This most interesting European guy-on-the-move only stayed here for a couple of weeks; he was very busy indeed! He had several family and visitors stop in here, but all were well behaved and quite nice folks! Alberto was/is an interesting guy, and we appreciate his nice words (in spanish!) concerning his stay with us!!! ((-:

Thank you so much Caren and Jean-Louis for this 5 star review. We feel the same way about you two; it was a pleasure to have you share our hacienda aka "little mini-resort" with us. We loved having you here and were sad when you all-of-a-sudden were gone. All the best to you two...COME BACK TO SEE US SOMETIME! Safe travels! ((-: Papa G., Mama K, our three girls, Richard, Ana, the dogs, the pool, plants, trampoline, swing set, BBQ, et al...we all miss you! xoxoxo

This couple from Chicago/Honduras were nothing but good, kind, considerate and generous! They are both "older than me" and were (are!) an inspiration for all of us - GREAT FOLKS! We'd love to host them again, because they were the PERFECT guests! It was so nice having them here, and....they LOVE(d) our dogs!!! ((-: Papa G. & Mama K.

This New York City family of SIX(!) were quite delightful and interesting. They stayed at Emma's Guest Cottage for only a short period of time, and were always very pleasant and easy to deal with, which was nice.

Mama Vanessa had her hands full (my wife and I have three young daughters, so it was fun to watch!), and Papa Alan was always cool, calm and collected. (I need to take lessons from him!).

By the way, we know their three very young children (including two boys!) were "well-behaved", because nothing was broken, and...all pets and plants were still alive when they left!!! ((-:

Anyway, THANK YOU SO MUCH for your kind words Alan and Vanessa. Of course, anytime in the future you'd like visit us again, you are always welcome here at Emma's Guest Cottage or Mae's Guest Suite!!! ((-:

This unique couple of guys "Big John and Little John" were quite the pair. It was pleasant having them stay here, but Big John was overweight and had a bad smoker's brochitis - a "hacking cough". This made the hottest month of the year (April) quite difficult for him - especially in the afternoon. We definitely gave them 5 Star Ritz type service, but I think the heat, sweating and coughing made the uncomfortable Big John demote us to only 4 Stars = ))-: Oh well! We do have a hot water shower; we just don't advise using it (nobody does) during the hottest month of April, etc.. The directions (and see map) to here are quite easy to follow; it's just that Big John drove a rental vehicle from the airport in Managua late at night, and arrived here in a very tired state - after having flown & traveled all day long - from Wisconsin, nonetheless!. The "rough road" has been fixed, but...the heavy rains at times changes the contour of the roads that are made mainly of dirt and stone.

It was a pleasure having this young Canadian couple stay here - with their two "ninos" (boys). Their kids "frolicked" with ours children and others, and it was a joy watching the dynamics unfold! We greatly appreciate their kind words, sentiments, and gratitude for our family, service-type orientation here. The entire family greatly enjoyed the swimming pool, terraced areas and multiple pets on our property - that's for sure!!! ((-:
