| How can the Cota Family describe there vacation at Casa del
Pescador?
It was AWESOME. From arriving at the airport--the
sign with our name from Gecko Car Rental, arrival at the house--everything was wonderful.
Marilyn, even though we never met
you, all the information you sent us by e-mail was great. We, as a family,
cannot express the wonderful time we had.
For my mother who is 84, this trip
brought many wonderful memories because my Mom and Dad traveled a lot
and Puerto Vallarta was one of their favorite places--from the Richard
Burton and Elizabeth Taylor era.
My wife enjoyed the privacy of
having her own pool and being able to walk on the beach and pick
shells. My son and I enjoyed the golf at El Tigre.
Basically, we were in
vegetation mode and it was so relaxing. Usually we come back from vacation and
we are
tired. We came back from Casa del Pescador relaxed and happy!
We would like to come back when
the whales have migrated into Banderas Bay--please let us know when that
would be.
We have not stop talking to our friends
about our vacation. If you need referrals, please have people
call me.

We have enjoyed our stay immensely. I painted two water colors
of the beautiful views as we had wonderful clear days with
beautiful warm sea breezes.
The accommodation is well thought out and we appreciate the little
“extras” of Boogie Boards and pool floats as well as the well stocked
kitchen.
The staff are top
notch--the property manager, the gardeners, the pool man and the security guards
are all so friendly! It makes us want to return many, many times and
we plan to make reservations for another vacation here--after all, the
physical accommodation may be duplicated, but the wonderful help we
have received and sincere concern makes all the difference.

What a great house!. I
never want to leave--it’s so beautiful! We spent our days
looking for seashells, running the beach, searching for and finding beach glass. Swimming in the pool was
pure heaven!
Great care, wonderful service at
Gecko Car Rental. Denis is great!
I don’t want to say
goodbye to our holiday time. So I’ll say "I’ll be back".

As our wonderful week in your awesome casa comes to a close, I
found myself wiping tears from my eyes as leaving here saddens me.
We will definitely be back. What we will miss most--waking up and
having coffee on the terrace as we watch the amazing view of the morning
sun as it glistens on the ocean, drinking mucho margaritas in the
Mexican sunshine and the nightly walks on
the beach. It has been an adventure I will always remember.
We will return, that is a promise!
Adios amigos, muchas gracias

We are leaving today after
enjoying ourselves for an exceptional week. The home is so welcoming
and so easy to live in and relax. The swimming pool is marvelous for
young children--and grandparents. The weather is gorgeous!
The property manager is truly a gift--arranging for a “Spiderman Man” piñata for Joey's 6th birthday and
arranged a catered dinner on Thanksgiving--a Spanish feast! We truly
appreciate it.
Hope we can all come
again--maybe for 2 weeks next time!

Thank you so much for the very
best--and most interesting holiday!
From Taco Night in La Cruz to
the market in Bucerias, sunsets at Destiladeras, snorkeling in Punta
de Mita and the Malecon in Puerto Vallarta, it couldn't have been any
better!
What a tropical paradise!
Sometimes you feel you need to pinch yourself to know that it's all
real. All the staff were A-I!
I don’t know what we would have
done without our own private pool--we are spoiled for anything less!
Thanks again for opening your
home to us.

& Laura

Where do we start! Your home,
the view, the culture and the people really completed our trip.
We loved waking up every morning to the crashing waves, warm sunshine
and the smell of the ocean.
The people in the area were the
most helpful, friendly and happy go lucky. They really made our trip
enjoyable! The staff, especially the security guards, are so friendly
and they made it their duty to give us their best smile every
morning. They taught us some Spanish and we taught them some more
English.
Lastly, we would like to
mention Denis and Adam at Gecko Car Rental were amazing with their
suggestions on were to eat and places to see.
Overall this trip was more than
amazing and we could not have asked for more. Thank you for letting
us enjoy your home. Marilyn was an enormous help and without her
out trip would not have been possible. We can't thank her
enough!

spending my vacation

The house was wonderful and
the property manager was very helpful. The canopy tour was heart stopping--but a
beautiful ride.
Thank you for a wonderful
vacation.

and Frank

Thank you so much for opening
your home to us! The house was lovely, the weather was perfect,
and the service was wonderful!
We have never taken this type
of vacation before--renting a villa as opposed to staying in a
hotel--and we were a little nervous about how everything would go.
Let me tell you...it was terrific!
Thank you, thank you!!
We can’t speak highly
enough about Lettie and Jesus. The food they prepared was
delicious-- especially the shrimp which we had them prepare twice!!
Thank you again for
everything. We all had a beautiful time and simply cannot wait to
plan our return trip.

