Dear Dave,
Hello and
hope you had a great Canada Day!!!
This is the time of the year many of us are taking some
time off and enjoying some vacation time. So what do you
like to do on your vacation? Do you like to read a good
book? Go on an adventure (like ziplining)? Sit out in the
sun on a beach? Visiting with family? Enjoy a new
restaurant for dinner? Do tell.
I'm a pool person myself. I like to find a good shady
spot and catch up on all of the magazines I'm normally too
busy to read. My favourite magzine is Esquire but I also
enjoy the trashy celebrity gossip rags like US Weekly, In
Touch and OK! What can I say? It's always good to know who
wore it best!! :)
Another favourite vacations pass-time is shopping. Are
you with me??? WooHoo!! Nothing like finding a good
bargain!!
BTW, you know who else likes to shop while on vacation?
Dixie!! I kid you not. On our recent vacation to Palm
Springs we took Dixie into PetSmart and as you can see
from the
VIDEO she had a great time on her shopping spree.
Hey, this month I'm going to be all over Western Canada at
various functions (Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Red
Deer, Calgary, and Vancouver) so hopefully I'll see you?
Have a great month!!!
Sincerely,
Freddie Marsh, CTC

 ANOTHER
HAPPY MEMBER
Kathy Hall, CTC
Kathy
Hall CTC from Marlin Travel at West Edmonton Mall is
smiling because she earned a bonus commission of
$490.00 from a June wedding group at the Gran
Porto Real. As Kathy says, "Happy Clients, Happy
Agent!! Thanks, Real Resorts!!" Congratulations
Kathy. Thanks for booking Real Resorts and please enjoy
your well deserved bonus!!
The
RRMembers Commission Booster Program is one of the
best incentive programs in the industry. If you're not a
member yet you're really missing out. The program is
designed to be user-friendly with no forms to fill out
and everything is done quickly online.
One of
the features I like most about the RRMembers program is
that your cheque is generated and sent out to you within
30 days of your client's checkout and you don't have to
wait until you accumulate a certain amount of bookings.
Even just after ONE booking a cheque is sent to you.
A
question I hear a lot from travel agents is, "Do tour
operator bookings qualify?" Of course. Real Resorts
knows that most of your bookings are coming through tour
operators such as Westjet Vacations, Air Canada
Vacations and Thomas Cook. Real Resorts appreciates your
business and wants to reward you for it.
And the
program is very generous. For example, a simple 7 night
booking to THE ROYAL Playa del Carmen will earn you a
minimum of $50US up to a maximum of $160US depending on
suite category and number of guests.

HONUA KAI
Size Isn't Everything, but...
 Let's
face it, that the last thing people want to do on
holiday, is spend a lot of time in the hotel/condo.
Well, that is, unless the condo is huge and incredibly
luxurious.
Honua Kai Resort & Spa was built from the ground up
to go beyond what your clients would expect.
To begin
with, all of Honua Kai's accommodations are suites -
from a roomy Studio Suite with approximately 595 sq. ft.
to a palatial 2,650 sq. ft. Specialty Suite. Each suite
features a private bathroom for each bedroom and so many
more unexpected luxuries. The gourmet kitchens are all
equipped with high-end Bosch appliances. Every fixture,
every furnishing, every feature of the open floor plan
has been designed to take Maui luxury accommodations to
an entirely new level.
Here is a
summary of the sizes of the Honua Kai suites:
Once your
clients have experienced Honua Kai, they may never again
settle for less.
By the
way, if you have clients that have stayed at Honua Kai
in the past, make sure you let them know about the
contest currently running on facebook where they can WIN
5 NIGHTS!!! For more information click on the image
