Our time in Cabo was great. The condo was more than we expected. It was big, beautiful, clean and great views from the terrace. We enjoyed the gift basket. We did not use the transportation service but rented a car. We especially liked the idea of the pantry being stocked with most everything one could ask for. Nothing you purchase goes to waste. We couldn't get the safe to lock but didn't really need it. We would stay in this unit again without doubt and have already recommended it to friends.
We also would be interested in other properties you manage elsewhere.

We had a wonderful trip. The welcome basket was an unexpected surprise and much appreciated! The surrounding area is certainly beautiful and my husband and I look forward to returning. The water and the Arch in the background are just breathtaking. We loved our room at La Estancia and the ocean front with the window over the Jacuzzi was my favorite!
Thank you for asking how the trip went. We really did enjoy it!

Our trip to Cabo was wonderful!!! Everyone in our party, kids and adults alike, enjoyed themselves. The villa was perfect for us – everything from size, configuration, amenities and cleanliness. The property was beautiful and extremely well maintained, which is so important to us. We supported all the restaurants and the spa, which were convenient and well received by all of us. The welcome gift was just what was needed to get us started!!
It is on our list for a trip back some day.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the support and ease of planning!!!

We had a very nice time in Cabo. You were all very helpful from the booking of the room to reservations for restaurants. The La Estancia spoke highly of Giovanni. We had several other friends who did not book thru you and they did not get the rooms they were told they would get and some had to stay at different hotels. It was quite a fiasco for them. Us however we were in good hands.
Thank you so much!

Giovanni,
Our trip to Cabo was fabulous....the condo was more than what we expected. The staff at the La Estancia was overly friendly....the manager and crew at the restaurant were exceptionally great. We all plan to return sometime next year for sure.
We will definitely recommend your place to all our friends...it was truly beautiful and very clean...and the view was great.
Thanks for having such a great place to stay.

Dear Giovanni,
Our vacation was wonderful. We were impressed with the accommodations at Villa La Estancia. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I loved the terraces. Having both 1303A&B allowed us to be together but certainly allowed for privacy. The service at the resort was top-notch. When we visit Cabo again, you will hear from us, and we will share your information with our friends.
Stephanie Walker - Oct 2007
Dear Giovanni,
Just a note of thanks to say how much we enjoyed our accommodations at Cabo La Estancia over spring break, and how well all transportation arrangements you made on our behalf worked out. Normally, we would not send a letter of thanks, but this clearly was an exception. We were delighted and pleasantly surprised to say the least.
The Villa at La Estancia was beautiful and spacious. We leased a two bedroom unit which worked out perfectly for our family. The views of the ocean were incredible and the amenities were great. Our children had their privacy on one side of the villa, we had ours in the master bedroom on the other side, and the large living room and kitchen in between served us well.
Friends staying at other facilities noted that their “queen” beds were really doubles, and so we were glad to discover that ours were actual king and queen-sized beds. It was by far one of the nicest units we have ever rented, including those available at luxury hotels. In addition, your transportation service to and from the airport was simple and carefree, as it should be. We highly recommend your professional services and Villa La Estancia to anyone traveling to Cabo San Lucas.

Hi Giovanni,
We LOVED La Estancia it was so beautiful! We had a spectacular view and felt so relaxed there! The condos are gorgeous with plenty of elbow room for a family of 5....We spent a lot of time out on the balcony, had a fantastic time at the dolphin swim.........etc........Thank you.....it was awesome!
Iris Jacobson - Apr 2007
Hi Giovanni,
We just returned from our one week stay at Villa La Estancia and LOVED LOVED LOVED it. You had mentioned that VLE was nice but it was beyond GORGEOUS in our opinion. My friends and I love to travel and have been to many places but this was by far was the nicest resort we have EVER stayed at. The rooms were beyond spacious and the decor was so nice that we felt as though we were in someone's home. The service was incredible and by the time we left we were best friends with the front desk and they knew us by name. The restaurants were good and the service by the pool was awesome...we never had to get out of the pool b/c the waiters would place our food poolside so we didn't have to get out of the water. The view of Land's End was beautiful The location of VLE was PERFECT....a 3 minute cab ride into town took us to all of the shops and the nightlife (which was also fantastic).
I cannot thank you enough and want to assure you that we WILL be back. We have already spread the word about Cabo, VLE and about your team at Cabo La Estancia.
Very best regards :)

