July 31, 2009 “ Thank you again for helping to organize such a great vacation. Even after staying at the Tabacon resort we all agreed that the Gilded Iguana has exacty want we want from a resort. Not only is the Gilded Iguana a great place to visit but a lot of the memories came from your friendly staff. Dino and the rest of the team were always very friendly and always made sure we were well taken care of in the true costa rican spirit of Pura Vida.  
 We look forward to another visit in the near future. Thank you again for making everyone's vacation so memorable. Matt “

Nov. 15, 2009 “Had a great stay and look forward to coming back.  Going to post a review on trip advisor.  Your staff was very helpful.  The highlight was the flan for dessert.  If it's made at the restaurant, would you consider parting with the recipe so I can relive my experience at home.  Thanks. janet newell”

Jan.25,2010 "My trip to Costa Rica was the best trip I have ever been on, and part of that was due to your amazing place and staff. Everyday held more smiles for me. Roger, Dino,  Jordanny, Dee and Freddy were incredible. They work so hard, and they still take the time to get to know all the guests that stay at the Iguana. The food, and the atmosphere was also better than any other hotel I have stayed in. Each meal was delicious, and the dining experience both inside the restaurant area, at the pool bar, and on the grass on music night was so fun, and inviting! I will certainly be back. I truly needed a vacation to renew my spirit, and that is exactly what happened during my stay there." - Aja

March 23, 2010 -"Just a note of thank you for the hospitality and great time we had over the last week at your place.  I can't tell you how relaxing it was, how terrific your staff is (especially Dee and Dino), and what a great time my son had at the pool. 
Everyone who works there was so pleasant.  Dee is like a friend and spirit you have known for many a day; warm, thoughtful and kind. We will enjoy closing our eyes, remembering and feeling, the warm air and good times we enjoyed there.
We'll be back. The Iguana is the only place to stay.  You guys really know how to run a great hotel, and have captured the tropical vibe so many places struggle--and fail--to create. 
And the food is GREAT. Back soon, I hope."    Tom, Debi and Drew
