Excerpts taken from the guestbook at Casa Siestas y Olas:
Tony & Bernadette, North Vancouver
“….. Last day and we are sad to leave. It has been a wonderful two weeks. We loved the house and its location, and enjoyed relaxing at night to the sound of the waves. We have explored far and wide mostly by bus and have enjoyed many wonderful and varied meals on our travels. We hope future tenants of this wonderful place enjoy their stay as much as we have.”
Leta & Martijn, Vancouver Island
“……We regularly went on the lookout for crocodiles & managed to see a few. We’re at the end of our stay here and have had a wonderful time. We feel quite at home here and will miss the people whom made us feel so welcome. Until next time … Adios Amigos.”
Leslie, Vancouver Island
“What a beautiful place to be. Really enjoying exploring La Colonia and neighbouring towns. I feel comfortable with the people and am enjoying getting to know their way of life. Love the quiet beach – the waves are big! Four days left to go and already wishing it could be longer!”
Karen & Grant, Vancouver Island
“I can’t believe that it’s been three weeks – I’m not ready to go home. We have had a wonderful vacation……”
Ted & Penny
“What a great place – very peaceful and quiet. Watched the many birds in the garden each afternoon….”
Ken & Shirley, Canada
“It is hard to believe that we were here for a month and now must leave! What a wonderful Casa and how lucky you are to have it! Great town – friendly people!......”
Gordon, Vancouver Island
“….Accommodation is fabulous. Loved La Colonia and La Penita. Neighbours and locals very friendly…..”
Ulrika, Vancouver Island
“…We came down for the quietness and found exactly that. A week was too short and next time we’ll book two weeks.”
Christina & Ulg, Munich, Germany
“….Thank you a lot for letting us stay at your beautiful place here at La Penita…… We really felt at home and have to say that it is way different to experience Mexico in such a nice little town with so many friendly people around! Hopefully we will be able to come back soon.”
Gord, Leandra & Family, Chilliwack, BC
“Today is Dec. 9th. Hard to believe our time here in this lovely home is at an end. Happily though we have another 2 ½ months here in Mexico, just next door at a house we’ve rented in La Penita. Our family has enjoyed our time here and all the amenities Colin and Sabine have thoughtfully provided from sunshiny colourful décor to filtered pressurized water (!), Canadian TV, a washing machine and dishwasher ….. We do feel we’ve started to make our way into the culture here with the children going to the local schools, and the way many of the people here in La Colonia have been so friendly and welcoming …….”
Laura & Steve, Nanaimo
“……Have done some eating in town, taco stand is awesome and cheap, 160 pesos for four of us, and we pigged out! Went to San Blas today for the jungle tour, we saw a croc that was about 1000lbs. She was huge…….”
Kim & Shane, Vancouver Island
“The house – Casa Siestas y Olas – is everything we hoped it would be and more! …..Everyone is wonderful and kind in La Colonia and we enjoyed our stay immensely. Today is our last full day and we plan to spend it soaking up as much as we can! We did all of our shopping at Thursday’s market – get there early! – so all there is left to do is swim and suntan……To Colin and Sabine and family, thank you for sharing your house with us. We really love your homey but gorgeous house and admire all the hard work you’ve obviously put into it!”
Pam, Canada
“Buenos Dias – I am sitting in your lovely home and really enjoying the morning….. The town is very friendly and we love the Casa (it was a lucky find). Thanks for sharing it with us……”
Tom & Rachel, Vancouver Island
“…..The time has gone very quickly after we became accustomed to the pace, which we decided, after the 1st week of transition, is perfect for the life of a three year old and his parents…...”
