"We stayed Feb. 1 - Feb. 8th, 2008. It was our wedding, and the house was perfect to accomadate our big family. The view is beautiful and in a great location near town. We had so much fun and wish we could have stayed longer. Everything was well maintained and clean! Definitely would stay again when I go back. Ortiz - Langanki Family" - Anonymous, Ramsey, MN, 03/03/08 (inquire/book)

"On August 2007 I stayed at The Casa de Paraiso for a week. It was a wonderful experience. I've been to Puerto Rico 5 times in my life, but this 6th time was trully amazing and I had the most fun. Starting of with Tropical Trails, my 5 girls were drilled to ride their own horse for the first time. The weather was beautiful and the AC in the house was perfect. I went to the beaches, Las Cascadas in Aguadilla and the Ice Skating Arena. We had tons of fun. The house was perfect size to accomodate all 7 of us. We played games at night and even played hide and seek. The best thing for me was the terrace, every morning at 6am I would go out and admire the beautiful view. Blanco was a true gentleman, very courteous and helpful. The house was AWESOME!!! Thank you so much, The MERCADO family...." - Yvette Mercado, Bronxville, New York, 09/10/07 (inquire/book)

"My family and I (a group of 10 people) went to PR for my Grandfather's 100th Birthday Celebration in July. We loved staying in this beautiful home. The house was comfortably accommodating, clean and very well equipped. The kids enjoyed the game boards and had plenty of yard space to run around. It was so nice to have everything you need to have a great time: toys, beach towels and chairs, and deck chairs for sunbathing, reading, etc. It was home away from home, with the additional benefit of the ocean's view. One thing we could not understand is how people can live in PR with limited air conditioning. The house has central air! This house was a blessing. Ayn, the owner, was a pleasure to work with. This was our first time renting a house, so we had many questions. Ayn answered all of our questions and addressed our concerns. Ayn: thank you." - Nidia, Chicago, Illinois, 08/03/07 (inquire/book)

"I can still taste the empandillas that we got almost every day at a small roadside stand near Shack's Beach. You don't find those in upstate New York. Isabela and the surrounding areas along the north west shore of Puerto Rico is a location that you must visit. By staying at the Casa De Paraiso, we enjoyed the best possible family vacation you could have. The house was confortable, well equiped, located near many perfect beaches and just far enough off the main roads that you really felt like you were in a different country. Much of Puerto is Americanized but when you venture off the main highways, you can experience many exciting and interesting vistas. We loved the Friday market at San Sabestian. The drive on Rt 112 was almost as interesting! We surfed at Jobos, snorkled and scuba dived at Shacks and enjoyed the sandy beach at Crashboat. Dinner at the Happy Belly is always a treat. Make sure you go and stay at the CAsa De Paraiso!" - Greg Adams, Ballston Lake, N.Y., 05/01/07 (inquire/book)

"We had a great time at Casa De Paraiso. The house is well appointed, clean, good A/C and good water. The location is great for the surfing, beaches. The owners and the local contact easy to work with and very friendly. The west side of Puerto Rico is beautiful and relatively undiscovered. Enjoy !! Steve Jones" - Steven Jones, Vero Beach, FL., 03/30/07 (inquire/book)

"We absolutely loved our week at Casa De Paraiso! What a beautiful home -- well-stocked, well-maintained, and comfortable. It easily accommodated our whole family (my husband and I and our two children (ages 6 & 4), my parents, and my grandmother). We loved Isabella and exploring the western side of Puerto Rico -- Las Cuevas de Camuy, the beautiful beaches at Boqueron and Rincon, the zoo in Mayaguez, the ocean restaurants in Joyuda, and just seeing the beautiful countryside and enjoying the wonderful island. Our 4-year-old son loved the vacation so much he would put his hands behind his head, recline, and say (with a smile on his face), "life is good." Life is definitely good at Casa De Paraiso. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!! Stowe-Alekman Family (Belchertown, MA)" - Rebecca Stowe, 03/14/07 (inquire/book)

"My children and grandchildren spent two weeks here in January. The weather was perfect, the house had everything and more than we expected. A wonderful way to keep the family together on vacation. Evening sunsets and ocean views made my time here memorable." - Frank Ferendo, Westerly, RI, 02/04/07 (inquire/book)

"The Casa De Paraiso is a great place to stay. If you are going to Isabella, I recommend the Casa De Paraiso. Richard L. Nacamuli" - Richard Nacamuli, Milwaukee, WI, 01/11/07 (inquire/book)

"5 Stars ***** Casa De Paraiso was the perfect holiday house and accommodated 2 families [4 adults and 6 children - ages 13,10,9,9,4,1] quite easily. The house is fully equiped with all the mod cons, even a washing machine and tumble dryer, which came in extremely handy with six children. The house is close to the supermarkets and local beaches [ideal for the surfing types] but if you want calmer waters a must is crashboat beach [approx 20 mins away] which is ideal for small children and the snorkelling fan. One thing we would highly recommend is to jump into the car and go exploring but get a high quality road map as getting lost is part of the excitement, the views from the centre of the island were amazing All we can say: Lovely Place, Lovely House, Lovely Time. And thank you The Foulds Family" - Richard Foulds, Selly Park, Birmingham, UK, 01/09/07 (inquire/book)

