We had just a wonderful time. The weather was just great, the house was fantastic, and things all just went good. Thank you for having such a wonderful place and letting us have such a good time being there. You really do think of everything anyone needs while we are there. Chuck and Shirley are still having a good time there.

This is the fourth winter we escaped to Dorado, Puerto Rico. We adore Diana’s beach house. It’s right on the ocean and around the corner from the Kikita Surf beach. The beach house is bright, roomy and fully supplied. The décor is tropical to match the surroundings. Once we filled up the refrigerator, we put on our sandals and walked the stairway down to the beach. We could see a cruise ship on the horizon, surfers and now and then a flock of pelicans.It’s fun to walk over to Gloria’s side walk café. We always get a homemade pastillito and an ice cold beer. Every morning, we had our coffee on the deck and watched the waves roll in. We enjoy the casual, laid-back atmosphere of Diana’s house and its location.

Hi Diana, Thank you for refunding our deposit. Our vacation was not nearly long enough. We already miss your house and the weather in Puerto Rico. We said this morning yesterday at this time we were sitting in 87 degree and sweat rolling down our face and now we are in knee deep snow with more coming. Our favorite part about our vacation was our time spent with Gloria and Frankie. We went down and had our first pastillios on Thursday and went back everyday for either lunch or dinner. They are very nice people. We also met a lot of other locals while we were at Glorias. We enjoyed our stay in your beautiful house. Thanks again for being so accommodating for the short notice. We are beginning to plan our next trip with our kids. We will probably be staying a couple of weeks next time. We want to express our deepest sympathy to you regarding your husband. Norma told us yesterday.

We had a wonderful stay in your home. We liked the location, the waves and their sound... We did not use the air con, always slept with the doors and the windows opened. Denis and I slept on the small beds in the living room. We went to Liquilla beach once (and back to Dorado in the 5 o'clock traffic in San Juan (crazy!!), Cerro Gordo Park twice. Visited Old San Juan, Bacardi (a must...). Did not go to Vieques, too far. As I wrote before, we spent hours on the veranda, looking at planes, ships, surfers. We saw a whale coming out and going in the sea an entire afternoon! Dorado is a nice place with plenty of services. You have a nice house, very pleasant and quiet . We kept it clean as we do for our home. Finally, it was a beautiful week. Have a good day! Monique

We truly enjoyed your home and we plan on returning very soon! We are leaving here in a bit and will leave/clean it as good or better than we found it. I also am leaving behind two good surf fishing poles and some other fishing gear, all that is lacking is line and reels. Please let your guests know that they are now here for them to use but to leave them behind as we plan on coming back to use them again! Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Good Morning, Hope you are keeping warm up there. we are sure enjoying the weather as well as your home!! Especially with the babies, it is just so great to have the area to accommodate multiple schedules, save on meals, and of course enjoy the beautiful scenery. We definitely feel like we found the right place to stay. Thanks for the use of your lovely home.

Puerto Rico was great. we spent our days navigating the island going on various adventures and creating lifelong memories. We enjoyed Culebra and and our nighttime kayaking tour in the Bioluminescent Bay... the best out of Fajardo.

Our vacation was FABULOUS - we loved being able to visit PR and see the old sights, we loved going on our excursions but the highlight of our trip was just being in your beautiful home. We could sit and stare at the waves for hours :) We will have problems sleeping with out the sound of waves hehe :) The weather was perfect the entire trip and we only lost power at the house on the VERY last night for about 15 minutes hehe the candles were great to have at hand - the place is even prettier by candle light!

Hi Diana, The trip was great. I love Puerto Rico (I think it's my new second home!) We didn't do a whole lot, but we've been there before. We did find the show on our own and it was right there in Dorado - it must be new. My husband thinks the beach was great. Overall, it was a very relaxing trip, I thank you for the use of your home - it was very comfortable.

Hello Diana, Thank you so much for everything. We had a wonderful vacation. Your home was lovely and it accommodated all our needs. I'm glad to hear that Norma found the house in a nice condition. We did our best to keep the house tidy clean. Thank you again for making our stay and offering your home to us. We look forward to future trips and renting your lovely home again. Also referring your home to our family and friends. Yes we did get an email about the refund, thank you for that. Sorry that it took long to respond, we were just trying to settle back to California. We got so comfortable in Puerto Rico that we didn't want to be back home. Thanks again Diana! We will be in touch!!!

Hello Diana & Al, I'm sorry I really havn't had time to check my emails. I've been cleaning, organizing and getting myself together. It's always hard when you first get back and depression starts setting in. The realization that you're BACK!!! Anyways, yes, just let me know about the gate... And as far as the house, it was just a pleasure to stay in your house. You are not kidding when you mention all the lovely things you do on your website. To be honest, words cant truly depict the beauty of your house. The peace, breeze, and tranquility that is felt every morning is just memorizing and addictive! I want to thank you both for allowing my family and I to take part of such beauty and enjoy our time in Puerto Rico in such=2 0a lovely place. We truly mean that. On behalf of my family we wish you both nothing but happiness. You seem to be a loving couple that enjoy life... THANK YOU. I will be mailing you a letter in the mail so that you can include it in your collection of guest comments you have in PR. Until next time Diana, because I am SURE I will be staying at your home again.

I had to add this....diana Hi, Diana Do you remember me? We spent one amazing week at your house in Dorado last year. (in september 2008) It was the best vacation in my life!! :) and all of my friends agree on that. So this year we would like to return there. Could you drop me few lines if it's still available and if it's not booked for this september. We are not sure about dates yet. Please let me know. I'm looking forward to hear from you again :) Have a nice day!

Al and Diana, Puerto Rico was one of the best vacations we have ever been on. We explored most of the island and Vieques. We did not have enough time to see all the things we wanted to and I suppose we will have to go back. Everything we did the kids said that was there favorite thing. Yesterday we swam in the rainforest and that was such a great experience. When we went to Vieques we were only planning on spending the Afternoon, but the kids wanted to stay longer so I searched high and low for a room and we ended up renting 2 rooms from a police officer about 2 blocks from the beach. We put his phone number in the book. We went to the bioluminecsent bay and there was no moon so it really lit up, that should be on everyones bucket list. Once again thanks for sharing your home with us.

Thanks so much Diana. We had a wonderful time--Dorado is a gem of a town and your house was great fun. Oscar loved exploring the nearby Kikita beach for its volcanic rock formations and tidal pools. Your recommendations for places to go were superb. And of course--the dogs Bambi, Jackie and the ever-elusive Rex were a pleasure to be with. Take care,

we had a nice vacation-we did not want to leave-another couple of days would have been perfect-sure glad that we had the upstairs unit as it was roomy & the view was amazing-we enjoyed the sounds of the ocean & the rain & waiting for the iguanas to pop up-we enjoyed walking thru the neighborhood as the people were so warm & friendly-we would strike up conversations with those we met-again, we didn't want to leave, but alas, back to reality-thanks,

Dear Diana & Al, Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home. We had a wonderful trip! Our family (of 6!) had plenty of room and we were so comfortable. It suited all our needs and the view was beautiful! We loved the location and were able to make several day trips...the Rain Forest, Old San Juan, The Caves & Rincon to name a few. At the end of the day, it was so nice to come back to your home and....rest! I know we and our children will have fond memories of our Happy Birthday Family Adventure Vacation to Puerto Rico! Thank you! Sincerely, Stephanie & James Girls & Jack-Jack
