Thank you again. Bob and Susan H. Hampton, NH *************************************** Dear Dave, Thank you so much for your help in planning our trip to the Aventura Spa Palace! We had our best vacation there and we enjoyed all the perks of being "Members" of the Palace Resorts. I was a little hesitant at first in purchasing your week membership off of eBay, but you quickly set my mind at ease by offering your phone number and requesting that I call you with any concerns or questions. You answered all of them and gave me a better insight on planning our vacation. The staff at the Aventura Spa Palace take very good care of you while you are there and if you don't have a good time it's your own fault! We have already passed your information on to several friends and gave you the highest recommendation! Thanks again! Brenda and Derek Clinton Township, MI *************************************** Evelyn and Dave, We had a great time at Aventura, the weather was great. Since we stayed there before we knew what to expect. Food and drink were excellent as was the service. Nice touch with a note before we left, on check in etc. Would do business with you again. Thanks, Chris & Ann Cleary Liverpool, NY *************************************** Dear Dave, Casey and I had an amazing honeymoon at Aventura Spa Palace. When we got there and they realized that we were part of the member package, they showed us how much more was actually included than even a honeymoon package. Our room was beautiful, the staff is wonderful, there are unlimited ways to have fun just at the resort, and the food was very good at all of the restaurants. The most amazing part of the package in our minds though were the extra amenities included. Our spa services that were free-back massages, manicures, and pedicures were all amazing. And, all of our tours were free because we were part of your package. We went to the Mayan ruins and Playa Del Carmen for a day and had a great time. We saw some of the resorts in Playa that we were thinking about staying at and were very pleased with our decision to stay at Aventura. We also visited a few of the other Palace resorts where we ate, had drinks, and laid by the pool, all for free. Overall, I cannot say we have one complaint (besides both catching colds at certain points) and we will 100%, positively be contacting you again in the future. I have already recommended you to several of my friends. Finally, I appreciate all of your help and support throughout the whole process - it was wonderful booking the trip through such nice people. Thanks. Matt and Casey L. Gainesville, FL *************************************** Hi David, The Vacation was awesome!! We stayed at Aventura Palace and it was amazing. Everything went so smoothly, and having the Members treatment was great. You were wonderful and I truly appreciate all your help. I am going to book all of my future vacations through you and I am telling all my friends and family to go to you! Thank You so much. Donald R. Wenner, Bethlehem, PA *************************************** David, Thank you so much for the opportunity to be your guest as a VIP Member at the adults only all inclusive Aventura Spa Palace Resort. We were treated like Royalty with our silver wrist bands. We did not even know that most other people did not have the same privileges as us until more than half way through the trip. We sat through the membership presentation the day before we left and understood what a great deal we had received. We got numerous free bees to boot! Our spa suite was great. The resort was immaculate. Service above and beyond our expectations. Entertainment was awesome. Very, very memorable for our 25Th anniversary. I'll be looking for a Presidential suite deal in the future. My wife and I will definitely go back again! It will be almost impossible to beat this resort in all categories for future vacations. Have people call me for our testimonial. 559-322-9884. Ask for David or April. Great job DP. Thanks again forever. DB & AB Fresno, CA *************************************** Hi David Review of Aventura Spa / Feb 2005 Stay This was our 3rd stay in 1 1/2 years at the Palace Resorts and it won't be our last! The accommodations and service are exceptional, beginning with the transportation provided to and from the resorts by Chaza Travel, to the oversized ocean view rooms, the beautiful and relaxing pools and beach-front amenities, nightly entertainment/shows and the variety of restaurants/cuisines that will surely satisfy every guest. And it's all covered under one low "all-inclusive" rate. Traveling as a guest of a member, there are added benefits, including manicure, pedicure and massage for each guest. Additionally, many tours are included in the member package. We really enjoyed the Tulum / Xpu-ha tour and the Isla Mujeres island excursion. Additionally, when you stay at one resort, you have a "pass" to play at all resorts. The resorts offer free daily shuttle service between the properties so you can enjoy the variety of amenities and restaurants at all their locations. We found this particularly useful when we brought our kids last summer and they took advantage of the bus shuttle to the Cancun Palace Resort locations, which offer a little more city life, for those that want the added excitement. If you have any doubts about the resort, check out the Apple Vacations web site and you will see that it has Apple's