Family Spring Break Beach Vacations

I've been using Amber for years to help me coordinate our adventures. She is the utmost professional and works to make sure every detail is covered and that her clients are completely satisfied. She always follows up and requests honest feedback on the trips. I highly recommend her to help you with your travels!

This is the second Disney vacation that Amber assisted us with. She did such a great job 3 years ago assisting us with a family vacation to Disney World that we knew she would do another fantastic job with assisting us with planning a Disney cruise. Amber pays attention to the details and provided us with many travel/activity options.

Pleasant and answered my questions.

Amber booked a Spring Break trip for our group of parents and seniors. She was quick, responsive and got us a great deal. But she really came through when our trip was cancelled due to Covid 19 . Thanks goodness we used a travel agent. She has earned our future business. Thanks Amber!

Amber was so easy to work with! She was very friendly and always gave us her honest opinion. All our questions were answered quickly. She listened to what we wanted for our destination wedding and met all our needs. She also made booking the trip easy for all our family and friends. She really made the travel part of wedding planning stress free for us. We would recommend Amber to anyone planning to travel!

When we initially contacted Amber, we were just looking around at places that we could potentially go for our honeymoon, as we were kind of clueless and had no idea where to start. I emailed Amber on Friday evening, and by Tuesday evening we had our entire trip booked with her. She asked us several questions as to what was important to us, and then found 15 options in 3 locations with the exact room we would have, the flight times/airlines, what all was included, etc. I was nervous we would have little things pop up that had fallen through cracks but the entire trip went off without a hiccup. Because of Amber, we were able to thoroughly enjoy our honeymoon and not have a single worry in the world. If we take a trip in the future, I wouldn’t trust anyone but her!! Best decision we’ve made!

Very friendly, knowledgeable and quick to respond

Amber was able to book everything for us in a matter of 30 minutes in what was taking me 2 days to try and do. She even managed to get us a 1 stop flight. I will be going back to her again.

We came to Amber knowing we wanted to go to a Caribbean Island, but unsure of which one, as it was very overwhelming looking into it ourselves. We told her our wish list for our vacation. She went through a couple of islands with pros and cons, and sent us home with websites to look through. We decided on Aruba. Our next visit was very smooth. We told her the dates we were interested in and she booked the whole trip right there. We do not travel a lot so this was very helpful.

Our resort was everything we hoped it would be. There was plenty to do on site, but we also took advantage of the many tours offered. We requested an oceanview room and that is exactly what we got. It was gorgeous and just wonderful to walk right out our patio door to the beach.

If we were to travel to the Caribbean again, I would choose a more tropical, rather than desert landscape. The resort areas were beautiful, but the rest of the island was barren.

Thank you Amber for all of your hel

Amber is very helpful and accommodating with special requests

Everything thing was just great she did a nice job of getting everything set up. I just want to say the hotel in Vancouver the Days Inn was not much. Small and over priced. That was one thing we didn't care for.

"One of the best trips of our lives".....is how I would describe our Cancun
vacation in March, 2017. AND, it was all due to the help and professional
guidance of our travel agent, Amber McLaughlin. Though my husband and I have never personally met Amber, our daughter recommended her and what a great recommendation this was. I have since recommended her to the rest of my family who will take this same vacation in December.
Since we have traveled to lots of foreign spots, we were familiar with how traveling works. However, this particular trip was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure for our family of five because Amber was able to remove all the 'pain-in-the-neck' details that we have encountered with other trips. She carefully arranged non-stop flight times while accommodating all of our ages - from 5 - 71. She sent us information for helping us choose the best resort rooms and took care of all the transportation both coming and going. Great gal/great trip.

Amber was great to work with and was very helpful in finalizing the last minute arrangements.

she was detailed and answered questions timely

From the start of the planning process Amber was very friendly to deal with. I was happy to hear a response back in a timely manor with details about options for different resorts in Mexico. I had a large group of people traveling so we had quite a few hurdles to jump and Amber handled them very well. As far as the trip, we had a great time and everyone was impressed with the resort! Just wish we had more time there! I would recommend Amber to anyone.

Amber is Great and I have recommended over 5 people to her

I've worked with Amber on numerous occasions and she is second to none! She's booked multiple trips to Mexico for my husband and me; a group trip of 14 persons to Mexico; a European trip including both England and Ireland for my Mom and me; and 2 girls' getaways (one to Scottsdale and one to Hawaii)! Amber can do it ALL. And, she does it effortlessly with enthusiasm and a smile.

