Set like a moonstone in the abundant palm forests which frame the idyllic village of San Pancho, the Inn of the GataGorda offers abundant gardens, charming casitas, and a cascade pool. Embraced by the colors of Mexico, with jaunty peacock blue skies each morning, and the gaudy sprawl of sunset ushering in each star-filled night, this enchanting inn with its spectacular vistas weaves days that unfold like magic, and spins memories that will cling forever. more » « less

This is a great place to experience the real Mexico, but still have all the comfort and convenience Americans on their precious one-week vacation could want. If you are depressed by enclaves of Trump-like luxury, but are not looking to camp in the streets, this is the place for you. Comfortable beds, nice little kitchens, clean, drinkable water, exquisite pool,... more

I spent two perfect weeks with my girlfriend in San Pancho at the Inn of GataGorda. I have never returned from a vacation so completely rested. Every aspect of the experience - the accomodations, the food, the pool, the gardens, the friendly service - was without flaw. We were blissfully happy and now, back in the northwest, we miss it... more

My advice: if you are interested in the puerto vallarta area of pacific coast, GO TO SAN PANCHO. if you go to San Pancho, DON'T CONSIDER STAYING ANYWHERE BUT INN OF GATA GORDA. The Inn is set on a hill that overlooks the charming fishing village soon to become a favorite expatriate community. This gives the inn a cool breeze... more

We've just returned from the Inn of the Gata Gorda in San Pancho, Nyarit, Mexico. The Inn is a gem in the Riviera Nyarit. The casitas are spacious with kitchen, living room and bedroom. They are tastefully decorated with fine Mexican furniture and crafts. They have a beautiful view of the spectacular sunsets. The saltwater pool with waterful is large... more

Ahh, the Inn of the Gata Gorda. First, the physical space. A string of casitas run along this narrow hilltop site within a short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops of San Pancho. On arrival at the Inn, what made me smile was the architecture and landscaping. Well-scrubbed white stucco buildings, beautiful flowers in bloom, generous walking paths and... more

I've recently returned from a vacation in San Pancho, Nyarit, MX. I stayed at the Inn of the GataGorda. The property is spectacular, Clean, spacious, manicured grounds. The casita was the size bigger than some New York apartments. With living room, kitchen, dining area, and wonderful bedroom and bath. Our hosts, Eileen and Tori, were gracious, helpful, and very knowledgeable... more

At the Inn of the Gata Gorda, in the village of San Pancho (San Francisco), Nayarit Province, my mate and I took a blissful two-day break from our time-share exchange at the gulag Grand Mayan/Mayan Princess in Nuevo Vallarta. Perched on a hill in the middle of town (yes, the real Mexico is still here; definitely not Puerto Vallarta-ville), Gata... more

If your idea of a grand holiday is a relaxing stay at a beautiful, comfortable and welcoming inn in a small coastal town with great restaurants, this is the spot for you. San Pancho is a friendly, quiet town north of Puerto Vallarta. The beach is an easy stroll through town from GataGorda past charming shops (try the non-profit next... more

We have been back for less than twenty four hours and are missing the wonderful experience of staying at the Inn at Gata Gorda and the community of San Pancho. The reviews and description of the property are accurate and give you a wonderful sense and overall feel of the property. It is located a few blocks from town which... more

The Casa Gorda is a beautiful house just a few blocks walk from downtown San Pancho. For anyone looking to get away from it all this is definitely the place to go. Quaint town, shopping, local restaurants and flavor. I could have relaxed at the Casa Gorda for weeks. Eileen, the owner, couldn't have been kinder and more helpful. She... more
