A
message to past and future guests from
Arlaine
Cervantes
Owner
- Innkeeper
LA CASA
MEXICANA INN
Guests
have found many original ways to express their appreciation
over the years but none have been more rewarding than
the messages left in our guest book. I have often been
deeply 'touched' by their words but realize it is I
who must be most thankful; not just for their
patronage but for the gift of our guest book. One day,
when I am warmly-nestled by the fire and reflecting
on how my life was spent, I'll read again the heart-felt
comments from all the marvelous people who found
their way to our door and I will smile and feel warmed
and gifted again and again.
'Mil
gracias' (one thousand thank you's) for the gifts
you left behind in my guest book. I feel richly-rewarded
in unanticipated ways because our paths crossed, once
upon a time, in La Paz...
Arlaine

"I think
I could sit at this table and stare out onto the bay forever!
It is so peaceful and relaxing here; your wonderful hospitality
made it all that much more enjoyable. Thank you for making
me feel so comfortable, so at home!" Katherine
Dodgeon
"…your
Inn has now set the standard for all my future travels.
I’ll return." John Aguilar
"Life
is a lottery and we won when we found your delightful
hideaway." Linda and Keith
Murdock
"Somehow,
"thank-you" does not fully express how we feel
about our time here in your lovely inn. You have been
most gracious and helpful and we are blessed to have found
you." Judy and Jack
"Arlaine,
La Casa Mexicana was more – much more – than we
ever hoped for here. (One thing: the amable duena
is not featured on the web site!) Your tasteful blending
of what might be called the "best of both cultures"
has given us memories to last a lifetime." Robert
and Charlotte Schlack
"Staying
with you was the perfect starting and ending point for
our seven day kayak trip. What a joy it was to return
to the fantastic ‘Scheherazade’ room – so beautiful, relaxing
and perfectly civilized!" Lincoln
and Dardenelle
"Loved
it!. Loved the view! Loved the carrot cake! Loved the
movies! Love it ALL!" Devon
and Ebenezer
"Arlaine,
What an oasis your place is – good for the soul."
Hilda and Dolores
"…to
be added to my list (and it’s a short list!) of wonderful
places – I’ll be back next year…" John
Nicholl
"My stay
in your home was "perfecto". I had the best
view of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. Thank
you." Pat Hize
"It was
all I expected and a whole lot more. You are a delightful
hostess…" Chris Wagner
"What
a delight! This wonderful inn has been a haven in the
storm -- so relaxing, so hospitable! I’m so very thankful
we found our way here." Dennis
and Kim Eames
"Your
home is a paradise away from the hustle-bustle world.
The colors to sooth your senses and soul. Our room was
a romantic dream-come-true for me and your talent and
joy shines through in every piece of art." Thank you for
your warm hospitality." Casey
and Denney
"Thank
you so much for the hospitality and the atmosphere that
comes natural from your personality! Everything is so
wonderful! Plan to see you again soon!" Doug
and Michelle
"What
a treasure "casa" in the heart of La Paz!"
Ophelia and Chris
"3 nights
passed in 3 minutes! Hopefully, my pictures captured your
decorating creativity… awesome, and La Paz is truly "the
peace". Thanks – you’re definitely 6 Star!"
