| This review is LONG overdue, but I just wanted to thank Glen and Debra for a fantastic stay at their home. We came across this beautiful bed & breakfast late one night and I am SO glad that we did!! The house was amazing, the location is great, and you could not ask for better hosts! Glen and Debra truly make you feel like you are a guest in their home and they could not do enough to make our stay comfortable. We have been looking at property ourselves and Glen even took the time one afternoon to show us around the town to look at lots and houses. Thank you again for a fantastic stay and going above and beyond what we could have ever expected! I cannot recommend the Casa de los Pelicanos enough! |

Unsere Erwartungen wurden weit übertroffen- Debra und Glen sind wunderbare Menschen mit viel Herz.
Unsere Familie, das sind Andreas und Vroni, Maria, Robert und Claudia und unser Hund Molly, waren dort für
eine Woche Gäste und verlängerten auf 11 Tage, weil es uns so wunderbar gefallen hat.
Wir wurden sehr familiär empfangen. Sie haben uns viel erzählt über die Gegend von Rincon de Guayabitos, gaben uns Tipps für Ausflüge und Restaurants.
Wir werden Debra und Glen auf jeden Fall wieder besuchen und ihren Kaffee geniessen.
Vielen Dank V+A aus Deutschland |

| Glen and Debra are very hospitable and friendly. We enjoyed visiting with them in the morning at their outdoor eating area, drinking our coffee, while Debra prepared her delicious breakfasts and Glen squeezed fresh orange juice. Since Glen gave us a tour of the area, it was easy to find our way along the streets or the beach to Guaybitos and La Penita for shopping and eating. It was fun to meet other guests at the B&B, but it would be a perfect location for a group of friends or family. We're looking forward to a return visit to Glen and Debra's. |

FANTASTIC! Beautiful beach, great breakfasts, clean comfortable rooms, and wonderful hosts. Glen and Debra go out of their way to make sure that you have a marvelous holiday. They are very helpful in recommending restaurants, ordering taxis, and giving information about special activities. Most places are within walking distance. You meet Glen and Debra and they soon become good friends. We were staying for 7 days and we were having such a good time we extended our stay to 11 days. You won’t be disappointed. Casa de Los Pelicanos is a great place to stay while you visit the beautiful area of Rincon de Guayabitos.

| Our holiday with Glen & Debra at Casa De Los Pelicanos left us with that warm fuzzy feeling inside that we had a “Home away from Home” with friends that are “like family”. It just doesn’t get better than this! With Debra’s amazing breakfasts and Glen’s grand introduction tour of shops and sights, you will settle into the surroundings quicker than any other place you have visited. The sunsets were spectacular on as lovely a beach as you will find anywhere. There is always as much to do (or not do) as suits you. We can’t wait to get back for a second helping of “the perfect holiday”! Thank you Glen & Debra, for everything! Alex & Geri, North Saanich (Victoria) B.C. |

| What can we say that hasn't already been said!!! Our stay at Casa de los Pelicanos was absolutely wonderful for all the reasons posted in the preceding comments. We can't wait to return and hope it's sooner rather than later! Great friends, great accomodations, great food, and just the right touch of Mexico. Hasta luego... |

Glen & Debra have that special knack to run a Bed &
Breakfast -- attentive but not intrusive. My sisters
and I visited the area for the first time to see our
father and his wife where they've chosen to spend
the winter for many years. Casa de los Pelicanos
felt like a home of good friends extending their
hospitality to our family. The location was perfect
with the quieter part of the beautiful sandy beach
close to the gate. The breakfasts were fresh,
delicious and satisfying. Every amenity we desired
was close at hand. Thank you for making our stay
so comfortable and memorable. |

WE HAVE STAYED TWICE WITHIN 7 MONTHS AND BOTH STAYS WERE EXCELLANT. THE COMMENTS THAT I HAVE READ HERE HAVE NOT OVERSTATED THE PROPERTY AND ITS AMENITIES. WE ACTUALLY BOOKED THE SITE ORIGINALLY FOR A WEDDING AND DEB AND GLENN HELPED US SO MUCH WITH ORGANIZATION, TIMING AND MATERIALS THAT THE CELEBRATION AND SERVICE WAS BEYOND OUR WILDEST EXPECTATIONS (INCLUDING THE WEDDING DINNER AND LIVE MUSIC). ONCE YOU ARE THERE YOU DO NOT NEED A CAR. AN EASY TAXI RIDE FROM PUERTO VALLARTA. GREAT FOOD, RELAXING ATMOSPHERE, INCREDIBLE HOSTS AND NO ONE TRYING TO SELL YOU A TIME SHARE.

