I happened to stumble upon the Paradise Villas page while sitting at my desk on a cool, drizzly Seattle December day. I flashed-back to the week I spent with the folks at villas way back in June 1996, after being certified a mere 1 week before. At that time, I lived in Naples, Florida - and going from one tropical paradise to another just seemed like a "vacation." But, the trip could not have blown my mind any more! I swore I would live there one day, but ended up in the completely opposite direction. Funny how things work out that way. Oh well! Paradise Villas: I will return one day - I promise, and thanks for the memories!!! I am spoiled on your walls...nothing (but nothing) compares to ya'll!

Dear Marc,

Once again, many thanks to you, Vinnie, Harold, and Sabine for another wonderful week of diving. The addition of Vinnie and Harold, the great new boat, and the expanded menu and tasty food at the Hungry Iguana, made it an even better experience than our visit last summer! In our fourteen years of diving, (and all of our trips to Palau, Truk, Yap, Australia, the Coral Sea, Fiji, Hawaii, the Sea of Cortez, the Virgin Islands, Bonaire, Curacao, Cozumel, and the Cayman Islands), we've never seen an operation that comes close to you folks when it comes to friendliness, flexibility, and dedication to pleasing your customers. It's also obvious that you guys still love diving. Your air-conditioned villas with kitchens are just perfect for the dive-eat-sleep routine that we seek on Little Cayman.

Keep up the great work. We look forward to our next visit.

What can we say other than WOW...perfect, secluded accommodations...great dining at the Hungry Iguana plus SUPERB day and night diving with an expert staff! I planned 6 days rather than 3 of diving but had to change mid stream after rupturing my appendix and flying to Cayman Brac for surgery...what an experience! To that, I must tell you that I've never met any kinder or more concerned helpful people than the staff at Paradise Divers, especially VINNIE. Through my pain I can remember him telling me to just take it easy and somehow that helped. Thanks to all for a vacation that I won't soon forget and we'll book for next year so I can complete the dives that I missed and thank you all in person.

Hey Marc, Harold, Vinnie, and Sabine --

Back in Seattle now, where it's cloudy, cool, mountainous, and verging on spring, but just barely. Had a wonderful time diving with you guys and, of course, celebrating the feast of San Patricio in style. Hope to see you guys again some day soon.

Hey Marc, Vinny, Harold and to big iguana at the pool....

Thanks so much for everything last weekend. I really enjoyed my first trip to Little Cayman. You all made that trip awesome. Harold...the next time I come down I will dive bloody bay with you guys. Make sure the wind dies down before I get there. Thanks again...see you next yr!!

I told my daughter about signing the guest book and she was upset because I didn't mention Phillip. Phillip is the captain of the dive boat. My daughter, Miranda, did not dive but was on the boat two days and really enjoyed talking to Phillip. He was great and we wanted to make sure he was commended on his fine work. Couldn't have made it without him! Keep it up guys!

We wanted to let everyone know that you guys were the best! We were there on December 26-31 and had a GREAT time! It was my son's first open water dive and it couldn't have been better. Marc was super with him. This was our first trip to Little Cayman but will not be our last. We will be back for more! Paradise Villas was a great place. I would like to keep it a secret but I know it is too good for that. This is the place to relax. Diving, eating and sleeping. What a way to spend the holidays! Sure beats the 15 degree temperature here in Mississippi right now.

If the bosses are reading, you have the best crew working for you at Paradise Villas. You should be proud and know that your place is in the best hands. I don't know what you pay them, but give them a raise. They are Great!

Hello Mitch, Marc, and the rest of the gang!
Just a note to say that I am thinking of you guys, since it is raining up here, cloudy, and generally dingy. A "Mudslide" on the porch of the Hungry Iguana restaurant sounds about perfect. According to Jimmy Buffett, if I see another football game, I will shoot six holes in my freezer!
Anyway...when are you guys supposed to take delivery of the brand new DIVE BOAT! I hear you were unscathed by Hurricane Mitch, and have a nice beach courtesy of the hurricane. I'll see you soon; I hate cold weather, I've lost my tan, and I've been working so hard that I've forgotten to smell the roses before I find myself pushing them up.

Hi Mitchell. Just wanted to tell you and everyone there what a great time we had when we were there at the end of September. The boat trip you arranged to Brac for the day BRAC ATTACK was the best. We had a great time !! We truly enjoyed the peacefullness there and the socializing with everyone associated with Paradise.
TO ANYONE READING THIS TRYING TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOW TO GO....GO !! You wil never regret it. It will be the vacation of a lifetime.

We stayed at Paradise Villas for the first time in mid-September which turned out the greatest time to visit Little Cayman. We found no one was staying at the Villas except us for a while. We were the only the guests lying by the pool with beautiful Janet the Iguana.
Diving was wonderful with real personalized service by Vincent the dive instructor. Thanks to Sabine who provided us all the information we needed through e-mail.
We will surely return to Paradise Villas.
Thanks again for everything.
