Travel agents (who's the best?)

[Oakie]

We're about to book our tropical island holiday to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We have an island, we have dates, now all we want is the best deal. (Samoa for a week in June in case you're curious)

So who is the best Travel Agent in the land?

Oh, and if anyone can recommend a resort where little children are vigorously hunted to extinction (or at the very least, banned) that would be great too.

Marg Sewell at Holiday Shoppe, Paraparaumu. She's a personal friend, straight as they come and knows the travel industry inside out. marg@holidayshoppe.co.nz. Tell her Geoff James recommended her.

Please come back and tell us when you do - we hate kids too, and it would be our WORST nightmare to be stuck on a remote island with a pile of them...

Had a look tonight thru the Air NZ website and the most 'child un-friendly' on Samoa is 'Sinalei Reef Resort and Spa' which does not allow children under 11 to stay. Including air fares that starts at about $4000 for 7 nights for two people (and a king size bed ... yipee)
The one we're probably going to do is 'Coconuts Beach Club and Resort' which bans kids under two and charges all other kids as adults. They go from $3400 for 7 nights for 2 people including air fares ... and once again a king size bed.

although we are taking sprog with us, we are off to Samoa in a month - we got the good deal with Air NZ - 9 nights, business class, all food and accom for just over $5000 for 2 adults, one child.
we are staying at Aggie Grey's the new one built last year so not the same market but looking forward to going...
