"Everything was amazing. I can't even think of anything to do better!"

"Dear Scott, Thank you for sharing Villa La Macha with us. Your web site is great (the best one I've seen). However, there is nothing like seeing it in person for the very first time. Looking out off the front balcony, I knew I was some place very special. Jamie and Cecilia were absolutely fantastic. I can't describe in words what being there with them meant to our family. It seems like Jamie knew everybody in Quepos. Just ask him about anything and he knows the answer. Cecilia after two days knew exactly what we liked to eat and always had it on hand for us. Her guacamole was a huge hit. She started out making it in a small cup but when she saw how much we liked it she started making it by the half gallon always fresh, always unbelievablely good. Villa La Macha is a special place and Jamie and Cecilia made our vacation special. Thank you for sharing your home with us."

"The villa was absolutely beautiful, especially its wonderful views. At first I thought it would be a little bit uncomfortable to have someone cook and clean for us, but I must say that I quickly got over that hurdle! It was great to show up and have a wonderful lunch prepared, and I appreciated a few cooking lessons from Ceci during the week. Perhaps the best part of Ceci and Jota was that they had so much to share about their lives in Costa Rica, which made the trip more special. I enjoyed hanging out with them and learning about their families and backgrounds. The place was amazing, our time at the villa was fabulous, and we thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to stay at La Macha."

"Staff was tremendous. Jamie and Cecilia worked hard and really seemed to enjoy doing so. Food was amazing. The house was beautiful, loved the new floors and decks. Loved the hot tub upstairs, even though I had to chase away the resident frog every morning."

"Jamie and Ceceila made the visit to Villa La Macha so easy for us. Usually when you have only one week in a new area you have just figured out the territory and it's time to go home. Jamie was either at the Villa or just a phone call away. You are very fortunate to have such a trustworthy and capable staff. We hope to return on another vacation.

Jamie and Celia are beyond wonderful. I loved the fabulous sunsets every night, and the periodic appearances of the monkeys and iguanas. The villa also had the best pool we've had so far. We had a wonderful time, and Jamie and Celia really went out of their way to care for our every need and want. I will strongly recommend Villa La Macha to everyone we know."

"We really enjoyed our stay. Jamie is wonderful! He is a real asset. He met our needs above and beyond. He let Cecilia know what we wanted. This was our 2nd stay and we love it. The first time we came with 8 kids. Thank you so much!"

" The improvements made to your home are simply gorgeous. The view from the balcony in the living room is incredible. Some places have an infinity edge swimming pool but now you have an infinity edge living room. Just awesome! Jaime and Cecilia were excellent just as the first time and Greilyn was the perfect babysitter for our infant. Jaime really invested a lot of time to make sure we were very happy. I think he is your greatest asset and I would take him home to work for me if I didn't have any moral ethics. Thanks for a wonderful 2nd time in Villa La Macha."

"The trip was out of this world, really fantastic. i can see why you lived there for a year ---- it might take me that long or longer before being ready to come home!"