Every trip I plan includes Amber (and yours should too)! She is spot-on when it comes to thinking of things that I don't account for (what types of activities does everyone like; is everyone the same energy-level; etc.). She is also very cognizant of finding the right price and the right amenities for what I want to do. She makes recommendations for the best sites/hotels/resorts, etc.

Lastly, Amber is really focused on making sure that we have a great time. I can tell that she is passionate about what she does and wants to ensure that we (and every one of her travelers) has an excellent experience

Amber was great when booking our trip to Mexico, but unfortunately due to the COVID 19 we had to cancel. We had bought the Travel Insurance , which was good, but Amber took care of cancelling the trip and getting our refund.
We look forward to booking a new vacation with her next year!

What I most appreciated about Amber was that she shared choices that met our needs and were within budgt. She was prompt, helpful, and easy to work with.

Amber did a great job helping us plan our honeymoon! We told her where we wanted to go, how much we wanted to spend, and everything turned out amazing! She was very responsive to our emails from the time between booking the trip and the actual departure date! We had trouble with our airline not allowing us to check in online, but we called Amber right away and it was all taken care of within a few hours!

Amber was awesome!! I called to change my travel plans and add another person 10 minutes before her day was over, she stayed late to make sure the extra person was booked and locked in at the rate quoted. I highly recommend amber for any travel arrangements!

Amber has been our travel agent for many years and has booked over a dozen trips. She is the best!!

We have used Amber’s expertise in booking any cruises that we have taken & she has done an excellent job for us. Very professional & easy to work with.

Amber is very responsive and thorough. Amber was quick to jump in when I had an unexpected issue pop up - she even checked in on her day off.

Working with Amber for this trip was amazing. She responds promptly, provides any answers to questions or concerns, and helped me to schedule an amazing trip to Mexico for some R&R with my boyfriend. We loved the hotel, the flight times were perfect and we had no complaints!! Thank you Amber I look forward to working with you again!

Amber was a pleasure to work with. She was very helpful since this was my first time going to Mexico planning a honeymoon. She was very patient, and hard working with sending us many options. I will be using her again!

She booked 60+ people for our destination wedding. My guests shared they had a positive experience and she was very helpful. It felt very stress free working with her as a bride. Which made planning for the wedding even easier. If there was a concern or issue it was taken care of and usually before I even was aware that there was an issue. Thank you Amber for taking care of all the travel arrangements and making it so easy.

She was outstanding

Amber has always gone the extra mile for us !!

She was exceptional and was willing to go the extra mile on a short notice.

She is awesome

Amber was very polite and prompt with her follow up with us on any questions we had regarding our trip. Our trip went very smooth, the Condo unit where we stayed was very nice along with all the tours we went on were outstanding. I would highly recommend Janet to friend and family anytime. I will use Amber four my business travels for now on going forward.
We would schedule another vacation thru Janet anytime.

Amber was very helpful in planning this entire trip with us. We didn't even know where to start until we met with her. The whole process went very smoothly. She responded very quickly with any questions we had, and she never failed to keep us in the loop during her booking process.

Our vacation was wonderful. We are grateful that we had Amber as our agent! I would recommend her to anyone.

Amber has helped us book 2 cruises and 3 other out of the country trips. She has been very helpful. If I had questions she always would get me the answer. We have had wonderful trips because of Amber's help. I will definately book again with Amber and Travel Leaders

Always gives great tips and trips. She has never steered us wrong!

Amber was fantastic to work with from start to finish. Very communicative and responsive and was happy to answer any questions.

Amber's communication was excellent--from the time our planning started to the end. Truly appreciated her checking in and keeping us up-to-date. Because of COVID-19 our trip was cancelled, but even though the travel industry was swamped with questions and concerns about travel, Amber always made sure we were in the loop and updated us with our status. I never worried about a thing, as I knew Amber had our back--and I am a planner, so that is saying a lot! After working with Amber on this trip, I am going to start using a travel agent more! It was a pleasure to work with Amber McLaughlin and Travel Leaders, and I highly recommend her services!

Great communication, answered all of our questions and made multiple changes for us! Great Service.

Amber did a wonderful job helping me and my fiancé plan our honeymoon. We went to Hawaii for two weeks, visiting Maui and Kauai. Amber was quick to respond, offered options, and made it super easy to book everything. She answered our questions and helped us through everything which was awesome while we were planning out wedding at the same time. Our flights all went smoothly, the places we stayed were beautiful, she offered some great options for excursions we wanted to do, as well as booked them for us. Overall, a great experience and would definitely recommend her!

Amber thought of everything! Trip went well.