Hello Giovanni,
We had a great time at Villa La Estancia 1301 (the ocean front). Everything was in excellent condition as you described it. The view was spectacular and the employees went out of there way to make this a special week. I will never forget my 65th birthday and my stay at Villa La Estancia.
Harold Hinds - Apr 2006
Giovanni,
Cabo was awesome! It was my first time to the area. I will definitely recommend the destination to my friends and consider a return trip in the future. Villa La Estancia was extremely nice. The accommodations were considerably more expensive than I am accustomed to paying, but I must say that the luxury that we enjoyed was worth the price. With my limited exposure to Los Cabos, I would also recommend the general location of Villa La Estancia. We enjoyed the proximity to Cabo San Lucas - close, but not too close. I'm sure that there are many nice resorts along the tourist corridor, but I personally would not want to be 1/2 way between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose Del Cabo. Thanks for your help.
Brad Turney, Executive Account Manager - Mar 2006
Giovanni,
It turned out to be exactly as you described. La Estancia is a wonderful property in a great locale. The condo was nicely furnished and very clean. The staff at the front desk was helpful with dinner reservations and for scheduling exscursions. I would highly recommend it to any of your clients.
John P. McGoff, MD - Mar 2006
Giovanni,
We had a wonderful time in Cabo and really enjoyed your condo at VLE. As a destination for nightlife, golf, weather year-round, there is no comparison. The Ocean front unit 1301 offered wonderful views. Facility was clean and had much of the amenities we were looking for. Thanks again.
Lauren Bishop (Merrill Lynch -First Vice President ) - Feb 2006
Giovanni,
We had a great time in Penthouse 1806! It will be hard to surpass the luxury and relaxation that we all got while there. On any future vacations, I will highly recommend you and Villa Estancia to anyone I know looking for a fabulous location.
Thanks for the help in planning.

