Sarah Lake

I had a very positive experience with Sarah Lake when deciding which hotel to book for a short, solo Christmas break in Mauritius. Sarah insisted on speaking to me before she would suggest a location or hotel and she is exceptionally knowledgeable about Mauritius and it's hotels. I would highly recommend contacting Sarah and taking advantage of her experience.

Holiday to USA & Canada

She offered us a number of suitable alternatives of where to stay, she also arranged good times to travel by train from city to city and also with the flight times to and from the UK.

This was the third time we have booked…

This was the third time we have booked a high value holiday with Holidays Please, having always had such a great experience with Susan Pentelow. Sadly, after Susan’s departure in January our experience has not been what we were expecting. When Florida was hit by two hurricanes three weeks before our departure, with our hotel being badly damaged, the support and help received from Holidays Please was extremely poor. The lack of enthusiasm to help us rescue the situation was painful, and eventually we just had to do everything ourselves. Very disappointing. I will not been using Holidays Please for any future holidays.

Reply from Holidaysplease

Thank you for sharing this feedback with us, and I'm genuinely sorry to hear about your recent experience. I can certainly understand your frustration, especially given your past positive experiences with Susan and the high expectations you had for your holiday planning.

First and foremost, I apologize for the difficulties you faced after the hurricanes impacted your Florida trip. We strive to provide excellent service and support to our customers, and I can see that our central support team were assisting you as best they could, it’s clear we fell short of expectations in this instance. The situation must have been incredibly stressful, and I regret that we didn't meet your needs when you needed assistance the most.

I appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and please know we’re taking your comments seriously. We’ll be reviewing our processes to ensure that our customers receive better communication and support, particularly in times of unforeseen circumstances.

I understand your decision not to book with us again, but I truly hope you might reconsider in the future, as we would love another chance to deliver the high level of service you deserve. If there's anything we can do to assist you further or help resolve any outstanding matters, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you again for your feedback.
