Highly recommend this travel company! We have never used a travel agent before and I would 100% use this company again. They booked everything including transport to and from the r...
esort. They would’ve booked our flights as well but we had frequent flyer miles to use. This travel was for our honeymoon so it was nice to have one less thing on our plate to plan during that time. They are very quick to respond and flexible in changing whatever you want. They work within the budget you provide and don’t push for you to book one way or the other. I was always kept in the loop and I was very happy with the service!
Angel was absolutely incredible to work with. She went above and beyond to assist us from start to finish, and the communication was excellent. We actually flew out on Jan 11 — the...
day the FAA temporarily grounded all flights — and she was in constant contact with us throughout that stressful morning. We had an amazing trip and a tremendous experience working with her. Highly recommended.
Angel was super knowledgable and answered all our questions!
Angel helped us plan our dream honeymoon! She sent us so many destinations and resorts within our price range and even helped us reschedule when we postponed our wedding due to Cov...
id. She made sure we were up to date on all of the travel restrictions and readily answered all of our questions. Angel helped make sure our honeymoon was flawless and helped make it the most relaxing vacation we’ve ever been on.
Angel & Island Travel Company were amazing to work with! My husband and I had our destination wedding in the Dominican Republic at the Hard Rock Resort Punta Cana. This was the fir...
st time that either of us had worked with a travel agent, and Angel far surpassed our expectations. From the very beginning, Angel was extremely personable and knowledgeable. We met with one other agent at the beginning; however, we immediately trusted Angel and knew she would be the best person to guide us on our destination wedding journey. We were certainly right! Angel added many thoughtful, gracious touches to our trip that we never expected. We had the trip of a lifetime, and we owe a large part of that to Angel!
My husband and I wanted to honeymoon somewhere neither of us had ever been but we were overwhelmed with all of the resort options. Angel was awesome, she helped us pick Secrets Cap...
Cana in the Dominican and it surpassed anything we could have imagined. Angel took the time to talk to me over the phone about all our travel questions and concerns and gave us great advice for do’s and don’ts being outside of the country. We’ve never used a travel agent before and now we are sold on using Island Travel for future trips!!
Angel is an amazing travel agent and she was absolutely wonderful to work with! My husband and I had a few different ideas about where we wanted to go, but we really didn't know m...
uch about any of the places. Angel provided so much information about each place we were looking and she really helped us narrow in on the Dominican Republic. Angel sent us several properties to look at and helped us make a decision. Our trip was absolutely wonderful and we would absolutely go back! Angel was very responsive, professional, and helpful. We would recommend her to everyone!
We met Angel at a Bridal event during the wedding planning process. We had the idea of where we wanted to go for our honeymoon and Angel sent us information and pictures from the ...
resort, which helped us confirm that was where we wanted to go. Angel was able to get us the lowest rate by price matching for us and she also arranged the private transfers, which was one less thing we had to worry about. We stayed at the Hard Rock in the DR and had the best time ever. The resort was beautiful! Food was amazing! Water was so blue and clear. We felt completely safe and would go back in a heart beat! Thanks Angel!

My wife and I wanted to take a trip for our anniversary. With me being indecisive about where to go and not having the time to do all of the research, Angel stepped in and took th...
e wheel. She was very patient with me and my decisiveness and came through with multiple places/resorts for us to visit. We appreciate how thorough and responsive she is. The place we went with, couldn't have been better. Everything we asked for and more. We'll be working with her again in the near future!
There are so many incredible things that I could say about Angel, including her work ethic, attention to detail and commitment to get things right. But the one thing that will rin...
g true more than any other is that my wedding would have never happened without her. She is so much more than a travel agent and I will be forever grateful for her help. She made our wedding a reality and was with us every step of the way.
Angel worked with us to give us the BEST honeymoon! She listened to our requests and found the most awesome resort to fit all of our needs. We ate spectacularly, were able to relax...
, and explore the local culture and leave the resort for an adventure.
She took care of every detail, booking flights that worked with our needs, private transportation to and from the hotel, fun excursions, and was even able to secure an upgrade to our room.
She’s easy to work with. Super knowledgeable. Exceptionally friendly. I would use her again in a heartbeat for our next vacation.
When it came to our honeymoon we honestly didn’t know where to start. So I started to do my research online and came across Angel’s name for Island Travel Conpany. The reviews were...
amazing so I figured I’d reach out. After our first communication I knew we were in the right hands! She was so amazing and offered so many options for us and in our budget. She was able to share her own experiences at resorts so we could see what true vacations looked like. While we were on our honeymoon we had some hiccups (I got sick) and she was able to even help us while we were away and checked in on us also. I felt like we were in great hands and We couldn’t have planned our honeymoon without her help! I will use this company for all of our further vacations. I truly cannot say enough good things! But expect great things from your first communication with this company.
Angel,
Is beyond amazing and soo easy to work with!! We have had her help with our honeymoon to the Dominican Republic, our birthday trip to Cancun and our current trip to Jamaica....
All have been amazing and beautiful.
Angel is the best. She went above and beyond to make sure we had the best wedding possible. Whenever we had issues with our resort, Angel was the first to step up and help out. ...
She was a life saver. Without her, our wedding and experience would have been a complete disaster. We will definitely be using Island Travel again for any future trips we make to the Caribbean.
I can't say enough positive things about Angel and Island Travel Company! Angel has planned multiple trips for my husband and I. Each vacation has been flawless - from flights to t...
ransfers to accommodations to excursions. My husband and I just came back from an amazing vacation to Mexico. We stayed at Unico in Rivera Maya. Everything was absolutely perfect! Couldn't have had a more relaxing vacation! Many thanks to Angel and Island Travel Company!

