Fiji Holiday

Hello Lori,

...and a late Merry Christmas. We had a blast, Vatulele has to be the most beautiful place we have seen, complete perfection!! Thanks so much for your help it was really appreciated.

Once again thanks, we know now that if we go back to Hawaii or anywhere in the Pacific Ocean, we will call you first. The trip was so worth every dollar. We even meet a couple from Australia who booked through your company, they were in the Bure next to ours.

Happy New Year

Aloha,

Happy Holidays in Fiji

Lori,

Good evening. The trip was amazing. It was very relaxing, and the calm atmosphere was just what we needed.

I thought the flight in was great, it really let's you see part of the island that you wouldn't see from the coast. We were also glad to have taken a car on our return trip, it gave us an interesting view of the villages and locals. We had an Indian driver that was very knowledgeable.

The resort was great, we had Thanksgiving dinner with the GM and the owner who were both gracious. They asked us how we had heard about the resort and we told them your name. They were very aware of the number of guest you send them.

The resort itself was great, the rooms were very clean and nice, and the plunge pools really made the place fantastic. The employees were extremely nice and that added touch made our stay even more enjoyable.

From an activity stand point, we did everything we could, my daughter went zip lining and I did the shark dive. All 3 of us went out to the resort owned island for a day of snorkeling. My wife and I saw a 6 ft reef shark swim under us, right before we had our grilled lobster and chicken lunch.

If there was any negative feed back we had, it would be the snorkeling right off the beach of the resort and the water quality. We didn't know that most of the rivers are polluted on the main island and that most of the reef is dead on the coast. The only other item that was unexpected was the set up at the resort. It seemed like the resort wasn't really sure what it wanted to be, a resort or property development company. While we very much enjoyed the resort, it seemed as if the owner had changed their direction and wanted to sell the property rather then focus on the "Resort experience". The only down side here was that the food was somewhat average.

We made some great friends, but we don't know if the resort will be there in the next few years to return.

My family and I agree that we would go back to Fiji again, but we would want to stay on an island with a lot a reef around it that we could just walk into the water and snorkel for hours. I'm sure there are a lot of resorts like this, in fact if I recall you recommended we try two places....my bad! :)

We are already starting to plan our next trip, I enjoyed working with you and hopefully you can help us on our next adventure.

I think you can sum up what we are looking for in two things, a really nice resort with great food, and untouched reefs that are warm and thriving with life that can be accessed right in front of the resort.

Thanks again for all of your advice, the resort over all was great and very cost effective.

I believe you also specialize in Tahiti, please feel free to send me any recommendations you might have.

Have a great holiday!!!

Hawaii Blessings

Auntie Tish,
We just arrived back in Southern California from Kihei. I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for ALL your help and your kindness. The volcano bike ride & the Blue Water Raft snorkeling were among our favorite adventures! It truly was one of the best weeks our family has ever had & it was incredible being able to handle EVERYTHING through you!
You made everything better with your great attitude. May the Lord shower your life with blessings as you continue to bless others! We will be back in 2010 and we WILL see you again!!!

Hawaii Holiday

Hi Melissa,

We had a great time in Hawaii! We were in Honolulu for two days and visited Pearl Harbour. The tour was very interesting and enjoyable. We then traveled to Kaua'i for five days and loved it! Everything was so BEAUTIFUL! I never knew there were so many different shades of green! We took a helicopter tour with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. The views were awesome! It was a little rainy that day, but overall it was very nice. The Resort was our favorite part of our trip. We upgraded to an ocean view room and were so glad we did. The beach was just steps away from our room. We attended the luau there and loved every bit of it. The food and entertainment were both excellent.

We flew American Airlines. I guess the worst part was the return flight. We had two connections coming home and it was a very long day for us. We left Lihue at 10:00 PM and finally got home to Amarillo, Texas by 2:30 PM the next day. We would have loved a direct flight to Dallas and then just that short flight to Amarillo. That would have been so much better. Also, we had to pay for in-flight food. It was expensive and really not very good.

Anyway, thanks for an amazing trip! (Hiapo and Melissa were both very helpful with arrangements.)
We are so glad that we used McCoy Travel. Everything went very smoothly for us.

Sincerely,
K. Finley

Australia Vacation Bliss

Hi Melissa & Faye,

We had a wonderful time, everything worked out perfectly. I thought the Sydney Harbor hotel was in the perfect location for getting to the Circle Quay/Harbor and downtown events. The concierge was very helpful and the view of the Opera House was memorable. We took a trip to the Blue Mountains and had a great time. The bus tour was fun and the Bridge Climb is a "must do" in Sydney. Wildfire Restaurant in The Rocks was great and the The Quay Seafood Chinese Restaurant was surprisingly good.

