“Where do I start?!? How do we thank you?!?

We had a wonderful time on our trip. Hawaii was spectacular in every way. You send us to the the most beautiful resorts with the friendliest people.

Turtle Bay was fantastic! We felt so comfortable and enjoyed the amenities so much. Landon specifically enjoyed the pool and water slide. He spent HOURS on that water slide. My dad and Josh enjoyed zip lining and and UTV riding at the Kualoa Ranch! That was a highlight of the trip for them. I personally enjoyed the Fitness Center and the Peloton bike! The view from the Peloton was amazing! I was able to watch the surfers during my ride! Does it get much better?!?!? We loved Oahu too! We enjoyed touring the island and eating with the locals. We also enjoyed kayaking with the Sea Turtles.

Just when we thought we were in Heaven… you sent us to Maui! Maui was unbelievable. It is a gorgeous island! We LOVED the Fairmont! The resort is truly heavenly. Landon loved the pool and the waterside even more than Turtle Bay. He’s only 4! We don’t know how we will ever top this resort! My dad and Josh enjoyed UTV riding here too! The road to Hana was fun! We downloaded an app that took us to some of the most beautiful sites. The running path at the Fairmont along the water was a highlight for me. Passing the resorts on one side and the water on the other made my morning runs spectacular!

Thank you also for all the special touches you put into our trip. The delicious treats and wine in San Francisco were a great surprise! Being greeted with Lei’s at the airport in Oahu was so special and much appreciated! And… the special treats at the Fairmont, including the special chocolate brownies and gummy worms for Landon were over the top special!

Thank you for including breakfast at all the resorts! Josh and my dad loved starting their day with a good breakfast which made my day even better! Hungry men are never easy to travel with! LOL

We also greatly appreciated your itinerary! It was easy to follow! You truly know how to plan a fun and exciting trip! Thank you for that!

We are already starting to think about next summer! We definitely want to plan something again but we don’t know how you will top this vacation! It was PERFECT!!!

Thank you so much for all you did to make our vacation so memorable.
We will never forget this trip!

I hope you are having a wonderful summer!!

Sincerely,”

“The trip was fantastic! We loved it so much. It was the perfect balance between city travel and tropical/island travel. THANK YOU so much for the beautiful bottles of prosecco/champagne you sent to the rooms! That was so generous of you. We really appreciated being able to relax with a glass of bubbles on our arrival. 🙂

As for feedback, here’s what we thought:

Charleston
Zero George was a standout. The room was perfect and exactly the historic setting we were looking for. Great attention to detail for atmosphere, etc. I would highly recommend it. The restaurant tasting menu was some the best food and wine we’ve ever had. We also went to the cooking class they offered with the chef and had a beautiful 3 course lunch as well. The included daily breakfast was a cut above as well.

NYC
1hotel was the absolute perfect location for us. We used the subway stop next to the hotel all day long. It was so easy and a huge selling point for this city visit. The room was really comfortable and had a nice vibe. The restaurant was terrific. I was really happy with the menu options for lunch/breakfast. (we didn’t get there for dinner because of the timing of the shows) The food was also a cut above. I also really liked the decor.

Barbados
The House – perfect location on the island. I never felt like anything was too far away. The beach was really pretty and quiet. It was also right next door to the property’s shared water toys and water taxi, so that was really convenient. (full disclosure, we didn’t have time to use the water toys, but if we did it would have been really great!) The sand/water was really clean and lovely. We spend our last day there just lying on the beach and floating in the water. It was great. I know you said the food might not amazing, but we were really happy! The breakfast/lunch options exceeded expectation. The Daphne’s (connected to the hotel) was a really solid italian place with excellent service. We also had stellar dinners at Tides (our favorite) and The Lone Star. It was definitely way more of a food scene there than I expected. The room was lovely, gorgeous view. The bathroom kind of needed an update.

St. Lucia
Anse Chastenet was really cool. It was really beautiful to be tucked up on the cliffs in the jungle. Amazing views. Excellent suggestion to put us in a beach front room. That was great to be so close to the water, since that was our main focus for 3 days – sitting on the beach. It would have been exhausting going up and down those stairs all day. We were happy to trade a room view for convenience, since we were dining in the up stairs area for breakfast and dinners. So we had plenty of opportunity for taking in the views.