Giovanni,
Villa Estancia was fantastic. The pictures of the condos do not do it justice. Thanks to you we are sold on coming back and back as much as possible each year. The workers in estancia know how to give 5 star service. Everyone there goes out of there way for each guest. The service around the pool area was unmatched by anyplace I have ever been. We will calling you again that's for sure.
Stuart Banks - 2005
Hey Giovanni,
La Estancia is one of the BEST places I have ever stayed. Absolutely Beautiful and the customer service was phenomenal. I have already sent a friend your phone number to book their vacation. Villa 1401 is incredible all we could say over and over was how beautiful it was. Thanks again and I will be back!!
Lauren Bishop (Southwest ISS Vice President) - Nov 2005
Giovanni,
Cabo exceeded our expectations. It was cleaner and the people were friendlier than other parts of Mexico that we have been to and will never return to (Cancun & Cozumel) and we did not get sick. The Villa was perfect. It was spotlessly clean and was well equipped. Ground level was great because it was convenient. We particularly liked the hottub by the ocean and how the pool was built. The only suggestion I have is that it would have been nice to have the pool bar stay open later than 5:30 p.m.
The staffs service at the Villa was excellent. They were quick to respond when we placed a service call on the air conditioner and when getting our rental car when needed. They were also friendly and nice which we have often found is uncommon when traveling outside the US. The location of the Villa is great being just a short walk down the beach to restaurants and a short drive to downtown.
My husband and I have traveled all over the Caribbean, to Hawaii and the other side of Mexico and we both agree that Cabo and Villa La Estancia is the only place so far that we would even consider buying a full or partial ownership. This is based on the climate, people, accessibility, diving and the plentiful seafood. Any information or suggestions you have regarding ownership would be appreciated. Unfortunately we did not inquire while we were there.
Dana LaRosa - Oct 2005
Giovanni,
We had a wonderful stay at La Estancia in Villa 1201. We were very happy with the service and attention you provided. My wife and I are going back early next year and will be giving you a call!!!!!!!
Thank You
Justin Walker - Oct 2005
Giovanni,
You have an AMAZING place and we really enjoyed staying there at, Villa La Estancia, Penthouse 2801. I would HIGHLY recommend your place to my friend and hopefully I'll get a chance to make a return visit in the near future.
Thanks for everything!
Brian - Aug 2005
Hello Giovanni,
The villa was beautiful, peaceful and very relaxing...it more than met our expectations. The villa seemed to be in the perfect location with the breathtaking views of Land's End, Medano Beach, the Sea of Cortez and the beautiful pool. We especially enjoyed the convenience of the pool, swim-up bar and restaurant at just a "stone's throw" away. The staff was exceptional; everyone was helpful, respectful and accommodating. 5 Stars!
We'll be in touch soon! Save us our villa!
Thank you for everything!
Rene & Allyson - May 2005
Hi Giovanni,
Cabo was wonderful. Your place is very beautiful! All in all, the vacation was excellent. Check-in was fast and our rooms were ready shortly after we arrived. La Estancia's location seems to be perfect -- close enough to walk to town, far enough from the bars for quiet evenings!
Estancia is a beautiful property and the small grocery store, ice cream shop and spa make it incredibly convenient. Downtown Cabo is fabulous for shopping and dining and i loved the fact we could walk so many places. We hope to someday return during a non spring break vacation and experience it all without the crowds!
Many thanks again for making the arrangements. I already miss the sun and sand!
Karen Grau - Apr 2005
Giovanni,
The penthouse is great. Thanks for all the help.
Doug Blossey - Feb 2005
Dear Giovanni,
We had a great time in Los Cabos and Villa La Estancia was absolutely fantastic.
I'm sure that some point in the future we will return. There isn't much to say as to suggestions as everything went well and we all had a great time. The unit itself was magnificent. Thanks for your assistance
Vic Borden - Jan 2005
Hi Giovanni,
Cabo was wonderful. The unit was beautiful. Thanks for your help!
Jason - Jan 2005
Dear Giovanni,
Villa La Estancia was incredible and probably one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. I was a little skeptical at first, renting over the inter net, etc. but you were very accommodating and the vacation was one of our best ever.
The vacation was so spur of the moment that we did not have the time to research Cabo as well as we could have, but the car suggestion and the info about Costco were helpful. The car was not necessary, but certainly more convenient and probably less expensive than taking a taxi, especially once we learned that we did not have to valet the car every time. Anyone going and planning to call home would be wise to utilize the availability of a telephone calling card which can be obtained in the lobby.
We are looking forward to returning to Villa La Estancia, hopefully next time with another couple. We have told everyone what a wonderful place Villa La Estancia is and would highly recommend anyone going to Cabo to stay there. The location is great, close to town, but not too close. Everything is so convenient.
Thank you for everything and we look forward to calling you again and please feel free to use us as a reference.
Happy New Year!
Larry and Paula Semple - Dec 2005
Hey Giovanni,
Cabo was awesome. My family and I, not to mention all of our friends that were there, had a great time. La Estancia is top notch. I think we would definitely be interested in visiting there again sometime. Thanks for all your help and have a great holiday. Lets go JETS!
Phil Lembo - Dec 2004
Hi Giovanni,
We all had a great time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will definitely be calling you next time we go to Cabo
Thank you very much!
Robert Burner, American Sheet Metal - Dec 2004
Hi Gio,
Thanks for the note. My apologies for the delay, it's been hectic here -- the usual holiday and "after vacation" stuff.
Cabo was excellent, just what we needed!! The room was spectacular -- the view, phenomenal (except the darned cruise ships blocking it most days, nothing you can do about that.) The service was primarily exceptional. There was one afternoon that we were napping (siesta) and the cleaning folks kept knocking and we would say "please come back later" and then the concierge would ring, we wouldn't pick up the phone (we were sleeping and no one had our phone number of where we were), but wouldn't leave a message. It was a bit irritating... I guess we should have put the "privacy" door tag up or answered the phone, but we were exhausted. The meals were exceptional and the service was above expectations. As a frequent business traveler, I have become "picky" about hotel and restaurant service because I spend so much time on the road. The service at La Estancia not only met but exceeded my expectations. It was a great time to go because it was really "quiet" at the Villa ...relatively few people at the pool and in the restaurants, although I have nothing to measure it against, having never been to Cabo previously.
Thank you for offering the gorgeous facilities. You don't happen to have any in San Francisco, do you? We are headed there in Feb for a little get away (to get over the winter "blah's"!).
Please feel free to contact me if you would like any further details.
Theresa Alcorn - Dec 2004
Hi Mr. Giammarco...we just returned.
I wanted to thank you for everything. The Villa was even nicer than we had expected. The service was perfect and everyone went out of their way to insure that we were happy. I will be calling soon to book it again in the event we don't just purchase one, which we are discussing. Again, thank you. Mike Nyland PS: Thank Estaban again for everything. Make sure to tell him to send everyone to the "old" Trailer Park for dinner. The "new" Trailer Park is lousy.