In Cairns we took the Poseidon reef trip and I highly recommend it. The hotel there was great. We did have to hassle for king size beds. But it only took an hour and we ate while we waited so no big deal. We marveled at Fox Bats that landed in the hotel's trees, flipped upside down and crawled up and down the branches.
The Gold Coast is unrivalled. I have spent a lot of time at Destin, Florida and Gulf Shores, Alabama and though these were huge beach developments but they have nothing on the Gold Coast. The hotel there and the Ocean Premium Rooms were the best of the best.

Overall were would not change anything and the weather was wonderful. Australia is a fantastic place to visit.
Two recommendations. Consider having breakfast included in all room reservations. Breakfast is expensive in AU. We had the 45 dollar buffet included in the room charge at one hotel which was a good idea. Overall we would make no changes, had a great time, and highly recommend your service. My mom and her brother are traveling to AU and New Zealand in January. I will give you her contact info.

Thanks,

Beautiful Fiji

Hi Hiapo!

I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for the wonderful experience we had in Fiji with your arrangements. The Hotel was beautiful, all the pickups and transfers went perfectly and everyone was so helpful. Let's say my husband was very surprised because we had a lot of transferring and moving around to do.

We love Fiji - I fell in love with Naigani Island and we will definitely return. If someone is looking for the more primitive "Gilligan Island" style of Fiji, enjoys meeting people and making friends and wants a truly special experience meeting the Chief and people of the village - this is the place for them. And I must say, I really got into the whole Kava thing! :o)

The Extra bonus was we were the only divers so everyday was just us and the dive master - perfect!

Thank you so much for helping to make our experience stress free and well organized. I am so glad I found you!

I will be in touch when we get ready to return!

Happy Thanksgiving
wishing you a wonderful holiday season

Fiji Weddingmoon

Dear Melissa,

Wow, what can we say, but all wonderful things of our recent trip to Fiji.
Mike booked us a fabulous Weddingmoon at two properties, and everything went extremely well. From Air/ground/water transport to the 2 week stay at both Lovely Resorts. What was there not to love about Fiji?

The First Resort was amazing: They were there to collect us when we landed in Taveuni (no waiting) and took us straight away to the water transport. Sia was there to greet us when we arrived and she did an incredible job with the orientation, and our wedding arrangements. We would definitely consider another visit there. The staff were all wonderful!

The second Resort: We had a wonderful up-grade to a Premium Vale, and what an incredible place to snorkel and spend our week honeymooning. We were both very sad to leave.

We haven't used the services of a travel agency in a very long time (generally book our own travels via Internet), but since this was such a special occasion, we decided to go the Fiji Experts: McCoy Travel. All booking arrangements were spot on. All email correspondence was answered very quickly and in a timely fashion. Mike did a fabulous job providing us with several resort options and choices, and the before and after the trip follow-up has been tremendous.

We have both worked in the service/travel industry, and McCoy gets top ratings from us!

Kind regards,

Fiji Honeymoon

Hi Faye,

We had an absolutely beautiful wedding and honeymoon in Fiji.

The day was perfect, made only more special by all the dramas with customs... and the staff in Fiji were fabulous having got to know us pretty well and what we were going through by the big day! I managed to hold back the tears and we got some stunning photographs, and the day was over all too quickly!! We then spent a couple of weeks cruising around the Yasawa Islands which was amazing. I'm sure we will return to Fiji one day, a good excuse to celebrate an anniversary out there!!!

So we've been in NZ almost 2 months now and we love it here. We've been north to Cape Reinga, and south to Waitomo, Taupo (where I did a bungy jump, excellent fun but never again!!) and now we are in Hawkes Bay which is really lovely, and warming up a lot now for summer!! We are going to Australia for xmas to meet my family in Perth, and when we return to NZ in January we are planning to head straight down to the South Island and look for work. We just got tickets to see Billy Connolly in Queenstown in February so we're quite excited about that!!

It's lovely to hear from you, I also enjoyed your email about your trip to Oz and the picture of you and your daughter on top of the Sydney Harbour bridge.

Take care,

Fiji trip of a Lifetime

Fabulous Fiji

Bula Faye,

Sorry about not replying sooner but as you know we did elope to Fiji and it has been quite a ride since arriving back home and revealing the news to family and friends!

Well where do I start? Firstly I have to thank you once again for everything you managed to organize for us in the short time given. Your service, communication and just you in general was fantastic!

