Had my wife's 40th surprise birthday here. Her whole family came up and there was more than enough room for us all. The house is amazing!!

"Fantastic stay!"
Words can’t explain what a great time we had at Alpenglow! The house was fantastic, well equipped, everything and more from the pictures! The kids loves the bunk room, the adults loved the fire place and hammock and both groups loved the hot tub! Fantastic location! Easily accessible to great trails and mountain village! We will be back!

"Top Notch"
We will be back to stay with Exceptional Stays again. Everything is always top notch and very smooth.

"Delighted that we selected Exceptional Stays as our rental management"
While my wife Shannon and I are new to the rental game. I wanted you to know that we are delighted that we selected Exceptional Stays as our rental management and property management co. The staff we interact with frequently is excellent (Natalie, Meghan, Mac) very professional and very open to our input and questions. We are looking forward to bringing our 2 bedroom (Etta 102) on board post renovations (December ’19). Love seeing all the continued value adds the team is working on (dynamic pricing, new partners, better owner tools, more staff, exploring having renters pay for cleaning).

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
I couldn’t let any more time pass without thanking you directly for all your help in making our stay in Paris so fantastic. There were a lot of variables involved in making this adventure a reality, but finding the right place to stay was probably the most important. We were honestly floundering in a sea of Airbnb-type websites and sterile corporate options when Jolynn had the brilliant idea of reaching out to you. And we are so glad she did! Louvre Penthouse has turned out to be the absolute perfect place for us and it is making our stay here so much more enjoyable than we could have hoped. The apartment itself is beautifuly decorated, perfectly laid out for us, and has most everything we need. The location couldn’t be better, and of course the view is absolutely stunning. It’s a fantastic dream to be able to look out on the Seine and across to the Louvre every morning, every night and anytime in between. Lourdes and Cristina have also helped us greatly with reservations, travel arrangements and other secrets of the city. Indeed, as Jolynn might have mentioned, everything has been so wonderful that we have been working on being able to stay in France through December! We’ll let you know how that goes, but in the meantime, Michelle and I just wanted to thank you so much for all your help and kindness. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

"A Luxurious Experience"
A Summer stay in this wonderful home is a luxurious experience. I’ve stayed here for 2 summers, and enjoyed the location tremendously. It is right in the heart of Telluride and walking distance to shops, restaurants, and activities. Each day, I walked with my children from this home to the Ah Haa School for the Arts along the beautiful Telluride river walk. We loved being able to park our car and forget about it for days! The free gondola to the Mountain Village is just around the corner from this home, and it runs all summer long with access to mountain activities for kids and grown-ups. The open-air porch, with views of the surrounding mountains, is a beautiful place to relax after a hike, have a glass of wine, and catch up with friends. The main level allows for easy entertaining with plentiful seating, and the kitchen is well appointed. This home is great for a family gathering! My kids enjoyed the lower level game room with a big screen TV and comfy L-shaped sofa. They also loved the sturdy bunk bed room, where they hung a blanket and played in their “fort”. I loved the home's easy functionality and its sophisticated decor! If you are looking for a place to stay where kids and parents can enjoy the same vacation, this home is the place. You will want to return here every year!

"Simply Stunning"
This condo is simply stunning! Skiside at Sundance! Located right on the slopes of Telluride, you can walk out your front door and ski downhill! Highly recommend to families or couples, hot tub off master suite is so relaxing and the steam shower is pure luxury!

"Fantastic Management Partners"
THE BEST place I have ever rented. Great for a group, a couple of families, or whomever. Just a fantastic home in a fantastic location supported by fantastic management partners. I have rented several places over the years and have never been more impressed with a home, the amenities, conveniences of the entire experience.

"Thank You Telluride Team for the New Bookings"
We really appreciate the push to get it booked up-especially for those tougher weeks like the early January week!! You work does not go unnoticed and just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!

"Great location - Great space"
We used the home as "base camp" for the Blues and Brews Festival. Lots of kitchen "stuff" - very comfortable and clean.

"Amazing Villa - Exceptional Staff"
We just returned from a stay at Villa Pacifica. The house is beautiful and spacious, plenty of room for 8 adults and 1 child. Every meal and drink was delicious. The house, pool, beach, and food are enough to make us return, but the property’s biggest asset is Efren, the House Manager (and Bartender extraordinaire). He is AMAZING and his exceptional care made it difficult to leave. He is so sweet and saw to our every need. We all wanted to bring him home with us. If we asked for something they didn’t have at the house, it magically appeared within “2 Mexican Minutes”. He also has extensive knowledge of the Punta Mita area and was a huge help as we looked at wedding venues. There's really no need to ever leave the house. There are paddle boards and kayaks to use at the beach. Hector arranged several activities for us to enjoy right on the property, including jet skis, a horseback ride on the beach, and beachside massages. Lupita, the chef, prepared meals that were so good we never wanted to eat out.

