Riu Ocho Rios, Jamaica

We had a fantastic girls getaway in Ocho Rios Jamaica!! Our RIU resort was fairly new and absolutely beautiful and catered to our every need. There was so much to do in the resort and yet so relaxing if you just wanted to lounge in the sun. As with most all-inclusive resorts our reservation meals/specialty restaurants were the best over the buffets. The water was several shades of blue every day and our favorite activity was lying in the sun or hanging out in the water. While the pools in the resort are spectacular with built in lounge chairs, swim up bars, etc. we found ourselves in a chair on the white sand every day! The evening activities at the resort were the best I’ve seen at any all-inclusive. It also has its own dance club should you feel the need. Find yourself a regular bartender and you’ll have drinks made exactly how you like!!

Absolutely do the tourist thing and climb Dunn’s River Falls! It was an amazing experience and one I highly recommend even though it is such a big tourist attraction. You’ll even make new friends along the way as you climb the falls. The transport from the airport to the hotel is long, but we enjoyed seeing the “real” Jamaica along the way and the rest stop in itself was an adventure with a beautiful ocean view, cold beverages, etc. We also spent a couple of hours shopping in the little village and found some fun bargains. A stern “no thank you” will help you to shop in peace and they never charge you what’s on the sticker price.

Overall this vacation ranks in my top 3 and I highly recommend RIU Ocho Rios in Jamaica where “Everyting is Irie”!!! Thanks for a wonderful summer vacation…we really appreciate all your help and input.

Sandals Negril, Jamaica

We had the time of our lives in Negril, Jamaica! After several rigorous months of planning for the wedding, we were in desperate need of a serious vacation. A week in lovely Negril at the Sandals Resort was just what we needed. The staff was so friendly and helpful and the food was amazing! We also liked the fact that the resort was not too crowded, which invoked a more intimate setting for couples!

Although it took some time to get from the airport to the resort, we enjoyed having a “tour” of the island. The drivers were very knowledgeable and eager to share information.

We also wanted to take time to experience more, so we took the day-long Riverwalk excursion. The trip is about 1.5 hours into the mountains where you will find a piece of tropical paradise - the secluded, but gorgeous Mayfield River! The cascades are breath-taking as you hike along the bank and swimming in the cool water was just what we needed during the heat of the day.

Many thanks to Memorable Travels for helping us make our honeymoon one to remember. Your service was excellent and we look forward to your assistance in planning our next vacation.

Sandals Whitehouse European Resort & Spa,
Jamaica

"Destination Weding" We had a wonderful time at the Sandals Whitehouse European Resort & Spa. We were there for 7 days and never left the resort. There is always something to do or go and see. It was very peaceful and laid back.

Our wedding service was great and we plan on going back, hopefully for our 1 year anniversary.

Thank you,

Sandals Negril, Jamaica

We stayed at Sandals Negril, and it was picture perfect. I would highly recommend the resort and using this travel agent as well. We didn't have to worry about anything while we were there. Even though we just booked the concierge suite, we were surprised when we arrived to have been upgraded to a butler level suite. It was wonderful. I couldn't imagine the trip without a butler. It was worth the extra money and I highly recommend it. They brought all our drinks, food, made the bath at night with champagne, chocolate covered strawberries, and rose petals, and booked all the meals and outings.

We look forward to booking with Memorable Travels again next year, and hope to make this a yearly trip for us. Thanks again for all your hard work for making our trip truly memorable.

Sandals Royal Caribbean, Jamaica

We had a great time in Jamaica. The resort, Sandals Royal Caribbean, was great, the employees were all very friendly! The food was plentiful. A few dishes lacked a little “something” but otherwise we had a blast. Thanks for your help.

Couples Swept Away, Jamaica

Our honeymoon at Couples Swept Away was absolutely perfect...the resort was fabulous! We got an oceanfront room, which the staff kept very clean and the mini bar stocked regularly. The food was amazing ... extremely delicious with gourmet presentation. The ocean was beautiful, as was the sand. The activities were endless; free activities were fun, and payable activities were just as enjoyable. The ride to the resort was somewhat long, but it was very interesting to see the countryside of the real Jamaica. Overall, this was a perfect honeymoon and we highly recommend for every couple to visit this resort!

Thanks so much!!

Moon Dance Villas, Jamaica

We had an amazing time in Jamaica. It was exactly the kind of vacation we hoped it would be, and I know we will enjoy it with fond memories for years to come.

The villas were beautiful and the staff was fabulous-we never wanted for anything the entire trip!

