Connectivity & Internet in Sayulita

Good to Know

• Long-term rentals in Sayulita typically include WiFi as part of the lease, so you don't need to arrange home broadband yourself.
• Most residential accommodations have inadequate internet for remote work; plan to use co-working spaces or cafes with fiber-optic connections if your job requires reliable uploads or video calls.
• Sayulita CoWork and Selina Cowork are the two main co-working spaces, located about a block from each other in town center. Both charge roughly $12 USD per day for a hot desk.
• SayulitaWifi provides the most reliable residential fiber option; service is described as incredibly reliable with very infrequent downtime.
• 4G mobile signal works well in the main town area; it drops off only in remote jungle or closed-by towns.
• Buy a Telcel SIM card locally (widely available at OXXO and 7-Eleven) rather than at the airport; it is your best bet for coverage in small towns like Sayulita.
• Mobile data plans are typically available in denominations of 100, 200, 300, or 500 pesos for different data tiers.
• Lower-tier Telcel data plans are designed for social media and messaging, not for tethering; using one as a hotspot will burn through credits quickly.
• Telcel covers the main town and resort areas; thinner reach in the surfing villages between Sayulita and Puerto Vallarta.
• Sayulita is not ideal for digital nomads who depend on high-speed, 100% reliable internet (especially for large video uploads). Test accommodation internet before committing, or budget for daily co-working fees.
