Hi Melissa and Mark,
The vacation was phenomenal. It was by far the nicest vacation I have ever gone on. The resort was stellar, and the staff was amazing. The room was upgraded for free to a private casita which included a private infinity pool. Swiss travel was wonderful. The trips were timely and well-coordinated.
Thank you for your efforts.

Dear Caroline,
I wanted to tell you that our Hawaii Anniversary vacation was spectacular! The beauty of Lanai and the activities on Maui were unmatched. Seeing the spinner dolphins in the bay while sitting on our bed at the Four Seasons Resort at Manele Bay was unbelievable. The champagne that you arranged on our arrival was excellent. The accommodations at the Four Seasons and at the Ritz Carlton Kapalua were as nice as anywhere we have ever stayed. The activities you arranged were well organized and the added information concerning what to wear and what to take were extremely helpful. The lunch at Mama's was delicious and the setting was unforgettable. My wife's favorite activity turned out to be the day trip to Oahu, but my favorite was the helicopter ride. I appreciate all the effort that you put in to planning our trip, and I am glad that I found McCoy travel on the internet. I have told all my friends that they need to go to Hawaii and to use you as their travel agent. My wife and I plan to return soon to see the whales, to visit Kauai, and to return to Manele Bay. When we plan to travel there again, we will definitely use McCoy travel and your services in particular. I was sorry to hear about your sister, but I hope you and her family are doing well.
Again, thank you for your help in planning the perfect anniversary vacation.

Bula Melissa!

We loved our trip and wish we were still there. Everything went smoothly. I loved both resorts, they were so different and I would tell all to call you to go to the Fiji-Islands as everything went very smoothly. Lori was excellent and it was a treat meeting her.

Thanks Again,

Hi Faye,

Out trip was fabulous, Thank you so much for all your help and the gift you left us at the hotel. Maui was breathtaking and we fit in exactly what we could. Molokini and the luau were top notch. I wish we had more time but I guess we will just have to come back and see it again.
I was truly amazed at the color of the water. I have been a lot of places but I have never seen water as blue as it was in Hawaii. Again, thank you and thanks to your group, it was a memorable vacation.

Bless you and Mahalo

Hi Mike,
Just thought I’d let you know that we returned back from our trip to Fiji a couple of nights ago. We had a FABULOUS time and I wanted to thank you for your help with our trip.

We continue to love Fiji and I plan to hopefully start a charity to help with some additional school funding. At a minimum, I plan to gather up a bunch of supplies and ship them over. We met a gentleman from the State Department who was at Matangi while we were there who is building the US Embassy in Suva who is going to help with the logistics. He will remain in Fiji until the Fall. The kids are truly amazing and they need some additional support. It would be so great if more people sent supplies to Fiji for the schools & children.

Glad you had a nice trip.

Hi Mike,
I had a wonderful vacation. Pearl Beach Bora Bora assigned me to room 44, one of the best premium rooms. I was the very end of the structures and had mountains straight in front of me. I really enjoyed the shallow clear water!

Thanks for everything.

Bula Bula Faye!

Wow, what an incredible experience Bill and I had in Fiji... Incredible. Thank you for our guidance in our plans to Fiji and to Tokoriki specifically. We have slowly been returning to our lives of responsibility...not easy! not fun! Can't we stay in our little Bure on Tokoriki forever?! Just kidding, but we have truly been missing our experience there.

We will definitely keep your services in mind for future trips in South Pacific. We go to Hawaii every few years, so will keep you in mind for sure.

We have told everyone they must go to Fiji and have told them if they decide to go I have the perfect travel agent for them! The shells and coral and the snorkeling and just the balmy beauty...Bill especially loved chasing sharks...and we both loved the private bures with outdoor showers and a private path to the beach and the lovely people and...We could go on and on.

We look forward to future travel planning with you.
Much peace,
Vinaka vakalevu!

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!

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.

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!

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.

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 defiantly be using you guys again, if not for you we wouldn't have had the perfect honeymoon that we had and we thank you!!!

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.

