La Manzanilla

Jalisco, Mexico

La Manzanilla is a small fishing village located in the La Huerta Municipality, at the southern end of Costa Allegra. Sitting in the southeastern corner of the Bay of Tenacatita, La Manzanilla is home to a population of 1,592 people and about 300 American Crocodiles that reside in the 264 Hectare wildlife sanctuary on the outskirts of town.

With international airports at both Puerta Vallarta and Manzanillo within driving distance, La Manzanilla is easily accessible but remains a quiet fishing village for much of the year.

While we suggest spending at least a couple of evenings watching world class sunsets from the private terrace at Casa Kashmir, La Manzanilla contains plenty to entertain the adventurous spirit. Filled with fabulous restaurants providing a lively nightlife, there is always something to do, see and especially EAT. From beach restaurants serving ceviche to multi course restaurants in cozy courtyards the options are endless.

During the day you can take a fabulous ocean tour with Costalegre Eco-Adventures, the local nature conservancy, to see the multitude of ocean wildlife and hopefully catch a glimpse of the whales that frequent the area. Or spend some time closer to shore swimming along the beach, sunbathing, or exploring on one of Casa Kashmir’s paddle boards

Meet The Owners

Jeff & Shary Duncan

Shary’s journey to La Manzanilla began in 1984 when she visited her Auntie Margo Murphy, a pioneering spirit who was among the first foreigners to build a house in the charming coastal village during the mid-sixties.

At that time, there wasn’t a brick in the street or any houses on the hills, and Margo’s stories of the vibrant community and stunning landscapes captivated Shary, igniting a sense of belonging that would linger for decades.

In contrast, Jeff’s first visit to La Manzanilla occurred much later, in 2015, when he was drawn to the area’s natural beauty and laid-back atmosphere.

It wasn’t until 2021 that Shary and Jeff decided to solidify their connection to this enchanting place by purchasing their home on the beach, a decision that intertwined their lives with the rich tapestry of La Manzanilla’s history and community.

Our two-week stay at Casa Kashmir was absolutely incredible! I traveled with my two older teenage kids, and we all fell in love with this place. The house is modern, spacious, and beautifully decorated, with everything you need for a perfect getaway. The beds were super comfortable, and the house came equipped with all the beach toys we could want, making it so easy to enjoy the gorgeous beachfront location. Being just steps away from the water was a dream for me as a swimming enthusiast. We spent our days in the ocean and our evenings soaking in the beauty of the sunsets, whether from the cozy living room or while swinging peacefully in the hammock. The local entertainment added even more fun to our trip, and it felt like every detail was taken care of to make our stay special. Casa Kashmir is truly a slice of paradise—I can’t wait to return!

Casa Kashmir is a wonderful house in a beautiful small town that is right on the beach. The house is perfect for relaxing on the beach with a back patio to hang out, enjoy morning coffee, an afternoon cocktail, or the evening sunset. The town has incredible restaurants, beach cafes, and bars that are all in walking distance of the house. It’s not only a house, but a home away from home. You will have the vacation of a lifetime as I did last year.

WOW!! What an incredible stay at Casa Kashmir, a truly exquisite property. There is no better view than sitting on the back patio as the ocean gently laps the shoreline, while relaxing in one of the hammocks. Oh! And watching THE most outrageous sunsets while drinking a margarita was a dream. Also several charming and delicious restaurants in close walking proximity. This property is special and we have already booked another stay for April 2025. Casa Kashmir you stole our hearts!​

Wonderful place to stay! Right on the beach and a beautiful place to wake up to in the morning. It is in the center of town where you can get great food and drinks, all within walking distance. The house is a beautiful place to stay and is well taken care of. There are also many attractions around the area to visit, like the crocodile park. The owner has done an amazing job of making the house seem like a home away from home. I will definitely be back to visit this AMAZING spot!
