Hi Elizabeth, Thought I would drop you a short note to let you know how the holiday is going. Well, so far, it has been fabulous. The choice of accommodation in Hong Kong, The Gold Coast and Adelaide could not have been better. In fact, we were offered complimentary upgrades in both Hong Kong and Adelaide - pure luxury!! All the arrangements have worked out perfectly. This morning, we collected our rental car and drove from Adelaide to Robe, our first stop along The Great Ocean Road. Robe is such a quaint place - it reminds me of some of the little villages along the coast in New England. The accommodation, Robe House, is amazing. It was actually the first property built in Robe in 1846 and retains all of it’s original charm. Eleanor had an unforgettable 60th birthday party last Sunday with extended family. Thank you again for all your hard work in putting together our itinerary.

Hotel Sol Port, Cambrills. Costa Dorada. September 2019. A lovely hotel. We went half board and I must say that the food was superb. Each night had a different theme so we sampled Asian, Mediterranean, Caribbean, Western, Catalan food. Beautiful breakfast each morning with lots of fresh fruit and real, squeezed orange juice. Rooms were very good, very clean, excellent walk-in shower. Staff were a credit to the hotel......cheerful, polite and helpful. Pool is small but the beautiful beach is just a few minutes walk away. Our room was 404 which only got sun in the morning. Pool view rooms get afternoon sun. Our room had a minibar but we just used it as a small fridge to keep our water cool. Wine and drinks were very reasonably priced in the hotel.

Dear Elizabeth Just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help sorting out our city break. We had an absolute ball. It is a beautiful city. We clocked up 58 kms in four days. Our hotel was really central so within walking distance of anywhere we needed to go. Once again thanks. Esther

Just to say that the Atrium Palace and Thalasso in Rhodes is an excellent place to stay, meals & facilities onsite were excellent, also the travel to & from the airport via Taxi is the only way, because if you travel with the TUI bus you stop at every hotel along the way, also on the return leg left us with a head start on the main buses on the return trip on Saturday night/ Sunday morning as the crowds in the airport returning were enormous and therefore long queues at the passport controls and booking in! Taxi to Lindos from the Hotel is 15 Euros return is 10, I assume the hotel charge 5 for arranging same, excellent rooftop restaurants in Lindos, spoilt for choice!. Also a car hire for a small car for the day is 50 Euro arranged in the hotel via a car hire desk (Marathon Hire), I would recommend this for a day trip to Rhodes Town. Just one negative, the onsite double room is suitable only for two adults, the third adult sleeping on a very good sofa bed is not great, ok for a small child! Thanks for the usual efficient manner in organising the above, everyone enjoyed the break.

Hi Mandy - Honeymoon was amazing we absolutely loved secrets of the vine Cancun it was absolutely amazing!! Food was incredible and staff were so helpful and lovely! Hotel was beautiful we didn't really want to leave it to be honest! I couldn't say one negative thing about it at all!! Cruise was fab really lovely getting off all the different stops, our cabin was nice and was so good having the balcony I would recommend to anyone to make sure they get a balcony as it's so nice sitting out in your own space as the ship can seem pretty busy at times especially at breakfast and lunch time and only other maybe negative points about cruise would be that our dinner was set for 9.15 every night which was a little late and at same table beside same people with same waiter etc so this gets a bit repetitive and staff in generally weren't overly friendly but upon talking to other people on the ship who cruise a lot they say this might be an Msc thing but overall cruise was great food was pretty good and the seaside ship was lovely and modern!! Embarking and disembarking was also pretty organised and they had buses waiting for us when we got off to take us straight to the airport which was handy! We had an amazing honeymoon and I would just like to say a massive thank you for organising it! You were absolutely brilliant and we are very grateful!! Kind regards, Aisleen

My friend & I have just returned from a great 4-night break in Albufiera. A lovely family run hotel with nice pool area, clean rooms & friendly staff. The Old Town of Albufiera was 5 min walk with fantastic nightlife & shops.  Margaret understood our requirements and met our expectations perfectly. I highly recommend Carefree Travel for its professional, knowledgeable & friendly staff. I'm always confident of a satisfactory outcome. Looking forward to booking my next break !

Richard, Elizabeth, and staff Thank you for organizing our recent trip to Crown Plaza in Portugal. The hotel was indeed excellent, with all the added touches which made our stay more enjoyable. (example the use of beach towels daily, free water left in the bedroom) Champagne breakfast - what more could we have asked for; we would definitely recommend Crown Plaza!! Location of hotel was excellent in that it was approximately 2 minutes walk to the beach and approximately 5 minute down to the marina where there are lovely restaurants and local shops. A special thanks to Elizabeth for organizing trip . Also to Claire (the new team member) she was very helpful and will be an asset to Carefree. Best wishes, Claire

Hi Elizabeth - On behalf of Gerry and myself I want to say thank you for our wonderful holiday in Rhodes. We had a terrific holiday, the hotel was fabulous with a huge variety of great food, excellent service and entertainment every night. The staff were friendly and efficient. We were able to walk into Rhodes and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. We went on two trips, one to Lindos and a boat trip to the island of Symi. I would rate the hotel as the best we have ever stayed in. The weather was perfect, sunshine every day with a lovely gentle sea breeze. What a change to come back to the present weather. Thank you again for your excellent recommendation Kind regards Teresa & Gerry Mc Mahon.  5* Atrium Platinum Hotel - Ixia, Rhodes, Deluxe Side Sea View Room on Half Board Basis 2019 Certificate of Excellence & 2019 Travellers Choice Award Winners

Danube Cruise with Riviera & 3 Nights post cruise in Budapest Hi Rosie, just wanted to tell you the cruise and stay in Budapest was a wonderful experience in spite of changeable weather. We were looked after so well from being met at airport to being returned to it. The Oscar Wilde is a lovely ship with comfortable rooms, lots of food and attentive staff. The trips were well managed with excellent local guides who were funny and knowledgeable. On board we were given talks about the area and shown video to prepare us for next city. The Museum Hotel in Budapest was in a good place close to centre and was also comfortable with friendly staff. Because we were celebrating our anniversary we were included in a reception on board and at the hotel were given a bottle of bubbly. Thank you for all your work in sorting out arrangements. - Anne

Casa de la Flora - Khao Lak | Elephant Hills - Phuket | Vijitt Resort - Phuket | Marriott Marquis - Dubai I can’t believe it is all over!! What a honeymoon, it was simply amazing! Casa Del La Flora was out of this world loved every second of the 5 night stay! The villas, the food the service the location everything was just 10/10. If we ever go back we will definitely return here. 10000% a honeymoon hotel I think there was only 36 villas it was simply stunning. Elephant hills was simply amazing! Everything is planned to a T - from canoe trips to hikes to cooking lessons it was a crammed packed three days, an experience we will never ever forget! You definitely have to recommend it to people who are going to Thailand!! The Vijitt resort was nice, nothing quite like our first hotel! It’s massive, very very very hilly, kind of in the middle of nowhere. We ate there the first night food was not good so not of a trek to get anywhere the hotel leads to a main road that has no footpath to walk to local bars / restaurants. We literally got ate alive by mosquitoes lol the hotel itself was nice, maybe a little dated but good all the same. We made use of the shuttles they did to local towns etc which was really good. Dubai - wow the hotel, the service everything was amazing! We spent most our nights in the hotel bars / restaurants which were all fab! I think there was 14 of them in the hotel itself!! From myself and Sean can’t thank you enough for all your help & guidance along the way! I could cry that it is all over lol Next big trip we go on, we will definitely be in to see you again!
