Hi Charisse How are you All the best for the new year Everything was very well organised which was great The hotel was stunning the catamaran was amazing we saw dolphins which i have never really seen before The rooms were gorgeous and so comfortable and spacious The weather was perfect which was so great The only bad thing was I got very sick on the last day I got food poisoning and was taken to hospital for severe dehydration That was terrible I spent the night in the hospital and left at 4 so we could be ready for our collection in time The hospital itself was stunning and I was treated so well Everything was great it is so beautiful there The only thing I would complain about is the hotel did not care that I had severe food poisoning from their food and they tried to over charge us they kept a large amount of our change but nick realised and spoke up Thank you so much for everything I will definitely be using your services again I am thinking of a cruise for this December Thanks again -

Dear Charisse I cannot believe I am already back for two weeks time just fly and I have not had a gap to tell you how great the holiday was Thank you for all the arrangement Villa D Or was amazing and the holiday even more amazing we will go back one day The only thing we would change if we could is the flight the service on the plain was not that great and the food was really bad quality are there any other flights to Seychelles That however did not spoil the holiday we enjoyed every minute and it was way too short Thank you again I have already referred you to friends Regards Ronel Enjoy your day -

08 Sep 2009 - Nico from South Africa writes"
Hi Charisse I would like to thank you again for organising our trip to Egypt and give some feed back on our experience I would highly recommend Emico travel in Egypt their service was impeccable and made the whole experience a pleasure The Marriot in Sharm-el-Shaik was a briliant hotel on the other hand I would not recommend the Hilton in Cairo as in my opinion it it not more than a 3-star hotel In my opinion the Marriot or Hyatt hotels are of better quality We were a bit unsure about our transfer from Sharm-el-Shaik airport to the diving boat you could possibly in future just indicate on the documentation that if this is included and who the responsible company is Regards Nico -

Dear Brendan We returned from Mauritius last week and it was the best holiday for our family in a long time The hotel was super the location can t be bettered and the whole experience is something to treasure forever Your arrangements worked like a well oiled Swiss watch and we never had to wait for anything except booking in at the hotel I did not know that Mauritius Air and SAA share flights Is it perhaps still possible to claim voyager miles My voyager number is To Mauritius 4 07 our seat numbers were 30E amp F and 31E and F and from Mauritius 11 07 31E and F and 32E and F Thank you once again for suggesting the Le Mauricio Hotel Should we have privilege to visit Mauritius again I ll definitely book at the same hotel Kind regards Piet Kriel -

22 Jun 2009 - Melanie from South Africa writes"
Hi Charisse The trip was totally awesome and Graham was truly surprised The resort was fabulous and we actually drove up to Sugar Beach to have a look and Le Preskil was so much better in terms of the vibe and friendliness Sugar Beach is a lot more prim and proper although I have heard that it is good for children I think I only saw one child in the resort Anyway we had a blast We are considering looking at taking our girls to Mauritius in December could you please look into that for me I believe that Club Med is nice for children but you would know better than me We are looking at leaving -26th December for about 10 days Thanks a million for everything I really appreciate it You re a star Regards Melanie -

11 Oct 2007 - Margie & Jock from Nelspruit writes"
Dear Brendan On behalf of Jock and myself I herewith wish to express our sincere gratitude for your efforts and professionalism with regards to the accommodation arrangements at the White Sands Resort in the Maldives The honeymoon and beach wedding will most certainly be a treasured memory one which will remain with us for the rest of our lives Furthermore the accommodation was splendid and the meals enticing and mouth-watering However there is one thing which I wish to bring to your attention - The Hotel into which we were booked on the eve of our departure offered a bed and breakfast package We were unfortunately not able to enjoy this benefit as we had to leave at the crack of dawn In such instance a dinner package would have been more favourable and suitable Nevertheless once again many thanks for going more than the extra mile Service of this standard is most certainly to be commended Kind regards Margie and Jock Coetzer -
04 Oct 2007 - Sanvir from Johannesburg writes"
I spent a week at Vilu Reef in the Maldives Vilu Reef is an exceptional resort Both the service and accomodation at this resort were very impressive I have a 15 month old child who was pampered just as much as my wife and I They went out of their way to accomodate my child They even served supper earlier for her Not many resorts can match their service levels I also spent 3 nights at the Metropolitan in Dubai This hotel is amongst the worst hotels I have ever visited It was the total opposite of Vilu Reef The reception staff were cold and rude It is a 4 star hotel but you have to upgrade from a standard room just to get a kettle I needed one for my child s milk but even this was not good enough for them A kettle will cost you a couple hundred extra per night -
20 Aug 2007 - Chris from London UK writes"

Hi Deborah I have been meaning to update you on our Kuredu Maldives trip It was absolutely awesome and thanks to yourselves there were no glitches or problems --- it was an absolute pleasure The accommodation and the island was awesome and the diving and the diving centre was great The only letdown was the long haul there and back The return leg was particularly long but I notice that there is now a direct flight that will make a big difference WE WILL BE BACK IN THE MALDIVES NOW we are looking at a holiday to Thailand A bit of sightseeing and lots of diving and fishing Do you put together travel packages to Thailand if not can you point us in the right direction Thanks again to both of you for a memorable holiday -

Good day coconutsands crew Hope you had a great weekend Thank you for organising our trip to swaziland-ezulwini We had a really enjoyable and relaxed time in Swaziland The people are so friendly and helpful-they made our stay so much more relaxed and stress free I m happy to say that travelling on the swazi roads was a pleasure and the drivers were courteous A real change from driving in Joburg We had good food at the planters restaurant-though the meals are quite pricey The terrace served buffet at the royal swazi and was worth the money good variety for everyone The calabash restaurant was a good night out and a change from the hotel restaurants Overall a great experience and would reccomend it to people wanting to see more of the south african neighbouring countries -

Deborah Leon Daniel and I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to you for organising our holiday which we thoroughly enjoyed We had absolutely no problems and all our transfers went well and we were collected and transported to each of our destinations without any hiccups and so we thank you for your efficiency and excellent planning and will definitely recommend your agency The only thing we thought we should mention is that the Marco Polo Hotel Dubai - depending on what side you stay can be pretty noisy especially if your room is above the bar But other than that we had a wonderful time and thank you for all that you did We will definitely contact you when we next decide to travel Happy travellers the van der Westhuizen s -

Dear Brendan and Deborah A belated thank you for organizing a marvellous holiday to Mapenzi Beach Club in Zanzibar for our family WE HAD A BALL It is a great place for older kids mine are 10 and 13 - it was never crowded and the holiday makers were relaxed - no one bothered to toff-up so it s not for people who want to quot be seen quot Everything went smoothly the facilities were great and of course the weather was faultless I even bumped into an old boarding-school mate who I haven t seen in 27 years - how s that A tip to travellers we used the local guides for excursions - snorkelling sight-seeing etc They are very trustworthy and much cheaper and more interesting than going on hotel organized tours You get a feel for the people and the place and they try so hard to please Thanks again for your hard work Regards Debbie Joubert -