I would not hesitate to recommend Moon Dance Villas to anyone looking to live a pampered life in a beautiful location!

Thanks for everything!

Sandals Grand Ocho Rios, Jamaica

We had such a wonderful time at Sandals Ocho Rios on our wedding and it was as beautiful as the pictures. Jamaica is a pristine, gorgeous country with beautiful land and sea-through waters. We learned a lot about Jamaica from our driver and the origination of the people and the cultures that were there. My husband and I were married there and had 14 of our friends and family come to share our wedding with us. We were married on the reef terrace gazebo on a cliff that overlooked the ocean. We had our first dance, father/daughter dance, and mother/son dance, toasts, and tears at the reception. Later we all had a candlelight dinner on the same gazebo with the sound of the waves crashing below us.

My husband and I received hour-long massages on the pier at sunset it felt like a dream. We went snorkeling in the ocean and we were dropped at a 90-foot WWII ship that was sunk at the bottom of the ocean. We choose a set of Platinum china place settings that are simple, elegant, and came in the mail within 6 weeks. They are gorgeous and are about $100 a place setting, if bought in the stores.

It was a beautiful experience that we will never forget and want to go to another Sandals resort sometime soon.
Thanks again!

You are so efficient ....Sandals was wonderful. It's definitely a carefree environment and way to get married without the hassle. Eleven of us took the aqua aerobics class....what fun that was!

If we go on other trips we will get you to organize it for us.

Sandals Dunns River, Jamaica

Dunn's River was absolutely gorgeous! The grounds crew kept it pristine at all times! The views were absolutely breathtaking! The restaurants were wonderful....and when we didn't get full we ordered room service or ate at the all night grille or pizzeria! The staff was extremely friendly and made our stay a very welcome and open atmosphere at all times. They are extremely eager to please and want you to be happy! The poolside, beach, and night time activities were a BLAST! We didn't do so well at the newlywed game...but we got a free bottle of rum (which is always good)! :) Memorable Travels was such a HUGE help! They made sure there were no worries for me and everything went just as planned! And it did!!!! We will definitely use Memorable Travels again and again whether planning an anniversary trip or a family trip!

Also, we requested the platinum china and have already received it and it's beautiful! It only took 2 weeks!

Thanks for everything! You were great!

Sandals Royal Caribbean, Jamaica
Butler Suite Level

Our stay at Sandals Royal Caribbean, for our Honeymoon, was nothing less than magnificent. We stayed in the Butler suite, and we must say, its the only way to travel. We had a Butler 24 hours a day, who was wonderful. Although, the Butlers do accept tips, they make it worth every dime. We didn't have to schedule anything, Okley, our Butler, made all of our reservations for any excursions we chose. Staying in the Butler suite came with many advantages above other guests. You are taken to express check-in/out where you are served with champagne and baked goods, you have a cell phone that is given to you by your Butler which allows you to contact him directly, your Butler escorts you to dinings, excursions, and is always available.

The staff at Sandals Royal Caribbean is wonderful. Everyone is very friendly and hospitable. We enjoyed our stay so much, we intend to go back. The grounds were unlike anything we have ever seen. The views were breathtaking and as well as the weather, not a drop of rain the entire week. If you are looking for a wonderful vacation destination and want to be pampered around the clock...stay at Sandals Royal Caribbean in the Butler Suite!

We would also like to thank Memorable Travels for their outstanding service. Our consultant went above and beyond anything we could have asked for. We will definitely recommend your agency to anyone who is looking to travel.

Beaches Boscobel, Jamaica

Thank you for the rum & snacks and the card you sent! That was very thoughtful!

We had a great time in Jamaica. Avery loved the Sesame Street character activities. Maurice and I really liked snorkeling, kayaking, and of course the food & drink!

I did have to present my marriage certificate in both countries in case anyone else asks you about that. You might want to tell people to bring a watch. Our cell phones didn't work, and there were no clocks anywhere.

DESTINATION WEDDING
AT COUPLES SWEPT AWAY, NEGRIL, JAMAICA

... a bride's afterthoughts!

I just wanted to thank you so much for everything that you have done for John and me. Our trip was perfect.

The plane rides were even great-we got a window seat every time! I could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding in a more beautiful place than in Jamaica. Everyone was so nice there, I felt like a movie star that is catered to everyday. The food was outstanding wherever we went. I loved Feathers and the Palms the best because of the atmosphere. We stayed at the Cabana Grill all the time for the jerk chicken and the media noche sandwich.