highest ranking for "all-inclusive" vacation spots in Riviera Maya. You will also see that they cannot beat the rates offered by this member. Patti Molitor Praire Grove, IL *************************************** Hi Dave! We just returned from our honeymoon at Aventura Palace, and had a wonderful time! We are definitely going back, and may even become members sometime in the future! I just wanted to thank you for all of your help with our honeymoon! Sincerely, Bill & Kattia Philadelphia, PA *************************************** Hey Dave, The trip was better than expected. Aventura Palace was a very nice place that we are planning to visit again. I don’t think anything could have made the stay more enjoyable. We will definitely get a hold of you for our next trip. Also, I’m sorry about the feedback, or lack there of. You can understand that we were a little skeptical and by the time we realized what an opportunity you gave us, as well as the money saved, it was too late to give you feedback. Thanks for the trip! Scott and Stacey Phoenix, AZ *************************************** Dave, The trip was excellent. We had a good room, third floor, building 4, just one block of rooms from the ocean. Great view. The place -- all adults -- was just what we needed to really relax. Breakfast and lunch were really good, but dinner was iffy. We had a great time. Feel free to use me as a reference. Chris Toppe Washington, DC *************************************** MOON PALACE: Hi Dave, just wanted to let you know that we are down here at the Moon Palace Golf and Spa resort and it is by far the most incredible resort we have ever stayed at! The rooms are absolutely beautiful, the food is delicious with many different choices of places to eat. Everywhere you go just says luxury and comfort. The golf courses are nothing short of spectacular! We have been playing everyday and slowly getting to know the courses. Plenty of wild life around as well which make it very interesting, especially the crocodiles! The people here cannot do enough for you. They stop at nothing to make sure you don't have to worry about anything. They take care of it all! We loved the place so much that we ourselves purchases 10 weeks in the Jacuzzi suites! It's not as good a deal as what you gave us but we're still very excited! We would like to know if you still have packages left at the same price that have the all inclusive golf for $500? We plan to use our weeks to go with our friends that don't golf, but it would still be nice to come back once a year for an all week golf vacation. Again, thank you very much for our greatest vacation ever! Words cannot describe enough how fantastic this place is! All the best, Tony and Elsie A.London, ON Canada *************************************** Dave - I just wanted to take a minute and say thank you so much for your help with my first of many trips to Cancun. We had a group of around 30 people for the wedding and EVERYONE was super happy with the whole trip. There is even talk of making an annual or biennial trip to the Moon Palace. Your emails and advice made my experience one of the best ever. I seemed to be a lot more informed than anyone else in our group. we will most definitely be in touch in the future to spend another week in the sun. Thanks again! Israel Mackey Kingsley Field, OR *************************************** Dave - Hotel [Moon Palace] is simply the best vacation hotel we have stayed in - service was second to none, hotel staff friendly and obliging, food was excellent (even for my 10 year old son who's a real "meat and potatoes" merchant). Had some great trips out to Chichen Itza and Isla Mujeres - where we swam with the dolphins in rough seas, but still managed to go through their routine. Unluckily for us in the rough seas crossing over to the island, the PA system broke down on the boat, so the on board entertainment had to be curtailed !! All-in-all, it's been the best family holiday so far. We got talking to some other people around the pool and they were asking how come we had 2 rooms and privileged member status bands - after explaining that we didn't book our holiday through a UK tour operator, we then got onto the obvious question of how much we paid. They were amazed that we paid less than they had, 2 adjoining rooms, got the trips included, pick-up at the airport, 10% off in the hotel shops etc. I passed your business card onto one of them and the others took your eBay details so hopefully you'll see some more UK bookings in the future. Anyway look forward to going back sometime in the future, maybe outside of hurricane season next time. Regards, Andrew Culshaw Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, UK *************************************** Dave, We had a tremendous time. The place [Moon Palace] was beautiful. Only problem was the trip never seems long enough!!! Next time we will have to do 2 weeks! Thanks again, Mickey B.Douglassville, PA *************************************** Hi Dave, I just wanted to let you know how wonderful everything in Cancun [Moon Palace] was, once again as a repeat customer. I am looking forward to booking through you again next year. Thank you. Lorrie D. West Milford, NJ *************************************** Good morning Dave,We would like to thank you for all your help in making our trip to Moon Palace the most memorable trip our family has ever had. For as wonderful as you made it sound, it was so much better. Words or pictures cannot explain what Moon Palace is all about. The accommodations, service and people were absolutely amazing. It is definitely a WOW factor holiday. Our 9 days went by so fast, that we have decided to return again but hopefully for 2 weeks. The kids had a blast and made so many new friends, there was never any time for boredom (kids are 16/18). We were kept so busy, we did not have the opportunity to do too many tours (which is why we will have to return next year). We did the paradise snorkeling and Isla Mujeres. Although we had a blast (and thanks for telling us to sit on the lower deck for the Isla boat ride- it was so much fun) I was disappointed with the beach at Isla Mujeres. I have to say, the tours are very well organized and they do take good care of you. The men played golf while the women enjoyed the spa at the golf course- how much better does it get!!!! Dave, I have given your name and number to at least 10 people since we returned. People are hesitant to book through e-bay- but once they hear how smooth and how great your services are, they should have no hesitation to book with you. I hope you are around for many years, as I and several of our friends will be taking you up on your services. We thank you and look forward to dealing with you again soon to plan our next winters vacation. The Parisien family Ontario, Canada *************************************** Hello Dave. I just wanted to thank you for giving us the best vacation we've had in a long time. I am shredding my Starwoods Preferred Membership card! The service at Moon Palace was beyond expectations. The accomodations were wonderful. The food was plentiful and if you tasted everything there was always something you could eat until you were stuffed. While we did not particpate in all the planned activities at the resort, we did go on a several all inclusive trips, snorkeling, Chikin itza, etc., that were wondeful. We did play golf and tennis rode the bikes, watercraft, etc. The pool was HUGE! While there I checked out your auctions and noticed our old friends Chris and Ann Cleary had a testimonial posted on Ebay. What a happy coincidence. I hear they are going to Le Blanc in February. They are nice people. Well, we will be contacting you again soon to arrange for our next vacation and we'll probably send our Son somewhere as well! You also have RCI privileges. How does that work for non-members? Thanks again. Guy Mitchell Lewit, Esq. Brookly, NY Gatlaw@aol.com *************************************** Dave, We got back from our week at Moon Palace yesterday and wanted to send along a note of “Thanks” to you for assisting us with a wonderful vacation. We traveled from CT (USA) to Cancun with my wife and two daughters (ages 16 and 12). We all had an outstanding week at Moon. The service is by far the best that I have ever received; and I travel frequently on business. The folks at Moon simply spoiled us for seven days!! We can not say enough wonderful things about this resort and its staff. My kids (who were nearly crying when we left Moon yesterday) are already working on me to book this place for next Christmas!! Thank you for all of your feedback and assistance with securing our week at Moon. Bill W. Simsbury, CT *************************************** Dave, We enjoyed our vacation immensely. The Moon Palace is beautiful and certainly met all our expectations. Your helpfulness and advise prior to departure came in handy and was very much appreciated. I will definitely keep you in mind for future trips to Cancun. Thanks so much and I look forward to planning another trip with you soon!! Lori T. Prospect, CT *************************************** Dear Dave, We have arrived home and I have to say we both had the very best vacation of our life!! What an incredible way to spend a ten year anniversary. We made so many wonderful memories that we will both cherish forever. The spa was so incredible that we visited three times during our stay. Paul played golf twice and saw many iguanas and even an alligator. The course was very difficult but incredibly beautiful and well designed. The food was so delicous, I cannot say enough good things about it. The service was the best I have ever received. They work so hard to make sure that everything you want is at your fingertips. We even got hungry at midnight and they brought up two yummy sandwiches within minutes!! For my anniversary Paul had them bring up four dozen roses and a beautiful cake. It was so beautiful I cried. I couldn't bring the flowers home so I left them with our wonderful lady that cleaned our room daily and made us beautiful designs with towels. Everyday there was a swan, basket, heart on the bed. We visited the disco and acted like teenagers. The music was fun and we met many people, like us, that just wanted to have a good time and dance while listening to some great music. They offer free salsa lessons daily and we took two lessons. That was so much fun!! They offer step classes for the fitness lovers and have a great gym. We brought home some great Tequilia that they brought up to the room anytime we requested it. We also enjoyed the live music at every restaurant we visited. The shows were great too. Dave you did a wonderful job helping us put this trip together! I hope to purchase many more from you. The member’s benefit was awesome and the only way to go !!! Thanks for helping us have