    Nancy is the Best!

    Everything was just wonderful. We've been to a Riu in Jamaica and a Dreams Onyx in Punta Cana, and Sandals Royal Bahamian had hands down the best food. Everyone was so friendly. Our room was not only gorgeous but so clean. We had a blast. Our massages and candle-light dinner on the beach were very special honeymoon touches. Thank you to Nancy for all her assistance in coordinating! After our big day, this island getaway was exactly what we needed.

    Nancy is amazing!

    Nancy and her staff are absolutely wonderful! When I started the process of planning a destination wedding, I contacted MANY travel agents and right off the bat Nancy was the most responsive, most experienced, and most informative. Since booking my wedding, Nancy has been nothing short of amazing to work with. She even put together quick getaway for my Fiancé’ and I to do some wedding planning onsite at El Dorado Royale Casitas. Nancy definitely has the back of all of her brides and works non-stop to get things done quickly, efficiently, and at the best price.

    Stress Free Wedding Planning

    We were married in Cancun (Riviera Maya) in August and at first planning a destination wedding seemed very intimidating. With so many destinations and resorts to choose from, we really didn't know where to start. That's were Nancy at My Island Getaways came in - from picking the destination and the resort to helping with communication between us and the resort wedding coordinators, Nancy made the process easy and stress free. She took care of booking resort reservations for each of our guests, organizing airport transfers, and communicating details to our guests so that we wouldn't have to. All we had to do was show up! Nancy was always available to answer my many questions and responded to e-mails and calls promptly. Our wedding was an absolute dream and we couldn't have planned it so seamlessly without Nancy!

    My fiancé and I had been researching and trying to find the best place for a destination wedding. Jodi from my Island Getaways has been soooo amazing! Very honest and helpful in so many ways. We found the perfect place for our wedding and are super excited. She is still in contact and helping with any additional questions. They are so worth it!!

    Destination Wedding with Island Getaways

    We had our destination wedding at Generations Spa & Resort in Riviera Maya, Mexico. We chose this resort per recommendation from our amazing travel agent, Nancy Finn with Island Getaways. We worked together for over a year and it was a relatively seamless process. She was very responsive and showed a lot of care for our big day. She even surprised us with some upgrades e,g, limousine to and from the Cancun airport, and a room upgrade. We highly recommend her for all your travel needs especially if you're considering a destination wedding.

    Amazing help booking our honeymoon

    We booked through Nancy Finn from Island Getaways and we were so pleased with all her knowledge and help booking. My husband and I had the best honeymoon while staying at El Dorado Sensimar resort. We were located in the villas right beside the Beach BBQ restaurant. Working with a travel agent is so worth it; it definitely made us feel very comfortable with where we were going and how we were spending our money. We had an amazing room located steps from the beach we were showered with champagne, fresh fruit, chocolates, deserts and a decorated room just about every night. Nancy also made it possible for us to have a direct transport to and from the airport giving us less time in the car and more time at the resort. I highly recommend booking your next vacation or honeymoon with her.

    We booked our destination wedding in Riviera Maya through Island Getaways. We were extremely happy with the service we received. Nancy and her team were very responsive and easy to reach throughout the planning process. We thought that having so many guests traveling internationally would be a chore, but Nancy made it very easy. She really knows her stuff when it comes to providing a luxury experience in the Caribbean. Every aspect of our trip and accommodations were consistent with the way they were described to us. They also provided excellent customer service to our guests and family, which was equally important to us. I would definitely use Nancy's expertise to help plan another one of my vacations. Shout out to Santanna, who was also readily available to assist us.

    My husband and I were looking for a travel agent for our March 19th-25th honeymoon. At first we preferred to book local travel agent in the Chicagoland area. After reading reviews of several travel agents, we decided to take a risk and branch out of the area. Nancy Finn was the first non-local travel agent I came across. After speaking with Nancy, we decided to book her as our travel agent. Nancy was extremely patient, professional and kind. In addition, she provided suggestions for different resorts to pick for our honeymoon. We eventually settled on Sandals Regency La Toc in Saint Lucia. Nancy and her assistant Savannah made the entire planning process extremely easy. We were so impressed with their customer service, that we decided to use them again for our next two trips. I would highly recommend booking Nancy as your travel agent!

    I used Charmaine George with Island Getaways to help us plan our honeymoon. She did an awesome job! She helped us pick a resort that was exactly what we were looking for. We stayed at Sandals Regency La Toc in St. Lucia and it was amazing, everything you could ask for on your honeymoon. Charmaine also did a great job helping us when we ran into issues with our flights being delayed and missing connections. She seamlessly helped us cancel our old flights, book new ones, and even adjust the dates of our trip so that we didn't miss a night at the resort. She coordinated our overnight hotels for our layovers and figured out every little detail you could possibly think of. We were so grateful for her. Without all of her help it would have been a nightmare for us to get it all figured out. She took a terrible situation and made it much better for us! I will definitely be utilizing her again in the future for other vacations.