We did not know what to expect when we arrived in Fiji, being a country we had not visited before, but everything could not have been better! The arrival greeting by Rosies Travel service was a nice touch and truly made us feel special just stepping off the plane. The day room organized at Gateway Hotel for us was also great, the perfect touch after a flight, it allowed us to catch up on some sleep and also freshen up before our trip to Qamea resort. The Gateway Hotel also had beautiful garden views.

We were greeted first by Sia as we got off the light plane in Tavueni. She greeted us with open arms and Melissa straight away took to her. By the end of the trip she was Mama Sia! The trip to the boat was very colourful as well, looking out seeing the locals and seeing a different culture was fun. I have never in my life met such nice people! Everyone was always smiling and never ever too busy to stop for a chat or to give advice.

Now Qamea, well firstly there is no place like it in the whole world. This beautiful Island was the perfect setting for us to begin our new life together. The spectacular forest and exquisite gardens and beaches was exactly the place where we wanted to tie the knot. The beautiful bures that we stayed in were awesome. It gave a nice touch of traditional housing with all the modern creature comforts. And the service by all staff was fantastic. Everyone remembers your name and always greets you, it made the whole trip that more special. Also Qamea offered so many activities, from snorkeling, to Island hikes, scuba diving, kayaking, canoeing, the beautiful tree house spa was also so relaxing and everything was first class!
There were a lot of great people that we met on our trip, but there is always the few that manage to stand out. Firstly Mama Sia, the perfect wedding planner and just a lovely person with a great outlook in life. Nita and William the two brothers, Nita with his great nature and music skills was a delight to hang out with. And William well knows how to make the perfect drink and has a great sense of humor. A wonderful character and a great person to talk to and hang out with.
Next there was the band, hanging out every night listening to the tunes and songs all night was the perfect setting for us. We had managed to get quite close with the boys as well. Drinking Kava all night and even getting some lessons in playing instruments too!

Then came our special day, the day we became one and let me tell what a day it was. Staff arrived early at our bure and started dressing it up with wonderful flowers and plant leaves, it just looked awesome. I was kicked out of the bure so Melissa could get ready. So I ended up hanging out at the Chiefs Bure waiting for my bride to be to arrive. The other guests were around as we had befriended a few other couples during our stay, and were also getting excited and keeping my nerves down too.
Then came the moment, I was standing beneath two beautiful palm trees that had grown into a heart shape, with the Pacific behind me and soft waves crashing up against the shore. Then came Melissa and the warriors. She was carried in on a traditional Fijian Chair and her smile was breathtaking. The flower girl was the cutest little girl I saw on the whole Island too, as she lay flowers in front of the warriors as they carried Melissa towards me.
The entire ceremony was great, from William, who was the official camera man, Mama Sia our Photographer, and the other staff running around to ensure the day went as smooth as. To the band playing tunes during the ceremony, to the village choir singing in the background, everything was just perfect.
The rest of the day was spent sipping champagne and watching the awesome shows that were for us. The warriors doing the special Kava ceremony and then the village turning up and showing us the various Fijian traditions, songs and dances. It was more than we could have ever expected.

I could go on forever writing about our Fijian experience and what a wonderful trip it was. Though I don't want to give away too much as whoever gets to read this will have an experience they will never forget!

Once again Faye, thank you, thank you so much, if it wasn't for you none of this would have ever happened.

Thanks Fays, and thanks McCoy Travel.

Kind Regards,

Novak Ignjic

Fiji-licious Honeymoon

Hi Mike,

Just writing a quick note to say our honeymoon in Fiji was Fiji-licious! Everything was great. We loved the Resort so much! The second one was nice too but after the first, there was no comparison.

I'll send some pictures soon. I have been swamped since I got back. All the people who couldn't make to the wedding want to see us now :)

Thanks so much for everything! I'll be in touch soon and tell you the great stuff we did.

Wonderful Kauai

Aloha Melissa & Tish,
I've been meaning to write to express how wonderful our vacation experience in Kauai was. We most enjoyed the helicopter tour with Island Helicopters - it is a must see, the Zip Lining tour - despite my initial fear of ziplining, the experience was one I will carry with me forever and the Horseback ride at the Princeville Ranch - we were able to swim near a waterfall and actually slide down the rocks of the fall - that was unreal and utterly beautiful. Everything turned out beautifully and we will surely use your agency again for our future travel plans. Thank You!

