Layne & Margarita
Layne & Margarita
Layne and Margareta both come from Bolder Creek, California, where Layne worked as a computer engineer, while Margarita ran her own restaurant.ย
They shared many passions and interests, so it is no wonder that they got married and stayed that way for 34 years.ย

In 2013 they moved to Cahuita, Costa Rica, where they designed and built their dream home on the top of a hill with a beautiful view of the fishing village and national park below.ย
Tragically, Margarita has departed from this world, but luckily we still have Layne, whos love of nature, animals, and culture continues to inspire us to work hard and make the town we live in, and the world at large, a better place.ย
Layne and Margarita's vision of Heaven awaits you here at Villa Yolo. Their dream is now your paradise.ย