    Our honeymoon was truly an amazing and forever memorable experience thanks to Charmaine George of Island Getaways! Being the Karisma Resorts GI Wedding, Honeymoon & Anniversary Specialist she arranged for incredible honeymoon treats including champagne upon arrival, flowers, massages, special romantic meals, and a private picnic on the beach just to name a few. Everything about El Dorado Maroma Riviera Maya Palafitos was mind blowing; incredible food, superior customer service, and simply a beyond perfect beach and resort. We very highly recommend Charmaine George and the Palafitos!  Charmaine is very knowledgeable, kind, and warm. She was extremely helpful and attentive every step of the way from meeting, to booking, to emails, final details and follow up. She was there for us always. Everyone at El Dorado Maroma Riviera Maya Palafitos was truly wonderful and exceptional as well.

    Nancy and her assistant were outstanding! Both were so easy to work with and both were so nice and friendly. I was never stressed about travel accommodations for us or any of our guests. Communication was quick and easy, I never had to call or email to follow up on a question or concern that I had. Nancy even helped to find specials and deals for our guests based on the time that they were booking their travel. This was the first time that we traveled with our infant daughter, and Nancy made sure that we were not worried about proper transportation and the safety of our daughter. Thank you so much for helping us make our wedding a stress free and memorable experience!

    Aimee with Island Getaways was absolutely fantastic! She helped my husband and I plan our Honeymoon in St. Lucia and her knowledge and advice were invaluable. She suggested that we split our trip between 2 resorts and we are SO happy that we did! We got to see so much of the island and through Aimee, we got to eat at the best restaurant we've ever been to. We even had a whole list of excursions and activities to try while we were there - not a single one was a bust! She is incredibly organized and on top of her game; communication was quick and efficient and I would HIGHLY recommend Aimee to anyone searching for a phenomenal travel agent! Sufficient to say, vacationing has never been easier when you have someone like Aimee setting everything up for you. We are so appreciative of her hard work and will absolutely use her for our future travels :)

    Our destination wedding at the Sandals Royal Caribbean resort in Montego Bay, Jamaica was an absolute dream! The agent that assisted my wife and I was Charmaine George, who I am pleased to say that she's our permanent travel agent and I highly recommend her. This was our very first international trip and Charmaine made all arrangements very seamless!

    Charmaine George was our travel agent for our honeymoon to St. Lucia and we are SO relieved and thankful we found her. She made the whole booking process easy and stress free with Sandals. She also booked our helicopter ride for us and then when our flight was delayed she contacted the helicopter company for us and rearranged our reservations last minute. She also contacted the resort for us instead of us having to worry about communicating with everyone among the stress of our delayed flight. We arrived to our honeymoon suite to find a thoughtful note from Charmaine too! We loved our experience with Sandals and if we ever book with them again (which we hope to in the not so far off future) we will use Charmaine!

    Island Getaways is the best travel agency to use when booking an island honeymoon! Nancy Finn helped my husband and I book our trip to Sandals Emerald Bay in the Bahamas and we had a wonderful time there! The entire staff at Island Getaways is easy to work with, very professional, highly responsive and went the extra mile to make sure that our stay was phenomenal. Nancy even wrote a letter on our behalf to the GM to ensure that we would be well taken care of during our stay. I cannot say enough good things about Island Getaways - they really know the resorts inside and out. We liked using them so much that when my husband and I booked our next Sandals trip I contacted Nancy and she made sure that we got a discount that was not originally given to us when we booked it because we are returning customers of Sandals! Thank you Nancy and to your staff for being so great! We will continue to use you for all of our island vacations!

    We had the pleasure of working with Charmaine from Island Getaways. She was very helpful from the start, she booked our hotel as well as our guests' accommodations. Charmaine answered any questions that came up regarding travel or hotel. She also helped me communicate with my wedding coordinator from the hotel and would clarify things for me if they were not clear. She would answer all my emails and calls within a couple of hours. She was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend her to anyone that is planning a wedding.

    Honeymoon goals

    My husband and I successfully planned the most epic destination wedding. And though a girl never reveals all her secrets, I feel that everyone needs Nancy in their life. Nancy handled our entire guest list with all their reservation needs with such ease-or so she made it seem that way. Our family and friends revel so much about Nancy, we knew we made the right choice. She even was able to organize a post wedding day excursion for our entire group-talk about herding cats! She was even able to handle a pushy future mother in law with such class! I can’t thank Nancy enough, for helping to pull off such an amazing day in our lives!

    Nancy Finn and her team at My Island Getaways were amazing planning our Honeymoon! Nancy helped us pick the perfect destination and it was exactly what we wanted and more! Nancy had been to Sandals Grande Antigua many times so she was able to give us first hand information about the resort, the rooms and the best things to do around the area! The resort was amazing, the employees were fabulous and the island was beautiful just like Nancy described! I highly recommend using My Island Getaways and look forward to using them again in the future!