Our room was gorgeous in a perfect location. We would open the double doors to the veranda and listen to the ocean while having breakfast in bed. It was like a dream in paradise, that is the only way to describe it. The sunsets (like you said) and the
ocean were unforgettable. I loved everything about it.

The wedding arrangements went so smooth too. I loved the basic wedding package so much I didn't want anything extra. It was so pretty. I liked how we had options in everything. I loved my flowers! (too bad I couldn't bring them back though) My wedding was gorgeous. The camera guys were so nice and funny, I really liked Tamika too. Our photographer did an excellent job on the pictures. I loved them!!!!

We got your note in our room! That was really sweet!

Well, I have rambled on so much! I will send some pictures for you to see and share with your clients that want to go there--I highly recommend it! In the future, John and I would like to go back and you will be the first one that I will call to set it up!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Sandals Negril, Jamaica

My wife and I just returned from our fourth trip with Memorable Travels. We both love the Sandals Resorts and highly recommend them. We have stayed at Sandals Ocho Rios twice. If you are planning on going during a busy time of the year Sandals Ocho Rios is a better resort to stay at. It is much larger and has bigger pools.

While in Negril we also visited the Beaches Sandy Bay that is next door to Sandals Negril as well as the Beaches Negril. The Beaches Negril has a water park and we both liked it better than the Beaches Sandy Bay.

Our trip started out a little rough because of Hurricane Ernesto. We were originally scheduled to leave on Sunday August 27th. Delta cancelled our flight and that is when the fun began. Our travel consultant did a good job working with Delta and Sandals. We eventually just moved everything up a day so we got to stay our original six nights. I can tell you at least one of the couples that we flew down with did not know until Wednesday what their final plans were because all of this occurred on the weekend. I have never had trouble getting in touch with my travel consultant no matter what day of the week it is.

Thanks for another GREAT trip.

Sandals Grande Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Our honeymoon was a paradise fairy tale. We had a wonderful time in Jamaica. The staff was the best- they truly made you feel like royalty. Our accommodations were dreamy. Our fridge was stocked with sodas, water, and Red Stripe. There was also a variety of alcohol in the room. The restaurant food was fabulous. We have done nothing but write rave reviews about all the Sandals Employees we've met- no complaints whatsoever!!

Thanks Memorable Travels for making it possible!

Riu Ocho Rios, Jamaica

I thought the RIU Ocho Rios was great! We really had no complaints. The drive from the airport was somewhat lengthy, but it gave us a chance to see what "real" Jamaica looks like. Our resort, as you know, was still less than a year old when we went, so everything was beautiful. The atmosphere was great! The beach was beautiful and always clean. The two pools were also clean and beautiful. The staff was great and there were always activities going on througout the day. I was amazed at the caliber of the entertainment staff, their performances were great. The buffet was average, but the specialty restaurants were great. It was a hassle to get up sooo early in the morning to make reservations, but well worth it.

Sandals Whitehouse, Jamaica

I can't thank you enough times. We had a wonderful time at Sandals Whitehouse. It was beautiful, peaceful, romantic just to name a few. The food was great, the service was exceptional. We had good weather except for Friday it rained until about lunch time. We didn't do any tours but were never bored with all the on site activities. I would recommend your services and Sandals to everybody. Another thank you to you for leaving enough layover time for us so we didn't miss our connecting flights and weren't even worried we were going to. I am attaching two photos of us at Sandals one in the main pool and the other going to dinner one night. Thank you again and take care.

Couples Sans Souci, Jamaica

Thanks for helping us book our trip to Couples Sans Souci. I would recommend this resort to anyone. The resort was full while we were there but with 35 acres and only a 140 rooms it never felt crowded. The food was great. There was a such a variety that we didn't get to try everything. We especially loved the in room dining. Sometimes we would order it more than once in one night. We ate at Casanova, the Italian restaurant on Wednesday. We had a four course candlelight dinner with lobster. Not something we are used to. We loved it. The resort was absolutely beautiful. There were lush gardens, hammocks, and many different sea views at every corner. Our room was A25 which was a top floor corner beachfront suite. We had a view of the pool and beach and a huge jacuzzi bathtub. The beach was small but private and their was a lot to do from swimming to canoeing, to sailing, etc. All included. We liked that the water stayed shallow for a long distance and we were able to swim pretty far out and could still stand.

We did three excursions; Island Village Shopping (included in resort price), Dunn's River Falls (included in price), and Blue Mountain Downhill Bike Tour. The shopping was OK. We loved Dunn's River Falls. We also loved the Blue Mountain tour, which was a 20-mile downhill bike ride in the Blue Mountains. However, the bus ride to the Blue Mountains was horrible. We both car carsick because of our driver's erratic driving and all the construction. It was a 2 1/2 hour ride. But we felt it was worth it as we got to see the beautiful mountains and another side of Jamaica.

