Thank you for all your help arranging my trip back to Bucerias. The condo could not have been any better! It was wonderful! The weather was great everyday and it was a rude awakening getting off the plane in Seattle to pouring rain and cold, the first time I actually wore shoes in a week!
Bucerias and the condo were all that I was hoping it would be and more. It was a very relaxing week, laying by the pool reading or walking the town exploring. The most difficult decision was deciding where to dine out that night.
Everyone we met was so nice and helpful and the neighbors gave us some great suggestions on places to eat which took us out of our comfort zone a bit, but it was well worth it.
I am looking forward to my next trip and already starting to make plans. So don't be surprised if you hear from me again. Thanks again for all your help, Marilyn. I really appreciate it.

We have had a wonderful stay at Condo Oceana and we all agree it is the best place we have ever stayed!
We have never been to Bucerias before so it was all new. The people are extraordinary and we felt welcome and safe on the bus onto Puerto Vallarta and to La Cruz where we went to visit Michelle at her gift shop. We went on an ATV tour, Tequila tour, and the San Sebastion tour--but not all in one day!!
Michelle was very helpful and this was the most informed on any trip we have ever taken. I want to thank you for all the helpful hints. Our favorite place to eat was “Café Depot” (internet cafe)– right across the street!!
We had a great time and I would recommend Condo Oceana to anyone as it is such a nice place to feel at home.

We really enjoyed our stay at Condo Oceana and want to thank you so much for such a great place. Michelle was so thoughtful to stock up with some basic food and beverage items.
It has been almost 20 years since our last trip to Bucerias and the town has grown and offers so many more choices, especially in restaurants. You can't get a bad meal in Bucerias!
It was an experience for Deanna to go shopping with me as I cooked a few dinners in the condo. The satellite TV was great as we could watch the Olympics and see some news from home.
Deanna went horseback riding every second day and we took some side trips but mostly spent time at the beach and pool. Deanna had her hair braided and as I waited, a young man helped me speak Spanish. We took the bus into Port Vallarta to go shopping for shoes and we took many pictures--many of the beautiful sun sets!
We really enjoyed our week at Condo Oceana with lots of sun time and reading. Thank you so much for the effort you have put into making this a true "home away from home".

Today we are on our way home after two wonderful weeks at Condo Oceana. We were greeted by Michelle and had the opportunity of meeting Sandy our host/owner, who extended her hospitality and made us feel very welcomed.
During the past two weeks we’ve enjoyed the beach and surf, visited La Cruz and Michelle’s Galleria – went on the bus to Sayulita, walked from Condo Oceana to Paradise Village (who would know the beach can be walked for 3 hours!!) We’ve had a couple of trips into Puerto Vallarta using the local buses which have proven very easy. We have always felt very comfortable and relaxed in Bucerias.
Thank you for the welcome breakfast found in the fridge. This was much appreciated, as was Marilyn’s handbook with restaurant suggestions

I guess I’ve always been a dreamer, but never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined a more simpatico place to be. I never met a menu I didn’t like, I never saw the moon so bright and I really don’t want to go home. Thank you for sharing Condo Oceana with us.
It was a luxury to have time to watch a block long line of ants carry leaves larger than themselves to a secret place below a basura can. It was a thrill to daily check out the huge succulent bloom, to see if it had opened yet. It was refreshing to have chickens arouse each new day. It was wonderful in so many ways to be reminded that life is great and is there for the taking.
Gracias

My friend and I came to Mexico for two weeks to celebrate my new job and her birthday. As Condo Oceana was unavailable the first week of our stay we decided to stay at a luxury hotel in Nuevo Vallarta and transfer to the condo for the second week. What a pleasant surprise to find Condo Oceana more comfortable and having more amenities than our "luxury" hotel!
We spent our mornings sipping coffee and reading on the deck while gazing at the stunning view of the ocean. Our afternoons were spent soaking up the sun at the beautiful pool and each evening the guest handbook directed us to different local restaurants to get the feel and taste of the real Mexico. We are leaving feeling relaxed with memories of wonderful times and great food. Can’t wait to return.
Muchas Gracias!

The only time we’ve left this oh-so-comfy place is to get into the ocean or to go out for dinner--once at Dugarel’s, once at an unnamed street stall. The street stall gave us 4 great enchiladas and 2 sprites for 52 pesos, plus local flair and that slightly uncomfortable feeling that’s so hard to come by in the States. (It’s good to be out of your element from time to time.) Other than that, we’ve slept in to 10 or 11, had leisurely breakfasts of fruit and coffee, read like bulldozers, lounged in all the furniture, swam, watched the diving birds and stared at the ocean.
We have BIG plans for tomorrow--walking to La Cruz to visit Michelle and her Galleria and heading to Sayulita for a bit of surfing. I hope we’re up for it. This condo is terribly luxurious and leaving it for any length of time is risky because I’ve acclimated to its many comforts.

| Couldnt have asked for a nicer place to stay! Clean, all modern amenities, comfortable, and the perfect location. Favorite activities: enjoying some coffee (or many other beverages) and the breeze off the ocean on the deck or floating in the infinity pool under the hot sun. I mean really, can it get any better? I give this the highest recommendation to anyone looking for a vacation in Mexico. Thanks so much! |

What can we say about Condo Oceana! It is absolutely gorgeous with every amenity one could imagine! It's one of those rare times when the interior of the condo actually overwhelms the view!
We know your guests will be thrilled with their stay at Condo Oceana and we are proud to be your first visitors.
