I loved getting to know your staff. It sounds like you created something very special at this hotel.

What a fabulous crew you guys had, Marlo! I can't even say who I think is the best b/c they are all totally awesome! I so loved David's special desert! Simply amazing! You must have been blown away. I love nicknames and love the name "Flaco." In Mexican Spanish it also means a boyfriend or girlfriend, have no idea why!?! Weird. Wow, these people were priceless, and so glad you are still in touch w. them.

Thanks Jeanine! We had a great group-always, even in staff who left for whatever reason. That's super interesting that in Mexico Flaco or Flaca means boyfriend or girlfriend! haha

We are in touch with many, and we were just invited 'back' by the new owners for a visit this coming February, so we are excited to see them again!

It was heartbreaking to leave. I wrote about it a little here if you missed it!