"Fully eqipped, comfortable home with everything a family should need. Had a fabulous time with our friends, the Fould family. Puerto Rico is, quite simply, a beautiful island and perfect vacation destination. I would not hestitate to recommend Ayn's home to others wanting to visit this picture perfect Island." - Jane Onslow , Ellicott City, Maryland, 01/09/07 (inquire/book)

"Upon the first step into this beautiful home, I knew I was in for a treat. Very clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable furnishings, and everything you could possibly need provided. I thoroughly enjoyed the terrace off the master bedroom, with the million-dollar-view of the Atlantic Ocean. How wonderful it was to spend quiet time listening to the ocean, enjoying the gentle breeze, drinking coffee, and reading a favorite book. The information provided about the area was great, thoroughly enjoyed the beaches you recommended. Thanks for the information about scuba-diving, it was a great experience. Should I ever get the opportunity to visit again, I know that I can pack much lighter, as you have provided a washer and dryer, which is very much appreciated. Thanks again Ayn and Damian for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home. I have never seen so many shooting stars in my whole life! Thanks again and many blessings. Kim" - Kim, Harrisburg Illinois, 12/24/06 (inquire/book)

"It was a great pleasure to stay at Casa De Paraiso in Isabela! The home is beautiful and is close by to everything you could possibly want and need! Home away from home!" - Danny J, NYC, 12/04/06 (inquire/book)

"My family and I stayed here in the beginning of July and had a wonderful time! This house is beautiful and the location was perfect. You can easily get to the beaches and the highway. There were ten of us in the house and there was plenty of room, we never felt crowded. There were plenty of things kept at the house for my four year old to do including kites, beach toys, and yard games. My favorite part (and what I miss the most) was the balcony at night. The view at sunset was breathtaking and the coqui sang to us every night!" - Michelle , Elyria, OH, 08/17/06 (inquire/book)

"The house was a beautiful and restful place. We loved Isabela and hope to return some day." - Todd Burks, 08/08/06 (inquire/book)

"Casa De Paraiso was the perfect place for our family reunion/vacation! The entire home is beautiful and very clean. We enjoyed having a kitchen for snacks as well as cooking a few meals. Ayn was extremely helpful with suggestions on local activities, eating establishments and making sure we found our way around the island. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and a great location for getting to the beaches. If you are looking for a nice place to stay, this is your home!" - Natalie Lincoln, 08/01/06 (inquire/book)

"The house is absolutely beautiful and big enough for us to have a comfortable stay.We enjoy the peacefulness and the closeness of all beaches and stores. All the amenities in the house was a plus to make us feel right at home. We hope all future guest enjoy their stay as much as we did." - Hector, Brooklyn,NY, 07/18/06 (inquire/book)

"The house is absolutely beautiful. The house accomodated my family perfectly. The 2.5 bathroom is a wonderful provision for a large family. The area was very peaceful. The amenities included made the vacation even more enjoyable.My family and I really enjoyed staying at your house and Ayn you were so helpful giving us precise directions and details about the area to make it easy for us to find stores,etc. The beaches were wonderful and we especially enjoyed Crashboat Beach. I hope that future guest enjoy Casa De Paraiso as much as we did." - Hector, Brooklyn,NY, 07/12/06 (inquire/book)

"Our too-short stay was very pleasant; thanks for working with us on arranging this on short notice." - Mike and Jean Davis, Hat Creek, CA, 06/25/06 (inquire/book)

"We enjoyed our stay more than any other time we have been to Puerto Rico! We had a group of 8 and everyone was very impressed with the house and that it had everything we needed! Everyone was sad to leave the house when our vacation was over, and we are already talking about when we are going back. Thank you for everything, and for being a part of our great vacation! We would all love to stay again." - Rebecca, Bloomingdale, NJ, 05/09/06 (inquire/book)

"This house was incredible! a beautiful home, with all the amenities. It was very comfortable and clean, close to everything. The beach was a few minutes away and we enjoyed the tropical trail rides. The rooms were perfect sizing, with big closets to fit everything. There was an abundant amount of towels. The balcony was beautiful, we all sat outside and saw the stars, even a shooting star, it was very romantic. There would be horses infront of the house every morning, they wouldn't bother at all. Overall, the house was exactly what we wanted, and we're hoping to return and stay here again. I recommend it to everyone, it's worth it." - Thomas, Baldwin, NY, 05/03/06 (inquire/book)

"The house was the perfect accomodation for my group of 10 people. We were all extremely comfortable and had all the amenities we could have asked for. Playa Jobos is a wonderful beach, and Ayn recommended a fantastic instructor for surfing lessons, which we all throughly enjoyed. We had a lovely stay." - Ankita , Washington, DC, 03/29/06 (inquire/book)

