Five Star experience

tulare Fresno, CA, USA
Review Submitted: July 6, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
What an experience! The view is world class. The casa is absolutely wonderful. The jungle trails to and from the beach are great. The private beach and grill are fantastic. And our hosts were incredible. Mauricio, Dave and Loraina made our stay so easy. Mauricio arranged all of our excursions (canopy tour, white water rafting, jet skiing, Manuel Antonio), dinner reservations, airport transportation, and rental car. All seven of us (ages 52, 50, 22, 22, 21, 20 and 14) had the most wonderful time and will definitely be back!

WOW

Fabulous at 40 Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Review Submitted: July 21, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My 8 girlfriends and I wanted to find a spectacular place to celebrate our 40th birthday. We wanted a place we would never forget and we found it at Casa de Frutas. Dave and Mauricio were amazing and no details were overlooked. The condo is spectacular with an amazing view of the ocean and fabulous sunsets. Not a far walk to the beach, but take one of the hiking trails down to the beach. Casa de Frutas is also close to some fine restaurants. Thanks Dave and Mauricio for making our "Fabulous at 40" Trip so memorable.
Owner's Response: We had a lot of fun iwth the "Fabulous at 40" group.....they were very, very active.....always something going on! (One note for clarification, she did use the word "condo"....Casa de Frutas is a villa.) We look forward to their return on their 50th!!

Week at Casa De Frutas - Paradise

Review Submitted: April 26, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We just spent a week- 5 girls, the "Cinco Chicas" and had a blast. Mauricio and Dave are top notch hosts.
Manuel Antonio is a beautiful area and IF you like to walk you will have no problem getting to shopping - grocery and souvenir as well as dining without a car! Cabs are easy to get - Mauricio can help if you want one.
The walk to the beach IS steep and quite a workout on the return - but there is a shuttle.
We rafted and did the canopy tour...and spent lots of time enjoying the casa - had a chef come in for the last dinner.
Great restaurants - Aqua Azul, Barbar Rojas, Dos Cocos.
Expect great service from anywhere Mauricio and Dave recommend - everyone in town knows them. We all plan to return - one has already booked a week for her family!
A spectacular home in the jungle - ENJOY!

HAC203490 Potomac Falls, VA
Review Submitted: April 19, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Our stay at Casa de Frutas was nothing short of amazing. The home, pool, grounds and views are stunning and the animal and bird watching from the expansive terraces is outstanding. Despite being on vacation, we arose by 6 a.m. every morning (even our late-sleepers) to watch the monkeys traverse the tree tops of the property. Dave was a gracious host and Mauricio has the gift of anticipating a guest's every need. We regret (1) not spending more time at Tulemar's beach; and (2) having to leave.

HAC202589 Tulsa, OK
Review Submitted: April 14, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
The experience of staying at CDF was beyond words. From the moment we arrived in Quepos to the moment we departed we were treated like royalty. The home's pictures don't do the property justice, and anyone who is considering this versus any other home in the region know this is THE PREMIER home in the area. Add the amenities of Tulemar and you have the perfect vacation destination. The staff was as spectacular as the home. We can't wait to book our next trip here!
Owner's Response: A great group from Oklahoma...thanks for the kind words....looking forward to your return!
