Dear Agnes and Jo,

What a wonderful time we had again at Villa Mango. We will never forget the beautiful New Years Eve table and the fun time jumping in the pool.

This is such a beautiful and peaceful place that has a special place in our hearts.

Love,

We hope to return.

All the best,

Dear Agnes and Joe,

After a lovely tour through Costa Rica, we spend our last day in Villa Mango.

We liked it very much and it was the best hotel we had during our holiday.

It was a friendly place and we hope we come back again.

Thanks for everything.

Greetings from Harry and Ankie - Germany

We rented the whole house four our party of 8 adults and 2 toddlers.

Everybody loved it!

Perhaps we'll try the B&B experience next time

and the "abuelos" will come alone.

We had a week of hot, cloudless weather. It was beautiful, but if you are here in August, enjoy the afternoons rainstorms!!

Villa Mango is indeed paradise!

The first thing one sees is the view over the pacific, but it gets even better when you meet your hosts, Agnes and Joe. Their warmth and kindness make Villa Mango a place you want to come back to again and again.

We will definitely tell our friends they must stay here.

Thank you for a lovely stay at Villa Mango, what a lovely view!

Let's hope the petition works and the canopy remains intact.

The breakfasts are the best in Costa Rica !

We enjoyed the others guests very much.

How lovely that people come and decided to stay longer !

Agnes and Joe,

You certainly go out of your way to make the Villa Mango a paradise. we find it hard to leave and will return for more of your warm hospitality.

After all the huge compliments other guests have written in this book, it's hard to come up with something original.

The fact that a lot of guests tend to stay at Villa Mango longer  than planned, probably is one of the largest compliments for you as a host couple.

And yes, we were one of those guests...

Came for 2 nights and eventually stayed 5.

Feeling sad to leave now and going to miss your care and interesting conversations.

We loved to be in the piece of paradise that

you guys have created here in Costa Rica.

Take care, we will meet again !

 

Love, Chantal and Menzo - Netherlands

Thank you Agnes and Joe for having us at your lovely house.

We enjoyed having somewhere so relaxing to return after

our adventures in the ocean. we enjoyed your company and

the company of the other guests and also Minette !

We had a lovely time and enjoyed watch the monkeys and other bugs.

Hopefully we can come back before too long.

Querida Agnes and Jo,

Hemos llegado a este bonito lugar por pura casualidad y nos gusto mucho.

Pasamos unos dias maravillosos en un ambiente muy tranquilo y relajante.

Muchas gracias por su fina atencion y hospitalidad. Lastima que hay tan pocos costaricenses que tengan la oportunidad de conocer este lugar.

Esperamos volver algun dia.

Dear Agnes an Jo,

Thank you so very much for a magnificent stay.

Tracy

 

As for me, I have been having dreams about dwarfs and penguins since we got here. I gained 60 pounds from Joe's desserts and the croissants. Joe would not marry me (again!) but didn't close out the possibility in the future if we come back. So of course we will.

Agnes can't wait until next time. Villa Mango is the gem of Costa Rica. We love you both (and Minette).

Waking up to the view of the waves crashing on the rocks far below was thrilling and we didn't have to move our heads from the pillow!

Agnes' warmth made us feel welcome from the first moment and the feeling of being dear friends continued.

The magic of seeing the coatis drinking from the pool was surpassed only by the fresh baked bread at breakfast.

We love it here! I will miss Minette (cat) who loves my lap and vice versa.

We will return...

Dear Agnes & Jo

Our stay at Villa Mango has been a dream... Everything so much better than we hoped for, a beautiful room and an even more romantic bathroom... Love that shower! Our private hammock inviting us to make ourselves at home.

You two are wonderful hosts, gracious, warm, friendly and comfortable. Thank you for the most splendid breakfasts and dinner, hanging out with Max and entertaining monkeys. If you're ever in NYC, please don't hesitate to look us up. Maybe we could go out swing dancing :)

 

Thank you again, all the best

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thank you so much for this wonderful time in your house! We've enjoyed this place so much, with you two as our wonderful host and hostess, with all your sweet and handsome animals around, the ATV with what Malte had lot's of fun, the beautiful dinner with fresh tuna and every single minute we could spend at your Villa Mango. We would like to spend lots more time here, but our holiday is over. We don't want to leave, but I think the pictures in our mind will keep for a while ...or we hope forever!  We also have to thank Tino and Marcella for the tip to come here. I think they will read this in a while because they came back to you to relax, and eat...   P.S.  Please don't be angry Jo that Portugal lost against Germany at the World Cup  2006 in Germany... (Malte told  me to write this..) Thanks for spending a little piece of your paradise. 

Lots of love

Malte & Kaissa,  PURA VIDA

Sitting on the balcony and watching the lightning storm roll by is something we will never forget.

We will definitely be back!       -Richard & Jocelyn Emory

Irene & Andres.

