Meeting new friends....

Last night we were invited to our brokers house El Gran Escape for a birthday BBQ for Joe Mendez the owner of Pearl Realty.

Julie's house is lovely on the south end of the Isla near Punta Sur.  We had a lovely day at the beach yesterday before the BBQ.  I got a tube to float on and it was wonderful! Simple things...


Julie's house is gorgeous! Right on the water with huge pool, four bedrooms, outdoor kitchen, etc. We met some new people, ex-pats that live here full time on Isla and some that live here part time.  The one thing we here over and over from part timers and full timers on Isla is "that it is the best thing they ever did".   "Haven't looked back since", "happier than we have ever been", can't wait to join that group!




We met Colleen on the sunset cruise but last night met here husband Michael who is a chef and prepared an amazing dinner for us. Marinated Filet mignon, polenta with rosemary, grilled zucchini and eggplant, garlic spinach and swiss chard with Julie's potato salad.  It was all wonderful.  We also met Mary Jane and Don from Saskacthewan (spelling)...really nice couple who have a house on Salina Grande.  They kindly offered to take us home in their golf cart and we swung by their house to have a look.  It was lovely right on the water with fabulous views.  We also met Jennifer and Todd from DC who have come here to join Pearl Realty and try Isla for a year...really nice people and a lovely evening!

Julie's house is available for vacation rental at this site:
