Dana helped us find the best deal for our family's Spring Break trip to Mexico. We decided to stay at Dreams Sapphire in Puerto Morales. Dana covered an upgraded Preferred Club room & experience since the regular hotel room w/a swim out we wanted was only available for part of the dates we wanted to stay. We loved the resort and amenities. The food was better than other all inclusives we've stayed at. We also loved the convenient location of the Preferred Club part of the resort, as we were in close proximity to the pool, restaurants, main lobby - everything!! We loved the rooftop preferred pool - only got to use twice since our tween felt they were too old for the Explorers Club. The only complaints about the resort were: -The main pool activities were the exact same every day and they blared the same songs. It got old. - We didn't sleep the entire trip. The the continued loud slamming of doors from other guests and stampeding kids through the hotel hallways kept us awake. Our room was across from housekeeping which also was very loud. - There is no "teen club" as advertised. Just a video game room and pool table. Dana also helped us book a day trip to Isla Mujeres, which was our favorite day of the trip. We will be staying here in the future. She checked in on us during our stay to see how things were going, which we appreciated. We will be working with Dana on booking our future travel adventures!

Loved the resort/location! Fantastic.

Dana was super responsive to all of our questions and concerns before the trip. I had to change my flight last minute due to weather and she helped me with the process and got me a credit for future use. I'm so glad I went through a travel agent for this trip as it relieved so much of the stress I would have had without one!

We didn’t have to take care of a thing and Dana kept us updated every step of the trip making it such a fun time!

Incredible trip! Thanks to Dana for taking care of all the details including transport to and from airport. The accommodations were lovely and clean!

Excellent service, attentive staff, for age facility in excellent shape, beach maintained throughout the day.

We loved the recommendation of the adult only cruise. Dana made everything so easy with hotels, airline tickets and cruise reservations. We can’t wait for our next trip!!

As always, Dana is an expert in finding the perfect spot for our family vacations. She sets up everything seamlessly and takes the worry out of us needing to think about the details. She is truly amazing!

I love working with Dana to make our travel dreams come true! We wanted to visit the Normandy region and experience the small villages and beautiful countryside. Dana helped us pull together a unique itinerary - including a few days in Paris. We can’t wait for our next adventure!

We were recommended to use Dana from a friend and we could not have more pleased with her help. This was our first time to Europe for a wedding and Dana helped us plan a perfect trip for a time and money. She was knowledgeable about the cities and best transportation methods to get around. Not to mention she helped my parents plant their dream to Italy as well! 10/10 would recommend!

Dana has always been fantastic to work with. She provides valuable input and recommendations.

Dana planned our honeymoon to Aruba for us, and we had a great experience! She was so helpful during the process and gave us great recommendations.

Dana was amazing and helped us pick out so great spots on our honeymoon! She was especially helpful with the process and keeping in contact with us throughout the trip :)

Dana did an amazing job arranging our trip. Every detail was covered. The excursions she recommended were top notch. I can’t wait for our next Dot Travel vacation??

Dana planned an unforgettable bachelor trip to Mexico for our group and made the entire process completely stress-free. She handled everything—from flights and hotel bookings to transportation—so we didn’t have to lift a finger. Dana kept us informed every step of the way, making sure we knew what to bring and what to expect. Her communication, organization, and attention to detail were top-notch. I highly recommend Dana, and my friends and I will definitely be using her again for future trips!

We had a great time! Dana did a great job of planning in advance and was super flexible to make adjustments as needed and was very responsive! Everything she planned exceeded our expectations!

Overall great trip to Secrets Cap Cana in Dominican. The people were extremely friendly and helpful. Lots of activities to join and much relaxation time ! Food was excellent.

The trip far exceeded our expectations in every way! From the planning of it, Dana, covered every base and her suggestions were right on! Jade Mountain did not disappoint! The accommodations are beautiful and the people who work there are so kind and delightful! The beach and snorkeling were beautiful and the food was AMAZING! A memorable experience! Thank you Dana!

From start to finish, working with Dana was an absolutely incredible experience. We traveled to Paris, Florence, Rome, and Venice, and every detail of our trip was perfectly thought out thanks to her dedication and expertise. She made our anniversary trip truly relaxing in terms of planning! From the early planning stages, Dana took so much time getting to know what we were looking for. She listened and helped craft a daily itinerary that felt tailor-made for us. Every activity and moment felt aligned with our interests and travel style. We felt heard and understood throughout the entire process and even when we changed our minds, she made updates, and gave new suggestions with patience. Her hotel recommendations were phenomenal, not just in quality, but also in location, which made exploring each city so much easier and more enjoyable. She even went the extra mile with thoughtful touches like room upgrades and special treats upon arrival, which made the trip feel that much more spe

We just returned from a Mediterranean cruise and three days on Sifnos. Dana’s connections with professional travel advisors in the region allowed us to create a perfect ‘wrapper’ for the cruise, including flights, hotels, ferries, and transfers. Every little detail was perfectly planned, and even when the unplanned happened (flight delay, ugh), Dana was there to get us rebooked on our connecting flight, and informed our transfer and the hotel. I love creating adventures with Dana!

Excellent master suite with friends and the balcony we had was the most spectacular view.

We had a great Girls trip thanks to Dana! She is so great to work with, and always ensures our trips meet desired expectations. We wanted an all-inclusive beach location where we could all be together, in a shared room, with enough beds for 5 people. She found us a great option (Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach). The resort was beautiful, the Infinite Ocean Front Two Bedroom Master Suite was absolutely amazing (HUGE terrace overlooking the pool and ocean). We had no issues with desired dinner reservations (and food and drink were good). Three large pools and we had VIP (Infinity club) beach service all week. The GEM SPA was by far the top spa we have ever visited (hydrotherapy and massages were amazing)! We can't wait to book our next adventure for memories of a lifetime! <3

dana is the best! she responds quickly & the emails she sends out prior to leaving with tips & tricks are super helpful

Booking this trip through Dana made everything so much easier and removed a lot of the stress that comes with international trips. There were constant reminders and I liked how it came in waves as the dates came closer.