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,

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 definately 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

How are things? I came back to reality yesterday afternoon and I HATE it!!!! I tried calling you while we were still in Maui but I guess you were on vacation yourself. I just want to say on behalf of my wife and myself thank you so much for helping set up a great honeymoon. We had a blast. The Fairmont especially blew us away and the room was amazing. Thank you for the chocolate covered strawberries and champagne also, that was a very nice touch. I know I definitely was a huge pain in the axx but now I know for next time I don’t have to be with the thorough job you did. Thanks and Mahalo!!!!! Go Yankees!!!!

We will definitely recommend you to friends and family who are considering going to Hawaii.

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.

Our 'Weddingmoon' in Hawaii was perfect- we did not want to leave! Hiapo was completely wonderful and the Royal Hawaiian an amazing experience! There were so many fun parts, I don't know that I could narrow down a single favorite experience. We LOVED our hotel and everything they provided (view, breakfast, service, Mai Tai bar), the reception dinner at Azure Restaurant was perfect, and all our activities were fun.

I loved working with your agency and thank you for employing such wonderful people!

Hi Melissa,
It was a great trip. I found Lori to be patient, quick and very professional. Couldn't be more pleased with the arrangements. Tokoriki itself was a delight. It was beautiful and just what we had in mind. The people who worked there are the friendliest I think I have ever come across in a resort. Everyone seemed to know who we were within 24 hours. I look forward to returning someday. Thanks to all at McCoy Travel for making it work.

Aloha Sue,
I can tell you guys that this was the BEST trip we have ever taken! It just kept getting more and more amazing and I'm so very glad we used McCoy Travel to plan this out because we would have been so lost otherwise.

* The Moana Surfrider Waikiki was a great hotel, the room was small, but quaint, it was great being right on the water, the staff was wonderful. The only thing we didn't care for was the food, but I would certainly stay there again.
* The Fairmont Kea Lani on Maui simply blew us away. Really. We just could not get over how beautiful the place was, how amazingly friendly and helpful ALL of the staff were, how welcomed we felt, how at home we felt...we just could not get over that place and we are definitely planning to take our kiddos there when we return to Hawaii in a few years. Amazing!
* The Royal Hawaiian did not disappoint either. Not quite as impressive after coming from the Fairmont, but gosh, the staff was incredible (again!). The day we left HI, our checkout was at noon, but they took such good care of us, letting us hang out at the hotel, giving us a key to the suite so we could shower/change before our plane left. There were so very considerate. And the food??? The food at this hotel was our FAVORITE!! Everything was so fresh and flavorful. So delicious...we were very surprised. We only stayed one night, but we ate 3-4 meals there because we loved it so much.
* You booked cars via Alamo rental for us and they were wonderful, too. They helped us upgrade to fun cars and it was so pleasant dealing with them that we ended up going back to rent yet another car for our last few days on the island.

We did have a bike trip with Maui Downhill, but they had to cancel our trip. So no feedback on that.

Once again, we were so very glad we used McCoy Travel. I know our trip was a little complicated to plan out, but Sue, you did an incredible job putting it all together for us. Our 10th anniversary was truly something memorable!

Mahalo!

Hello Melissa & Sue,
I hope all is well! We had a wonderful vacation. I have already posted a note on trip advisor. I felt compelled to do so because the service at the Four Season's Bora Bora was outstanding. As soon as we arrived we were very well greeted and were made to feel as though we were the most important guests at the resort. In fact every guest is treated that way. One of the days our kids got sunburned. A bottle of baby, sunscreen was later delivered to our room by Thomas, the front desk manager.

The kid's club was the best one that my kids have ever been to because it was all about the kids. They made lot's of effort in planning amazing things for free for the kids to participate in. Activities such as scuba diving lessons, snorkeling, fishing seadoo rides. Our accommodations were beautiful. The 2 and 3 bedroom villa's were stunning and very clean.

All of the staff there were so friendly and very caring. When we left at least 6 staff members were there to say goodbye.We would highly recommend this resort and will be going back again this year!!
Flights were ok. Staff on Air France were just ok. We took a trip to Tahaa, the Island was beautiful. Resort was just ok. I hope that this information is helpful and thanks for all of your help.

Take care,

Aloha Faye,

We are back and are getting settled in after the trip to Hawaii and then my trip to Calgary to visit my Mom.