Best Maui Vacation

Aloha Michael,

Yes, getting back into the swing of things out here was no easy task—I'm still trying to find my desk at work….
We had the absolute BEST vacation we ever had in Maui. Really, I cannot say enough about your beautiful island---and Brenda had us all set up with great activities, we were busy-but not too busy. It was just perfect.
What a great Hotel! So pretty there, and everyone was really helpful and friendly. I have nothing 'not so good' to say---only great things.
It was really sweet of you to leave a card and gift for Jimmy's birthday-he thought that was great.
It has been nothing but a pleasure working with you---thank you so much for all of your assistance, you really helped us plan the trip of a lifetime. I only hope that you'll be hearing from me again soon (well, probably not TOO soon) to book another trip!! We can't wait to go back!!
Thank you also for recommending Brenda to us-we both really loved her and her ideas and suggestions…talk about helpful—she's the best!
We really did make some memories that will last us a lifetime…well, they'll last at least as long as it takes us to get back there!

Mahalo!!

to Fiji from France

Bula Mark,
The trip has been exactly what I expected….and the surprise was a full one for Laure, she enjoyed a lot each day, each moment and the Fiji area is wonderful - a small paradise in nowhere!!
The 2 resorts were more than great and the selection was the right one for the 2 weeks we spent over there.

On both service level, food quality level (special thanks to Lye, the Chef, who surprised us in terms of cooking and creativity!!!) and team site level were absolutely perfect.

Except for a little rain; for which you can do nothing, all was absolutely perfect.
I must congratulate you for your follow-up during the preparation since the beginning and all your recommendations. Thanks for your professionalism and I will recommend your contact for any far away trip like Fiji.

Vinaka!

Hawaiian Vacation

Lori,

Here are the pictures I promised to send from my Hawaiian vacation. It truly was my dream vacation and I so appreciate your help in arranging it. Since I had never used a travel agent before, I wasn't sure what to expect. Although I loved doing the research for my vacation, I was so happy to turn over organizing the details to you. When Aloha Air went out of business prior to my trip and when after arriving in Maui I decided I wanted to change hotels, is when you prove to be the most invaluable. I didn't have to fret or worry about these changes as I knew I was in good hands.

My niece and I will always remember our trip to Hawaii with fond memories. Thanks again for your part in making my dream a reality.

Thanks,

New Zealand and Tahiti Vacation

Hello Faye!

Well the entire trip was an absolute success and I really must thank you for all your help. I must say that we are infatuated with New Zealand and cannot wait to return. We just loved the country, the people, the scenery, the food...everything. And the Four Seasons is...just absolutely spectacular. We were just blown away as the facilities are top notch, the service is flawless and the setting cannot be beat.

Hawaii Vacation

Hello Melissa!

I was just telling Robin about our feed back. We had a great time in Fiji and we loved the trip that she booked for us. I think Robin did a fantastic job of listening to what we wanted out of our Honeymoon. We think the Resort we stayed at is over the top... we give it our highest recommendation and are encouraging our friends to consider it.

We look forward to working with McCoy again in the future. Robin did a great job of really listening to our wants and desires for the trip and everything she set up was superb. We don't think there was probably any way for her to know how poor Lomani was or I don't think she'd book us there.

Thanks for checking in on us!

Amazing Maui

Aloha Sue,

So nice of you to check in! Jason and I had an amazing time in Maui - the accommodations at the Fairmont Kea Lani were wonderful (we LOVED our oceanfront suite, the grounds were beautiful and the breakfast buffet was awesome!), the soft-top Jeep was essential (had such a great time cruising around in that car!) and the flights went off without a hitch! Overall, the entire vacation exceeded any/all expectations - we had such a great time doing everything from zip lining to snorkeling to hiking to biking Mt. Haleakala to laying out on the beach in Pa'ia. Thank you so much for your assistance in helping us plan the honeymoon of our dreams!

Maui

Hi Melissa
Sue, once again, was very helpful on setting up our trip.

On Maui, the Mendez Ranch is MUCH better for horseback riding.
Polynesian bus tours is a much better way to see the island and learn, compared to driving.
The Maui Resort was up to par.

All in all our trip went well!

Hawaiian Island Hopping

Hi Faye,

Just thought I would give you some feedback on our stay on Big Island and Kauai.

Big Island was fantastic. We stayed at Kona Village which lived up to our expectations. The beach is not your typical pure white golden sand but actually covered with lots of volcanic rock. However, the seclusion, sea turtles and sailing more than made up for it. The accommodation was excellent as was the service. The food was always large in portion but not exceptional (breakfast was great but lunch and dinner were average/good).