Larry and I rang the bell and Glen came to answer, We later met Debra and their dog "Robbie" and instantly felt that we were among friends. They made fine recommendations regarding restaurants etc, and Glen took us on a tour of the whole area.
The breakfasts ranged fom wonderful peach juice, yogurt and granola to traditional Mexican dishes.
The sun shone every day in paradise and the beautiful beach was a few steps away.
Our room was tastefully decorated in a jungle theme. We were able to watch the news on CNN and enjoyed comfort and charming service at every turn.
We will reccommend this b and b and sincerely hope to ring that bell once again,

| Our good friends brought us to Casa De Los Pelicanos after discovering it themselves on a previous trip. We have been back several times and wouldn't stay anywhere else. Not only is the location perfect but Glen and Debra are so warm, friendly and helpful you will soon feel like family. We especially love Debra's wonderful home cooked breakfasts. It is always hard to leave. |

STAY HERE - YOU WILL LOVE IT! All of the great comments you've been reading about Glen and Debra and their beautiful Casa de Los Pelicanos are true. My husband and I found them two years ago, completely at random on the internet, and have returned 6 times since then with as many friends and family as we could muster. Everyone loves it and it's become our home away from home. We wouldn't consider staying anywhere else. Ever. So, here's a good tip: don't miss breakfast! Glen's specialty is fresh squeezed orange juice and Debra prepares a stunning array of dishes that reflect everything from a Mexican twist to a traditional Mexican breakfast. All are wonderful and more than you can eat. Couple that with a beautiful home, a lovely table and great music and you are on your way for the day. Almost everything Guayabitos and La Penita have to offer are within walking distance, with the beautiful beach practically at the door, and Glen will help you make arrangements for anything you want to see or do for miles and miles around. It is a wonderful place to stay, and my husband and I, our family and friends recommend it with complete confidence. Please give them a call and make your reservations. Everyone on this review list thinks you'll be glad you did!

| My wife, three daughters, son-in-law and a boyfriend stayed at the B&B over this past week. Every winter we go to a different warm place (Minnesota winters can get long). We have never gone back to the same place twice; too many places we want to see. We had a family vote on the last night and we are making an exception. We will return to the B&B. There are many reasons for this, including the private pool, private bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, a week of breadfasts second to none, the ocean is just steps away, the view of the ocean from the lookout tower is wonderful, the B&B is super clean, the privacy of the B&B, the cost of food in the town is extremely cheap, and, equally important to all of the above is the hospitality of Glen and Debra. They went out of their way to be sure our stay was peaceful, safe and fun. After just one week they felt like family. If you are thinking about staying at this B&B, feel free to email me. I can give you some ideas and answer any questions you have, from things to do to transportation. I can tell you one thing for sure. . .you won't be disappointed. I hope to hear from you. |

| Upon planning a trip on short notice and not being able to stay where we normally have stayed, we came across Glen & Deb's place and what a treat this became. Not only was this a great place to stay, nice, small, great location, super clean, super fun, but the hosts Glen and Debra acted like familiar family the entire time we were there. Simply said, we will be staying here anytime we are in Guayabitos, as this is simply the best thing going down there. Enjoy.... |

A wonderful experience! We were very fortunate to spend 12 days at this delightful B & B. Glenn & Debra are hospitality personified! Warm, welcoming, informative and fun. The breakfasts were excellent.(I even came home with a recipe!) Their home is very well designed - allowing everyone the privacy they choose, and so very close to the beach. We are excited to recommend la Casa de los Pelicanos to anyone travelling to the area. Looking forward to a return visit soon - thank you for sharing your home with us. Pats to Robbie and Tino.