"Staff Made Us Feel Like Royalty"
This was our tenth annual girls' trip to Mexico, but our first time to Tulum. Having visited Cabo San Lucas for nine years in a row and loving it, we weren't sure if Tulum would live up to our expectations.....boy were we WRONG! Casa Cantarena was the perfect choice for our getaway. We were hoping for a beautiful house on a secluded stretch of beach where we could lounge on the sand and splash in the waves and Casa Cantarena provided exactly that. What made our experience even more unforgettable was the lovely staff and the way they made us feel like royalty. Every meal was more delicious than the next and George always seemed to know exactly when to bring out another round of Pina Coladas or chips and freshly-made guacamole. If you are looking for the ultimate luxurious escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, you will not be disappointed with Casa Cantarena

"Convenient Location"
Meghan couldn't have been nicer to work with when we needed a place at the last minute - to the extent of taking care of our reservations from the airport! This condo is very well decorated and feels bigger than the stated 800sf. The location could not have been more convenient for our purposes - the park for festival and great downtown restaurants. Why look any further - we plan on staying here from now on!

"Unforgettable!"
Thanks very much for an unforgettable stay. The warmth and attention to detail of the entire staff, led by Soi, really makes the difference in this place. The chef is top notch by any standard (I lived in NY for 10 years and compares to the top of any top restaurant there), and Marcelino kept bringing the Margaritas non-stop, as well as the goodies for all the children. Rancho 9 is a beautiful property (much nicer than as depicted in the pictures) and it is maintained impeccably. Punta Mita is a paradise.
- My entire family (of 20) enjoyed our stay very much. Thanks again

"Superb property, highly professional staff, spectacular location"
We stayed at Ranchos 9 with a large group of family and friends in November, 2010. We have had the pleasure of renting high end homes throughout the world and this house – run by a highly competent and lovely woman named Soi – is in the top two or three. Soi and her staff are all Four Seasons trained – including the chef who is exceptional. The food is delicious and they can cook whatever you like. Not only are the staff efficient, organised & perfectionists – they are lovely people as well. Our every whim was expertly catered to – from special Vegan meals for some to private yoga lessons, fishing trips, shopping excursions, trips to the gym for others. They even put on a beautifully catered, lively Mexican themed party – set beside the ocean with a ten piece Mariachi band. The web site does not do the property justice. Unlike many sites that manage to have the properties look larger or more colorful than they really are thanks to clever photographic editing, the opposite is true here. The home is far more spectacular in person than is represented online. The architecture of the home is both beautiful and understated. While the home is very large it is at the same time comfortable and relaxing. They have managed to combine extraordinary luxury & top flight service in a relaxed, cozy setting that is very private while being respectful of its surrounding environment. We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend the home to others.

"The Ultimate Luxury Vacation!"
The minute I arrived to Rancho 9 I was speechless.. I felt like I had walked in to the most luxuries property in the whole Pacific coast! The Palapa great room is impeccably decorated and the views are enormous.. Sitting in this indoor/outdoor living room watching the ocean and birds was ZEN. The bedrooms are large, bright and beautiful. The bathrooms are pure luxury!
To top of the best home I have ever seen the service, food, drinks where better than if we had stayed at the Four Seasons.
- This is Nirvana, for sure one of the best ultra luxury beach properties in the world.
Rancho 9
"Perfect all the way around!"
The property, the food, the staff- it doesn't get any better! The house was just a gorgeous setting and was very comfortable for the 8 of us. It was so fabulous we hated to leave the house and only left to play golf at the Four Seasons and visit a quaint and fun tequila distillery.
We have been to many beautiful spots around the world but it was the staff and their attentive nature to ensure we were always happy and comfortable that made this particular vacation stand out! Luis, Efren and alma are the gold standard. Please be sure to let them know how they made our trip the best family vacation ever! The only down side is we all gained weight as the food was so amazing!

"Absolute Perfection"
We had an amazing time. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by Villa Pacifica. ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. I can’t say enough about the grounds, the staff & the level of service provided throughout our stay. Efren & Lupita treated our family like royalty. They were warm & welcoming, professional, & extremely resourceful. I credit the two of them for making our vacation one that we will never forget. We will definitely be back.
– We had a minor accident the day after our arrival. My nephew slipped & fell, & we were concerned about a possible concussion. Within minutes after the fall, Efren had a doctor at the Villa to address the situation. Impressive…to say the least. We were still a little concerned the next morning, so Efren volunteered to drive us to the hospital to have a precautionary CT Scan. The scan came back clear, so we were able to relax again & enjoy the remainder of stay. Again,we were blown way by Efren!
– We will be back sometime next spring or summer. (& hopefully every year after that!)