Amber was extremely helpful in planning our first trip to Hawaii. She helped us define our priorities and find accommodations within our budget.

Excellent

Amber was very helpful from start to finish. After listening to our thoughts and wishes for our family vacation, she was able to provide us with some very different options and helped us make the best choice for our family. We are not seasoned travelers, but Amber made the whole process easy for us. Amber made all the arrangements, booked the flights, resort reservations and included transportation to and from the airport. The entire trip was seamless for our family. When we called back after booking to inquire about an upgrade, she was even able to do so at a discounted price! I know this may not have been her doing, but we still give her all the credit! Amber answered all of our questions quickly and efficiently and with a smile. If she happened to be out of the office, one of her co-workers were always available to help. We will definitely use Amber McLaughlin and Travel Leaders again.

Amber has booked a few trips for us now and always pleasant to work with. I appreciate the options she gives, her input, and that she's responsive.

Amber was so helpful through the entire experience. My wife and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary and wanted to go all out. Neither of us have much experience traveling out of the country so we had lots of questions. She answered all of our questions, helped us to weigh the pros and cons of each place we were considering, and handled all of the important details. I'm definitely going to book another trip with Amber.

Amber was very helpful and made the process pretty easy and stress free.

Amber is quick to respond and answer any questions you have. She help us put a trip together in a short notice.

Amber was amazing. She was always available to us and responded to my emails very quickly. We had everything we needed for our trip, and when one of our planned excursions was cancelled unexpectedly, Amber reached out to the company and got us a refund. I definitely recommend Amber to anyone who is considering using a travel agent! She made our trip so easy and worry free!

I loved working with Amber, she was always speedy to respond and had some great suggestions and advice. We had a few very last minute changes to schedule (literally in the airport on the way there) and she handled it all very fast and before we even boarded! It was a pleasure to work with her, and we would definitely use her services again.

We've been working exclusively with Amber for a number of years . The most recent trip was a Caribbean cruise that we were supposed to take the 4th week of March 2020. When COVID-19 became an issue and we were within a couple weeks of our vacation, we decided to change our trip from a cruise to a trip that stayed within the U.S. Amber made all of those changes for us: cancelling the cruise, finding 2 more hotels and changing another hotel and car reservation. And then, a week later when we realized that even that trip would not be possible, she promptly made those last-minute cancellations for us. I know that she was doing the same for many other people during that time. We really appreciated her promptness, and she kept us informed every step of the way. Amber is an A+ professional. We look forward to working with her in the future.

Amber is excellent. She provides level-headed advice amid an uncertain time. Even though she's never been to New York City, she provided excellent guidance and great resources for us to choose from.

Very helpful with everything for our group!

Very professinal in all transactions. Highly knowledgeable in all aspects of our tour. Communications before and during our travels was clear, concise, and valuable.

We had to reschedule our Alaska trip twice because of COVID. Beginning with Amber's initial booking of the trip, which included managing the details of booking 4 different reservations to the rescheduling of the trip, Amber was AMAZING. Her customer service was outstanding throughout. Amber always answered our questions fully, and worked with us on the cruise and its subsequent rescheduling to ensure that we had cabins in our desired location on the ship. Whew! Amber gets the gold medal for her expertise and customer service!

Amber handled the logistics of our large group of 14 very well. Communication was timely, and easy to follow!

Amber was so helpful. She helped up find a great resort in a short amount of time. She pointed us to a very useful airport service that saved us a lot of time and for that we are grateful. She had all the information necessary for travel handy and made sure we were able to get through the process without a hitch, especially during these times where COVID testing is required.

Amber's service was excellent! She covered every aspect and was very thorough.

Amber did a great job of finding the right trip for us in a short amount of time and with Covid going on at the time of scheduling a trip! Our Honeymoon turned out as expected having talked to Amber about the specific resort we stayed at.

Amber has planned 90% of our trips and has never stirred us wrong. We leave it up to her to pick resorts/hotels etc. and they all have been great.

Amber took care of EVERYTHING! She booked our flights, our hotel and made sure we had all of the information needed regarding our stay. She was very easy to get a hold off and honestly a delight overall!

Amber did a great job booking and coordinating for 13 of us traveling from Minnesota to the Dominican Republic/Dreams Flora for a destination wedding-this was the first time for all of us traveling to the DR. She was easy to communicate with and provided all the information for that we needed, she had our transportation to and from the airport coordinated as well- it was seamless. We had a wonderful wedding celebration and vacation! Thank you Amber for a memorable experience!

It was a beautiful trip! Thank you so much!!!

Amber did amazing at helping us plan our trip with our crew of 13! She helped make our trip planning very easy and non-stressful at a very very reasonable price!

