About

Buried deep in the heart of the Sierra Madre Mountains (around 2 hours from Puerto Vallarta), San Sebastian's remote setting has made it one of Mexico's last remaining secrets.

While this tiny mountain enclave (elevation 4500 ft) isn't far from Puerto Vallarta, it's still a world away from the usual tourist haunts.

Over the years, the town's population fluctuated wildly as gold and silver were mined intermittently between the 1600's and the 1930's. It now has a population of 600 and the main industry is coffee and agave cultivation.

An ancient Mexican town, filled with colonial architecture and people who still appreciate the simple life.