Dear Agnes & Jo,

We  are so blessed to have found you here in Nosara. We have so enjoyed our stay at Villa Mango. It really is paradise... the breathtaking views, the animals, the food, all fantastic but your hospitality and kindness we both found genuine and rare. We wish you nothing but continued success and will be sure to come back to Villa Mango. Thank you for making our honeymoon so special, we will remember all of it fondly.      

With gratitude,

Angee & Darren Mooneyhan

 

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality. The house is absolutely beautiful. I really enjoyed our evening conversations and hearing about your adventures. Breakfast was really nice as well, I will definitely be coming back and staying much longer next time. Hopefully I can get some things in my life organized real soon and we can invest in some properties together. You both are very special people.  See you soon.

Sincerely,   

Cris Yonenaka

Dear Agnes & Jo, Thank you again so very much for such an amazing experience. We are going to have a very difficult time explaining the beauty of this place back home.  It's hard to explain that such a place exists.  It was so wonderful meeting you and I hope that we are able to make it back here some day. You are very special people and we are very grateful that we were able to share some time with you.  It is an experience we will never forget. Thank you for a great time.

Love,  

Natalie & Ben

 

Dear Agnes & Jo,

 Our brief trip to Costa Rica couldn't be better - we had a wonderful time and our best memory is your hospitality & kindness. Your hotel is full of beautiful details that combine with our experiences and make an unforgettable memory. We hope to be back again soon and for more time! Thank you and hope you are well.  Keep in touch.

Agnes & Jo, Merci Beaucoup!

We are so glad Tino & Marcella brought us here to your home. Staying here was the most perfect way to end our holiday.  If you ever decide to finish your trip down into South America send us an e-mail and we'll share any information we have.

Thanks for a relaxing and comfortable weekend on the coast.

Muchas gracias por todo, siempre es un placer regresar donde ustedes. Agnes & Jo tienen algo especial, una "Buena Vibra" como decimos los ticos. Yamileth es una chica muy buena tambien. Gracias por un exelente desayuno tambien! Simpere saludable.   - Marcela

Yeah once again it's been a pleasure.  Jo: the rims on your Ford are 15" and the tires I've got are 16".... sorry.  Keep up the good vibe.  Tino

Dearest Agnes & Jo,

 

I'm not sure where to begin.  I went in looking for a place Lisa and I could remember as a beautiful experience to begin our lives together, but left with amazing experiences and two new friends that we will cherish forever!

You guys have something special that we can only hope to strive for the same. Villa Mango is a tropical paradise in every sense of the word.  But above all, Lisa and I will never forget your warm hospitality and caring ways.

I could honestly sit and listen to the two of you tell stories all day! Jo with his hand gestures as he narrates and Agnes with subtle and energetic passion. We loved hearing about all of your amazing experiences, and lets just say I will never look at chocolate éclairs or mermaids the same way again! ha-ha. So to Agnes, Jo, Minute the cat, Snookie, Yami, and our monkey friends, thanks for an incredible Costa Rican experience

 

Adios & Au revoir  

Ryan & Lisa 

Cheers Agnes & Jo, I remember looking with you and making sure that we honeymooners had our own "private" entrance, sitting out with you two every night.  I've loved every minute of your company!!! Your liberal, adventurous spirits taught me a lot about generosity, love and faithfulness

Greece then Egypt,  Thanks for everything

We thought we were lost when we landed in Nosara, but "found" Villa Mango, Agnes,  Jo & Snooky & Minette! The only thing more beautiful than your Villa and view is your spirit & ability to bring people together. When we are buried in snow we will think of sitting on your terrace drinking coffee & listening to the sound of the rain on the roof & listening to your colorful stories!  Friends for life!

Amy & Steve Ohran 

 It was divine intervention that we got lost and ended up in paradise! Who would have guessed it? We have had the most wonderful experience being here at Villa Mango. It is very hard to leave.  Agnes & Jo.....you are amazing people. You will be king and queen in your next lives. Thank so much for your hospitality.   

With love, Bill and Misty Ohran

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay in Costa Rica, and your generous gift to Project Niños. Villa Mango is a wonderful place to stay where you have thought of everything. Meeting Snooky was the highlight of our trip. Especially for the bego! We hope to return some day. It was great meeting you.

Merci beaucoup pour toute votre hospitalite.  En arrivant a Nosara, nous allions rester dans un endroit beaucoup different d'ici, pour dire le moins.  Villa Mango est un paradis cache et nous sommes si contentes pour l'avoir rencontre.   Le petit dejeuner est le meilleur que nous avons eu pendant toutes les six semaines au Costa Rica.

Merci Mille Fois.  C'est sur que nous recommenderons Villa Mango a tout le monde.  Avec chance, nous reviendrons.

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thank you so much for our incredible vacation. Finding Villa Mango was such a blessing for us, and we were all grateful for giving us the nicest room. All the litle details like the beautiful view from our shower, letting us finish off the open Vodka and the relaxing hammocks everywhere. We loved it!

We will miss Snookie and Minette! Thank you for the wonderful breakfast every morning and providing for every possible need we had while staying with you. We will remember this vacation for all of our life, thanks to your wonderful hospitality. Gracias!

