Amy and Lucas had built homes together in Colorado — Amy with an eye for design that had always been part of who she was, Lucas with the builder's obsession for getting every detail right. When they found this one-acre plot in the valley outside Sayulita — introduced to it by their friend Miguel — they saw something most people wouldn't.
They transformed the original Hacienda first, then built the Villa, then the Casona. Not through architects or contractors — through vision, craft, and an almost stubborn love of the place.
Their friend Miguel watched the dream keep growing. He couldn't believe how big they were dreaming. One day, he put his hand on Lucas's shoulder and smiled: "Lucas, aqui en Mexico vamos poco a poco." And that became the name.
"Aqui en Mexico vamos poco a poco."
— Miguel, the friend who introduced us to this land
Amy and Lucas discover the one-acre plot outside Sayulita through their friend Miguel. They see potential where others see jungle.
The original structure — transformed over time into the colonial-style heart of the estate. Long shaded verandas, exposed beams, red clay tiles.
A contemporary complement to the Hacienda. Modern finishes, a professional chef's kitchen, Oaxacan textiles, and custom tiles from Guadalajara.
The 16-meter heated saltwater pool, the Temazcal, the ice bath, and the open-air yoga studio take shape.
Full glass walls, open double-story ceilings, a chef's kitchen, and an open-air bathroom surrounded by trees.
The estate hosts weddings, retreats, and private groups from around the world. Amy's design eye keeps it beautiful. Caleb handles bookings. Roy manages the property. And Lucas still dreams about what comes next.
Amy's design sensibility is the reason Poco a Poco looks the way it does. She is still here, still caring for the place, still making it extraordinary every single day.
A home builder from Colorado who traded mountain winters for the Sayulita valley. Built every structure on this property alongside Amy.
Amy's son. Caleb handles every booking personally — weddings, retreats, private stays — and makes sure your group is taken care of from the first message.
The steady presence on-site. Roy ensures the estate runs flawlessly and every group has what they need throughout their stay.
The Sayulita local who introduced Amy and Lucas to this land, watched the dream grow bigger than anyone expected, and gave it its name.
Sayulita is more than a beach town — it's a UNESCO-recognized Pueblo Mágico, celebrated for its cultural richness, natural beauty, and spirit of community. Art, surf, mezcal, and music dance through cobblestone streets.
Poco a Poco sits outside town in the valley — minutes from the surf break, markets, and restaurants, but completely private and removed from the crowds.
45–60 minutes from Puerto Vallarta International Airport, depending on traffic. Private airport transfers available.