iences to help us make decisions based on what we were looking for. We even had questions while we were leaving for our honeymoon and even while we were there and was ALWAYS responsive in a timely manner! We loved working with her and will be using Angel for all of our future travel plans!
My fiancé (now husband) and I had always known we wanted to have a destination wedding. I was very confused on were to start. I reached out to 2 different agents from different com...
panies. 1 never responded after trying to get ahold of her multiple times and the other agent kept giving us the run around. That’s when I was on the knot.com and saw that Angel had high reviews and ratings. That means a lot, given the stress of wedding planning yet alone to another country you’ve never been before! Another thing I liked was that she also lived in the same city as us. I reached out and she contacted me within minutes of my email. And that sums up Angel.. she is on top of her game! Like a mind reader, she answered Q’s for us before we even asked her. Which is because she knows her stuff. She is an expert in this field. She lead us step by step for a year! I felt like I personally knew her without having ever laid eyes on her. Like a friend. When I got stressed, she always reassured me. She clebrated in the small milestones with us. When we had troubles she trouble shouted with us and always was so patient and kind. We had the most amazing and beautiful wedding. It excelled our expectations! We would not have been able to do any of this with out her! I would love to use her for future destination trips we take and would absolutely love to recommend her to anyone who is planning a wedding out of the country! Thank you Angel for being the best! Always reaching out above and beyond! Always being available! And for planning our beautiful beach wedding in the Hard Rock Punta Cana resort!! You’re the best!!!

oothly - we didn't have to worry about if we had a ride somewhere or coordinating pick ups, she handled all of it for us. We couldn't be happier with our choice in choosing Angel to plan our honeymoon! She made our honeymoon in Thailand everything we hoped for.
Angel was truly an Angel! :) My husband and I wanted to go to Thailand for our honeymoon, but with our busy schedules didn't have time to do the research and planning. Angel litera...
lly took care of everything - all we had to do is tell her what we wanted. And the honeymoon was perfect - it incorporated the immersion of culture we wanted as well as the rest and relaxation. We even went to 4 destinations and all of the travel in between was smooth and easy. When we were coordinating for flights, there was an issue with our seats and she stayed on the phone with us into the evening until it was right. She was so sweet and easy to work with, we will definitely use her for our first anniversary trip!
We were both excited and nervous to leave the USA for the first time but thanks to Angel she made us feel so calm and ready for all the great things she had planned for us at Majes...

