Jill Mapote
Reservations Coordinator
As the daughter of a hotelier, Jill grew up watching her dad working in the front office for almost 23 years. Her goal was to follow in his footsteps, so she earned a bachelors degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management in 2013 from one of the largest and most pioneering universities in Laguna, Philippines.
Jill launched her career at the Crowne Plaza Manila Galleria and honed her skills as a front-desk officer for five years. Then in 2019, an opportunity came to Jill to study and work in Iceland! Jill’s hospitality experience in Iceland was life-changing and offered her the chance to work and learn from co-workers from all over the world.
Jill transitioned from hotels to vacation rentals in 2020 when she discovered she could use her skill set in hospitality while working remotely, allowing her to be close to her beautiful, 5-year-old daughter, Yuna. The opportunity to work for Walker Luxury Vacation Rentals was truly an answered prayer to Jill. Being one of the first Filipina on the team, she wears it with pride and honor. Jill knows she is with the best team and is looking forward to many more years with WLVR as it continues to grow & be successful!
During her free time, she loves spending time with Yuna and her husband, Jheremie. Sharing meals is one of their favorite ways to bond, and they have fun together eating out, supporting start-up restaurants in their area, and creating home-cooked meals, too. Makeup, perfume, and white chocolate are also some of Jill’s favorite things.
Jill and Jheremie’s dream is to bring their daughter to Disney Land, and are well on their way to making that dream come true!
