Greetings!
Summer has arrived! This is one of my
favorite times of the year, where I get to enjoy the long days with friends and
family and balmy summer evenings.
We have many destinations throughout our amazing portfolio where clients can fulfill their own summer
dreams...whether it be enjoying a one-of-a-kind accommodation or white sand beaches in
Fiji, Hawaii or Tahiti, enjoying the stars in the Sonoran desert, the Big Sur
coastline, the great outdoors and riding at one of our ranch properties, the
charm and culture of Mexico, or jumping back in time in Rome and Florence. So,
take your pick and help your clients find great value, incredible experiences, and make memories that they will cherish for a lifetime.
Thanks for your continued support, and may
you enjoy a summer and extraordinary memories of your own. Don't' forget to let us know
whenever/however we can help you make you look like a "star" in your clients'
eyes.
Cheers, Evelyn
