November 18, 2007 - Crystal City, MO – Mary True, a Platinum Certified Sandals Specialist and senior agent from TotallyTrips.com, was recognized by Sandals Resorts at the Sixth Annual Travel Agent Recognition (STAR) Awards held October 25 – 27, 2007 at the Sandals Grande St. Lucian Spa & Beach Resort. TotallyTrips.com was recognized as Sandals Best of the Best. They were also nominated for and received an award for being a Top Ten Sandals Agency Worldwide. The resort company recognized and paid tribute to Preferred Sandals Agencies (PSA) and Certified Sandals Specialists (CSS) from around the world including the U.S., U.K and Canada.
“Travel agents like Mary are essential in bringing the Sandals Resorts’ vacation experience to life for their clients,” stated Sandals Chairman Gordon “Butch” Stewart. “I wish to commend Mary for her work as an ambassador of Sandals Resorts as we celebrate the next 25 years serving couples with Dream Caribbean vacations.”
TotallyTrips.com began selling Sandals less than two years ago and has rapidly risen to being a leading (PSA) Preferred Sandals Agency. Mary attributed much of the success to the fact that as a Preferred Sandals Agency, TotallyTrips.com is privy to Sandals Resorts’ dynamic education programs and award-winning marketing and advertising efforts. “Special PSA perks ensure that our clients have priority when it comes to planning their Luxury Included destination wedding, honeymoon, or romantic getaway,” commented Mary. “Totallytrips.com is consistently updated on all new developments and services offered at each Sandals Resort or Beaches (Sandals family vacation brand) Resort.”
Sandals Resorts began the Star Awards in 2001 as a way to recognize the top travel agents selling Sandals, and at the same time showcase the newest in resort product and on-island attractions. The Sixth Annual Star Awards celebrated brand new initiatives, including the opening of the $70 million all-suite Mediterranean Village at Sandals Grande Antigua, as well as a preview of the $100 million mega-expansion project at Beaches Turks & Caicos, to include the Caribbean’s largest waterpark, plus a 180 all-suite Italian Seaside Village.
