Casa Buena is amazing and has a special magic of its own! My trip here was part of my healing journey! I enjoyed the place, being surrounded by fellow artists and my new found friends. Can’t wait to be back!

Thank you so much for putting on a wonderful retreat. I loved that you made me feel like family while still having all the comforts of a gorgeous hotel. The meals were fabulous and the location unbeatable…. What a view!! The art retreat was a great learning experience and I will take what I learned for years to come. Hope to come back!!

It has been such an amazing time here at Casa Buena. The beauty and peacefulness struck me right away. Even the two dogs are peaceful, loving and cuddly! I have learned new techniques and media while in the company of other amazing artists. The experience was uplifting, inspiring and always positive. Thank you so much for all that you have done for us. Keep Casa Buena going!

The Pacific on the West and the jungle to the East. What lies between is peace. Generous hospitality from all, always at our beck and call. Dogs and cats to sooth our souls. We hope we can come for years! Until we meet again!

I have had such an excellent time here! The people and conversation have been so kind, encouraging and warm. I am very glad I got to know you Jane, you inspire me! The other night when I read my poem it felt really life changing. I was uncertain of my talents and purpose in life, and you showed me just how amazing I can be. Poetry and writing is why I am here, you made me realize that. I will never forget you!!
