December 2000 Judy Gorman and Henry Sheiner - Manhattan, NY The Best Part was ..... the feelings. The setting was beyond description. The food and hospitality, left nothing to be desired. The charm was warm and complete. The adventure was exciting and new. The weather was perfect. The escape was complete. The end came much too soon. The view was exotic. The stars were many and sparkled. The sleep was deep and restful. The rejuvenation happened. ........and then there was the two of you. The Best Part was ..... the feelings.
December 2000 David Pogel and Candia Geth - Bay Area You have created an amazing biosphere on this hillside. Your efforts are a positive and enriching force for the area! Thank you..
December 2000 Caroline and Danni, Boulder, CO Wow!! We didn't really know what to expect - what we found was magnificent. Thank you for a wonderful setting for our vacation. Your vision and hard work has clearly paid off - the casitas, the gardens and the food were just right for us! Besos y abrazos a Tonka, Guerra, & Salsa y esperemos a volver pronto. Muchisimas graciar por todo - sus amigos.
November 24, 2000 Susannah & Tim, San Francisco, CA. What a lovely, relaxing holiday! Exactly what we had in mind! Casa Terra Cotta has such a wonderful, peaceful vibe. The view from our casita is spectacular, the flowers and palms accent the blue horizon of the ocean, and perched on the hillside if feels so exclusive! Outstanding meals! Great tunes! And engaging conversation! We enjoyed every aspect of our vacation here!! Thanks for all the good local tips and insight Robert and Sharon. Cheers.
October 16, 2000 MISSEY DONNELLY, SHANNON DONNELLY & DUSTIN CURTIS What a great find on the Internet! We'll remember the early mornings on the patio watching the sun come up over the water........awesome.
September 10th, 2000 PATRICK AND DEBBIE - San Clement, CA., USA Every time someone comes and says they need a place for 1 or 2 nights, you know you must be saying Yeah Right!!! You can't stay just 2 nights, its not possible. Our place is beautiful and completely relaxing. Waking up to the ocean view at our feet was rivaled only by your delicious cooking. Your B & B is truly relaxing. Both of you made us feel so welcome and the surf and sun made us truly happy. Repeat customer all the way!! Thank you so much for making our honeymoon so enjoyable and fun.
September 10, 2000 SARA CHAPMAN & MIKE BAGESSE - Tucson, AZ., USA WOW! What beautiful place to spend a vacation, learn about local customs, get the skinny on all the sights and beaches, and eat the best breakfast anywhere in CABO. All the amenities of home. We are so impressed by the landscape and engineering, it is no wonder Casa Terra Cotta is as popular as they say. We want to come back here always when traveling on the tip of the BAJA, especially during Hurricane Season. We hope you continue to build on your dreams and continue to always have that vitality that has truly made our trip special and memorable.
August 31, 2000 TAKA AND KAORI -Tokyo, Japan We had a great time eating, relaxing and surfing while we stayed at your place. Thank you for your hospitality. This trip is the first time for us, we like BAJA! So we'll be back in a few years.
August 28, 2000 DEENA FEINBERG & MALIN STENBORG - New York, USA So, we managed to spend 15 days here. We decided to stay in San Jose and enjoy these surroundings. This place has been such a blessing for me at a time I really needed the beautiful spot you have created here on the hill overlooking the Sea of Cortez. I want to thank you for your hospitality, conversation and the amazing place you created. You can be sure that I (Malin) will recommend your place to all of my friends. I would not want them to miss your paradise.
August 24th, 2000 JAMIL & SUSANNE HATIZ - Santa Fe,New Mex. USA We are just finishing our honeymoon week today. The week before the wedding, the wedding and the first part of the trip here was such a whirl wind of stress and joy. I still have not digested it yet. Spending our last 3 days and 2 nights here - we finally felt relaxed - at home - really. The sign was no lie - we had arrived. Thank you for expressing such a sweet dream for others to share in.
August 20, 2000 ERICA & AARON - Santa Cruz, CA., USA From the minute we arrived at the Casa and Sharon welcoming us with, "You made it!" It felt like coming home. The relaxing, green, friendly atmosphere is one we will never forget. We were lucky enough for 'Salsa' to bring us a Chipmunk and other creative gifts through out our visit. Whether it be the great breakfast, relaxing in the hammock with the beautiful Sea of Cortez view or simply reading and resting in the Casita, every minute here was one we enjoyed. Thank you guys both (and Salsa) for all the helpful tips and for making our BAJA visit an unforgettable experience. We hope to make it back to the swimming pool!
August 17, 2000 JANELLE & JON - Sidney, AUSTRALIA This is a lovely relaxing place, and your way of managing it is just 'spot-on'. Lovely to meet you and hope to come back one day.