Best features of big island were the drive up to the mountain with the space telescopes on it for sunset – really enjoyable but take lots of clothes. The visit to the area where the lava meets the sea was a bit of a disappointment as you are kept so far away that during the day all you get is a plume of smoke. At night, it becomes a bit more of a spectacle as you appreciate the glow of the volcano and actually see spurts of lava. If clients have the money, the helicopter trip was good value and I saw some people take boat trips close to the lave which was definitely the best seat in the house. The walk around Volcano national park was excellent and very cheap - €10 for a 5 day pass I think.

On Kauai, we did the Napali Coast kayak trip – 19 miles which was great although a tough day. Walking to some of the waterfalls in the Waimea canyon and on the Napali was also one of the highlights of our holiday.

Quick note to other tourists. While having a Jeep Wrangler is a lot of fun, it is also a pain when you have to manually put the roof on and off. There was also very little road in Kauai or Big Island (save the observatory) where it was required. If people want a 4 wheel drive – definitely go for something we an electric roof as the quickly changing weather can make the wrangler a pain sometimes.

Hi Faye

I just wanted to say thanks for helping organize our honeymoon – Emma and I had a fantastic time. Both islands were an absolute delight and we are already thinking about a return trip one anniversary. Also wanted to say thanks for the fruit bowl which was a wonderful treat on our veranda overlooking the sea that afternoon – absolutely delicious.

Anyway, the return to reality has been a stark one given the paradise we were in! Take care

Kind regards

Fabulous Fiji

Hi Faye,

Sorry I have been meaning to write back to you. We went to Queensland after Fiji so didn’t get back until the 14th. Yes we had a wonderful time and our expectations were exceeded.

The Radisson was a perfect stopover point especially for young families as they have a variety of pools, a washer / dryer in some of the rooms and a great kids menu. The food was very good too.

Vomo Island was excellent. The villa was amazing. It was really two villas – one with a parent’s room and lounge / kitchen and one with 2 bed and bathrooms. We had to stay in the 2 bed one with the kids as they are too far apart to hear children cry! So Nigel’s mother loved her sanctuary! The service was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. The chef even organized a bbq at the villa for us one night. He is a kiwi and the food is very good. They had a Fijian night one night which I think is Thursday which is well worth staying for. The only thing I would say to people if they have kids is that it’s not as geared up as other resorts for kids. i.e. no special kids dinner. Dinner is at 7pm and if your kids eat before then they will bring it to your villa which is fine but not v. social! The island is a work in progress with more restaurant /bars and rooms to come. We loved it and would recommend it.

Thank you for organizing everything it went smoothly!

Bula Holly!

We enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the remote escape and came to view the Resort staff as family. Millie and her team took amazing care of us. The food was fantastic - I never thought I could eat so much lobster! The intimate setting also allowed us to make great friends from around the world. We are now happy to have friends in Moscow, New Zealand, Australia, and the UK. The visit to the school was a priceless experience. I loved the ability to do as much, or as little as we wanted! We sailed the Hobie Cat, took out glass-bottom kayaks, snorkeled, saw the Blue Lagoon caves and even learned to dive. We enjoyed a couple's massage overlooking the beach and I took full advantage of the Spa treatments. My favorite activity was the Private Picnic. There is nothing like knowing the only footprints on the beach are your own. As a language lover, I was thrilled that they gave us a new Fijian word to learn every day. We also enjoyed the Garden of the Sleeping Giant near Novotel.

Happy in Hawaii

Maui was wonderful and our fabulous agent, Melissa, was just as wonderful ! I have done lots of traveling in my lifetime and I have never had such a positive experience working with a travel company. From the minute I heard her voice on the phone I could tell Melissa was not only going to be a valuable source of information but an incredible
pleasure to work with. She has a wonderful ability to not only help you with logistical issues but to gently persuade you towards choices for a better experience without ever feeling like you had been talked into something! This COMPLETELY paid off for us. All her suggestions and opinions were dead-on and made a huge difference in the quality of our vacation. You are down-to-earth, honest and has a wonderful sense of humor. I will definitely be using her for all my future travel. Mahalo Melissa ! !

Maui Bliss

Hi Holly,
Just We did have a wonderful trip to Maui. Two things stood out, we loved the location of the Resort on Maui. Of course, we would only recommend the upper floors and the best units, but in terms of location for what we wanted (laid back walks on beach, no high-rise resorts and close proximity to scuba diving) it was perfect!
We loved waking up and going to sleep listening to the waves.

The other thing was diving with Maren at Extended Horizons. She was super!! Of all 9 dives I did while on Maui, the dive with her stood head and shoulders about the rest. A big thumbs up! If you want a photo, she took some gorgeous ones while on our dive.
