Dear Ann and Xinia, From Suzy and her family of 3 persons. We want to thank you for all you did to help us to have the best vacation of our lives….and we have had some great vacations. This one topped them all. Xinia was wonderful. (Xinia is Ann’s assistant in Costa Rica) I felt so much more at ease when we arrived knowing someone was looking after us. Her meals were terrific and accommodations very good. Arenal was amazing. We had an incredible view of Lake Arenal and loved the feeling of being in such a natural setting. White water rafting on the Balsa River was TERRIFIC…zip line was beyond words and Canyon Rappelling was a blast!
Accommodations in Tamarindo were very nice as well. We woke at 5 am for my son to meet his surfing coach by 6 am. The coach was from Banana Surf Club. We went to a beach with challenging waves but not overwhelming. We kayaked, snorkeled, and dined watching the sunset. We relaxed by the pool and enjoyed the hospitality of the local people.
We could not have asked for a more perfect trip. And Ann I will give your email to anyone I know wanting to vacation in Costa Rica. I am so grateful that the internet allowed our paths to cross.
We are organizing our pictures and if you would like any for your website, I will be happy to send you a link to the photos.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you… Suzy contact Ann www.costaricalearn.com