The service we received was great all week. Twice they sent champagne to our room which we thought was a nice touch, even though we weren't honeymooners or celebrating an anniversary. They would try to accommodate any reasonable request.

This was our first all-inclusive vacation, but won't be our last. I would love to go back sometime, but I think we will first go to one of the Couples Resorts in Negril so we can see the beautiful beach there. We feel that Couples Resorts are a great value for their inclusions and service. Thanks for you for all you did to make our vacation great.

Sandals Whitehouse, Jamaica

Our wedding in Jamaica was everything I had dreamed it would be. The resort was beautiful, the people were incredibly friendly, and we couldn't’t have had a better time. Our trip to Jamaica was a fairytale. It has never been so hard to come back to reality than it was after our trip to Whitehouse. Thank you so much for helping make our wedding dreams come true. I really appreciate all the updates you gave us, and the fact that you answered my daily emails without the slightest hint of being annoyed! We are already ready to plan our next trip!

Sandals Montego Bay, Jamaica

Hello! Our names are Brad and Amanda, and as a married couple now, we will say our honeymoon was WONDERFUL!!! We traveled to Jamaica and stayed at Sandals Montego Bay. Our stay was 6 days and 5 nights..............and that wasn't long enough! This was actually our first trip out of the states, so it was an experience we will never forget. The atmosphere in Jamaica was so relaxing and enjoyable. The sandy white beach and the aqua colored water was beautiful. We got to do so many things while we were there. Snorkeling, tanning, a raft ride on the Martha Brae River, a trip to Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville, traveling to the neighboring Sandals Royal Caribbean, attending the beach parties, etc. It was all a blast because there was always someway to have fun.

We couldn't have been treated any nicer than the way we were treated. Everyone who was involved in this trip was fabulous - from our fantastic travel agent Memorable Travels/Gogo Travels, to the Sandals airport crew, and all the staff at Sandals Montego Bay. If we could only explain the respect and kindness we received. It was truly GREAT! If you want to be treated like a prince and princess, take a trip to Sandals and ask Memorable Travels to be you agent!

Sandals Negril, Jamaica

J. and I had a wonderful time in Negril.  The accommodations were outstanding, the food was delicious and the beach was gorgeous.  We definitely had an awesome honeymoon, and couldn’t have asked for anything more!  I think we gained at least 5 pounds while we were there!  It very well may have been the first time in a long time for the both of us to sit down and consciously eat 3 meals a day – usually breakfast and lunch for us are on the go!  Our trip was very relaxing; while we didn’t venture off the resort (except to go to Margaritaville) we did go snorkeling.  It was J.’s first time, so he was a little timid but I think he enjoyed it just the same.

Everyone was extremely friendly, especially the playmakers!  We participated in several activities and did the water aerobics every morning at 11AM.  I did close my eyes traveling to and from the airport – driving on the “wrong” side of the road and vehicle on small, narrow streets was an experience! 

Thank you also for the information on the points we’ve earned through Sandals.  J. and I are already in discussion about a trip for our one year anniversary, so maybe we’ll use the points for that trip!

Thanks again,

We can't thank you enough for planning out trip to Tammy and Andrews Wedding in Jamaica. The folks at Dunn's River went overboard to make out stay the best there is.

We will definitely be going back, and hoping you will arrange our plans. In fact next year we are thinking about heading to Alaska probably in June. so look for our call for help. Thank You, and Thank You again, and again for planning such a wonderful trip.

Sandals Grande Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Sandals Grande Ocho Rios was absolutely wonderful! The staff, the resort, and the atmosphere were exactly what we were hoping for for our honeymoon. Sandals offered plenty of opportunity for romance (we had a sea-side couples massage, candlelight dinner on the beach, and sunset cruise down the Jamaican coast). Sandals also offered us the much needed opportunity to relax and have fun after all the wedding planning chaos. We danced in a dance competition (although we didn't make it very far, ha), climbed waterfalls, and met wonderful other newlyweds as we sang the night away in the piano bar. It was truly the best time of our lives!

We received your card today. That was very thoughtful. You have been so helpful throughout our entire wedding planning. You have made our honeymoon a truly unforgettable experience.

Without a doubt, we will definitely be recommending you to all of our friends and family! In fact, we are talking about a family cruise in a couple years, and you will be the first person we call!

Thank you,
