PLATINUM HONORS FOR Island Getaways
~Sandals Resorts Recognizes Nancy Finn, Says She Knows
Sandals and Beaches Best~
~Sandals Resorts Recognizes Nancy Finn, Says She Knows
Sandals and Beaches Best~
Nancy Finn of Island Getaways has earned lifetime Platinum level status, the highest level of recognition in Sandals Resorts' Certified Sandals Specialist (CSS) program. Nancy Finn is one of only 100 travel agents in the United States to have earned this distinctive status.
Travel agents with a CSS designation are required to complete a rigorous education and training program on a yearly basis, that ensures customers they are the experts on all facets of Sandals and Beaches Resorts, the Caribbean's leading chain of luxury all-inclusive resorts. Platinum level CSS agents must report a minimum of 250 traveled bookings, since their initial enrollment in the program - in some cases dating as far back as 1996, the program's initial year of inception.
"I am proud of this accomplishment," said Nancy Finn "Vacations are memories in the making and we take our responsibility to clients very seriously. Customers want to be confident that the information they receive is based on expert knowledge and having the CSS Platinum designation does just that."
According to Mandy Chomat, senior vice president of Sandals and Beaches Resorts, training and highlighting the best representatives of the brands is a key strategy for the Caribbean-based resort chain. "At Sandals, our goal is to exceed client expectations every time," said Chomat. "And Nancy Finn is an essential part of this effort. Nancy knows the intimate details of each resort and is able to match customers to the perfect Sandals or Beaches for them. We congratulate Nancy Finn on the hard work that brought Nancy to this level and wish Nancy and Island Getaways the very best

As a result of their tremendous knowledge and support of Couples Resorts, an elite group of travel agencies have achieved "Platinum" status, our highest level of travel agency recognition. The logo above designates these travel agencies as our most experienced and productive partners.
Many agents are not familiar with the resorts, nor do they have first-hand experience on-site, requiring a brochure for reference. Our Caribbean Specialists research-not only what's on paper-but by visiting the sites and seeing all the resorts truly have to offer.
What further sets us apart from all other agencies is our passion for the business and the personal assistance we deliver every step of the way to arrange a one-of-a-kind getaway tailored-made to your specifications-whatever the occasion. Don't just take our word for it. See what our clients are actually saying about their experience with Island Getaways.
"More than a travel agency" - "A Godsend" - "As stress-free as a wedding could be" - "With [Island Getaways] as my liaison, all my questions were answered quickly and things went much more smoothly" - "I was getting price quotes that were almost double what [Island Getaways] offered me"
From Island Getaways Nancy Finn, Caribbean Specialist and Agency Partner:
My philosophy is that travel planning is not between places, but rather, between people. The Internet is a powerful resource to get you started and we're glad you found us. It is no substitute, however, for the value, expertise, convenience and personal service that the Caribbean Specialists at Island Getaways offer. Making a personal connection enables us to match your interests, personality and expectations to the right venue. After all, travel is an investment in both time and money. Our first objective is to listen, and listen well, to all of your needs, preferences and concerns so that accommodations are arranged just as you wish.
We work diligently on your behalf because we simply love what we do and have developed the expertise to do it better than anyone. Travel is our passion, as are all things Caribbean! I stand behind all my agency has to offer. I invite you to call me personally for a Caribbean consultation. I am confident that Island Getaways will exceed your expectations. We welcome your feedback. Let us know how our site could be more effective for you. Contact us now!
