It was perfect.

Melissa H. Midlothian, VA
Review Submitted: May 6, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
* Our family of 5 just returned from Costa Rica - we spent 3 nights in Arenal, and 7 nights at Casa GemadeBali. We cannot say enough about our vacation and our stay at the casa. It was perfect. Location, view, convenience, luxury....it had it all! I've never seen such sunsets 7 nights in a row! The beach was beautiful, as were the pools....the staff was terrific as well. We're not sure we'll ever be able to top this vacation! Hope to go back soon!!
Melissa
Owner's Response: Hello Melissa, We are thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed your vacation at Casa Gema de Bali so much! Your photo of the sunset from the veranda is stunning; thank you for sending it! Saludos, Tracy and Michael

Excellent stay and Casa Gema de Bali

creepo63 Ashburn, VA
Review Submitted: October 24, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My husband and I stayed at Casa Gema de Bali in Buena Vista Villas and Casas to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. This house is absolutely fantastic. The moment we walked through the door and saw the incredible panoramic view, we knew we were in paradise. The house is decorated beautifully and is so spacious. Buena Vista in Tulemar gardens is awesome. A private beach, 3 pools, a restaurant and bar...what more could you ask for? The grounds are absolutely gorgeous. There is an abundance of wildlife you can see just in Tulemar Gardens..monkeys, sloths, birds, lizards. We loved sitting on the balcony for hours and watching the birds. The owner, Tracy Hensley, was so helpful with scheduling activities, a hot stone massage and a chef to cook us a fantastic four course meal at the house on our anniversary. She even called a few times to check on us and see if we needed anything. Fantastic, personalized service. We will definitely go back to Casa Gema de Bali...absolute heaven!!

Really Enjoyed this Vacation!

Thomako Maryland, USA
Review Submitted: September 28, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
A group of friends spend a fun week at Casa Gema de Bali. Between the exclusive beach, the pools and the walkable bars and restaurants, we all had one of the best vacations ever. We loved Casa Gema de Bali! It was clean, new, and very beautiful, both with its designer furnishings and its unbelievable ocean and jungle views. We hope to be able to come back because we are not sure we can beat this vacation.
Owner's Response: Hello Thomako,
Michael and I enjoyed having you and your friends as guests in our house. We also want to thank you for the photo of the Mono Titi monkey group frolicking on Casa Gema de Bali's veranda! How fun!

Gorgeous!

jessiesheila Baltimore, MD
Review Submitted: November 12, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2008
My spouse and our two teen-aged kids just returned from a ten day stay in Casa Gema de Bali. I want to tell everyone what a great place this is! The unbelievable view to the ocean begins literally as soon as you open the door. The casa is perched on a hill and it seems like you are on top of the world. The house itself is literally gorgeous, and very well maintained and very clean. Tulemar Gardens is, from talking to expats and locals, considered the loveliest place to stay in all of Manuel Antonio and we could see why. The beach is great fun. We boogie boarded one day for three hours without realizing it (got a little sunburned, but it was well worth it!). We were all so sad to leave this piece of heaven!

Casa Gema de Bali is a real gem!

Deb Lynn Washington, DC
Review Submitted: October 5, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
I went to Casa Gema de Bali in May, and I had an amazing time! The casa is spectacular, the grounds of the resort are gorgeous, the beach is relaxing and fun...the views are truly unbelievable! If you go, make sure to watch the sunsets--you'll rarely have such a luxurious perch from which to enjoy the sea and sky. (Oh, and you have to have a frozen pina colada, freshly made by one of the attentive bartenders, while you're swimming in one of the perfectly secluded pools that dot the property!)
Owner's Response: Hello, Deb,
We are delighted that you had a great stay at Casa Gema de Bali, and that you enjoyed what many claim to be the best sunset view in all of Manuel Antonio! And yes, those delicious pina colada's at the pools are just perfect at the end of a fun-filled day, aren't they?
Best,
Tracy and Michael