One last family swim in the
pool then we are reluctantly getting ready to end our vacation.
This is such a great house with a wonderful view and it’s provided a
wonderful place to spend a much needed vacation.
We made so many
memories--snorkeling at Los Arcos, fishing,
renting a kayak from Punta de Mita, riding a “banana” at Yelapa,
"Swimming with the Dolphins" at Dolphin Adventures and just hanging
out around the pool.
We enjoyed lots of great
shrimp, guacamole, and pico de gallo to name just a few of the things
we pigged out on over the past six days. Hidden Paradise was a favorite
with its breathtaking view. We’ll miss the sound of the ocean waves
and the chirping of the geckos when we return home to reality
tomorrow.
Thanks for sharing your home
with us, and many thanks to Marilyn for working so hard
to make our stay enjoyable. We hope to return someday!
Muchas Gracias!

This was
our 5th trip to the area and our best vacation ever. Many
thanks to Marilyn who was wonderful and
who truly made this a “vacation” for us.
Thank you
for opening your home to us “strangers from Los Angeles” as it is
truly a comfy and welcoming home. We have treated it with the
love and care we would our own.
The guys
went fishing and caught a few fish which we BBQ’d for
dinner. We spent a morning in La Cruz and had dinner both Saturday and
Sunday at Jorge’s Tacos--Awesome! Letty and Jesus cooked a
dinner for us--such decadence and yummy food! What nice people
they are.
A true
family week spent swimming and having fun with the kids. Of
course, the guys also had to slip in a game of golf as well.
We will
miss the sounds of the ocean.

Marilyn, thank you so much for all the help and the information for
our great trip. Everything was nicer than we expected and even better
than the pictures on the website.
We will be back--but not soon
enough! Thanks again for all your help.

Casa del
Pescador is a wonderful home! Thank you for letting us spend our 1st
Anniversary here.
Your home is
in a great location, with so many things to do. We went into Puerto
Vallarta several days, visited San Pancho, Sayulita, Punta Mita, Nuevo
Vallarta and many spots in between. We hope to be back again and
spend another week or longer.
Both Marilyn
and the property manager were great!
Thank you
again!

Our last
day--I hate to leave! It was like spending a week in Paradise. The
house, the view, the peacefulness was much more than I expected. We’ll be back.

her extra effort!

Thank you so

We have had
so much fun, seen so much, bought apparently too much and are very
saddened to have to go home. We hope to be
back soon.
Thanks so
much.

We have
exhausted all of our supplies, laughed until we have no more tears and
destroyed our livers! Many amazing memories in an amazing place with
amazing friends. We are already planning our trip back and we haven’t
left yet!
We can’t
thank you enough for all you have done for us!
Kelly & Ron
Port Alberni, BC, Canada

Thank you so
much for the use of your beautiful home, it was all we had hoped for
and more.
We rented a
car and put lots of miles on it exploring up the coast--the little
towns to the north are great. We especially loved Don Pedro’s in
Sayulita. While we ate a wonderful dinner we watched a dog
surfing with his master--it was incredible. Also loved the Hidden
Paradise restaurant down the beach. The boy who waited on us there
said that at night he and his brother dive in the bay to get the
lobsters. We can vouch for the fact that they are very fresh and
delicious!
Fantastic
people and a wonderful place to come home to--just an outstanding
vacation.
Most
sincerely,
Katie & Mark
Sequim, Washington
P.S. Marilyn
is great and was very helpful.

When we
talked our friends into coming to La Puntilla, we promised them a
small piece of Paradise. They came…they saw…they experienced…and now
they too believe! We love your home and thank you for being so
generous to rent it to us!
Everyone here
really makes us feel welcome. We intend to book through Marilyn
for next year as soon as we get back.
Thanks again!