Dear Agnes & Jo,

So glad we stumbled across your beautiful piece of paradise. We have thoroughly enjoyed the "energy" of your B&B and wonderful hospitality.  It's hard to move on from this place, but we're looking forward to our new adventures.

Dear Agnes & Jo,

What a joy to be back after two years. This is as close to Eden as we have ever found. This has been a very international week. Canadians, a Dane, a German, an American, a Cuban, and French have been here. A great week for us. Thank you for a wonderful week. God bless you both richly.  

Paul and Rosalie Augustine     Cranbrook B.R. Canada

Dear Agnes & Jo,

An all too brief visit to paradise has come to an end.-Thank you so much for a wonderful week ! The ocean, the palm trees, our beautiful room - even the great breakfasts were no match to the two of you! Thank you for the laughs, great conversations, help, hints and for being so much more than a "normal" B&B. 

As we say in California,   "We'll be back!!"

All our best wishes, Nette and Frankie

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thanks for your great hospitality!! Especially giving up your room for me! It was a great week and you made that happen.  I will definitely be back.

Thanks for everything, Mark

 

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thank you so much! We are so grateful our first time in Costa Rica was here in Villa Mango. The wonderful room, delicious meals, and generous hospitality made our vacation one to remember! Logan would like to say an extra special thank you for the sand dollar! We looked all over for one and he had his heart set on it! You made his vacation!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We loved it here              

  ~*♥*~ We will be back again!  ~*♥*~

Nov 25, 2007

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thank you so much for your generous hospitality. This has been an amazing vacation thanks to you. You have a beautiful B&B, we loved our room, especially the hammock outside our room. The wild life was a special treat.

We will never forget seeing monkeys right outside our window room. The spotted skunk was a crazy experience. I will cherish the memory of all of us cornering it to get it out of the kitchen. We won't miss the scorpions.  But it was exciting and no one got stung.

Also thanks for your help on the fire spinning project and rescuing me at the hardware store!! We have both decided that we need to learn Spanish  and will be practicing this back  in California ( I have started reading a book in Spanish already!) This place is awesome, and very relaxing. You two are such gracious hosts. The food was soooooo delicious!

We will miss you!  Love, Mary & Cris Tyler

 

Nov. 25, 2007

Dear Agnes & Jo,

Thank you so much for hospitality and your wonderful food! This is - hands down - the best B&B I have ever stayed in. I'm so happy to have found this place and hope to be back again one day soon.

 Thanks again, Sara Ohearn

The second time around was just as good as the first. What can I say? Will be back every year I hope. Next year with one extra! :-)

Love you all, Erika

You have a paradise at the top of this mountain. We have enjoyed our short time here but have developed some nice memories.

Thank you for your hospitality and warm welcome.

 Like a rainbow made of rock gravel and stone, you'll find the pot of gold titled "Villa Mango"

A place where friendships of decades are reunited and new friendships begin.  Serene, tranquil, vistas that sooth the soul and clear the mind. This place truly is a treasure. A thousand thanks to Agnes and to Jo for their humbleness and joyous personalities which made for a wonderful stay. Thanks again you guys.

 Expect to see us again!

Our two-day stay somehow doubled ( I'm sure that hasn't happened before!?!) After traveling around for many weeks it was great to find such a beautiful and tranquil setting to call home. Thanks for the great hospitality, we will be back for sure.

Hospitality at its best!!  Who would have thought the British and the French would get along?!? Amazing stay

Agnes & Jo,

You two have been the most excellent hosts during our stay and I only wish we had found you sooner! Arriving here as we did, after having spent 2 nights at a lesser quality (unnamed) inn, has been as different as night and day!

Being greeted at the door by Yami on the day we arrived was a breath of fresh air! And you two, in the midst of all your activity, in your busy lives, during these recent days still took the time to explain and advise us about all things Nosara. For your thoughtfulness and graciousness we will forever be thankful. We will certainly return home to spread the word about this wonderful oasis you've created here!

Yours in gratitude, Bridgette & Jeff

 Dear Agnes and Jo,

Thanks for sharing your home your hospitality, and your warmth with us. Even before we arrived you made us feel welcome and calm that everything would work out fine, and it certainly did!

It's true that you have a beautiful setting and a natural wonderland around the house but it's your obvious love of people that makes Villa Mango a special place, to which we're already planning to return.

Thanks for all the information and help about the practical side of Nosara. El Pochote was a great experience with a one minute walk from the beach.

When you come to New York, you have a home with us. Just e-mail. Feliz Navidad, Prospero Año Nuevo!

We had a fantastic time here and are sad to be leaving even though we have a new adventure to the Volcan Arenal ahead of us. One of our favorite things, I think, was being able to see the howler monkeys in the trees below the Villa here. Thank you Agnes and Jo for a fabulous time and sharing  your beautiful place.

Agnes & Jo, Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality! I wish I could bring your porch home with me! I will miss it along with the wonderful breakfasts, howler monkeys, Snookie, Minette and Coatis. We loved it. What an escape. Au revoir until next time-
