Kelly's reviews
Kelly was fantastic to work with while planning my last minute business trip to Maui. She was incredibly efficient and handled all the details with ease, even accommodating my additional requests without any hassle. The hotel she chose was perfect! And saving money to stay within the business budget I was working with was even better. I couldn’t have been happier with the experience, and I will visit the hotel again upon returning to Maui thanks to her. Highly recommend Kelly for any travel needs!

Working with Kelly to book our cruise was an absolute breeze from the very beginning her attention to detail was impressive. She kept us informed every step of the way, providing timely updates and clear instructions on what we needed to do her knowledge about the cruise what to pack for the theme nights and how to manage the app was invaluable. We felt confident and ready for our trip. Her communication was always prompt and professional. We couldn’t have asked for a better travel advisor than Kelly and we wholeheartedly. Recommend her to anyone planning a trip on land or see.

Huge shoutout to travel guru, Kelly, who booked the whole thing — she was very communicative, organized and made it feel like a breeze! I had so many questions and she answered all of them and gave me tips prior to boarding that were really helpful.
