Litibú sits next to the village of Higuera Blanca, a few minutes from Punta de Mita and Sayulita. Its long beaches are much quieter than the neighboring towns, and the area mixes beachfront condos, residential lots and a golf course.
Because much of Litibú is still developing, services vary by location. Before buying, confirm how the property gets water and how wastewater is handled, and check road access and permits if you plan to build.
Kevin’s take
Litibú is one of the bay’s best-kept secrets: still largely undiscovered, with untouched beaches. Land and properties here are still very affordable, so you can build an incredible home. Local tip: depending on the exact location, water is usually delivered by truck (pipas) and there is no municipal sewage system, so properties need a septic tank.
Who it’s for
Ideal for buyers who want to build a custom home or own a quiet beach retreat close to Punta de Mita and Sayulita. Less ideal if you want to walk to shops and restaurants or need full municipal services everywhere.