August 14, 2000 JEFF HOHLBEIN - San Diego, CA. - USA I feel very lucky to have found this place. It is difficult to imagine a better place to stay in Los Cabos. You have something very special here and I would recommend the experience to anyone looking for a unique stay in a beautiful atmosphere. Walking to the surf break early in the morning, returning to a hearty gourmet meal, your company and local knowledge, has been quite an experience. This place makes me feel great.. I loved the time I spent here. Thank you so much for everything. I wish you continued success and joy.
July 2000 NOEL MICHAELSEN - San Francisco, CA - USA Casa Terra Cotta x 3..My dearest Sharon and Roberto.remarkable reunion my dears! The laughter takes me from here to home and back again. Sublime care of the heart and body.so happy to call you 'amigos de corazon siempre'.
July 2000 KURT TREDE JR. - Carbondale, Col. - USA Thank you for making my Dad and I's Surf Trip, one of the few to remember. Your place is definitely more laid back and fun in the coolest ways that make a great trip more enjoyable. Your place is by far the best. Not the best by how many pools it has or all you can eat buffet but the best in ways to relax you. Sharon's breakfasts are awesome and put your day to the best start possible. I know now what is the so called "magic of Casa Terra Cotta" and that is the two blessed people who make it. Thanks!!
July 15, 2000 MICAH PETERS - Salt Lake City, Utah - USA "I can resist anything accept Sharons cooking" (Oscar Wilde). After transcending the peoples and continents of the World, I've found a new home @ Casa Terra Cotta. The humor, humanity and unmitigated sense of peace has been almost over-stimulating. The lurking jaws of society and normalcy missed Robert's flowered Gates of Eden. I came in poverty of peace. I left in perfect solitude. I will return with a smile.
July 13, 2000 KELLIE HARDICK - USA I know you hear it all the time, but I would be remiss if I did not write and tell you what a wonderful stay I had at your most lovely Bed and Breakfast. My only regret is not having the opportunity to permanently sing your praises in your guest book. The setting you selected to build on is fantastic and what you have done with it - oh - it is truly a magic place. Everything from the largest tree to the smallest shell seems perfectly placed. I was particularly fond of the whale rib placed on the outer curve of the steps to the casita in which I stayed. The energy you have invested and infused into this setting engenders peace and joy - both of which the two of you embody. The day after my return, I was able to load your website and take a tour. Now I will be able to transport myself back anytime. Closing my eyes, I can hear your gardener watering the grounds as I did each morning.smell the flowers and salt air as I did from the hammock I spent many hours lounging in. I believe I'd like to (favorably, of course) incorporate Casa Terra Cotta - at least by description - into one of my stories sometime with your permission. Thank you for creating and welcoming others into such a special place. It would be my privilege to someday return.
June 2000 PRU JEFFRIES - Sydney, Australia Thankyou so much for being so clever to have a home and a Bed and Breakfast above "Zippers"!!! Wonderful accommodations, quiet and all with the flavor of Mexico. I've stayed in many B & B's around the world and yours is definitely the BEST I have ever had the good fortune to encounter! Thanks for your happy great stories and wonderful cooking - Yummy Breakfasts! Good Luck with everything!
June 21, 2000 WARNER & MAYRA - Los Angeles, CA - USA The less-than-sunny weather granted us the opportunity NOT to feel guilty enjoying our very peaceful casita. The hammock afforded us hours of physical relaxation and comfort as we delved into hours of philosophical discussion. The sense of serenity experienced while spending time in our room with the natural light that came through the open-air window and slatted louvered doors was more than I could have wished for..truly! As I said to your Robert.the web page made me feel confident to take a chance, but what awaited us was much more. The love you two have put into your B & B shows. It is quite apparent that after years of living you two have combined your talents in cooking, gardening and pleasant conversational skills to make anyone's stay a memorable one. I have absolutely now doubt that in a few short months we will have to be planning and booking our stay at the Terra Cotta at least 6 months in advance. It is without a doubt one of the most relaxing vacations I have taken in my lifetime. I look forward to seeing you both again and at that time we will philosophize a little more.
June 7, 2000 STACEY ATENCIO & MARGIE BUTCH - Colorado, USA Thankyou so much for sharing your wonderful home with us. You have created such a beautiful, serene oasis here, and we loved it!!! Every touch is beautiful and special. When I saw the pictures of Casa Terra Cotta on the Internet, I knew it was where we wanted to stay - and when we arrived it was more beautiful than we pictured. Thankyou for your warm generous hospitality and delicious breakfasts!! We will recommend Casa Terra Cotta to all of our friends visiting Cabo! It was such a pleasure meeting you both. You made it very special and memorable. Muchas Gracias!!
