Fiji Adventure Getaway
"From the minute I called Jacintha with Island Getaways she put my mind at ease about planning the trip of a lifetime for my honeymoon.  Her professionalism, detailed knowledge of the Pacific Islands and friendly personable manner immediately won my confidence that she was the right person to plan my trip.  Throughout the entire trip process she was amazing.   She answered every question I had which put my mind completely at ease.  Every detail of my trip was planned to perfection all I had to do was sit back and enjoy it!"

Cook Islands Adventure Getaway
"Working with Jacintha is really a pleasure. She really listens to your preferences and makes suggestions that are pleasing because they are informed. Her service is top notch: first rate concierge level with every detail taken care of. Jacintha told me all I had to do was show up and she was right. It was the vacation of a lifetime and I can hardly wait to do it again."

Amanda Johnson, Wheatland, California
Island Getaways (several)
"From the knee deep steps of the Great Wall of China to the heavenly Ice Fields of Alaska, both trips were effortless and memorable because of your keen travel experience and attention to detail. 
 
How many travel agents go out of their way to send chocolate dipped strawberries and sparkling champagne to their clients while on vacation?  I can't tell you how that extra touch set the tone for my Alaskan Cruise.  Thank you for going above and beyond the call of duty. 
 
With my request for flight arrangements to Thailand. I wouldn't know where to begin.  I am fully at ease with the flights secured. 
 
You are indeed the travel goddess. I know that I can always count on your efficiency, reliability and travel savviness in planning my vacations or flight arrangements. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Eunice Cerezo, Elk Grove, California
"Jacintha is among the very best travel professionals that I have ever encountered. She is extremely knowledgeable about destinations and is always focused on the customer's needs. I have used her services for my Canyon Ranch retreats and she has been able (and willing!) to accommodate travel changes due to my hectic work schedule. I highly recommend Jacintha for all of your travel needs - she is phenomenal!"
Sandra Lauterbach, Brookline, MA

Travel Adventures through Island Getaways
"Jacintha has helped us schedule several idyllic spa vacations at Canyon Ranch—a great investment in our health and wellbeing. She has also scheduled our Scandinavia and Russia Cruise with Azamara and Rhone Valley and Provence River Cruise on AMA Waterways that were memorable experiences. We appreciate the time and meticulous attention she provides responding to our preferences, from selecting tours we will enjoy to advice about hotel and stateroom selections. It’s always a pleasure working with her."

Island Getaways 10th Anniversary Cruise
"The trip was planned so thoroughly and with attention to every detail, all we had to do was show up. From the pre-boarding process through communal dinners with a celebratory flair, Jacintha and Island Getaways surpassed even the high standards of the five-star cruise we sailed on.
 With Island Getaways, it isn’t only about finding the right travel opportunities, it really is about consistent and thorough care. From an awareness of upgrade offers to the ins and outs of a ship, our trip was all the more enjoyable and relaxing because Jacintha had taken care of us – before, during, and after."

"
Over the last four years we have had the opportunity to enjoy two retreats at Canyon Ranch, three cruises on Holland America and a great four day adventure in Walt Disney World in Florida, all meticulously planned by you. You’ve secured significant discounts on many of the travel packages you’ve provided us and given many good tips based on your own extensive experience in each of the venues we’ve visited.
We appreciate the personal touch you’ve applied to every trip you’ve planned for us and we have been very grateful for your attention to detail that is so helpful even for the most seasoned traveler. You’ve really spoiled us and it’s hard to imagine traveling any time in the future without your very professional and personalized assistance."

Gourmet Getaway at Canyon Ranch
The Chef's Week was WONDERFUL. I loved that we got to experience the cooking of some really great guest chefs. For example, Beau MacMillen from the Elements Restaurant at the Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort - an Iron Chef winner! And the off-site dinner at Janos was to die for. We dined in the Janos private wine cellar. Wonderful company, wonderful food, wonderful time. SPECTACULAR!
Christine Berry, El Dorado Hills, California
Gourmet Getaway at Canyon Ranch
The week at Canyon Ranch was unbelievable! What a great time I had visiting with my friends. The most memorable part of this retreat was the sessions with the nutrition department. They were an affirmation of what I was and what I needed to be a healthier individual both physically and mentally.
Dorothy D. Tuttle, Ewa Beach, Hawaii
Canyon Ranch Retreat
"How do you describe the feeling you get from a deep exhale and your shoulders detaching themselves from your ears?  My time at Canyon Ranch was not only relaxing, it was healing and exciting all at the same time.  I imagine that being at Canyon Ranch is like being the Queen of England – every day you choose what you truly desire to do, eat and be – not what you “have” to de, eat and be.  I will continue to regenerate every year at Canyon Ranch through Island Getaways because of the service and care I get from Island Getaways."

Tama J. Kieves, Denver, Coloroado

Alaska Cruise
Thank you Jacintha for an amazing Alaskan Cruise. Our cabin was beautiful and the arrangements you made for our entire family to be near each other worked perfectly. It was great to just show up and enjoy and not have to worry about the details of planning – you handled them all. We appreciated all the tips about excursions and ship amenities – we knew exactly what to expect.

We’ll definitely be calling you for our next family vacation!
Kelli Wilson, Roseville, California