Amber arranged travel for 120 attendees to my daughter’s destination wedding. The experience was flawless, and we had the most fantastic time ever.

I went The Breathless Resort in Punta Cana for Bruce and Jasmines wedding and it was just beautiful!! We had a lovelty time with family and friends and enjoyed the beach, pool and the loverly tropical resort!!

I attended a wedding in the DR April 2025, where the travel was facilitated by Amber. I was responsible for my mother (coming from DE and my daughter coming from TX). I worked with Amber as new issues emerged to mitigate the issues. Not once did Amber say she could not help me. As a matter of fact, she made magic. We overcame all challenges which would not have been possible without Amber's "can do it" attitude. Thank you, Amber for ensuring the trip was the best trip ever for my entire family!

The experience was a destination wedding. As a close family member I had the privilege of watching the planning (drama, lol) take place on the bride's side, but without being tasked with anything. The introduction info packet was just enough to get excited about the event and interested in the destination. Similarly the reminders to guests about room choice and booking, airline tickets, and entry requirements were appropriately frequent enough without being nagging. There was no need for help calls before or during the trip. All played out as as scheduled. Did not hear any complaints from other guests (130 persons). I strongly recommend Amber as an agent. The location (Breathless Resort & Spa) was ideal. Large enough to get some quiet time, but also packed with events and locales to enjoy bonding with the different sides of the family. Restaurant and food choice was ample. Service was good. Safely back at home now sharing lots of beautiful pictures.

Amber has always provided us the most detailed and accurate trip reservations. She finds the best and safest method of transfers from the foreign airports to hotels. She follows up with us to ensure the drivers have been on time . We know the trip information Amber develops is complete and up to date. Many of our friends use Amber and we have used her for years for trips all through western and eastern Europe.

Stress free travel with Amber! Working with Amber is such a joy. She was on top of every detail of our travel experience and continued to keep us informed about our cruise , when we needed to sign up for additional add on events and went through things step by step as our cruise date approached. If you want a stress free experience on your next trip you should reach out to Amber

Excellent! She handled all the details of our trip.

Amber adeptly handled all our issues for this somewhat complicated trip. Her responses were always very prompt and right on the money.

Amber is an amazing agent! She not only helped us book trips, two years in a row, but she also went out of her way to help us with the travel emergency during her own vacation time. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a travel agent and will continue to use her in the future.

Everything went smooth and painless. She did all the work, and we had all the fun!

Amber is incredibly professional and responsive while still coming off as very friendly. Was an absolute pleasure working with her and every part of our trip was easy thanks to her!

Hello my dear,
Everything was absolutely spectacular. All the hotels/B&B's amazing, tours amazing, flights perfect, travel agent the best. You are a great travel agent and will for sure be working with you again.
Thank you so very much Amber.

I appreciate all the work Amber put into my vacation. She not only answered all my questions with booking my trip. She also helped answer questions will I was on vacation. I appreciate the fact that Amber checked into several hotels, but in the end made sure that I selected the hotel that I felt I wanted to stay at. She was very interested in the hotel that I stayed at and asked if I could send pictures to her to get a better idea of the resort. I thought that was very nice as she wants the best for her clients

I was in contact with Amber concerning our plans to take a cruise in April or May in 2023. She found 5 cruises for me to pick from and I chose the Princess Cruises. She was very helpful in helping me setup the new Medallion that is required for this cruise. I thank Amber for doing a great job planning our cruise, and I would recommend her for your travel needs.

Amber has been fabulous to work with. Our trip involved using a large, previous (Covid) trip credit to book a new, upgraded resort with multiple rooms, airport transportation to/from our resort in Playa del Carmen. We ended up changing the resort twice based on online reviews and Amber handled all the changes like the professional she is. She responded to questions quickly and made us feel very confident in our selections. The trip ran very smoothly - there is no question that resorts and airlines respect bookings from travel agents and seem to go out of their way to provide better customer service. We were even able to use a discount voucher for one of our excursions - ATV and zip lining in the jungle!

Amber was very helpful for our trip planning/booking and helped us with every detail and question we had (which were quite a few)! Would highly recommend Amber and will definitely reach out to her in the future for travel planning!

Amber was very knowledgeable! We received a detailed itinerary that we very much appreciated.

I wasn't sure about using a travel agent because I like to be the one in control, but I couldn't be happier that we decided to work with Amber to book our honeymoon. From helping us pick our destination to updating us the many times our flights changed, she was always prompt and very helpful. The morning of our return, our first flight was delayed and it looked unlikely that we wouldn't make our connection. We did, but Amber helped us develop a backup plan in case we didn't. I felt so much more at ease knowing I had someone to help with all the logistics!

