Luke. Thank you for your kind review and we are so pleased that all the family had a blast and enjoyed themselves at casa dorado. Certainly most welcome back and if ever down this way again. I'll do my best to ensure a shark is landed next time deep sea fishing ! Great experience..

Matt. Thank you for your 5 star review. Much appreciated after a wonderful time hosting your family. So pleased all had a lovely family vacation. Whilst good and acted on your constructive comments. Very welcome back. All the best, Larry

Erika. Whilst thanking you for your review. As we like to learn from all guests so as to continually improve.  As previously correctly responded to Kallie the member of your group with 11 U.S. Airbnb's. Who contacted me after departure. We immediately pulled out of our kitchen over 30 pots n pans ( two 3 x sets still in their boxes ) with associated utensils including longer ones for the BBQ and we promptly purchased an even larger coffee maker to complement the two already in the kitchen. Quite bizarre considering members of your group complemented early each morning our coffee makers as well as our kind provision of coffee, sweetners and filters for guests to enjoy. As well as corecting the wrongly stated lack of a casa laundry having shown you personally our full casa laundry, washer and tumble dryer.  Offering as I do to all guests to personally provide laundry service, if desired, so that our guests can enjoy our beachfront facilities together rather than be sat in the laundry whilst on vacation. Nonetheless we are glad you all enjoyed casa dorado and I shall certainly be emphasising more our facilities to guests in the future. As well as continuing to seek any problems promptly from guests so they are addressed immediately. Kind regards, Larry

Brian thank you for your review. Which on receiving we immediately convened a walk thru and investigation with our deep clean team used prior every guest booking. Having received only positives from guests and yourself after enquiring daily if all was good at casa dorado. Therefore a subsequent low cleaning review we take very seriously. Whilst we aim to learn from all and continuously improve. We act promptly to anything less than high standards. Although staff and hosts are still confident in our provision of a comprehensively fitted out beachfront Spanish colonial style casa in our National marine park. Well maintained and clean. Perhaps just not any shiny plastic cladding ? Nonetheless it was a pleasure to host you all and we're so pleased your family and yourself had a wonderful time at casa dorado. Kind regards and most welcome back, Larry

Garrett. Thank you for the kind review and for all being such nice guests. Who really seemed to appreciate our beach front casa, gardens and pool. National park setting. Every down this way again. Please look us up. As all most welcome. Enjoy yourselves, Larry

As we like to learn from all guests stays. I shall simply politely reiterate that your group were shown and informed on arrival when walking you thru the casa and onto the beach, of Tamarindo water taxis times and the 5 mins beach walk to them and 5 mins to Palm beach restaurants/bars/shops. As well as thru pre arrival messages. I also offered to assist n advise thru out your stay. As I do and assist all guests, but was refuted. At no time were you requested to pay for electric vehicle charging. Simply asked to read our new listing in line with Airbnb advice re electric vehicles and future bookings, post yourselves. Also thru Airbnb, being over 7 days stay we offered to provide our clean team for a mid stay cleaning service, fresh bedding and towels. As we had carried out pre arrival. But again denied. All though towels were left out to laundry every day. Trash was removed on each request by myself and twice I set up our bbq for you but you never returned until late. On a personal note. I am totally honest and tranparent and really enjoy hosting and assisting guests without experiencing your booking group behaviour and <br/>the vile condition my home was left in. Hang your heads in shame !

Charita. Thank you for a lovely review of your time at casa dorado. Which is so important to us and good for staff as well as potential guests. All most welcome back anytime. Kind regards. Larry

Jeff. Thank you for your comments which are certainly being addressed. As even though purchased additional new bedding and towels before I left for London surgery, start summer. I shall also on return, end August. Immediately restock thru out the casa with spares. As we want the best for guests. Also pleased to hear you all enjoyed beachfront casa dorado. All the best., Larry

Caitlin. Thank you very much for your review and your constructive recommendations. Which we shall certainly action and implement with the aim of improving. So that lovely families such as your own can enjoy even more our beachfront casa dorado. Thank you also for letting me know Mikey was so helpful and assisted your wonderful stay in my absence. Much appreciated. Kind regards, Larry

Blake. Thank you for your feedback. Which is very important to us to learn from and also for the two additional boogieboards left for our collection/guests use. We have been in a dillema before regarding the twin beds being in downstairs or upstairs bedrooms for kids But as we host many 3 generational families. Grandparents normally want the one half upstairs, sea front balcony, left as a Queen bedroom, so the twin beds stay downstairs. ( The other balcony half is the master king bedroom. ) Although we shall think again as we aim to please all guests, especially moms. Thank you all again. Kind regards, Larry

Michelle. Thank you for your review. As we always like to hear guest feedback. So as to learn and continuously improve. Perhaps the kitchen salt and peppers condiments need replenishing. As certainly were there with a larger bag of salt n pepper on the side shelve facing the sink and cooking oil adjacent the cooker but we shall replenish from stock in the rear apartment kitchen. As well as all bathroom towels were bought new in May and the previous placed in the cupboard above the TV along with the beachtowels. If deemed good for outside beach n pool use only. The principal bedroom faucets are working well but we have lubricated for easier movement. Whilst thanking you for your comments. Pity these were not brought to our attention during your stay. Especially being informed an additional maids day clean was provided gratis during your stay. As all certainly would have been actioned immediately. Still we are really glad you all enjoyed your beachfront stay with us. As guests enjoyment is very imprortant to us. Whilst wishing you well. Kind regards, Larry

Sara. Thank you for your comments Sara. As we always wish to learn and continuously improve and whilst in London for surgery during your stay.  I have spoken to staff on all matters and walked thru video. The grill is a traditional BBQ grill and good to use but guests need to purchase their charcoal. It is not gas nor electric run. Being beach front in a National marine park we can get a few smaller land crabs enter any ground floor open doors during their annual breed when they come down from the interior to the coast ( They are land crabs ) But harmless and avoid humans. Nonetheless we are pleased you all enjoyed your stay with us. Kind regards, Larry

Chad. As discussed prior departing. I am so glad you and family all enjoyed their stay with us. Thank you for the 5 stars review. Although I note we dropped a point . So if there is anything we can learn from, it would be good to know. As we wish to continuously improve and provide a 5 star casa and service for all guests.

Thank you Christian foryour kind words. As nice, lovely guests and hopefully if down this way again. We would love to host you all. As most welcome.
