See it all local at Coco Loco - Relax, unwind or turn it up Island Style

Published on Jul, 2024

There were 3 of us staying a total of 10 days. Lindsey and Jay helped us set up with 2 units the first few days then had us set up for the 2 bedroom for the last week. Plenty of comfort, space and relaxation. Jay provided us with several options on getting to the island well before we needed to travel so we could make the best choice for us. We ended up using an 8 passenger plane and a taxi from there to CoCo Loco. The instructions provided ahead of time made it super easy! The trip was exceptional and made even better by having Lindsey and Jay as our hosts.

What A Dream!!!

Published on Apr, 2024

Our stay at the Americus Garden Inn was an amazing highlight of our 3 wk trip to the Southeast. We had been looking for an interesting place to spend a few days between our bike tour from Charleston to Savannah and visiting friends in Atlanta. We couldn't have found a more wonderful place! Susan & Kim handle all aspects of the best Bed & Breakfast that we have ever visited. They made us feel special and so very comfortable in their beautiful antebellum home. Attention to detail was clear from the decor to the cleanliness to the availability of anything we might want or need. The three course breakfasts were delicious, freshly made from scratch to our dietary preferences. Susan is an amazing cook and an artist with the beautiful presentation of each dish. Our only regret is that we live so far away in Portland OR and we can only hope that we get another opportunity to stay with Susan & Kim in the future.

Great tour to Aparecida.

Published on Oct, 2023

There are not many reviews about tours to this religious place, even though Our Lady of Aparecida is the National Patron of Brazil. My husband and I chose this tour because of our time and language limitations. We were very happy because in a short time, our guide, Nelio, was able to show us all the important places throughout the basilica complex, and gave good explanations. Nelio was also very attentive and drove patiently throughout our trip.

Akama is a great hotel to stay in Kathmandu, Nepal

Published on Feb, 2023

Staying in Hotel Akama in Kathmandu, Nepal in early January 2023. Their staff especially Ms. Palpusa, Mr. Binod, Ms Sangrol & Ms. Bandana were very helpful, courteous, professional and went out of the way to help us.

ROC ARENAS DORADAS

Published on Dec, 2022

Another great trip to Roc Arenas Doradas in Varadero. Husband got to spend his 80th birthday there and what a wonderful job they did to make it really special. Of course we never have any complaints about our trips there. We are always treated so well and they totally spoil us. All the staff are great, whether its in the buffet, at reception, coffee bar, or any other place. We love it here. It's like a second home. And we will definitely be going back!
