food is amazing! Oscar thank you for remembering all of our needs.
And as the
usual laundry/cleaner of our house - [it was] a true vacation to
have Mariella on staff to have clean clothes and towels! Thank

Day very special & memorable for many years to come. Oscar is the
best "bartender" -- person who works so hard to please us. Anabelle
is a MASTERFUL cook -- gentle, warm person who puts her love into her
meal preparations. Marile did a fabulous job keeping all spic & span

amazing! Can't wait to eventually come back! -- Christa San Filiippe
December 10, 2010 What a wonderful idea I had to come here! I sure give my husband
great birthday presents, don't I? I hear the weather is freezing back
in Atlanta.
Think I'll just stay here and enjoy these 80 degrees + breezes.
The food by Anabel is the best ever! Oscar did every little thing
he could for
us and never forgot a thing. And how nice to have clean clothes
to take back home. Thanks, Maribel! I think for sure we'll be back!
-- Dan & Dona Robertson, Griffin, GA U.S.S (with friends Barbara,

were awesome! Anabella's food was so wonderful... wish she could
come home with us! Mariella kept us clean and ready to go each day.

and even a crab! Don't forget the lizards!
Sitting here our last evening all I can say is
I'm not ready to go home. Wish I could just fly all the kiddos
here for another week. We have had a wonderful week of unwinding
and fun adventrues. Thanks to Tomato for his wonderful hospitality
taking us on a beautiful horseback ride, canopy tour and the mud
baths. We had a great time. The accomodations and staff at the
Villa Mariposa were amazing. They take care of your every need
and the food was wonderful.
-- Brennan & Michele Potts
May 3-10, 2010 Taft & Whitney Sanders Honeymoon (from Atlanta, Georgia) We wanted to come somewhere new,
somewher we have never been - Costa Rica! Taft and I both have
heard such wonderful things about the beaches, activities, wildlife
and more. A friend of mine lived in Tamarindo for 3 years, no I
know why se never wanted to leave! We have had the best time here
at the Villa Mariposa with Oscar and Annabel. We definitely have
put a few pounds on with Anna's cooking (wonderful food!) and Oscar's
cocktails - pina coladas and mango margaritas are the best.
We
had plenty of time to relax and catch up on some much needed
sleep. We fished one morning, catching 4 needle fish and seeing the different
beaches and of course some monkeys! We spent the day with Tamarindo.
Taft learned to surf and I took to the boogey board - met some
nice locals and had a blast - thanks Warner for the ride! We
also
hit Lolas to end the day with a cocktail and to meet "Lolita",
Lola's daughter (yes, a pig!). We traveled to a town just outside
of Liberia with our good amigo Tomato! What an awesome tour guide,
we learned so much!
We ziplined through the trees, saw monkeys
and some tucans, went down the 1200 ft waterslide, horseback
riding then mudbaths and the spa - ending with a wonderful Costa
Rican lunch. Tomato was great company and we enjoyed his history lessons!
Taft and I will definitely be back for the good food and good
company.
This place is beautiful and we could not have asked
for better weather - muy caliente! Gracias to Oscar, Annabell,
Mariela, Francisco, Antonio y Alan for everything - you made our honeymoon
a blast!
--Muchas Gracias - Taft & Whitney
April 12-19, 2010
It is hard to believe that I am writing this on our final morning
in Mariposa! Watching the birds & iguana - listening to the monkeys
- drinking fabulous coffee! These will be wonderful memories - Vidal,
Annibell & Mariella pampered us - food, drinks & clean rooms! My
clothes are a little snugger as I leave! But the indulgences were
greatly enjoyed! And - we shall return!

April 26 - May 3, 2010
On our honeymoon!! It is hard to believe this week is over already!
The weather has been very nice; sunny and warm in the am with afternoon
shower to cool things down. We had massages and peds on the padio;
Evy and Tonya were great. Took the 7 beach tour boat ride, Edwyn
and Jean Carlo were wonderful. If you take an Allan Tour make sure
you do it with Tomato as your guide. We went to Guaitil fo rthe
pottery tour and had the best time all week. Tomato speaks great
English!! The food was great all week. Anavel is a great cook and
you will never go hungry. Oscar will keep you well hydrated and
take care of anything you need, and Mariela keeps the house spotless.
We are both very sorry to return to the real world, but will return
for our 2nd anniversary. Love and God Bless.

P.S. Jackson loves Mango & Watermelon, He will eat with you daily.
March 27 -April 3, 2010
Our dream to come to Costa Rica has finally come true and this amazing
experience was so much more than we could have ever expected. Villa
Mariposa is truly a special place with and outstanding staff that
took care of our every need! Annabelle, Gerard & Mariella are like
family and showed us "Pura Vida" as only found in Costa Rica! We
have never eaten so much wonderful food... every meal was so delicious
(I loved the Mahi Mahi, pineapple salsa and guacamole best!) We
could not help but eat more and more.
The highlight of my day was
watching the amazing sunrise at 5:15 am... an experience I will
always treasure. The waves crashing on the beach, birds singing,
mixed with the eerie calls of the howler monkeys as the sky turned
from pink to orange to blue as Costa Rica awakened was a beautiful
sight. Every day was a new adventrue starting with our entire
family getting massages from Rosa and her expert staff. Next was
ziplining, horseback riding, a mud bath and waterslide trip which
were among
my son's favorites. Exploring the beaches and snorkling with John
Carlo and Arime on Antonio's boat was also a family highlight.
My
daughter's favorite as the boat tour at Palo Verde and seeing
the white-faced monkeys up close and shopping at CoCo Beach.
We
will never forget the wonderful memories and amigos we made here
at Villa
Mriposa and VIlla Azul. We are so blessed to have the opportunity
to visit Costa Rica and can't wait to come back soon!

March 2010
Here we sit on our last night here on our racking chairs reminiscin
about the past week with bellies full of lobster and Oscar's delicious
mango margaritas, pina coladas and banana daiquiris... Where to
begin, we have enjoyed many many delicious meals prepared by Annabel,
who was like a mother to us during our stay. Seafood dishes, such
as Red Snapper, Mahi Mahi & Lobster, along with all the wonderful
lunches and snacks. We dread the scale at home, but we knew the
consequences and it didn't keep us from enjoying the meals!
We enjoyed
numerous activities including snorkeling at Monkey Beach and
gathering shells at Shell Beach with John Carlo & Evin. Viewing Monkey
Head Istalnd and exploring the caves and watching the beautiful sunset
over the Pacific Ocean. These days will never be forgotten! The
canopy tour & ziplines are an adventrue we will never forget!
Fishing was our last excursion and we went for a 1/2 day. I (Laura)
caught
a huge 70 pound Rooster Fish! Great fight! I thought my arms were
going to come off, but I did it and was happy I did - Hopefully
you will see me in the next flier.
This country is a beautiful
one to say the least and the people are beautiful as well -
inside &
out! The staff is amazing and top notch - we love them dearly
and miss them already. They treated us like family and I feel
like we
are leaving our family behind. We hope to be back someday and
highly recommend these villas to anyone! Feel free to email to
tell us
about your experience. PURA VIDA!! That is the truth!!!
--Muchos Gracias per toda. Adios amigas! Mucho amor, Laura & Brian

Don't know what to say - it's been a beautiful relaxing, amazing vacation.
This is our second time here and it's just as good as the 1st time.
Our friends who take care of our every need - Vidal, Jame, Oscar,
Annabell & Mariella - will be missed. I sit here sipping one of
Oscar's pina coladas dreading going home tomorrow to snow! Well
- as the saying goes - all good things... but we'll be back for
sure!To everone at the villas - Thank you so very much
for your kindness, your smiles, your hard work. Stay well!
--Love,
Bruce & Margaret Celotto, Haworth, New Jersey
To all our friends at Villa Mariposa, a simple
Thank You is not enough to say how amazing our stay here was with
all of you. We saw beautiful sights. Your beaches are beautiful
and your people are better. Yami & Vidal are very special to us.
Their smiles and sweetness made us feel very at home. The food
was out of this world. The scenary spectacular. But our staff was
the best. Our sincere Thanks for a job well done. Pura Vida!!!
See you next year!

January 5-12, 2010
What an awesom family vacation! I visited with my two adult sons and
wished I could stay and call Costa Rica home. The staff was accomodating
and then some! Never an empty glass or stomach! Fabulous food, yummie
tropical drinks (a little slice of heaven)! There is so much to
do here too. When your not relaxing by the pool, the tours that
Allan offers have something for everyone's taste. My favorite was
the white water rafting, but the ziplines follow at a close second.
Our tour guides Jose & Tomato were excellent in teaching us some
of the culture and pointing out the wildlife. Howler monkeys on
the veranda, spider monkeys at the zipline & white-face monkeys
on the boat were wonderful surprises. We hope to return and bring
more friends!

