Maui Dream Vacation

Aloha Melissa,
We had a wonderful family holiday!! The staff was great, we loved the location, facilities and amenities.

All other activities--scuba, luau, zip-lining, were great fun and a top-notch experience. In spite of the room snafu, the holiday was our family fav! We would even go back to the Kea Lani.

Thanks for all your assistance. We LOVED your "beloved" Maui. It IS a paradise!!

p.s. Please keep us informed of any "deals" for Maui at Wailea!!

Best & Mahalo,

Perfect Maui Condo Vacation

Aloha Melissa,
We had a great time. Our condo was perfect—relatively small, close to the ocean, clean and attractive. Everyone enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We had a visit from a monk seal and lots of whale sightings.

We went to Molokini and Lanai for snorkeling--saw lots of spinning dolphins and whales as well as reef fish. The Old Lahaina luau was lovely—delicious food and strong performances.

I’ll try to get to TripAdvisor to rate accommodations too.

Thanks for your help!

Hawaiian Dream Vacation

Mike!
We are flabbergasted!!!!!! You shocked us earlier today by telling us you'd upgraded us to an Ocean Front Suite (we were just thrilled we'd be in a deluxe ocean view room to begin with), but nothing could have prepared us for these accommodations!!!! Our suite has two bathrooms! It's bigger than our own home! It's beautiful! And we haven't even seen it in daylight!!!! Oh, and did I mention the two giant lanais?????? You are the BEST!!!!!! Thank you so much!

Just a little heads-up.. You may be hearing from the hotel... They didn't seem to get the memo about the breakfast being included, but I'm sure it will get straightened out. I printed out an email your wrote that mentioned it, so they are going to try to track it all down.

Thank youuuuu!

Warmest,

Later that day ...Breakfast issue resolved... We are sooooo happy here in Paradise!!!! We woke up and opened the curtains to find we have been transported to the most beautiful place!!! The ocean is RIGHT outside and beautiful beyond belief, and our two lanais are bigger than our dining room!!!!!

Thank you!!!!

Warmest,
J & D Holcombe

Fiji - New Zealand - Hawaii

Mike, Bula Bula Bula and Aloha!

Mahalo and Denaka for your help on my trip.

I made it back. The only problem was leaving NZ, Fiji and Hawaii.

New Zealand is heaven on earth... Fiji was absolutely magical... Kauai was wonderful..

The best thing you did was be the foil in my lodging selections, and recommend the Fiji sailing "adventure". Without the give-and-take on the lodgings, I would have not found the ones I found, or made the same decisions. Thank you!!!

In NZ, the Auckland Westin was 5 star. Once I realized all the prices were in $Kiwis, and the $Kiwi is half the $Usdollar, I ordered another bottle of Hawkes Bay Pinot Noir and another Pavlova! Auckland was about ten times better than Seattle or San Francisco (our best cities in the US). I could live there in a minute. Great people, city, neighborhoods, golf (Murawai by the beach and Titirangi, a parkland course designed by Alistar McKenzie), sailing, shopping, dining and perfect weather!

Fabulous Fiji Vacation

Hi Faye,

All of your planning and tickets, etc. went very well. We were met by Rosie's and by the others who were supoosed to do so. The Fijians were all so nice we really enjoyed the country. We were very pleased with our choices of the Tui Tai and Moody's Namena. The snorkeling and diving in Fiji were amazing and our only disappointment was the weather.

Unfortunately we had terrible weather ("worst floods in a century") which literally put a dampener on the trip.

On Tui Tai we were 3 of only 6 passengers on a boat holding 22 passengers and with a crew of about 20. We were very well looked after!. The weather meant our snorkeling and diving were severly curtailed. They had planned 4 shore excurions, 3 to villages and one to a waterfall. With a bit of adjustment we were able to do them all and were very glad they were planned. Seeing the villages was a real treat and added a lot to our trip.

The Tui Tai was fine. Not normal weather. The boat felt very seaworthy, even during our night of 6-8 foot seas. The captain was very good.

Moody's was another adventure that we enjoyed. It is a mile long island, holding about 12 guests (we were the only 3), and surrounded by a reef, with at least 24 dive spots. Due to the weather we had only 1/2 hour on the reef. Our accomodations were fine, and simple lifestyle was the correct description. Our bedside reading lamps were powered by solar, and the room lights were gas lamps. The toilets use salt water and the fresh water showers had individual hot wter heaters. They worked fine. All water is catchment but shortages were not a problem to us!
Tom and Joan Moody were very interesting and we enjoyed being there. We would defintely go there again.

We went to Palau last year in early Jan and had rainy weather so next time (maybe next year) we will go later in the year.

All for now,

Hawaii Family Trip

Hi Rukie,
I've been meaning to write, but January was just so busy for us. After coming back from Hawaii we had to find a new nanny in one week and then we were off to Key West for a friends wedding -- an 8 day trip with no travel interruptions. Needless to say we were both behind at work and behind in our personal lives.

I attached a few photos for you. One is of Mohan and me at Santa Monica beach (before we got to Hawaii). The second is of Erin and Anna at the old Lahaina Luau.

Thanks again for all your help. I have the feeling we were probably one of your more 'challenging' clients.
You made our trip relaxing and enjoyable - thank you again.

All the best,
N. Shah

Fantastic Travel Agent

Hi Mike,

This is an excerpt from my recommendation I sent to friends...

"As to our conversation about traveling to Hawaii and other tropical destinations, the following is our travel agent's contact information:

Mike Brown's Email, office phone & cell

Mike is based out of Hawaii and works for McCoy Travel.

My past experience with Mike was phenomenal (this was our trip to Fiji). Mike goes the extra mile to make sure you not only have a great time at your destination, but that your travel to and from are just as great as well.

I would certainly call him when you are ready to schedule so that he could customize something FANTASTIC for you!"

Many Thanks,