the time of our life!!! Ginger C. Oxford, MS. *************************************** Hi Dave, Thank you for making our summer vacation hassle free and smooth sailing. Bobby and I stayed at the Moon Palace Resort and had a wonderful time. The grounds were immaculant and the food was divine. We were so impressed with the charming hospitality...we kept repeating to ourselves how we have never been treated like such royalty. It took me a day or two to adjust to such service! We plan on visiting again next year. I have shared my experience with friends and family-- all whom seem eager to go with us. Watch out, you may be bombarded with reservations for next summer! Again, thank you for going above and beyond with answering my questions and guiding me through the purchasing/reservation process. You were very friendly and professional. I especially appreciate the high quality of reassurance you provided since the vacation was an eBay auction. I was initially hesitant, (I've been burned before by other sellers) but you immediately put my mind at ease. I truly appreciate the manner and quality of how you conduct your business. I left positive feedback for you and am confident it will be one of many! See you next year! Janet Anthony Ponchatoula, Louisiana *************************************** Dave, We’re back. Our trip was wonderful. The Moon Palace was full. They moved the registration to a Ballroom upstairs. They did not use the upstairs registration counter. They told us they had 360 owners registering that day. They provided food and drink which made the process a little more tolerable. Per your suggestion we went to the Isla Mujeres and Wet & Wild. Hot but good tours. One of our rooms had a Plasma TV, the others were like they were a year ago. It looks like they plan to upgrade all rooms with Plasma TV’s. The electrical plugs in the rooms look to have been moved up higher, where you might expect to see a Plasma TV. As anticipated we all ate and drank too much. At this time it’s difficult to think about next year, but all family members said it was the best all inclusive we have been to and they hoped Mom & Dad would take the family back again next year. We really appreciate all you did for us. I told everyone about you and recommended you highly. If you need references I would be happy to give one. Thanks again, Jerry G. Long Beach, CA *************************************** Hi Evelyn and Dave Just wanted to thank you for your wonderful service and willingness to help and advise, which led to our fantastic honeymoon at the Moon Palace, Cancun. It wasn't until we spoke to other guests whilst we were there that we realized what a fantastic bargain we had. Other guests had paid £700 more than us for a two week holiday through travel agents and they didn't get all the great free trips and a free massage, manicure and pedicure per week either! The service at the Moon Palace was second to none - the staff could not do enough for us and were so friendly. Also, there was hardly any evidence of a hurricane ever occurring - everything was ship shape once again. We really did have a honeymoon to remember and it's largely thanks to you for providing us with two weeks from your membership. Thanks once again and I can wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone. Many thanks Helen and Viv Treherne Wales, U.K. *************************************** Hi Dave, Thank you so much for your knowledge and service for our trip to Moon Palace in Cancun. My wife, two children and I had a wonderful time. The resort was clean and the service was absolutely fantastic. Our room was terrific. The double Jacuzzi was nice but I think the hammock on the balcony was the thing we enjoyed the most. The restaurants were good, but the Asian Restaurant was incredible. We went on four excursions. Tulum, my wife and I loved it. My two teenagers thought it was okay. The history was not all that big of a deal to them. I was fascinated. If you go to Tulum I encourage you to wear a swimsuit beneath your clothes to jump in the water because the beach is amazing. We also went to the water park. It is immaculate with some great slides. I would encourage anyone who wants to swim with the Dolphins to do it here. The stay was a bit long for teenagers who live in Arizona and have water parks everywhere but the park was pretty impressive. Isla Mujeres was interesting. The boat ride back was a lot of fun. I encourage anyone on this excursion to do some added activity (extra charge) while they are there...snorkel, take the island tour, drive a wave runner etc. These cost extra but the location they bring you to is no big deal for anyone who has been to Mexico before. They do a great job on the added tours. Be aware that if your child swims with the dolphins on this excursion, only one parent per child is allowed to go. This is not the case on any other dolphin swim. Our favorite excursion was the ‘Sail and Snorkel’. We went to a beautiful location and snorkeled around a cool reef. we saw sting rays and lots of colorful fish. The beach was very nice. We also rode ATVs and speed boats here. WOW! We had a blast. Dave, the only thing I did not like was that Chaza representatives occasionally had bad information, such as saying additional excursions required pre-registration and could be sold out. This is not remotely accurate. All of our excursions signed people up for added activities on the trip and no one