Amber is friendly, informative, and thorough! She provided us with so much valuable information that helped to ease my mind about traveling during a pandemic!

Amber is excellent! She takes the worry out of travel planning and makes everything look easy, even with the complexities of making arrangements for a group of 10 people with different wants and preferences. Just as important, she is a wealth of information, answering all of our questions (and we always have questions) and making sure we know what we need to know about our international trip. That was even more critical than ever with the additional "issues" involved in travel during a pandemic. She has managed 8 Family Vacations for us as well as many other international trips over the years, and we would recommend her highly and without reservation.

Working with Amber was not only an easy going process, but she made the planning process enjoyable! She had every step and detail of our trip planned which made our honeymoon even more amazing. We highly recommend Amber!

Very responsive, detailed, and helpful.

Amber was Fantastic! She helped up pick the perfect location for our Honeymoon on our budget and we definitely plan to go back! Thanks for the unforgettable experience!

Good

Amber and my daughter planned such an amazing trip for us. It was the first trip my daughter had planned and Amber led her in such a wonderful direction. First asking what we wanted and then giving her multiple ideas based on those. I would trust any future trips we take with Amber planning them.

Amber was excellent and very accommodating! I will use her again when booking our next vacation.

Amber helped my husband and I book our very first trip out of the U.S. to Cancun. We wanted to go somewhere super touristy to get our feet wet with our first international travel. We had saw this resort on a TV show, and she did some investigating to find us a great deal that included our ideal length of stay, airfare, airport transport, amusement park, and travel insurance with about $200 to spare in our budget. While in Cancun, we stayed at the Occidental, which wasn't high-end but also not run-down. We did several of the Xcaret parks, which I recommend only if you have a lot of time. The parks are very time-consuming and ate up most of our stay. Our biggest regret was not spending at least one day just relaxing on the awesome beachfront of the resort. I definitely recommend Amber, and I hope to work with her again soon!

Amber was very helpful, prompt responses to questions.

Amber found the perfect place for my wife and I to spend our honeymoon! She also answered all questions I had very quick. Traveling out of country during a pandemic can be stressful. Amber made sure that the process was easy and relaxing. Thanks, Amber!

My parents have worked with Amber for years and love her, but this was my first time working with her directly myself. She is very knowledgeable, helpful and responsive to questions. She even checked in with us during our vacation to make sure we hadn't encountered any issues. We did have an issue with the resort after we had booked and Amber was able to use her contacts and get everything sorted out for us in a timely fashion. I will definitely work with Amber in the future!

Amber was great to work with while setting up our honeymoon to Sandals Grande in St. Lucia. We experienced a flight cancelation early on and almost last minute flight change due to the hurricane and Amber continued to stay in contact with us until we felt confident in our trip. She made the trip planning so much easier and took a lot of the planning out of it for us.
Thank you again Amber!

I met Amber nine years ago when she planned a trip for my husband and me to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. She sent us to Couples Negril, in Negril, Jamaica. Our trip and celebration exceeded all of our expectations!

Amber is professional, conscientious and very knowledgeable about destinations for any occasion or celebration. She is particularly knowledgeable about beach destinations outside of the U.S. Amber is also patient and caring, and will spend time listening to all of your wishes. She will put together a number of options for you and is willing to discuss them with you in person, by email or phone. She is quick to respond and always pleasant.

Since our first trip, Amber has sent us to Negril, Jamaica; Ocho Rios, Jamaica; Riviera Maya, Mexico; and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Every trip has been awesome with memories that will last forever.

I highly recommend Amber as your Travel Agent. Amber will make sure that you have the very best travel experience!

Amber was very good to work with! She helped us figure out the best and most reasonable option for our group. She was quick to respond to emails and always willing to help!

Amber was very knowledgeable and helpful. I had never been to Mexico. She put me at ease regarding traveling to Mexico. I look forward to working with you in the future.

Amber did a great job helping us pick a vacation destination and resort. She was very knowledgable about the resorts and provided a lot of options. She had some great tips on traveling with children, too. We had a great time!

Amber was very patient answering all my questions as we were deciding which location we would travel to. We ultimately ended up at Sandals Emerald Bay in Exuma, Bahamas. It was a wonderful experience, both pre and post travel!

Amber is friendly and very knowledgeable. I like options, so Amber was very patient with me looking up various places to stay and best flight options. For future traveling needs, I will definitely seek out Amber!