’s honeymoon in Greece. Not only was she wonderful in all aspects of preparing our honeymoon but she did a fantastic job with all of our accommodations, from our flights to our transportations, to our hotels. We spent 2 nights in Athens, Greece and then took a ferry over to Mykonos, Greece for 6 nights. Both of our hotels were top notch and not to mention the properties were beautiful. Never once did I ever have to worry about anything, everything was taken care of at all times. She went out of her way to provide us with a personalized list of recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants that was beyond helpful and amazing. We visited and/or ate at almost every place she recommended in both Athens and Mykonos and they were all so breathtaking.
This was my first experience working with a travel agent and I’m so grateful I found her. Our honeymoon was an absolute success and will be the most memorable trip for us and Angel will always be one to thank for that.
Angel by far is the real deal! I don’t believe I will ever plan another trip without her assistance. I highly recommend Island Travel Company for all of your travel needs.
My wife and I used Angel to plan our destination wedding!! She helped us pick Punta Cana, Dominican Republic as our location and she is so knowledgeable about the area. We stayed a...
t the Now Larimar resort and she was in contact with us and our 32 guests throughout our stay to make sure everything was going smoothly. She is so attentive and cares about her clients that I would recommend her to everyone! She truly goes above and beyond and I can't wait to work with her again one day!!
We had a fantastic honeymoon thanks to Angel at ITC. She works with your budget and your requests and finds activities and locations that meet your desires to a T. One of the spec...
ial things she did was help us plan the honeymoon departing from my wife's hometown over in Texas where we had the wedding. My wife is already requesting that we make going to Maui a yearly adventure based on how great this experience was. She booked us in one of the nicest and well placed hotels on the island and we had a blast doing the activities she set up which included snorkeling, the luau and hula as well as zip lining. We even had time for the beach and a couple of other self planned additions. I would recommend her to anyone interested in planning a honeymoon or other trips!
Angel was so patient with me regarding our destination wedding. She suggested a great resort to go to and walked us through each step. Weddings can be stressful and I had a couple ...
of breakdowns but Angel was always calm and professional. She made it possible to have the wedding of my dreams on a not so dream budget, would highly recommend!

planning for me! Angel listened to what we wanted and prepared several travel options to choose from. She also took care of airfare. She was very knowledgeable about the resort.

erfect mix of relaxation & adventure and all within our budget. (We went to Couples Negril in Jamaica...I highly recommend).

lways quick to respond and did a great job of explaining all of our options when searching for a destination. She made it easy for us to plan and provided tips on traveling to the Dominican Republic as I believe she told us her husband was from there. I would highly recommend her to someone interest in booking a vacation!
Working with Angel was fantastic! We told her what we were looking for in our honeymoon and she sent us multiple options. She did all of our booking and transportation and made i...

