See joyous letter below from a renter describing her stay in Mazatlan.
 
nytimes1920Dear Mary, Mazatlan was WONDERFUL! We loved your house! And the Sea Garden. Gene helped with our bags, pointed out spots like a tour guide on the way to the house and explained how everything worked. We didn't feel like tourists, but like we were living in our own home. It was easy to take the bus, but when we came home late at night we took a taxi for very little. The people could not have been more helpful. We felt safe all of the time. Ali, who worked the Tour Desk at the Sea Garden, helped us with everything..
 
nytimes1920We loved the colonial architecture, Machado Square the outlying villages, the indigenous folk arts and the beach. We watched the big waves rolling in at Sea Garden, wevisited the Mercado near the Cathedral ,the harbor, museums, and a great bakery in Centro nytimes1920Historico. We explored the Casa de la Cultura, the Art Center, the Museo Arquelologico and visited art galleries on the Friday Art Walk, We stopped for margaritas before ending up at the magnificent Pedro & Lola's restaurant and listened to a great jazz group. We attended outdoor fiestas in the Square, shopped for leather bags at the GOLD ZONE, visited the village of MALPICA with its production of plums and mangoes and saw the 1590 Jesuit Mission. We went to the town of CONCORDIA where there is a Festivity with the 1785 Church of San Sebastian, visited Elephant Hill and rural communities, snorkeled, had lunch poolside at Sea Garden and a final celebration meal at the spectacular TOPOLO RESTAURANT in Machado Square. It was Like a dream. Thank you so much for your wonderful house!