We had a wonderful time and the help that you provided on every aspect was greatly appreciated. Especially given that our scope changed a couple of times in the planning process! Thanks also for looking in to the flights to return Mary Lynn one day earlier which enabled us to take her to the airport just before her flight rather than having her wait around for 5 hours at the airport. Also thanks for checking on the flights to Calgary.

We really liked staying at the Palms of Wailea. My mother in law was delighted with her garden view condo. The garden view condo that we were initially placed in was pretty dated and we didn't care for the busy street that we looked out on. After the first night we moved to an ocean view condo (for an extra fee) and this was amazing. Gorgeous views of the ocean and whales. The condo was also more up to date and not tired-looking. We would definitely stay here again. The condo was extremely spacious especially after our travels in Europe!! The location was great with the beach being just a short drive away and great shops and restaurants (though pricey) at the Shops of Wailea. We also enjoyed the live entertainment there on Wednesday night.

I thought that groceries were very expensive but was advised to get a special temporary card at Foodland that gave me large savings. We also did a snorkel trip, Luau at the Marriott and did a short trip to the Botanical Garden, stopping at a golf course and having lunch at a Cafe o Lei on the way back (this was great).

Thanks for all that you did to make our holiday perfect,
Roxanne

Hi Lori,
Thank you so very much for all your help during our crisis in Fiji. As you know we ended up spending 10 wonderful days at Taunovo Bay and our wedding was absolutely amazing. We owe alot of the success of this trip to you and the Young family, and we'll always be grateful for your tremendous support. I remember you sending me a hug over the phone when i needed it so much and it has helped.

We would like to send you a card. I hope we'll have a chance to plan together another trip in the near future. We absolutely loved Fiji, with it wonderful waters and lush vegetation, but mostly it was the people that left such a strong impression on us. We'd love to return.

Thank you again for everything!

We had a great time on Malolo - a wonderful recommendation! - thank you. We had an awful lot of fun.

We've traveled a lot before, and though the scenery, weather, beaches and sea are similar to what we've experienced in Venezuela and Colombia, the people and the culture make the Fijian islands an absolute joy to travel too!!! so much more relaxed, less hassle, much much safer and more friendly. Its a real shame other countries can't learn from Fiji's example.

It was well worth the extra flying time - thanks again. Just got to decide where to go next!

Many thanks Mike

Hi Hiapo,

Just wanted to let you know that we LOVE Turtle Bay. Sad to be leaving today, but Bora Bora should be a blast.. Hiapo has been very helpful so far. Went surfing yesterday, it was a blast! Next time, I will have my arms worked out so my instructor doesn't have to paddle me to the waves each time ;) Bahaha! Went to the Polynesian Cultural Center for a luau last night, didn't realize it was so huge. We could have spent the whole day there, but we kind of expected the luau to be a little different like on a beach and with booze! LOL

I think we have found our future place to call home in Hawaii! But we still haven't been to Bora Bora so I will keep you posted. Thank you for arranging an amazing vacation thus far!!!

Mahalo!

Hi McCoy Travel Team,
We had a great time in French Polynesia. Thanks so much for your guidance, arrangements and wonderful service Hiapo. Le Taha'a was absolutely perfect, from the staff to the facilities and the beautiful reef right out front. The Sofitel Bora Bora Motu was outstanding as well. Really nice location and beautiful facilities. We were surprised due to the low number of guests that we had to travel to the Sofitel Beach Resort for lunch and dinner. It wasn't a problem with boats departing whenever you called but guests should be informed ahead of time. The staff was attentive and the GM went out of her way to keep us informed during the Tsunami evacuation. The snorkeling was okay and the Bora Bora diving center was outstanding.

I wouldn't recommend the other Resort we went to as the accommodations are antiquated and the reef has been destroyed by the Pearl Farms. The food was mediocre at best and a small selection. Hiapo tried to steer us clear of this place and we should have listened! The staff did a great job taking care of us and the atoll is beautiful.
We want to thank Hiapo especially for his expert advice and perfect arrangements. Thanks to Melissa for sending your team to check out these places. This is the reason we use you exclusively for our South Pacific holidays.

Mahalo!

Hi Melissa!

