(E-mailed June 8, 2005 following visit) Edwina, ...Hope you are well. We wanted to thank you again for the opportunity to rent the condo. Randy and I have traveled to over forty countries together, and we can honestly say, that your condo was one of the best places that we have stayed. Randy, Rex, and I had an absolutely wonderful time. It was fantastic. In fact, little Rex perfected his walking skills there, and greatly enjoyed eating his meals on the terrace. You were absolutely right about the tamales at the Paradise Vllage market. We must have eaten a dozen. Well, we have returned to our daily grind and can only daydream of the beautiful beach. Hopefully, we will be able to return. In the mean time, can you please let us know the status of our deposit? Kind Regards and a sincere thank you, Julie, Randy, and Rex

We wanted to let you know we loved your place very much. We would definately look at staying again and we will pass your name around to others. Thanks for the call as well, caught Tina of gaurd, everything was more than perfect. The kids said that the pullout and chaise were the most comfortable they slept on for the whole 30 day holiday.

Many thanks to you for all of your assistance in making our vacation one that we will always remember. Sincerely, H. Lucas PS: Many congratulations to you on the birth of your new baby.

(Guest telephoned 12/26 the day after his holiday visit to express his comments) "My son told me you called to ask how our stay was, but I was out at the beach all day, every day ao I missed it. I just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year and tell you how thrilled I was to have spent the holiday at your condo in Nuevo Vallarta with my kids. The service you provided and answers to questions leading up to our visit was excellent. I must admit that I was a little wary of the internet, but the way you treated us gave me confidence. We were very impressed by your home. Everything about it is first class and top notch. My kids loved everything about it. The beach is right out the pool gate. The water was great. The weather was great. You had so many extras, games, TVs, DVDs, movie selections, that they were never bored. We consider ourselves part of the family now and want to come back soon. I have one suggestion, you should leave pictures of yourselves in the condo so we can know our "new family". The staff was great too! See you again soon. Thank you so very much. Ron D. CT

Yes, we enjoyed our stay very much ! There is really nothing that we can suggest you change. The condo is very well appointed and compared with others we have stayed at, you have alot of little extras that make it very,very nice. The information you provide is very comprehensive and helpful. The only comment, which has nothing to do with anything you provide, is that at Christmas it was very busy. At times, there were no lounges at the pool, however, it is a great time to go with a family. This was not a complaint ,just an observation. And, yes, we did get the wine ! Very thoughtful! Thanks Sincerely, Ed And Maxine