Thank you so
much for sharing this incredible experience with us. The house, the
vistas, the restaurants, shopping and people were all so wonderful.
It was truly one of the best weeks of my life. I hope to return with
family and other friends who have never had the opportunity to see
such beauty nor experience small town Mexico.
Thank you.

What paradise! Absolutely
gorgeous! We would have never believed traveling with a 6 month old
baby could be so easy. You have a great home here, thank you so much
for sharing it with us. A dream vacation come true!

Thank you for letting us enjoy your
wonderful home in Mexico. It is a piece of paradise! Margo,
Michelle & Marilyn were wonderful to us. A big thank you to them for
making our vacation one we will always remember.

Thank you for letting me stay at Casa del Pescador. I
had so much fun lounging in your pool and traveling to all
our favorite places up and down the Bay of Banderas. Even
though I am only 4 1/2 months old, I did a lot here and I am
looking forward to coming back again.

Mucho Gracious!
Where do
we begin? From the planning stages of our vacation you have made
this a very pleasant experience. The website, your
recommendations and organization along with a few phone calls to
Marilyn we felt confident about our trip. But then when we
arrived! Breathtaking! Absolutely fantastic!
We are a family that spent seven
beautiful days together, exploring the beautiful area, meeting wonderful
people and visiting the beaches you recommended. Our favorite--Sayulita...beautiful,
quieter, sandy beach..... wonderful restaurant where you can rent tables and
chairs and the best guacamole in the world. From bogie boarding to
snorkeling--visit Oscar in Punta de Mita--he will take you to coves and
places you would never get to! We only touched on our adventure here
and as we understand from home, an April snowstorm awaits us, but somehow it
is okay!
WOW!! We did it all!
Hair braiding, parasailing, shopping, buying, the beaches, the boggie
boads! Collecting shells and stones and so much more! Thank you!!
Carlos O'Briens--Good Lord! Wall to wall people-! We found
the beautiful restaurants--sunsets at La Palapa, none better!
Thank you!
Thank you for opening your beautiful
Paradise home to us and allowing us to take home some beautiful family
memories.
One problem we may have is finding a
margarita or mango daiquiri in the afternoon! Mucho gracias!
Adios!

As we pack to leave our week in
Paradise we wish to thank you for this time in your lovely home!
Everything was fabulous! Your accommodations were excellent! We
love the non-touristy vacation....The Mango Grill & Hector Lopez was one of
our favorites. Catching a bus or a cab to Bucerias was a frequent trip
too! Everyone was friendly and with no more Spanish than "Hola" and
"Gracious" we did pretty good in communicating. It was a great, great
trip! Mucho Gracious!!

We spent a wonderful near-week with

in no small part to finding your lovely home--very comfortable, relaxing and
enjoyable.

Due to a temporary power outage from
a lightening storm I am writing our "thank you" to you by candlelight.
Our last day was spent at the beach in Punta Mita, one of our favorite
destinations in our 15 years of coming to Puerto Vallarta. Truly
enjoyed the solitude, pool, beach and comforts of home during our week stay
at Casa del Pescador. Sad to say it ends tomorrow!
Our pleasant stay in your lovely home
only adds to our desire to buy and live here-- hopefully a dream we will
fulfill soon. In the meantime, we'll return to our own condo yearly
and look forward to extending our trip by staying again in your beautiful
home.
Many thanks for a wonderful vacation.

What a fabulous 10 days we have spent here
in your lovely home! We are celebrating my 40th birthday and let me tell
you that 40 feels terrific here! We had a great time. Thank you so much
for sharing this beautiful home with us--we took extra special care of it during
our stay. If you ever make it to Michigan, we would love to return the
favour and share our home with you!
Maria & Nick

We have had a great week staying in your
beautiful home--it is very comfortable. We enjoyed jumping in the pool several
times a day to cool off. We explored the beach at low tide and out went to
the beaches at Punta de Mita as well. Had a great time here this winter.
Hope to see you in Victoria in the spring.
Thanks again!