We got back from our Fijian honeymoon a little over a month ago. We wanted to let you know that we had the most wonderful time! We stayed on the main island at Waidroka Surf and Dive Resort for the first 4 nights, and we completely fell in love with that place! It was a very unique and intimate resort, and we realized that as soon as the driver drove us up really steep dirt roads to get to the resort. The staff was all really nice, and we became good friends with them in no time.The staff also upgraded us to the honeymoon bure, which was really big and cute! Ryan got plenty of surfing in, and we both went scuba diving and snorkeling. It was all really great. Plus the food was soooo amazing! They served us 3 course meals every night! And we loved everything we ate! We really loved the whole atmosphere of the small resort and didn't want to leave. After our 4 nights, we traveled back to Denarau to take the Yasawa flyer to Nanuya. It was a long boat ride, but it was amazing to see almost every island in the Yasawa's. As soon as the boat stopped at Nanuya, we knew we made the right choice by choosing that island. It was surrounded with amazing blue waters, and the bures were all hidden in the trees. We got a warm welcome from the Fijian staff, and they showed us to our Oceanfront Bure, which was incredible. While at Nanuya we did a lot more laying on the beach than at Waidroka, but we were so content to just sit and stare at the clear waters. We also did the cave dives, went scuba diving and shark diving, and did lots of snorkeling. The scuba diving and shark diving were awesome! It was so fun to be so close to the sharks and big fish and the staff made us feel really comfortable. That was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. The dinners at Nanuya were also amazing! The dinners weren't included so we were planning on just splitting them every night, but after tasting the amazing crab on the first night, we decided we didn't want to share because it was so good!

Ryan and I did a lot of research on the different Fijian islands and resorts before we made our decision to go to Waidroka and Nanuya. We wanted to get lots of diving in, as well as some lounging on a beautiful beach. We were worried about the resorts that we picked only because we had to travel a little extra to get to them. But both resorts were worth the extra traveling and I couldn't have asked for a better honeymoon.

Please especially tell Lori thank you for helping us! She did such an amazing job at giving us any details on any resort we were interested in, and I knew that she wasn't just trying to make a sale. She was very patient with us, even though we had so many questions. She made everything very easy for us, and made us feel extremely comfortable.

Thank you again for everything and we will definitely let you know when we're ready to plan another vacation!

Aloha ,

Below is the info on the wonderful lady Sue, that I found who was so great helping me plan our Hawaii trip. Like said, it was INCREDIBLE, and she's really good at knowing what's going to be best for you after she talks to you for awhile. I'm convinced our conversations helped her with leading me to the right hotel, etc. Also they have great packages they can put together with their vendors. If you want to go to Oahu/Honolulu/Waikiki, I would definitely stay at the Moana Surfrider Westin. It is right on the beach, and the hotel is GORGEOUS! The food was incredible, the Spa experience was AMAZING, and it is literally right on the "Rodeo Drive" of Honolulu as far as shopping. Ridiculous!

We had a beautiful tower room; it was pretty big, (an auto-upgrade in the package we bought) and was literally overlooking the ocean and Waikiki beach - it could not have been more surreal! The room also had a nice-sized balcony with two patio chairs and a small table and plenty of room to just hang out and listen to the surf (Tim literally thought he had died and gone to heaven!). I took several pics (hundreds!); one is the sunset one night (a big event as you can see), the hotel front at night (doesn't do it justice!), the bay where we went snorkeling (OMG! gorgeous and too much fun to see all the pretty fishies!) and the views from our room (yes, that big "mountain" on the left is Diamond Head which is on the SE end of the island; it was a volcano once I think). The hotel had a complimentary "special services coordinator" person that could help you with the different tours to do whatever you wanted. The tours were too fun and the guides were a hoot! The snorkeling at Hanauma Bay was SO much fun, and Pearl Harbor/USS Arizona were unforgettable. They were both very reasonably priced.

But you might decide you'd rather do something else, and try Maui, Hawaii or Kauai; they are all supposed to be beautiful (we'll do one of those next time) There's tons of stuff to do on those islands and they are much less populated (Oahu has 75% of Hawaii's population probably due to the hospitality industry since Pearl Harbor and Waikiki are there). Anyway, when you're ready, Sue is a great help at guiding you to what you want based on your budget. AND travel is pretty darn cheap right now; I was really surprised how much we got for how little. It was everything I dreamed of, and more - Like the pilot said when we arrived into Honolulu, "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to PARADISE!!! " and IT WAS !!!!!