Monkeys and racoons, oh my! What a wonderful experience it has been
here in beautiful Costa Rica! Gorgeous morning views, the most delicious
food ever and attentive service from Antonio, Annabelle & Mariela
has made this a trip of a lifetime. Onour 2nd day here a visit from
at least 15 Howler Monkeys, right outside our front door, made our
relaxing vacation even more memorable. God willing we will be back
next year.
--Adios! The Polsons (Vicki & Al), Williamsburg, Virginia
What a relaxing week! Thanks to Annabell, Antonio,
and Mariela - They made the relaxing part easy. Looking out on
the Pacific Ocean also adds to that! "The meals were beautifully
served, yet better to eat - The Red Snapper & Annabell's Tacos
are SUPER!" The Zip-lining was fun & Tomato made the drive to and
from informative. Thanks to many wonderful, friendly people our
stay was very good!

As promised, we made the journey back to Villa Mariposa, this time
accompanied by our son and in-laws, Doug & Sharon.
As we spend our last evening together enjoying great conversation,
great company and the to-die-for view, I feel bitter sweet.
It was awesome spending the week with Olman, Anabell, and Claudia.
The food was incredible, Olman was always attentive and considerate.
Claudia kept our rooms and clothes clean. My husband will not let
olman forget seeing his wife and his mother buck naked" as
we got our massages on the back patio.
We had great fun, great laughs, and great company. This week will
be forever in our hearts and minds. Thanks to Olman, Anabell and
Claudia, your are wonderful. Pura Vida!!

We had the most wonderful vacation at Villa Mariposa! Olman, Annabell,
Mariella, Vidal & Anna were all such kind &
attentive people to be sure we always had what we needed. We really
enjoyed Olman's sense of humor & Annabel's wonderful food!
Mariella always kept our room freash & clean. During our stay
we celebrated our 30th anniversary. They made sure to make it extra
special with flowers scattered on the table,
heart shaped cake, lobster dinner, and 2 swans (towels) on our bed
with flowers! This is such a beautiful place & we can't wait to
return!

Mucho Gracias! Our honeymoon has been absolutely wonderful. It's going
to be hard to leave and return to cold MA but we'll be leaving with
warm memories.
Everyone has been so kind and helpful. If you get the chance to take
the ATV tour in Playa Brusilito - the sand is white and soft and the
water is clear blue.
Also, if you want to see the sunset, ask Olman where to go.
Thank you so much! We'll miss you!

Currently I spend my last unhurried morning at Mariposa enjoying the
incredible view and coffee. It is my intention to tatto these images
in my mind and keep them with me always.
The friends (staff) here have left imprints like tattoos on my heart
and will be remembered and spoken of for years to come at our dinner
table at home.
Olman has personality, respect and happiness that can be contagious.
He is here to serve and performs his job with a smile.
Annabell is a fabulous hugger and even better chef. It's like Thanksgiving
day full here everday! We had such fun talking with and getting to
know them... you won't be disappointed if you do.
While here, we spent most days relaxing by the pool and reading, but
did manage to pull ourselves away for the Rincon De la Viejo Canopy
Tour & River Rafting combo. It was not scary AT ALL so don't let
any fear hold you back...
promise! Going into town (Coco) is like being in another time zone.
Spend some time people watching, you'll be fascinated with the simple
pleasures they enjoy. Returning home depresses me, but all good things
must come to an end, right?
Can't wait to return ... soon!!!

What a great week! We have been fed fabulous meals by Anavel, each
one better than the last. Olman created great new concoctions
in addition to his fantastic Pina Coladas and Margaritas!
Mariela made certain that we were in clean clothes all the time
in addition to spotless rooms before we finished breakfast!
We want to take all three home.
Rosa and her team at Five Star Salon & Spa
were so good. We did a 2nd 90-minute massage at the end of our stay!
Francisco helped with everything from start to finish.
April 5, 2008
It's hard to imagine a place that would fit the definition of comfort
in paradise any better. Or to find kinder, funnier people to be
taken care of by.
Hopefully we will be back next year speaking fluent Spanish so that
we can communicte more freely ;-)
Thank you all so much for everything!

had a fantastic time! The staff was great! The Mia Safari was very
nice, hiking and horseback
riding at the Bouquin Hotel was great.
Playa Ocatal beach is not as crowded and beautiful. Deep sea fishing
with Blue Marlin (Playa Coco) was good. We loved our boat ride at
Paulo Verde - monkeys jumped
into the boat with us! Our daught especially loved her "chocolate" massage
at Bouquin Hotel! We LOVE Costa Rica.
We'll be back!
