Why Should You Book With Us?

Trust, Praise, and Value - three simple, fundamental concepts that come into play whenever a person is faced with the decision of making a major purchase.

Can you trust the company you are buying from?

Have previous customers sung praise about this company?

Are you getting the best value for your money?

At Vacation au Naturel, we feel that if a customer is to choose to do business with our company over all other companies in the competitive Internet travel environment, we must meet these three requirements to every customer's satisfaction. When you book your vacation with our company, you can book with confidence.

Trust
Vacation au Naturel is a subsidiary of Group & Incentive Resort Marketing, Inc. which has been in business since September of 1991. Vacation au Naturel has been owned and successfully operated by the same management team since its inception.

Travel Law
"Travel Law describes the nexus of federal, state, common law and international laws that regulate the day-to-day workings of the travel industry.The need for a body of law specific to the travel industry became evident with the deregulation of the travel industry that occurred in the 1970s. When the federally-mandated deregulation process was finished, the travel industry found itself in need of a central source of legal guidance where it could turn for its travel-specific issues, and the field of Travel Law was born. Travel Law incorporates elements of contract law, employment issues, tourism and hospitality procedures, anti-trust rules, regulatory and agency compliance, and knowledge of certain international treaties, into a comprehensive guide for the travel industry."

We are based in Florida, one of the few states that require any company that sells travel to be registered and post a bond of up to $50,000 as insurance to protect consumers if the company goes out of business.

We are registered with the Florida Sellers of Travel Laws under the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Registration Number #ST-19641, and you can check up on our company by calling the Florida Division of Consumer Services at (850) 488-2221 or visiting their website at http://www.800helpfla.com/sot.html.

Testimonials

"We got home late last night- We LOVED the trip the location and the resort- we will be going back that is for sure ! Weather was perfect - everything went so smoothly - We cannot thank you enough- know we need to set a date for our next trip- let me know if you get any deals for the fall and also Jamaica in the winter of 2005.
We will be in touch."

"Everything was perfect! We were totally blown away by the resort. I did not expect the level of service we recieved--it was not much fun coming back to South FLorida after being treated like royalty. I had a facial and massage which were some of the best I have every had. The food was wonderful and I ate enough salsa and guacamole until at least the next trip.

The resort is absolutely beautiful and is definitly a place to which we will return. And you were right, it was much better than I expected.

Thank you for your help in planning a fantastic vacation!"

"Just wanted to let you know the trip was great! All 'requests' (near elevator, non-smoking, two beds) were met and we found the beach wonderful! Everyone was very helpful and accomodating - Great trip - we'll return!"

We would love to include your testimonial in this list of happy customers.

Value
The old adage "you get what you pay for" does not apply to Vacation au Naturel. "Getting what you pay for" implies that the cost of the item you are purchasing is equal to the value you will derive from it. This is not the case with Vacation au Naturel. When you book with us, the value you derive from your purchase far exceeds the amount you pay.

Our business model is unique in the sense that we are able to dedicate more time to each customer than a normal Internet-based company would be able to do. We answer every e-mail. We respond to every quote request. And we're always happy to assist you immediately when you decide to call.

We are not Travel Agents - we are Travel Consultants. A Travel Agent answers the phone, takes your order, and processes the transaction - not us. Our Travel Consultants know that travelers normally do not know everything about the destination they wish to visit. That is why we are happy to answer the phone to speak with you about what you're looking for in your vacation and help you choose the best resort and destination.

At Vacation au Naturel, we're not trying to sell you a vacation - we're trying to help you choose the best one.