I'm so glad we went through a travel company to arrange our honeymoon! Angel is so friendly, and she is absolutely wonderful to work with. I only had a general idea of what I wante...
d for our Hawaiian vacation, but from our first 30-minute phone consultation, Angel was able to get things going and got back very quickly on different options. She asked all the right questions, and she was able to arrange a trip that would leave opportunities for both relaxing and more rigorous outdoor activities. She had great suggestions, and she knew exactly which hotels to recommend based on our interests. Everything went smoothly, and we had a fantastic honeymoon! I highly recommend!
Angel was a phenomenal travel agent for our honeymoon. She gave us tremendous descriptions to multiple hotels in multiple locations after learning what type of vacation we were loo...
king for. I've since recommended her to several people and they have been extremely pleased with what she came up with for them as well. We will definitely be using her again for our next long getaway. You can have complete trust that she will find the perfect location for your honeymoon.
Angel did a fantastic job helping two inexperienced travelers find the best honeymoon destination! She was there to help us through every step of the way. She was so kind and pat...
ient. We highly recommend Island Travel!
My husband and I had never gone on a honeymoon and decided this was the year we would finally go. We met Angel at a bridal show and knew instantly we would like to work with her. ...
She was so nice and helpful. I never thought we would be able to go on a dream honeymoon and she made it possible. It was our first time out of the country and to be honest we were both a bit nervous. Angel arranged everything from transportation, hotel, and arrival back home. There was never a moment of panic the whole trip because she had thought of everything. She even checked in on us once we arrived to make sure we were okay. She is a stand up lady and I have already spoken to 7 people about her and her wonderful service. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to take an amazing once in a lifetime trip.
I highly recommend Island Travel to anyone! Angel was amazing to work with from the very beginning. After we confirmed the vacation package we wanted for our honeymoon at the Royal...
ton Punta Cana Resort & Casino, she reached out again to see if we would be interested in somewhat cheaper package. It consisted of the same dates and the same resort. She went out of her way to continue to search for us even though we had already committed to a more expensive package. That's great business!
When my husband and I arrived at our resort, we had some issues, so I contacted Angel via email. She responded very promptly, reached out to the resort, and even reach out to a friend of hers that might be able to help us. Everything worked out perfectly and it was just a misunderstanding between my husband, myself, and the resort ... our crankiness from traveling could've been a part of it too. Anyways, Angel reached out to us the next day to see how everything was going and again once we got back to ask how the remainder of our trip was! Again, I highly recommend Island Travel to anyone looking for an amazing vacation, whether it be a honeymoon or a family vacation!
My fiancé (now husband) and I had never booked a vacation through a travel agent before, so we were unsure of where to look! A friend of ours had recommended Angel and Island Trave...
l Company and we could not have asked for a better travel agent and agency to book our honeymoon! Angel was so dedicated to finding a trip destination that fit our vision of what we wanted from a honeymoon, and she did not disappoint! She helped us plan the perfect honeymoon, down to the details, and accommodated our every wish! The process of deciding, then booking, then preparing for the trip could not have gone any smoother. We spoke on the phone for maybe 15-20 minutes discussing our initial vision of what we wanted in a honeymoon, and then we met with her in person for about an hour looking at possible destinations and resorts!! She was so attentive to our needs and extremely professional throughout the whole process. After we chose Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, she helped us find a resort and package within our budget! We had such a wonderful honeymoon, and we could not have planned our trip without Angel and Island Travel!! We will definitely be booking all of our future vacations and trips through Island Travel Company!
When we first started planning our honeymoon without an agent and at the last minute, we were quickly overwhelmed and didn't know where to begin. After speaking with many other loc...
al travel agents, we immediately knew that Angel's personality and travel expertise was going to help us book a monumental trip to kick-off our lives together. And boy did Angel deliver! We just got back from a 10 night, 2 resort honeymoon in beautiful St. Lucia. We honestly could not be any more happy or satisfied with our trip. Angel made everything from planning and booking the trip to transfers while on the island painless and worry free. It's nice to know you have someone, even if remote, on your side to help you with anything that you need while so far away. Angel, we cannot wait to work with you again to see where else you'll take us! Thank you!
My husband and I went with Island Travel Company for our honeymoon planning. Angel Mateo was great! She helped set up everything - all we had to do was tell her what we wanted!
...
We spent 6 nights at the Sofitel resort in an over the water bungalow on the island of Moorea. This is must! It's a tiny island off of Tahiti - very quiet and sweet. The water was SO clear!! Just like the pictures you see online. Every night there was entertainment during dinner and there were tons of options for other entertainment. (I highly recommend the Tahitian Feast & Fire Dancing at Tiki Village!!!)
We then spent another 3 nights at Le Meridian on the Island of Tahiti. We did an inner island tour of Tahiti - it was amazing! It was an all day safari that took us deep into the mountains to the very center of Tahiti! (If you choose to do this, make sure you bring bug spray!! The mosquitoes love tourists!!)
My husband and I plan on going back for one of our anniversaries and we will definitely go through Island Travel Co again for our planning!
We just returned home from Playa Del Carmen, Mexico on Wednesday from a 5 night trip. We stayed at Paradisus La Pearla and everything was amazing. From the time I first I emailed ...
Angel to returning home working with Island Travel was an awesome experience. Everything was super easy to deal with and all my questions, concerns, and request were met very quickly. I would recommend using Island Travel and Angel for any of your travel needs. I know that for any of my traveling needs I will be contacting Island Travel and telling everyone who is traveling to us them as well.
We originally didn't know where we wanted to go for our honeymoon but we were given some great options after we told Island Travel how long we could be gone for. She was so respons...

My husband and I used Angel for our honeymoon to Jamaica and we could not of been more pleased. It felt so overwhelming to search online and choose the best resort that was within...
our price range. I wanted to be able to just show up at the airport with our bags and have everything taken care of, and that is just what Angel provided!! She set up everything from the room to the transportation to our excursions and it was perfect!! I would recommend Island Travel to anyone traveling whether it be for a business trip, family vacation, or honeymoon!! We will never use anyone else, and I certainly will never book another trip on my own! Thanks Angel!
Angel handled every aspect of our trip. She even provided a train schedule so that we would not have to search on our own. The professionalism and knowledge will not be forgotten...
as we refer Island Travel to our friends and family.
I greatly enjoyed working with Angel and Island Travel!! We planned our first trip - our honeymoon - in 2011. She was a breeze to work with and made the process super enjoyable! I ...
appreciated her first hand recommendations and great insights. I felt like a friend was doing all the hard leg work for us! Since the honeymoon we have booked two additional international vacations with her. I won't ever book a big vacation without Island Travel's help! What a great experience!!

I have booked two vacations with Angel at Island Travel and do not feel the need to look elsewhere when it comes to traveling. Both times the budget was met and the expectations we...
re exceeded. I priced out options through other travel agents and on my own and there was no comparison for what Island Travel offered. I will continue to work with my wonderful agent, Angel, for all my future travel plans. I look forward to our next trip in a few months and will of course be using Island Travel!