MAY 2000 BRUCE AND DEEDEE HOLSER -St. Louis, Missouri, USA Our Stay could not have been more delightful. Sharon - your food and hospitality are such wonderful expressions of nurturing and love. Thank you so much. Robert, your generous sprit and willingness to share it with your guests was so appreciated. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed everything. Amiga.. I will be emailing you that recipe for green chile cheesecake with papaya salsa. Thanks again.
May 2, 2000 Pam, Larry and Joe - Aspen, CO - USA Hello not goodbye to our new friends, Robert and Sharon. This has been so perfect for Larry and I. I don't want to leave but we are going camping for a few days. I am sure I will miss your cooking and conversations so much that I will be back in a couple of days. So this again, is not good bye but hello to 2 people I call friends. See you soon.
April 17, 2000 BILLY AND PATTI - Los Angeles, CA - USA We have found a beautiful little sanctuary on the cliff, and although we have somewhere else to stay (At Billy's), our experience here has been unforgettable! Thank you so much for your generosity, attentiveness, kindness and most of all your lore! You are two beautiful souls and bring smiles to every guest you meet. We hope to have the opportunity to give back what you have shared with us. You have been very welcoming and encouraging in regards to our new life here in Baja. Thank you for the advice and honesty.
April 4, 2000 ANN AND DAVID - Anchorage, Alaska - USA Thanks so much!! We had a lovely time - soooo relaxing here! We loved watching the whales from the luxury of our bed! Hopefully we will return to your lovely casitas!
March 2000 ERIC & LINDSEY KINNARD - Bloomington, Indiana, USA Staying with you has created the most wonderful Honeymoon experience! We will cherish these memories forever and can't wait to come back. (maybe I can convince Eric to come for our first anniversary) You should be very proud of yourselves for the job you have done on the place, as well as the fact that you truly know how to treat guests. That is a rarity these days. Enjoy Life, enjoy each other and enjoy all the interesting people you have yet to meet!
February 21,2000 LINDA AND BOB - Toronto, ONT. CANADA 'The Host & Hostess with the most!!' Thanks for your assistance & suggestions.always ready with good ideas to make our vacation even more enjoyable. We shall return (with the Christie's). PURA VIDA.
February 2000 MARG, MURRAY AND ELIZABETH HENDREN - West Vancouver, B.C. CANADA What a place! We admire your creativity and hospitality. To create a place like this from the desert takes vision and perseverance. We really enjoyed our stay. We particularly appreciate your helping Elizabeth with her diet. Also your recommendations on restaurants and beaches were very helpful. The mornings on the patio were wonderful. The fish and whales compete for attention with all the tropical birds and flowers. We will be back.
February 2000 ROBERT AND ELEANORE GOLDMAN Sharon - you are a joy to be with.you just sparkle & your laughter is contagious. Robert - I truly admire your courage & sense of adventure, respect for land and people. Sharon & Robert - You are a great team! Thank you so much for the wonderful food, cozy casita & your gracious warmth & hospitality. We hope to come back soon! Best to you in the coming year. Truly a Cosmic B & B - not just a place to stay, but a place to expand.
February 2000 GROVER AND CHERYL COE - San Francisco, CA., USA Once again, we're having trouble leaving Casa Terra Cotta. Our visit felt like a 'coming home'. We love your warm, loving vibes and generous hospitality - hard to beat. We will be back next year. You' re the best! Just wanted to let you know we had a wonderful time in 'Cabo' thanks to your hospitality. After staying in La Paz at the '...' Bed and breakfast (we never once met the host and hostess!) we came to the realization that you are the BEST!
February 2000 NELSON AND JUDE - Fort Collins, CO., USA Thanks so much for our too brief stay here. It was a fabulous into to BAJA. As you know, we are now heading to the Hotel .... but don't be surprised if you see us show up for breakfast! We identified 14 species of birds in just a couple of hours in your garden! We are just beginning birders! We saw twice that many, but could not identify quickly. I'm sure you have at least 100 species in your yard. Thanks for giving the birds a home.
February 2000 BOB AND SHERI - Columbus, OHIO, USA What a lovely place. Best night's rest we've had in a month! Ocean and stars galore.beautiful flora and many birds. Loved hiking the 'dried river beds' behind the property (5-1/2 hours!) The best breakfast we have ever enjoyed at a B & B! We'll be back soon as possible.
January 2000 ANTON AND ELAINE - London, ENGLAND 'The hosts with the most' I am really sad to be writing in your book as it means we are leaving. However, as they say in Ireland 'sure, you have to leave to have been here in the first place'! We have had such a fabulous stay here & time really has stood still. Great views, beautiful Casitas & mammoth tasty breakfasts, all beaten of course, by the excellent company. (If we have our B & B dream, we have a lot to live up to.)
