weeks later. The courts are legit, the place is beautiful, and Sayulita itself does something to you. This is the trip I’ll be recommending for the next ten years.
