"As a business owner of my own I know how difficult it is to find the right people. You are to be commended for your vision in getting the right people to manage your villa. Zoe in my opinion with the staff that she has assembled without a doubt is what made our experience what it was. High end villa's like the Bird of Paradise are few and far between. You and your husband are extremely fortunate people to have all of them. They are without a doubt what sets Bird of Paradise above the rest. Again just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity to have stayed at the Bird of Paradise."
