Even as new members of Vacation Inspirations in Charleston, the Montagnes received a rebate check following their vacation, in addition to initial lower rates.

“We did save money,” Carolyn continued. “Of course, we still have some money to recoup from our startup fee, but we don’t doubt that we will get it. If you travel a lot, even close-to-home vacations, it pays off.”

With family throughout the Southeast and in Michigan, there are plenty of opportunities as members of Vacation Inspirations for the Montagnes to continue booking hotels, rental vehicles, airlines and excursions, all at great rates and all including rebate checks when the vacation is over. “We have already booked our next vacation through Vacation Inspirations. It is one we’ve wanted to do for years, a Roman cruise across the Mediterranean, and Vacation Inspirations has already set us up at a nice location and got us a good price,” Carolyn said.

People who are accustomed to island living know how to enjoy the laid-back lifestyle, so it’s not surprising that the Montagne family of Pawleys Island, South Carolina, enjoyed their most recent 14-day vacation to the island of St. Martin.

Robert and Carolyn traveled with their family to Philipsburg on the Dutch side of the island.

“We chose St. Martin because we had stopped there previously on a cruise and knew we wanted to go back. The food was good and it has beautiful scenery,” said Carolyn Montagne. “It is a very relaxing place to go, with beautiful water. I recommend anyone to take a trip out there.”

As new members of Vacation Inspirations, Charleston, SC, their trip to St. Martin was their first booking.

“Everything, all of the scheduling, was done promptly, within 48 hours of me contacting them,” said Carolyn. “The whole experience was great and St. Martin was very pretty.”

“Vacation Inspirations [Charleston] placed us at a great resort that had a good price and location. Since we travel often to see family and usually stay in nearby hotels, we appreciate the prompt rebate checks,” she added.

The Woodrows and others stayed at sea for almost nine hours before it was deemed safe enough to continue island hopping. Despite being part of one the worst natural disasters of the past century, the family still describes their experience as “most enjoyable.”

“It’s hard to pick a favorite island in Hawaii because each has its own distinct beauty,” said Charles. “Hawaii has volcanoes like Kilauea and Oahu was also very pretty. It’s very difficult to pick one over the other, and I don’t think I can.”

Kilauea is an active volcano that frequently causes damage, while Oahu is home to the famous naval base at Pearl Harbor.

With the majority of their vacation spent in the capital city of Honolulu and being caught slightly off-guard by pricing on the islands, the Woodrows managed to save money by booking travel through Vacation Inspirations. They used the Vacation Inspirations website and travel agency, rating the company’s service in selecting and booking hotels and cruises, as well as its overall customer service, as excellent.

Best of all, because the Woodrows are members of Vacation Inspirations, they received a rebate check after their vacation was over. While they are staying closer to home for their next vacation, Vacation Inspirations will be on hand to assist in planning and booking to save even more money.
