Bula Mike,
Thanks for your help Mike, we had a great time! Tokoriki was great, the people were really nice and the pool was great. Arrangements with Rosie's went really well - logistically a great trip.
Cheers,

Fijian Weddingmoon
Bula Mike,
I wanted to thank you so so so much for arranging our Fiji wedding/vacation/honeymoon. We had an absolutely fantastic time. It was beyond our expectations. You were right about Vomo, we absolutely LOVED it. The are the friendliest people in the world. They went above and beyond anything we could have imagined for our wedding. Having our wedding on Thursday before Lovo night was fantastic, as they made us feel as if it was wedding celebration. David got to be Chief, and of course, every guest offered him kava, so he was feeling good :) hehehe.
We are already talking about going back to Vomo, it was just absolutely fantastic. I am so glad we got married there. It was absolutely spectacular. The folks at Vomo were so excited about our wedding, we were treated like royalty the whole time. They even surprised us one night decorating our bure with candles and flowers. And we also got a surprise champagne breakfast the day we departed (they even wrote our names on top of our cappuccinos). They trully made the time we spent there unforgettable.
As promised below are pictures, so in case you need to show anybody what a Vomo wedding looks like. Yoshi did an amazing job, he is phenomenal.
Likuliku was also very nice. The facilities are fabulous and the staff very friendly (although nothing like the folks at Vomo, they are hands down the best). Food in both places was spectacular, thus I have to say I enjoyed Vomo's better as they had more seafood in the menu.
Thank you for the tip on getting some wine at the Airport, this was good call.
Panto the Rosie's driver is such a sweetheart, and speaks very highly of you and Melissa McCoy. He also told us where you go to get your beef pies that you like .. hehe.
Anyway, take a look at the pictures and I hope that it will help convince other couples for a fantastic wedding celebration at Vomo.
Thank you so much for arranging all of this for us, we had the wedding of our dreams! Thank you for making that possible.
Aloha,

Fiji & New Zealand Vacation
Hello Melissa & Robin!
We had a wonderful trip. Rosie's had everything arranged (multiple taxis etc) just right. They were helpful indeed. We recommend highly Blue Lagoon Cruises - the crew is fantastic and they REALLY go the extra mile to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable.
The Anchorage (where we only stayed 1 night) was also pleasant. I needed an internet connection desperately (to send an overdue work item) and the Desk Clerk did everything he could to help me out.
He ended up letting me hook my laptop to the Hotel-desk-connection for almost an hour! No charge. Just smiles. I was sooooo relieved to get that done, and to start my real vacation.
Air Pacific was fine. I bought an upgrade to fly Business on the way back (Nadi to LAX). Wow - was it ever
worth it. The only thing we were not pleased with were the internet usage charges and meals at one of our stop-overs.
All in all - a great time, and I would DEFINITELY use McCoy travel in the future.
Vinaka!

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,
