Tewfik Atia Customer Feedback | from Montreal, Canada | Hey Carlos, I am back to Santiago since friday. Wanted to say thanks again for all the booking, the references we just had an amazing time. Take care and if ever you plan to go to Montreal, let me know, if I am there it’ll be a pleasure to hang out. I will let you know if I go to Brazil before leaving Santiago I am sure you could arrange some stuff. If not it’ll be in a near future. Cheers, Tewfik

Chris Randolf Customer Feedback

Jan 11 2010
Filed In: Customer Feedback

Chris Randolf Customer Feedback | from Texas, United States | One Note on our experience with Carlos Melia and CM by Carlos Melia. While planning our journey to Chile and Argentina Carlos suggested we also go to Uruguay while in Argentina. He took care of all the details from booking the ferry to accommodations in the town. I urge anyone traveling to Argentina to contact Carlos and have him book this trip..Get him to book you at “La Casa de los Limoneros”. This one was of the best highlights of our trip! This is a truly magical place. The owners are some of the nicest people on the planet and great cooks too I might add. I have never felt more peaceful at any other place in the world. The home is so warm and inviting and the property itself will leave you in amazement. One of the most beautiful places I have ever been. Without Carlos and CM by Carlos Melia. I would have never got to experience this Utopia. I have been all over the world and this is one place that I would go back to again and again.
Thanks again Carlos for the memories!
