"Dear Doreen and Michael, Your condo is absolutely gorgeous. The first thing that my family said as they entered it was , "Good Job, Mommy!" I loved all the tile, beautiful and practical in the marine climate. All of the rooms are so spacious and comfortable. The terrace also enhances the experience. We sat outside for many breakfasts and snacks. We also really enjoyed the location. It is so quiet, and the beach so secluded that it is truly relaxing. We hopped on the bus and went all over, so we did not feel isolated, either. A fabulous place, a lovely vacation and a reasonable cost. Who could ask for more? I miss it. Thank you so much for everything. And you can always use us for a reference if you'd like. Thanks again."

"Hello Doreen and Michael, We had a wonderful time in your lovely condo. The location is perfect it's nice and quiet compared to Playa Royale. Manuel and the Sea Horse Restaurant are a real plus. We walked to the town of Bucerias (almost 2 hours) and only ran across a few beach-front eateries. Attached is a terrace photos if needed. We only had one issue upon arrival as there was no key for us available. The limited Sunday staff was somewhat confused but helpful. As seasoned Mexico travelers, we are accustomed to the laid back attitude. We hope to return." All the Best, Brian and Nancy

"I think I caught up on my sleep now. We were so exhausted when we got home. Thanks again. You have a great place! We had a hard time getting there. All our flights were late. We were suppose to arrive at 1pm but didn't until 10pm. The next day we went to the mall and book 2 trips then went out to a restaurant. Friday we were up way too early for vacation to do the Pirate ship. We had a good time. Dad had to arm wrestle on the beach. You don't have much choice. You get dragged in the show. It was cute. Your kids are too old for that. Then we chilled out on the beach and ate at the Bahia del sol. Manuel was so nice. Jim kept saying he was "setting this up for ya" with Manuel. Those two became good friends. Saturday we went deep see fishing. We saw 21 whales,per Anna's count. By the way they loved the turtles. We rented the boat for 8 hours. We drove 1 hour out, fished for 45 mins and poor Sam and I just couldn't take anymore. Sam was throwing up from the sea sickness and we have very calm water. We did catch 18 Bonitas and a Mackrel in that 45 mins. We took the fish to Manuel. He was so excited to cook it for us. I'll attach the picture of the platter. He was so excited to get the egg sacs. He was telling us how expensive it is at other restaurants. He cooked one for Jim to try. Dad and Anna tried but it was Jim who ate it. We told Manuel to keep the rest. He cleaned the fish so there were no bones or skin. He cooked it 4 different ways and served it with rice,veggies and bread. It was so good. Sam, my picky eater ate a ton. He just about begged Jim to bring the left overs the next day to make fish tacos. The cook even told us what time to come back to make sure he was in the kitchen. They were just so excited that Jim loved the food they cooked. So the next day we went to the old town and we too tired to eat out. The rest of us fixed dinner in the condo. Jim went down to see Manuel with he left overs. After 5 tequila shots and an invitation to meet his family at his ranch, Jim returned with chicken nuggets for the kids and fish tacos. Again, Manuel didn't charge us enough for the meals but Jim tipped him very well. The service we superb. He would talk to us when we were at the pool in a friendly manner, not like he was trying to sell us. I will say I was tired of the bargaining. I just want to know how much, not how much I'll pay. The weather was perfect. Your neighbor was nice and seemed disappointed Mom and Dad were leaving. Over all, You will love that place. The view is beautiful. My only regret was not having enough time to go to the mountains or that you guys were not there. Thanks again!" Terri and Jim

"Had a great time in PV. Before Terri et al arrived, mom and I took the whale watching, snorkeling tour. Saw lots of whales, one as close as about 30 yards away. We also saw the Rhythms of the Night. Mom and I went to the bathroom as soon as our dinner table was selected and we got lost coming back. We needed the help of one of the staff to find our table in the candlelit lighting. Another day we went into town for a few hours. Of course in-between we enjoyed the beach and the restaurants. When Terri and Jim arrived they were exhausted because they missed their flight connections due to icy weather in Charlotte. Instead of arriving around 2:00 pm, they got to the condo at 11:00 pm. Also their luggage did not arrive until the next afternoon after Marcia tracked it down for them. During their stay with us we went to town, took the kids on the Pirate ship excursion, and went deep sea fishing. Nineteen fish were hauled in by Anna, Jim and Sam. Mostly Sam. We had to cut the day short because Sam got sea-sick and was throwing up. The kids really enjoyed the beach, especially the turtle thing each night. Jim and Terri are going to tell you what a fantastic meal Manual had prepared with the fish we caught."
