"I
wanted to thank the entire Escape Villa's staff for providing me a
wonderful vacation in Manual Antonio at the Dolce Vita villa.
From the moment we arrived till the minute we left, the staff provided
excellent service which made for a relaxing vacation….. And
the villa was simply beautiful and breath taking! Manuel Antonio is
definitely a special place in my mind.... more beautiful and
jungle-like than I ever expected. This was the first vacation I have
ever had where I returned feeling truly rested. I thank the entire
staff for making my vacation a wonderful experience for me.
A special thank
you to Shay for coordinating all of the arrangements with me and my
group over the past several months. A special thank you to our
excellent host. He was there whenever we needed him and his initial
tour was really helpful to acclimate me to the town. A special thank
you to Lester who stepped in when we needed him. Lester took care of
the pool and got us whatever was needed. And to Alida (maid) and
Gustavo (guard) and Tinkerbell (his cute dog) - a very special thank
you. The hard work that they both put in to making sure we had a safe
and clean/tidy stay was very much appreciated.
Since my return
to the states I think about Manuel Antonio many times throughout the
day. I do miss it! I especially miss seeing the monkeys and the view of
the Pacific Ocean each day... but I have many photos that will bring
back good memories for many years to come. I've been sharing my photos
to friends and family and tell the stories of how wonderfully special
Manual Antonio is and what a great job/service Escape Villas provides
in a beautiful villa. Everyone is impressed. So don't be surprised if
my family and friends begin to call you to book a vacation of their
own. I too would love to come back someday.
Lastly, I must
say that the Costa Rican people are the most thankful people I have
ever encountered in my life (not to mention extremely hard working and
best serving). I meet people all the time as I am in the public
relations business and it was so nice to see the level of gratitude
that the Costa Rican people possess - even for just the little things.
And quite honestly, that is how life should be. What my visit to your
beautiful country taught me (other than how to relax) is not to take
anything (even the smallest thing) for granted. Because sometimes its
the real small things that can make for a persons day, week or year. So
again, many thanks to everyone.

"First,
what a fabulous home! The Casa
Dolce Vita is perfect! I did not see, nor could I imagine a nicer spot
to stay! Second, the Costa Rican people are so nice and so helpful!
Third the jungle is such an amazing place-so incredibly alive and
active! I can only add that the monkeys stole our hearts-they seemed to
know how much we loved them and responded by allowing us to be very
close to them-they fed out of our hands! We leave with our hearts full
of the spirit of Costa Rica and we hope to return one day!"