| Had a wonderful, relaxing 16 days in Mexico. Much of it due to the great hospitality of Glen & Debra. Their home is beautiful, clean and comfortable. They go out of their way to accommodate their guests. They are very knowledgeable about Mexico's history and culture and it's obvious they are well known and respected withing the community. They gave us the advice and suggestions we needed as firt timers there. We can't wait to return. And Debra's breakfasts should be served in the finest restaurants! |

| We were looking for a Mexican town with swimmable waters, good food, and accomodations that were both quiet/peaceful and authentica. Our stay in Rincon and particularly with Glen and Debra at their beautiful traditional casa del mar (Pelicanos) was all that we had imagined. Thank you for the welcome and ongoing camraderie, the perfect hospitality, sumptious breakfasts and knowledgeable leads on ways to enjoy the area...we left feeling that we had really relaxed, felt like we had seen and enjoyed Mexico and that we will return soon. Glen and Debra...your dream of having such a place is our treat...thanks for sharing your "rincon" of heaven/Guayabitos...Anne and Jim |

WOW!!!! We have traveled to many destinations throughout Mexico & Guyabitos will now be on our list of future stops!
Our stay at Glen & Debra's house started with the best breakfast we have had in a long time, along with the most personable tour of the local town and surrounding area! What great hospitality both Glen & Debra have! Oh, and did I mention the views? FANTASTIC!
The accomodations were just perfect! Loved the beach access as well as pool availability...oh, and the massages? Tell Maria we said THANK YOU & MUCH NEEDED!
You guys have outdone yourselves with this adventure! We will be recommending your B&B to all we know.
Can't wait to see the painted murals the next time we arrive---Glen, should we give you a date deadline???
Thanks for making our vacation one to remember!

| We had the loveliest stay at Debra and Glen's beautiful home. We were treated like family and felt at home. The house is very beautiful and the ambience is very peaceful and inviting. Glen shared great knowledge of nearby beaches that are very little known and after Christmas this is a big plus! We cannot wait to return. |

| We have stayed in many places in Mexico, and our stay with Glen and Debra was one of our most enjoyable. Our hosts were more like family and the lack of formality provided us with a relaxing week of comforts and excellent breakfasts. Our returns to Guayabitos will, hopefully, be at La Casa de los Pelicanos. |

The Casa De Los Pelicanos is a beautifully appointed oasis surrounded by the charm of "Old Mexico." The casa is cleverly designed and beautiful in appearance. Glen & Debbie are the perfect hosts and have the best food in town. Located in a quiet neighborhood just a few steps from the beach, you will find restaurants and shopping are within easy walking distance. Taxis are inexpensive and locals are exceedingly friendly.
You can become so comfortable here that you may not want to leave. Highly recommended! |

| With Debra and Glen we felt like honored guests and family at the same times. The house is beautifully appointed and comfortable. Breakfast was awesome and a great way to start the day. Glen is a fun tour guide and we went to many of the favorite restaurants. We plan on coming back to this wonderful beach setting w/ friends to explore more, for serious relaxing and more whale wathing. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Debra and Glen! |

| Our stay in Rincon de Guayabitos was wonderful in huge measure to our stay at Casa de Pelicanos. Debra and Glenn were delightful and thoughtful hosts and gave us a sense of the area and specific places to visit and eat. The Breakfasts at Casa de Pelicanos were fresh and aabsolutely delicious each morning of our six day stay. Debra is a great cook. The place itself is beautiful with lots of individual spots to enjoy for reading or enjoying the view. We highly reccommed this place for the perfect vacation. |

| Our wonderful host and hostess, Glen and Debra, provided us with a fabulous overview of the area of Rincon de Guayabitas, and with next door (La Pinetas) friends as well, we did a lot in two days. The casa is very relaxing with lots of private spaces to go read, sun or nap if you want to, and with the central meeting area by the pool, you can make new friends, catch some rays and visit with Glen and Debra all at the same time. Wonderful people, area and weather. I am thrilled to have been able to come here. Viva la Mexico! Sally S. |

| We were delighted to find this bed and breakfast at the last minute. Our hosts felt like old friends and the breakfast was perfect. Fresh squeezed orange juice on the veranda along with french toast, eggs, and a huge pile of fresh fruit. I highly recommend this lovely retreat. I did yoga early in the morning on the highest terrace with the sun shining through the trees. The suites are very homey and the decor is great. Thanks Glen and Debra for a great visit. We hope to meet again. Deb,Sid, Andy and Xander |

| Casa do los Pelicanos is upscale, clean, and friendly. Rooms and home are well-appointed and decorated with taste. The food was delicious. The town and lovely beach is truly a Mexican experience not far from the crowds in Puerto Vallarta. Hosts Glen and Debra are the stars of this show--informative, interesting, and delightful people.
