Turks and Caicos Vacation

Aloha Melissa & Sue,

We had a wonderful trip to Turks and Caicos. Thank you very much for guiding us through the process; we had absolutely no hang-ups or difficulties. I will send you a few pictures soon. The location and layout of the resort was my favorite aspect; I have never spent that many days with such a minimal need for shoes. The food and the staff were also great. We will definitely be planning future trips to Grace Bay; I can't wait take the kids on the sailboats!

Thankfully,

Hawaii Vacation Enjoyed!

Hi Faye,

I just wanted to let you know that we have returned from Hawaii. Thanks for all of your help with the planning of the trip. We enjoyed the pineapple in our room in Maui and the candy in our room in Kauai. The views and the rooms were great!
I enjoyed it so much, I am ready to go back.
I will be in touch with you in the future if I do any traveling.

Thanks again!

Amazing Qamea Fiji Vacation

Bula Lori!

Corinne and I wanted to thank you for recommending Qamea to us and helping with all the arrangements. The experience was everything we had hoped for and then some. The magic of the resort and more importantly, the heart of the people we encountered during our stay was beyond words. We’re already planning for when we can go back and visit our new family.

While we were there I think I took about 1000 pictures! We still have not gone thru them all and selected a “subset” to send our friends but when we do we will be sure to include you. The wedding was wonderful, Cia and William took pictures and video and helped with the little last minute details with Corinne’s dress and flowers.

Would love to hear about your Tahiti trip… hope that was grand as well… we would probably still choose Qamea but it’s always nice to hear about other destinations too. We can also cross Samoa off our list… we got to spend a few hours there on the way out! (LOL)…

Hope all is well with you!

Incredible Fiji Dive Vacation

Hello Hiapo,
We had a fabulous vacation. At Papageno, they upgraded us to 1/2 a house, and it was beautiful. Zacharias, the dive master, is "one of a kind", like Dr. Doolittle under water. We were spoiled, since we were the only divers the 3 of us had the ocean to ourselves. Loved the short boat rides! Food was delicious. Elizabeth is so warm and friendly, a very nice hostess and bartender! Lydia, the nurse/resident and Scott shared a lot of stories. Initially, we were the only english speaking guests, everyone else was from Austria or Germany, but it worked out fine, we pieced together conversations with pieces of english and lots of hand signals. Week one was very laid back and ran on "Figi time", since they were not at capacity.

Week 2 was quite regimented, schedule-wise, but it needed to be, with all those divers. The bure was lovely, roomy, private and perfect! We were very late arriving, due to plane issues on the other end. However, Seta (or Seto) the Captain waited for us and transported us back to Beqa Lagoon Resort in the dark and on rough water. Talk about "above and beyond the call of duty". The meals were unbelievably delicious and the staff so friendly. It was nice to have the daily afternoon activities and evening entertainment. The dive staff, every one of them, was so friendly and accommodating! The wait staff were fun and friendly. Tu Emo is the best! He was everywhere ...escorting us to church service, leading us to the school for a tour and singing, singing in the choir, teaching about "roots to fruit" of the coconut, dive master, working on the grounds, teaching us about the kava ceremony....he's a gem (and has the best giggle I've ever heard)!

The bartending ladies were a fun bunch. Scott loved teaching them new martini recipes.

Tap water at both resorts was yummy.........that was a nice surprise, and much different than our Fiji trip a few years ago to Matangi and Maravu (altho' those islands were great too)

We did accrue more of a "cash due" bill than we expected, but that's obviously under our control as a guest. We chose to pay for specialty dives at each resort. We paid for a lot of juices, to mix with our own liquor, but also bought at the bar (yes, we're lushes). Buying the liquor at duty free was a great suggestion. The drinks we bought at the bar were reasonably priced. On both islands, we had massages, and those prices were very reasonable too.

Unlimited shore diving at BLR is not really a huge advantage, since it's very dependent upon the tide and can be a bit challenging at low tide. That's OK, the "real" diving was fabulous. The only negative is the long boat rides, but since they leave at 8:00 each day, it's a good jump start, compared to other resorts we've been to.

We wish Fiji was closer..........we'd go often. I think it was the best vacation we ever had!

Blessings to you and yours....

Regards,

Lovely Likuliku Lagoon Vacation

Sue,

It was perfect! You guys did an amazing job, all of the little details were worked out, connections were seamless, and the experience was first rate. LikuLiku is incredible, and the Overwater Bungalow sits right on top of a beautiful coral reef, really amazing. Thanks for everything, happy to provide you guys with a strong recommendation.