Overall, I would say that this place was a little more rustic than we expected. We had great time, but I kinda of feel like the whole property needs some updating. We kept losing power on and off throughout the stay. Once during the night and it got uncomfortable to sleep with out AC. And during the day and we weren’t able to order blended drinks and certain menu items because the kitchen didn’t have power. That was kind of a bummer. The food was delish, we loved that they have an entire vegan menu option for dinner. That was refreshing. The snorkeling on the beach was awesome, some of the best we’ve seen and so great that it was right in front of the hotel.

We had such a great time. Thank you so much for planning this for us! Let me know if you have anything else you are curious about/questions. Happy to discuss.

Thanks again!”

“We had the best time in Thailand and your planning of activities and lodging were seamless and exactly what we were looking for. Bangkok was overwhelming but felt so much more approachable our second time around, and Chiang Mai was by far our favorite. The beach, too, was beautiful. We had a massage at the resort and a fancy meal on the beach on our last night. Thank you for putting together such a memorable trip.”

Hoping we get to work with you again in the near future,

“We have just returned from Mozambique after 24 hours of travel. Thank you so much for organizing all that, it was fantastic! The Four Seasons in Johannesburg and the Sentidos resort were both outstanding choices, we were very happy with them. The service was great at both places and the accommodations very comfortable.

The diving in Mozambique was slightly disappointing, however, not because there wasn’t a lot to see (there was SO much marine life everywhere!) but because of the poor conditions: huge swells almost every day making 45-minute boat trips in a rib from dive site to dive site not very comfortable, and poor visibility making diving itself a bit frustrating. (We decided to forgo Freediving altogether after the second attempt because you couldn’t see anything from the surface.)

That being said, the entire trip was worth it, if nothing else, then for the fact that we had three days of whale shark encounters where we got to swim right next to a whale shark, and that’s something I’ve wanted to do my entire life.

We had wanted to try surfing as well but were just too exhausted after being up at 6 every day to go diving that we would often come back to the resort after diving followed by a late lunch and just spend the rest of the afternoon relaxing and going through the day’s videos/photos.

If you ever do send other guests to Mozambique in the future, I highly recommend having them stay at Sentidos (not Too de Mar, we walked past it every day and it looked cheap) and having dinner at the Green Turtle (a restaurant run by a French woman close to Sentidos). We spent our last evening there and had the most delicious seafood.

Again, thank you for all your help in organizing this trip!”

All the best,

Christina

“Hi Sharon…Just wanted you to know we have made it to Santorini! We loved Athens and Crete… each with its own unique culture and beauty. We are sitting on our veranda here in our third vacation destination and Loving it!! We so appreciate your efforts to ensure we would have fabulous memories. After resting a bit we will venture out for a late lunch. This view is the most incredible of all… as you suggested a great way to end our stay!

Thanks so much for the loving greeting messages, wine, and fruit at each location. Your caring manner and attention to details are greatly appreciated!

Big Hugs!❤️”

“We are having a Fabulous vacation… We are now on the final leg as we just arrived at the Ilala Lodge. Each lodging has been exceptional in their accommodations and customer service, from the Saxon, Sabi Sabi Camp, and Kensington Place to here. Each has its own charm and picturesque views. We are sitting on the veranda here at Ilala about to enjoy a late lunch before embarking on our sunset river cruise…. Loving it All! You have scored 100+ in your planning.😊😊😊

THANKS also for letting everyone know we are still celebrating our 20th! Rose petals, candles, and sweet treats galore!

Thanks for all of your Hard Work in association with Cox and Kings and Wilderness Tours… It has certainly paid off!!”

“We had a GREAT trip. Every hotel or B&B booked for us was perfect. The Rabbies tour in Edinburgh, the Bath and Oxford walking tour were fantastic. All the drivers were safe drivers, punctual and familiar with the area. The trains were so EASY to take. I could print all the tickets at one time, but I chose to print when I arrived at the station.

Often strangers that we meet on a trip will ask who arranges our trip. We do give your name as our travel consultant. I reluctantly give your name because I want to keep you all to MYSELF.

Thank you again!”