was excluded. My wife and I had gone to Cancun before. This resort was much better than our last and we had a great time at the previous resort. Moon Palace is huge. It has many options for dining, great service, nice shows and a cool putt-putt course. The pool is great and the sandy beach is very nice. The ocean is really not good for swimming right now because there is too much sea weed; However, the pools make you forget about that. Thanks for Everything, Allen, Ellen, Nick and HopePeoria, AZ *************************************** Dave; Our trip was fantastic and we really had a great time. We checked in and hooked up with our rep and he took care of all of our questions and everything we needed. The beach at Moon Palace got bigger and some rooms and areas were still damaged but it did not interfere with the service. We enjoyed several shows, the disco was great and the food was great as always. I swam with the dolphins and had the experience of a lifetime. The service you provided was top notch and your VIP membership made the trip the best vacation ever. For 2007 we are going to Daytona Beach for Daytona Speed Week for 10 days and will be going back to Cancun in 2008. We will have several couples going and they all say they want to buy their package from you. We look forward to contacting you for our next Cancun trip. Thanks for everything, you are better than a travel agent! Best regards, Sharon and Don Glover Highland, CA *************************************** Dave... just returned from Moon Palace and had a wonderful spring break with our family. We are already planning for next years trip and want to know if you can assist us and others. We took the tour presentation and hope you get credit for that. We are very interested in the Presidential Suite next year. We will likely have several other families interested in going as well and some may want Presidential while others will simply want the Jacuzzi Suite only. Let me know the best way to accomplish this. Most of all I want to thank you for your professionalism, honesty and diligence. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Joel KirshIndianapolis, IN *************************************** March 2006 Hi Dave… What can we even say! The trip was INCREDIBLE! It was truly the nicest place we have ever been to. We were treated like royalty from the time they picked us up at the airport until we left. Moon Palace was beautiful… we were a little afraid that there would be hurricane damage.. but there wasn't any at all. Everything was beautiful! It was so relaxing and the perfect place to go on our honeymoon!! Thank you so much for planning EVERYTHING for us and being our travel agent! We highly recommend this deal to all of our friends.. I hope we bring you some business! Thanks so much for all you did.. and for the great deal we got since we booked through you! Eric and Rachel Arlington TN. *************************************** Hi Dave, We had a wonderful time on our family vacation.The resort was great !!! The Mexicans were awesome.We did the excursions that you recommended plus we did the Sail & Snorkel tour, that was pretty cool. I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you for being our personal travel agent !! Any idea on how much it would cost Louise and I to go to the Aventura Palace Next January or February Big 20th anniversary next year (thinking ahead).We may take a few friends along would it be the same price for everyone including your fees. Please let me know. Thanks Again Gaétan & Louise P. Cornwall, ON Canada *************************************** Hi Dave, Our trip was great! The hotel, food, and service were very good. Being that all of us are big tequila drinkers, we were glad they had a wide variety of good brands of tequilas that weren't watered down. In fact, this is the first all inclusive resort that I have been to where there seemed to be no watering down of the drinks. We really appreciated your excellent service and the opportunity you gave us to go to Moon Palace. I sincerely hope we can do it again next year. I am particularly interested in going to the new Palace property in Puerto Vallarta. If you have any connections there, we would love to go through you. We will most likely book in April next year because February is the coldest month down there. Once again, thank you very much!!!! Sincerely, Vikki J. Beaumont, TX *************************************** Hi Dave, I would like to thank you for all your help on booking our honeymoon stay at the Moon Palace. I appreciate your prompt email responses about having to change our dates and revising the reservation. We had no problem with the included airport shuttle and checking-in. We felt extra special by wearing the “Member’s” bracelets. All our paperwork was ready as soon as we walked into the enormous hotel lobby. We even got our requested top floor room and an ocean view. The service at the resort could not have been any better. Thanks again, Hanh N. San Diego, CA. *************************************** Hi Dave Let me start off by saying thank you. The service you provided was perfect and we had a great vacation. From the start I was more than a little concerned about buying this type of vacation from an individual online that I did not know. We were burned not long ago by a company going by the name of TRAVELCOM. They offered great packages at all the five star all inclusive resorts but when it