Best regards,

Amazing Matamanoa Island Resort Fiji

Sue,
Our honeymoon was amazing. Everything couldn't have gone smoother. Matamanoa Island Resort was amazing. It is exactly what we wanted. The beach was perfect, the snorkeling was out of this world (Bekki said it was better then the Great Barrier Reef), the staff couldn't have been more friendly, the bures were perfect, and the pool was awesome. I would suggest that people do a la cart rather then a meal plan. The food options are way better. Other then that, I would highly recommend this resort. Bekki and I had the time of our lives.

Thank you so much for all your help. You really made our honeymoon go smoothly and without any hitches. The only bad thing was it only lasted a week.

Thanks again.

Beqa Lagoon Awesome Vacation

Hi Melissa,
I wanted to say that we really enjoyed our trip – the folks at Beqa were excellent and took very good care of us!
Hiapo was great to work with and put together a nice package for us. We really enjoyed it and will use you for future travel I’m sure!
So, highly recommend Beqa Lagoon Resort – they were awesome – a 5 star rating across the board! Excellent food, diving, staff and very friendly hosts. Finding the Scorpion Leaf Fish was a treasure. The Novotel was a nice, clean place and would be great as a hop–off point for some of the activities on the main island.

Regards,

Fabulous Fiji - Maravu Vacation

Hi Melissa,

Everything was absolutely perfect I couldn't have asked for a better place. Mark Cardoza was great, he answered all of our questions, was always available and we are very thankful. Everything went smooth as soon as we got to the airport. Rosie's staff was wonderful and helpful. The staff at Maravu was great I cant even describe in words how great they were, they catered to our every need and they treated us like we were one of them, I don't think we will ever meet any nicer people then them, the food was excellent, the activities were great (always had something to do) We always had privacy and that was wonderful that's what my wife wanted.
We plan on going back to Maravu on our 5 year anniversary and we will definitely be using you guys again, if not for you we wouldn't have had the perfect honeymoon that we had and we thank you!!!

Qamea Fiji Wedding Honeymoon

Hi Melissa,
We had a fabulous time in Qamea, Fiji. It was a trip of a lifetime, and one we will cherish forever. We had a beautiful wedding, with the staff going out of their way to make it perfect for us. It was. The weather, the food, the accommodations, the beauty of the island….everything was just perfect on our trip. Of course, my single favorite experience would have to be my wedding. Being married right there on the beach with the ocean splashing behind us was inexplicable. But if I had to choose another (as there are so many) it would be dancing and singing with the native villagers and their children at the Friday “Meke” celebration. What a memory. Thanks to Mike Brown for suggesting Qamea to us, and taking care of everything on the travel end. His help was invaluable in finding Qamea and lining up everything necessary for a stress-free trip. I feel like we found a little gem in McCoy travel, and will definitely use your services again. I have already recommended you to several of my friends.

If there were a weak link in the chain at all it would only be that we had a bit of difficulty with some of the airline reservations (i.e. they couldn’t find us listed, or bumped us to another flight, messed up our connection flight a bit, etc.) but even these things were pretty small in the big picture. We didn’t lose any of our luggage and we arrived safely to all our destinations.
This was just such a wonderful experience and I am grateful to McCoy travel and all of the staff at Qamea who helped give us this amazing wedding, trip and memory.

Warm Regards,

From Australia to Hawaii - Great Trip!

Aloha Melissa,
We had a fantastic time in Hawaii. Everything went to plan exceptionally well, no problems at all. All your hard work was worth it as we enjoyed the entire holiday. Our rooms were beautiful and the service at both resorts was great. We enjoyed the busy life of Waikiki and the relaxed atmosphere of the Big Island. The Hilton Waikoloa was very nice, I would recommend this to anyone travelling to Hawaii. The prices you gave us were very affordable, much better than we could get here in Australia. We would definitely return and look towards Maui and Kauai. Also would love to book through McCoy travel for future Island holidays.
Thank-you for your service and Thanks to Mike Brown

Warm Regards,

Fiji Dream Vacation - Perfection

Melissa,
Soon after I contacted you, Lori Evans contacted me. I now have a wonderful diving trip planned to Fiji next month and am very excited! Lori was full of information and enthusiasm, was very client-centric, and was as pleasant to deal with as I remembered Robin to be. I felt that Lori negotiated on my behalf with the resort involved in the vacation package. The package itself was exactly to my specifications, which Lori was only able to do after uncovering my habits, preferences, travel experience, etc. All these are indications to me that she had my best interests in mind. It is my estimation that she represents your company VERY well. In difficult economic times like these, excellence in customer service carries a LOT of weight. I wanted to take a moment to let you know of the terrific individual you have in Lori Evans.

Warm regards,