"Hi Ayn The house was great clean, had everything we needed and was near everything. Loved crashboat beach. Went to celebrate my daughters 16th birthday, traveled with 5 other girls renting the house was the best way to go saved money and got to spend quality time together, Instead of staying in four seperate hotel rooms, we had meals together or just sat around watching TV or playing games (which were in the house), coming home with all clean cloths to unpack and put away was great having a washer and dryer was a plus. If your thinking about this house you couldn't deal with better owners. Its a home away from home but better. Thanks Ayn " - Anonymous, 03/08/06 (inquire/book)

"Casa De Paraiso is much more than just a vacation house, it is a destination in itself. The house is perfectly appointed, very clean, and close to everything. I think my favorite room is the master suite, which is spacious and breezy. You can open the terrace doors and lay in bed and watch and listen to the Atlantic ocean. It is truly paradise on earth. From Casa De Paraiso, you have very quick trips to beautiful downtown Isabela, Playa Isabela, Playa Jobos, or Aguadilla. Aguadilla has a really nice mall for those days when you are too sunburned for more beach time. My advice is to pack light and maybe take an empty or buy another suitcase there. Stopping roadside for a Coco Frio or fresh fruits and vegetables is a must! You just cannot compare fresh tropical fruits to what is available in the mainland markets. Ayn and Damian run an extremely nice vacation house. I personally appreciate very much the hospitality and the professionalism. If you are reading this and are considering a Carribean vacation, you simply can't go wrong by having a whole house to yourself - especially Casa De Paraiso. I do not personally like being boxed in a hotel room, having to deal with parking problems, lugging baggage down tight hallways. At Casa De Paraiso, you are at home. The staff at Casa De Paraiso were also concerned about our stay and wanted to make sure everything was good. Only a phone call away, Blanco and his wife were on hand for any problems or needs that arose. I will definately go back to Puerto Rico. The people are extremely helpful and sincere, the views are breathtaking, the fun is limitless. Literally every turn reveals a feast for the senses. Thank you Ayn and Damian for making your house available. Ben Walker" - Ben Walker, Golconda, IL, 02/21/06 (inquire/book)

"Comment Text: My wife and I and three kids spent a week here over New Year. A truly memorable vacation. The house is just perfect. It's spotless and it has everything you'll need. Also, Ayn could not have been more helpful. If you're considering renting this house for a vacation - "just do it". " - Dave & Pamela Bateman, Alpharetta, GA, 01/16/06 (inquire/book)

"My entire family stayed in Ayn's beautiful, spacious, well decorated and equipped rental home over Christmas to celebrate my parent's 50th Wedding Anniv. Needing activities for ages 16-70, we found Ayn's knowledge and all her information, suggestions, and recommendations to be right on the money. Perfect place for a large family with enough room to spread out, equipped with everything possible. SIX TV's!....who needs TV when you are in Paradise?...but the older folk appreciated them. I especially loved the upstairs terrace at night being serenaded by coqui and in the morning sipping coffee and being serenaded by every rooster in the nearby town. What a hoot! It took us 2 days to figure out what that distant "music" was. Loved it! The caretaker was a very kind, helpful man...what a gem. Ayn did everything possible to accomodate and make us comfortable and at home in what sometimes seems a "foreign country". Clean (loved the walk-in shower!), spacious, supremely equipped, beautiful location...a real find! We are sad to be home :( but are sure to return." - Pam, Ida, MI, 01/03/06 (inquire/book)

"Ayn and Damian have a fabulous home in Isabela. I had the pleasure of staying a week in December. They have everything that you need for a vacation (dishes, spices, games, beach chairs, towels, linens, etc.) The area is breathtaking. We visited numerous beaches, local craft fairs and flea markets on our trip. I would definitely recommend this home for a fabulous vacation. Thanks Ayn and Damian for the experience." - Pam Harbison, Raleigh, IL, 12/30/05 (inquire/book)

"Hi Ayn, Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home in Isabela Puerto Rico! My wife, 2 young daughters, and I were on the island for a vacation / family wedding event in August, and your home was the PERFECT VACATION GETAWAY! Can't say enought good things about Casa de Paraiso... lots of room, cold air conditioning (nice for us gringos), spectacular view from the Master Balconey, and thank you for stocking the house with all the things one could possibly need!!!! (plates, glasses, appliances, towels, beach chairs, DVD in every room, sound system...you name it!). I would highly recommend Casa de Paraiso to anyone visiting the island of Puerto Rico. Great house, great owner to do business with! All the best, Chris Griffin & family Orlando, FL" - Chris Griffin, Orlando, FL, 08/29/05 (inquire/book)

"Hey Ayn & Damian! I grabbed one of your business cards and Damian told me to check out the website. It looks great! I can't wait to go visit! You did a wonderful job with the website and all of the details and all of the little extras that you don't get with other rentals. Since I know the owners personally, I know they made sure that they made this place top of the line and I would recommend this place without even seeing it. Maybe you guys and Brian and I can all fly down together sometime. Mom said that we better not forget her because she wants to go too! Jaime and Brian Davies" - Jaime Davies, Harrisburg, IL, 08/17/05 (inquire/book)
