WHAT RENTERS SAY ABOUT RENTAL CONDO LA VIDA LIBRE
IN MANZANILLO - MEXICO ...

Please read some testimonials from our guests. They truly felt at home in their vacation condo in...
Condo La Vida Libre, Manzanillo - Mexico.

Hi Astrid,

Sorry for the late response but I would like to say we sincerely had the best vacation we have
ever had while staying in your condo. The entire area is extremely beautiful, the people superbly
friendly and the weather fantastic. Once we arrived at Las Hadas we were in awe. The setting is
something out of a postcard and we couldn't believe how gorgeous your view is. Once we walked
in the front door of your condo we felt quite at home. Everything was clean, in order and we knew
that we had to cherish every minute of our stay.

We spent our time wisely as we visited the local beaches, shops, restaurants and even took a
bus to Barra Navidad. I must admit my personal favorite thing to do was to get up in the morning
and enjoy the view off of your balcony. Thanks so much for having us and we look
forward to more frequent trips. We even discussed coming back in the Fall so I am hoping :)
Thanks again and we will be in touch.

Best Regards,

Astrid,

What a great trip!! Well, we're home and we had a really nice time & your condo is beautiful!
Cindy & I really enjoyed our stay there & feel really good knowing we have such a nice place
to go when we want to get away. We had a fantastic time on the beach and seeing the local
sites. The condo has it all & the bed really seemed comfortable to us after our long days on the
beach, ha. ha. No, really, we both slept very well at the condo & it is so peaceful and quiet there
all night long into late morning. I can't tell you how much I appreciated the Wi-Fi to stay connected
and keep in touch with everyone at home. Your information booklet is great, as is your DVD/CD
collection & I love the computer so wouldn't have been near as happy without the Wi-Fi. It was
really nice to have the big jug of purified water. I really can't think of a thing you could do to make
it more enjoyable & I also think that the price you charge is very reasonable. We did venture away
from the beach area to go to town a couple of times for shopping and lunch, but really found that
we had everything we needed right there. Thanks for renting to us and we look forward to doing
it again next year. We can't wait to go back.

Kindest regards to you, Jack and the kids.

Dear Astrid and Jack,

We had a fantastic time in Manzanillo and enjoyed every minute of our stay in your beautiful
condo. Everything is exactly as it looks on your website. Each and every day was like a
paradise with the ocean, the warm breezes and lots of sunshine. The radiant colors of the
flowers everywhere, lush greenery and the sun glittering on the water were even more beautiful
after leaving the snow and winter weather.

Our first night in Manzanillo there was a large parade in observance of Lent. We were lucky
enough to ride in the parade with the Puerto Las Hadas condo owners and pass out candy
to thousands of people lining the streets for miles. The smiling faces and "high fives" made
us feel welcome.

Our friends, Bill and Joanne (from our Michigan Condo) were excellent tour guides to all the
wonderful sites to see. We went on a whole day trip of the area. Each night was a new and
exciting restaurant with delicious meals. One night our dinners were half price as the restaurant
was celebrating their 30th anniversary. We didn't realize this until the waiter brought the
bill and informed us it was on a large sign outside the restaurant. Not knowing Spanish we had
all totally missed it. Everywhere we went we met so many awesome Mexican people and they
were happy, friendly and loved the "Gringo's".

Many thanks again for sharing your condo so others can enjoy the beauty of the area. We plan
to come back again.

Hi Astrid,

Thank you so very much for the use of your condo.  The view is just fantastic from that
side of the building. Jim and I  always used the back stairs as we found it good exercise and
more convenient to get around. The studio was perfect! We found the restaurants to be very
reasonable in price.  We ate at the cafe by the pool every morning. Fernando is a gem and
you can tell he really loves children. He is always patting them on the head as he walks by.
Laura was also another favorite. I love the pool! Every morning I was on the deck overlooking
the ocean by 9 a.m. It was so very enjoyable reading and looking at the waves, the birds  and
the big ships going by. We ate most nights at the Paradise restaurant which is located at the
Dolphin Cove where all the beautiful bougainvillea is. The dinners were delicious, very reasonable
and the view from up high was fantastic!

We did go over to the Commercial Store and went in to Manzanillo Central.  We took a day trip
to Colima/Comala and visited the Flea Market at Miramar Beach. The whole area is wonderful
and the Mexican people soooo friendly. We think Puerto Las Hadas is the best location by far.
I felt like I was in Italy or Greece. We just loved the architecture built in to the hillside.
Being Easter, it was practically all Mexicans, but, we didn't mind and  it didn't seem crowded to
us and we enjoyed our stay so much. We hope to go back and stay in your place again sometime. 
I did water your plants even though they looked healthy. The studio is perfect! 
Thank you again for the use of your condo. Manzanillo is the best place we have been to
so far in Mexico.

Adios,

Hi Astrid,

We are having a lovely time in Manzanillo. The weather has been perfect and we are very pleased
with the accommodations. I am especially happy with your CD collection. Thanks for checking in
with us. We're having a great vacation away from our still rainy and cold Pacific Northwest.
Thanks again for the little condo with the big view!

Sending you sunshine,
Mary and Bob Larsen, WA - USA

We have really enjoyed our time in Mexico and your condo was the perfect place to be. It really
has a beautiful view with all the palms and the white buildings and bright pink bougenvillia. We
enjoyed the weddings and the fireworks as well. Our son and his girlfriend really enjoyed their
time here. We snorkelled, and went everywhere in both bays and to Barra Navidad for a day on
the bus. Jeremy's girlfriend had a lot of fun shopping, and Jeremy had a lot of beach time and
trying out the mexican beer once in a while. So, we really enjoyed our time here and can go home
ready to get back to work. Brian and I went on an agriculture tour and also saw Cuyutlan, Colima
and part way up the volcano. We also decided to take a portion of our funds and give it out as a tithe.
So we had a lot of fun blessing some of the people who struggle to survive daily life here. It is a lot
of fun to watch their faces light up and to appreciate a little extra to spend. We tried very hard to take
good care of your beautiful little place and enjoyed your deck very much. The dining room bed was
actually very comfortable, and reminded us of our travel van. We also appreciated the internet... especially
with our family needing to keep in touch. So, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful little place.
We look forward to meeting you in the future, sometime. Bye for now.

Thank you very much for the use of your apartment! It is very pleasant and stays nice and cool in the
heat of the day. We loved the local beach and managed to go to Colima for an explore of the museums and
the archeological sites and we also headed up the coast to Melaque. Being English I had to buy you a kettle
so we could make tea - a present for the apartment. Sally managed to cook on the elements just fine and
the local supermarket was excellent. I managed to get four rounds of golf in so that was a treat. Having
the hotel next door is (on the whole) great. The beach and the buffet breakfast were wonderful! After 30
years it was time that we went back to Mexico and we are thrilled that we did - your unit was ideal for us.
Thanks, Astrid.

We had a wonderful time in Manzanillo. Your condo is lovely and we really enjoyed our stay there.
You must find it difficult to have strangers using it....especially now with everything being so fresh and
new... but we took good care of it while we were there.
Thanks again for everything, Astrid.
Best wishes,