came time to book they only had two star and lower available. So as we are standing in line to check in at the Moon Palace I was worried that the confirmation we had in our hand would be a hoax. As this is running through my head a man approaches and asks for our reservation. After asking if this is truly our reservation he pulls us out of line and leads us in another direction. (I'm in full panic mode now) Just before my stomach rolls over, the man hands us the reservation and informs us that the VIP and Members only check-in is up the escalator. Let the all inclusive begin..... Dos XXX's por favor! (Inform future travelers to go up the escalator.) The Moon Palace is everything advertised and then some. Originally we did not want to vacation at such a large resort fearing that the amount of people would impact the service provided and the quality of the product. To our surprise this was not an issue. The layout of the Moon Palace is such that you never feel like you are in a packed resort. As a matter of fact, we never waited in line for a restaurant or bar. They have an well trained and dedicated staff that is willing to go above and beyond to satisfy your every need. The trips included are excellent. We set up all of our trips the day after checking in. In all, we went to three of the Mayan ruins offered: Tulum, Ek Balam, and of course Chichen Itza light and sound. We did Tulum twice because of the beautiful beach. We also went to Isla Mujeres and Wet and Wild. All the trips use top of the line busses or boats for transportation and provide tour guides. We ran out of time to do all of the trips and we stayed 14 days. In all, we had a great time and are planning to use your service again. We would like to book a vacation to Xpu-Ha as soon as it opens back up. Once again: thank you! Sincerely, Rick, Bea, and Calvin L. Mesa, AZ *************************************** Dear Dave, We have just returned from our vacation at the Moon Palace resort in Cancun. Dave, my husband and I would like to thank you for the excellent service you provided before we took our trip. As you know, we had booked at the Aventura Spa Palace and we were very excited about our upcoming trip. Unfortunately hurricane Emily did some damage to the resort and we were forced to change our plans and re-book at the Moon Palace. Dave, you e-mailed me with the news about the Aventura Spa closure before I had even heard about Emily on the news. You also gave us advise on which resort to choose and re-booked for us immediately. Your service is absolutely marvelous. I did wonder if the Moon Palace was going to meet our expectations, you know how it is when you have your heart set on something. I certainly need not have worried. My husband and I are from England and we have traveled extensively in Europe and to many places around the world. I have to tell you that this vacation was a dream come true. The Moon Palace was on par with some of the finest resorts I have ever seen, and the service was absolutely wonderful. The staff at the Moon Palace were professional, friendly and gave service way beyond our expectations. I had read a few negative comments on the web about the beach not being that wonderful. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE? We live in southern California and the beach at the Moon Palace made our beaches look bad. The superior room at the Moon Palace was great, every day we took a picture of the towel art and the turn down service was a special added touch, we loved the in room spa and the enormous marble shower. The restaurants were fabulous, the food was great and there were more waiters than guests. Talk about being spoiled, and thanks Dave, for the information about the Myan coffee, we started a trend at the restaurants when we ordered. This whole experience was wonderful from beginning to end. All I can say to anyone contemplating booking a vacation is, if you are thinking about going to the Moon Palace and are not quite sure, BOOK IT, AND BOOK IT THROUGH DAVE. If you are still not sure, e-mail me at schoencarol@msn.com, I can attest that all I am saying is true. Everybody we met at the Moon Palace was raving about the resort and the service we all received. I met one couple who were on their honeymoon and had spent one week in the Bahamas and were spending the second week at the Moon Palace. They said they wished they had spent all of their honeymoon at the Moon Palace. We also had the added benefit of being your guests and we were offered many free tours. We spoke to a lot of people who were taking these tours and because they were not guests of members they were paying about $50 per person for these excursions. Admittedly we never did take advantage of the free tours, we were much too happy just taking it easy by the fabulous pool at the Moon Palace. Dave, I cannot say enough about how fabulous this vacation was, next year we want to return and plan on booking the Aventura Palace. We sincerely hope that we can use your services again. Thank you so very much for every thing you have done to make this vacation the best we have ever had. Please feel free to use any of this e-mail in a testimonial, you can give out my e-mail address and I will be happy to recommend your services and the Palace Resorts. Again, our sincere thanks. Carol and Graham Watson. La Quinta, CA *************************************** Hi David: The kids got back from Cancun and they had a wonderful