Hi Michael,

I just want to let you know that we had a great time on our 7-Day cruise last Christmas in Hawaii, and I want to thank you for making all the arrangement for us. From the time we arrived and returned back home was a problem free experience. You guys are an awesome bunch and I hope we can do it again soon.

Best Regards,

Hi Faye,

Thanks for the heads up and the information. Yes I imagine having to jaunt all over the south pacific and to the US to see the kids and relatives could be quite the cost. Guess living in the proverbial paradise has its warts, tough life and all. But, hey! Someone's got to do it! Guess you can "tough it out"! Struggle through it and all. Stiff upper lip you know! Chin up now, that's a good lass! No crying! LOL
Looks like you've been unanimously elected to help us with our future jaunts across the world as well. A poll of a few friends resulted in all agreeing that any trip of this magnitude needs professional attention. I heartily agree. So, you're it my dear! After all, why change horses in mid-stream? Talk to you soon!

Have a great day!!

Hi Lori,

Pleasure talking to you. We had a wonderful time in Tahiti! We were treated like royalty, it was great and the resort and bungalows were incredible. The resort put those adorable big cookies in our bungalow for the kids one day with the their names on them.. They loved it.. Very cute!

We are really happy and appreciative and want to go back there again next year so be on the hunt for good prices for air and accommodations. Attached some nice pics.. we took over 1000 of them. Please keep me posted if u come across any incredible deals for next xmas.

Thanks for all your help in planning this trip for us, Lori.

Dear Sue,

First of all let me wish you a happy new year. I'm back already since one week but as you can imagine, it has been a busy one after such a beautiful vacation. Let me immediately thank you for all your assistance and recommendations, everything worked out perfectly.

Moorea, Sofitel: the island is simply gorgeous (we also rented a scooter for a day to go a little bit around). The resort is probably one of the best and surely has the best beach. Food was excellent as well.
Service was a bit lower than our expectations. On the other hand, the room was pretty nice and its location was excellent; the water is beautiful and plenty of snorkeling to do.

Raiatea, Le Tahaa: OUT OF THIS WORLD.
Simply the best experience ever. You know a bit my tastes and my past experiences such as Fiji, Cook islands etc.
Le Tahaa has been by far the most fantastic experience ever. Location is beautiful, they said they upgraded our room (I don't know if it's just marketing or for real...;-) ) that was overlooking Bora Bora instead of Raiatea, service was expedite and very precise, staff was extremely kind and professional, food was very good, room was outstanding...
I could continue for 2 pages.

Generally speaking, let me tell you that everything worked perfectly with transfers etc. Absolutely no problem.

Enjoy a happy and successful 2010. Talk to you soon,

Hi Melissa,
We had a great time in New Zealand and on Rarotonga. Lori always does a great job for us in putting together our vacation (I have attached our email to her). We will be happy to refer friends to your company. We have recommended your company to friends interested in going to Fiji, but in the future, we will also recommend you for the other places as well. We are also happy to serve as a reference as well if you should have someone who wants another opinion.

Thanks

Bula Mike,

Thanks Mike. We had a great time and the food at the Cousteau resort was out of this world.

Hello Faye,

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all of your help with our trip to Fiji. This trip would not have happened without your help. I will most certainly contact you in the future for any travel needs and I will gladly recommend you to others I know that are planning vacations as well. Thank you so much!

Have a great day and thanks again,

Dear Hiapo,

We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Fiji. You arranged a terrific package, on very short notice at a peak time, at the Intercontinental Hotel, which is a stunning property.
A friend recommended we call McCoy Travel when we said we were thinking about a trip to Fiji. You made our trip absolutely seamless and you suggestions were right on point for our needs. We will certainly call you when we are ready to plan a trip to Moorea.

Thank you, Hiapo and a Happy New Year.
Kindest regards,

PS The gourmet restaurant at the Intercontinental is called Navo. It is a delicious eating adventure. We loved it!!
