"On behalf of our group Lance and I want to thank you for the memorable time we had.  We were excited by all we saw on the web site and researched on our own, but the villa experience went beyond anything we imagined! I think this was our best group vacation ever and it was all due to you and the staff!
 
First my thanks for your endless patience in answering all our questions.  I know others contacted you individually, and we all said "Aren't they great? They are so friendly and helpful."  Your answers and suggestions enabled us to plan ahead for our excursions too.  The suggestion to lay out an itinerary before the trip was the best suggestion you made to me.  In fact Alejandro said we were the best prepared group he had ever met!  Which I find hard to believe since we bombarded him with yet more questions as we decided on our tours.
 
Which leads to my second thanks - to all the tour operators. Our group can bit a bit unruly and we don't always listen well! Alejandro's good humor fit right in with ours and it was a pleasure having him as our guide to Costa Rica.  The love of his country was evident as was his pride in sharing it with us.  It was such fun to see what he would bring back to the bus after a surprise stop - we have an entirely new appreciation for cashews!  The love for the country and the care to preserve it was evident in all the tour guides we met - Anthony, the Palo Verde boat driver;  Miguel and Lawson, our snorkel guides; the fishing captains, the sunset cruise mate, as well as the retired veterinarian who took us on the local nature walk.  We enjoyed meeting them all and thank them for making our trip so special.  And we recommend the villa suggest their services to future visitors.
 
And finally the villa staff.  What good care they took of us in such a sweet and happy manner.  Ronaldo and Felix kept the frozen drinks coming, even when we didn't know we wanted one!  Maria and the staff in the kitchen kept us so well fed - we knew we had to avoid the bathroom scale when we got home!  The food was fabulous and they were so accommodating making sure we got fed even if we weren't present at meal time. It was so pampering to just show up at the table with no concerns for cooking or washing up.  And Christina and the house keeping crew kept our rooms sparkling and pleasant to relax in. Gabriel and Ulysses were also patient in answering our questions and popping us into town for shopping.  We couldn't have asked for more and already we want to come back.  How depressed we were to come back to cold and gray weather."

"I can't even begin to tell you how great our trip was at your Villa.  Thank you so much for the opportunity to get to experience Costa Rica.  Your Villa is wonderful.  I think I experienced a glass of wine or a cup of coffee in all of the ocean view spots.  I chose a different place each day.  The staff and Guides were so great and a lot of fun.  The food was excellent!"
 
Thanks so much!

"Villa Cascada (Pura Vida) WOW it is great!!! Our group of 18 had a wonderful outstanding time. Maria, Rolondo and the rest of the staff were outstanding. The entire time we were at the house not one of us could raise a finger to do anything without being asked if we needed help. Highly recommend the zip line tour on the Congo Trail, true exhilaration. I would highly recommend this house for any corporate retreat or family outing. I cannot wait to visit again, this next time with my family."

"We spent our annual Friends & Family week for 2005 at Villa Cascada.   Our group of 23 were more than comfortable in the spacious villa.  The entire villa staff was excellent, and a very special thank you to the van driver Uylsses for all of his assistance to our group during our stay.  I broke my ankle on the first night in Costa Rica, but I still had a wonderful time.  The staff helped to make my vacation great.  My son spent most of the time in the villa swimming pool and my husband enjoyed seeing the wild life.  I have recommended visiting Costa Rica and staying at Villa Cascada to other friends and family.  My family and I look forward to returning."

"Our trip to Costa Rica will certainly be a memorable one for years to come.  This was our largest group trip thus far and the villa was very comfortable and spacious.  The countryside is beautiful and everyone was very friendly.  The food and drinks were plentiful and the staff was gracious and always
helpful.  Danielito is the neighborhood dog who visited us everyday.  I think he enjoyed our company as much as we enjoyed seeing him everyday.  I would stay at Villa Cascada again, and I recommend this villa to anyone who would like the view from this "big house on the hill".  Pura Vida!"

"Villa Cascada was a wonderful experience.  The amenities of the villa and the essence of the country right outside our door made this a true vacation getaway!

"I have to say the villas exceeded my expectations.  They are both very beautiful.  I also want to tell you that the staff at the villas are top notch.

They are constantly working away and very very attentive.  I was only there for 2 days and it was a whirlwind but Gabriel helped me get everything done that I needed.  He set up a meetings with an officient, water sports, Fredrico etc. etc...

I really got excited for the wedding and now feel much calmer about the decision I made to have it in Costa Rica and at your villas."

Sincerely, Delia

"We had a wonderful time at the Villa.  It was definitely a trip of a lifetime.  The staff was amazing & worked so hard.  The food was incredible and we loved how flexible they were with times.  We were busy every day, River boat tour, deep sea fishing, surfing, snorkeling, and diving.  We also enjoyed the night with the band and the snow cone machine was a huge hit!"

"We REALLY enjoyed our stay at the villas.  We loved the view and the rooms etc. were all very nice.  The warm weather and sunshine every day was great.  Gabriel and all of the staff I had contact with were very helpful and pleasant.  We really enjoyed Phillpe, the tour guide, and Manuel, the bus driver, very much.  They were excellent.  Phillpe is very knowledgeable and his English is very good.  Both were very pleasant and we were with them 2 full days and then Manuel drove us to the airport on our way home.  Hopefully we will be back again."