time. As a matter of fact, they didn’t even want to come back home. Michael said he wished that he had brought his resume with him. They really enjoyed their stay a Moon Palace. They said that the staff catered to them hand and foot. The first night there, Michael went to light his cigarette after having an excellent meal and one of the waiters came running over with a lighter in hand to light it for him. The waiter wouldn’t even let Michael carry the ashtray to his table. They said that both the accommodations and food were fantastic. The best part for them was going to one of the many restaurants at the resort, ordering anything from the menu, including appetizers, alcoholic beverages and desserts and then getting up and leaving without having to pay. They said that they could really get use to this kind of treatment. We appreciate all that you did to help make this such a memorable vacation for my daughter’s 18th birthday. David, you really care about your customers and it shows in the excellent service you provide. We will definitely use your services again. Thanks, Debbie DeLaurierWindsor, ON Canada *************************************** David, we just got back from our stay at the Moon and everything was perfect. The Presidential Suite was fantastic and the staff couldn't do enough for us. I can't wait to go back. I really appreciate the communication and the help you provided for our stay at the Moon. If you have other weeks available in the future, I would be very interested in booking them through you. Thanks again.

This was our third time at the Moon Palace, and the resort is still the most outstanding in Cancun. The staff at this resort is so friendly, and the meals and drinks are the best!! I'm very glad that I checked EBAY this time for people selling their weeks at the Moon Palace. I saved much more booking through you Dave. I look forward to doing business with you again. Sincerely, Patrick Geddes Marlton, NJ *************************************** Hey Dave; Moon Palace was very nice. It was quite large, though you didn’t really have a hard time getting around. I thought walking within our side of the resort was not bad at all. The food and choices was good. The buffets were plentiful and the quality was quite acceptable. The oriental rest. was v. good overall. If you are into the drinking part, there were a lot of bars. Whether by the pool, or just anywhere you went. The pool was beautiful and huge. Oh...but before I forget. The service everywhere was great. You could not ask for more. People were genuine and enjoyed helping. We brought a couple of hundred in 1's and 5's and pretty much went through it all. I am sure many people didn’t tip, but really what’s another $100 over a week to most of us? But a buck here and there means a lot to the people serving you... Jeff Blasko Rockville Center, NY *************************************** Hola Dave! Wah-wah! What can I say? Getting home was a rude shock...it's like someone has the permanent air conditioning on, I keep expecting to go outside and it's going to be magically warm!! Having to cook brunch this morning 'plumb tuckered' me out (that's a Margie thang).... I half expected my hammock to be waiting on the deck after all that labor....My body keeps telling me it's time to go down to the 'alberca' and swim up to the bar for a cocktail. What a luxurious life!! We had such a wonderful time, all these fabulous memories will have to last until the next time. I have some good pictures and will attempt to send some when I down-load them off Pete's computer onto mine. I am a charter member of the technologically inept so don't hold your breath. It may take a while. I spoke to my Mum and Dad this morning. I was so enthusiastic about our trip that I think we may get some family together and take them down there for the parents 50th wedding anniversary this year. They will love it. Many Thanks for introducing us so pleasantly to the joys of Mexico. I think it was the best vacation I ever had. Until next time, Kate and Pete Vancouver, BC Canada *************************************** Dave - Good afternoon, Our trip went by MUCH TOO FAST!!! What a great week we had, The weather could not have been better. Everyone's accommodations were close together and very near the beach and pool with great views. You may recall that my brother-in-law and cousin shared a presidential suite which we used a number of times for cocktails prior to going to dinner. Of course the suite is quite impressive, but at a place as nice as the Moon Palace my wife and I found that we wanted to soak up as much sun and pool time as possible. Perhaps the next time we go I'll move faster if you make us the same offer! Our group had a super time. The people there were super friendly and made all of us feel like royalty. Perhaps our best dinner was a result of going on the kitchen tour. After the tour we were given a private dinner and served chateaubriand with baked Alaska for dessert. So Dave, if we can swing something like this again, perhaps next year, can I contact you once again? Thanks again for everything, Mel Donaldson Seattle, WA *************************************** SquareTrade © AP6.0 squaretradetravelsealOn Jun-02-08 at 17:47:30 PDT, seller added the following information:On Jul-02-08 at 08:09:48 PDT, seller added the following information:On Jul-06-08 at 21:10:37 PDT, seller added the following information: Place a Bid!
