Thanks Brendan-wish we had more time. bdorsey weber edu. I love this place because it's next to the beach and I live in Utah (USA). No Beach there!

What a perfect spot for 7 kids under 12! They couldn't have asked for better beach weather & swimming. Moms & Dads would have liked less driving time & bumps, but managed to stock up at the stores in Parrita. Henry in MA was the best and could you order a few more great sunsets for us? Tell Snoopy not to chase procupines anymore. Sadee and Jose were very nice and helpful. Jose was great in helping scale the fish. Kiki had fun the first 5 minutes here locked in the bathroom but Jeena did not! The Choy realestate moguls said to get a paved road and you'll be on your way to a great investment...oh add a casino, too! What a wonderful place to relax, far away from chaos. We had a great time in Cabina Tranquilidad, a place that lives up to its name. Great swimming pools for kids of all ages. The children spent their entire days in there! And what a beach, WOW! The sunset...Thank you Jose for the PIPAS. I drank so much of the juice that my stomach was in pain the next day. Nonetheless, the kids had a taste of the tropical juice. Gracias! Hasta La Vista.

My friends and i recently rented the house at la cabinas tranquilidad for a week. We had such a wonderful experience there. It was great to have the beach next door, and Brendon to set up all of our adventurous activities such as canopy tours and whitewater rafting. The experience was very good.

Thanks for a wonderful time! Brendan, you were the best host & tour guide ever! Seidy is a fun & warm person - who cleans impecably. Jose - the gardens are lovely & Ronald - you kept us safe & secure! Mark, your mural is beautiful. We had a fabulous time in PARADISE! The place is WONDERFUL - but the people & staff made it the BEST! Even the dogs made us feel at home!

It was wonderful to leave all the snow (4 feet in our yard) in Colorado & arrive here! What a beautiful place. Our 3 kids LOVED the pool. (We did too.) We had a great sunset bike ride down the beach and enjoyed many sunsets in the comfy hammocks & chairs. It was so nice to be here with the whole family! Thank you Seidy, Jose & Brendan. We hope to return someday! Barry, Beth, Claire (3 1/2 yrs), Chloe & Morgan (1 yr)

The hotel lived up to it's name, even with our whole crew here. The pool, the beach, the estuary & the staff were all sympaticos. We had an excellent time. It will be hard to go back to work and leave the Pura Vida. Brenden-it was a pleasure working with you to put this all together-thanks for your help and advice about excursions. The monkey tour/mangrove ride was great, and we highly recommend Rainmaker-our group of 13 had a private tour-the food was great & we learned alot about the Rainforest plants and animals-worth the price!

Thank you so much for taking such good care of this beautiful place. We had an absolutely great family reunion here. The rooms and grounds were so clean, and the tours we had were great! I personally enjoyed Rainmaker the best. I overcame my fear of heights (at least for the afternoon) and the swimming hole at the endof the hike was PERFECT. Thanks again! Maybe we'll see you again sometime.