I’m sure we weren’t the easiest group to work with since we had so many limitations when booking but Dana was incredibly helpful and made sure we had everything we wanted

Excellent experience, everyone had a great time. We would travel there again.

Dana made our trip incredibly seamless! Her excellent communication skills kept us informed and updated throughout the entire planning process. From the moment we signed up, she promptly provided all the necessary details and deadlines, making everything stress-free. Thank you, Dana, for making this a truly unforgettable trip!

I booked a trip to Maui through Dana. The level of detail she provided far exceeded what I expected. Any questions I had (which were few because the information was so thorough) were answered quickly by email and/or text.

Dana is the best travel partner. We book all of our trips with her. She is always on top of everything. I love the packing lists she sends out. It has saved me several times. Thanks so much Dana!!

Dana was so great to work with and help take our unique request of walking the Portuguese Camino and bundle it with our air travel, insurance and an amazing hotel in Madrid. She even helped us with a few excursions in both Porto and Madrid to make the most of our stay. Every little detail was considered! Highly recommend Dana and Dot Travel!

Dana knows her stuff! She is friendly and helpful with suggestions and easy to work with! We were able to get her assistance while out of the country for confirmations.

She listens to what we wanted to do and made arrangements for the fantastic hotels and for the drivers!
We had a fabulous and smooth trip because of her fantastic connections and planning skills! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Dana! We had a trip of a lifetime!

Dana was amazing in helping us plan and book this vacation, from sending us some options that met our preferences and budget, to finding a deal with some extra bonuses at the resort. She replied to emails right away and was available when we had questions. She booked a hotel transport with free upgrade to private transfer, the resort was perfect and we wil definitely have Dana help book us another vacation in the future!

Communication with Dana was excellent. Response time with emails and phone calls was outstanding.

Dana makes everything so easy and is awesome to work with! She gives you a real sense of security when you travel, and makes everything very easy! I wouldn’t travel any other way especially internationally! Everything from the pre planning to coming home is meticulously laid out and allows you to relax on your vacation!

Awesome trip! Dana did a fabulous job planning our trip to Ireland. Best hotels, excursions, ect. Added bonus was that she was traveling with us! I’m already planning my next European adventure with her. I will always use her as my travel agent. Thanks again, Dana!

Dana went over and above helping and communicating with us all. Kind heart and very organized!

Best agent EVER . Dana was organized and on point! Everything and I mean EVERYTHING was taken care of !

Dana was the best travel agent that we could've worked with! She was so attentive and responsive, made the best recommendations and was extremely organized. If you're looking to go on a trip and not worry about the specifics and details, I would highly recommend working with Dana!

So kind, hard working, and knowledgeable

Dana created an amazing Croatia itinerary for us, and was very responsive throughout the planning process. Dana was able to get us great deals on hotels/flights and excursions, looking forward to utilizing her services again soon!

Dana was AMAZING! I spoke with several travel agents when beginning to plan for our family trip and none seemed quite right. But from my first conversation with Dana, I knew she was the right partner to help make this a trip of a lifetime for our family!

Dana was extremely knowledgeable, conscientious, creative, and patient with our many changes. It's not easy coordinating travel for 8 adults living in different parts of the country and departing at different times, but Dana handled it with ease and aplomb.

When one of our party got stuck in Paris, Dana worked tirelessly - during the middle of her night - to find accommodations and alternate travel.

The accommodations, excursions, and English speaking private drivers Dana arranged at each location made the whole trip fun, relaxing and worry-free.

I highly recommend Dana for any of your travel needs and am looking forward to working with her on our next trip!

Dana was amazing!! She coordinated the entire trip, including private transfers with delightful drivers, with ease for our family of 8 adults. She is very knowledgeable, responsive and conscientious. She made sure all of our hotels and excursions were top notch. When one of our party got stuck in Paris overnight, Dana went the extra mile to help her find accommodations during the middle of Dana's night!! Highly recommend. In fact, will be using her for our next trip...to Greece!

We appreciate your help in planning our trip. It was awesome! Having not traveled out of the country before (besides Mexico) - your advice and transportation organization was so helpful. We didn't have any "panic" moments which I am sure we would have had - had we not used you to help. The travel app is amazing and I never want to travel again without it. So helpful to have all of the information in the same spot!

I loved that our trip had it all - exploring on our own, tours and relaxing. Every day was a new adventure and completely different than the day before! We loved our private boat tour. Definitely worth the upgrade to have it be private. The pizza class was also a favorite - beautiful setting and a fun night activity. I will be in touch when we are ready for another trip.

TEST-DO NOT APPROVE

Excellent customer service!

My husband and I had not traveled overseas for several years so we had some apprehensions going into the trip, especially post-COVID. Dana took care of all of the details and gave us a comprehensive itinerary and packing list and we honestly had the seamless, carefree vacation we were hoping for! The lodgings and excursions she suggested were wonderful and exceeded our expectations.

Extremely detailed orientate, timely, and cost conscious.

We have been working with Dana now for six years (6 trips to various places (with kids) in MX and the D.R.). She is great to work with, and works hard to find us what we are looking for within our desired location/budget. She is super easy going, and patient. We never feel pressured at any point of the process, and she sees our booking through until the end. She travels a lot to stay current and has a lot of helpful recommendations based on our desires. She is also great to work with if you are booking a large group. We have recommended Dana to many friends/family. What are you waiting for…the beach is calling!
