Bella Vacations has assisted hundreds of happy travelers on trips world wide. Lynn prides herself on planning vacations down to the last detail. Here is what some of Bella Vacation clients have to say:

 

"Hi Lynn, saying we had a wonderful time is truly an understatement. The Ruby was fantastic; service, excellent and very good food. We really enjoyed every moment. Thank you for the wine as well as arranging the $50 credit. We appreciate your efforts. The weather was beautiful - high 70's low 80's most days. Last day in Venice was hot, but one hot day out of 16 is not bad! Everything was great!"

"Hi Lynn,  I am attaching a few of my favorite photos from St. Lucia. The island was absolutely gorgeous and the hotel was stunning. The food was fantastic and the locals were extremely friendly and pleasant. We had the most amazing time and we couldn't have imagined a more perfect place for our honeymoon. The Anse Chastane had the perfect blend of activities and relaxation. We snorkled, scuba dove, jungle biked and went sailing. Thank you so much for all of your help throughout the planning process. You were always very responsive and we appreciate your advice and quick responses to our questions. You were a pleasure to work with. We will definitely recommend you to all of our family and friends for their travel needs. Thank you for helping us to achieve the perfect honeymoon! Best,"

"Darling Lynn, We had a magnificent trip to Israel and once the flight from US Air Hell was behind us we went on to conquer the Middle East. Thank you for waking up in the early hours that morning to comfort and advise….It was somehow better with you there on the phone. I plan to send some pictures via email once I learn how to do it and one day soon we’ll have coffee too. This is me 11 months after a liver transplant hanging out in Jerusalem. Thanks for help getting here. Love and Kisses,"

"Hey Lynn, we just wanted to thank you so much for planning our trip. We had a fabulous time! The resort was amazing and the food was delicious. We had a good time shopping in Playa- we couldn't believe how safe we felt in town. Playa is such a cool area. We did go to Tulum one day- it was very hot! It was neat to see though. We took a bus down on our own and we walked around the ruins.  I would definitely recommend the Royal to anyone going to Mexico - it was great! Thanks again for your help and I hope we can talk soon."

"Hi Lynn, Bridget Rosewell here. We just got back very late Saturday. Had a great time! Some of the sites were breathtaking.  You placed us on the ship beautifully - our kids were around the corner, elevators were readily accessible (as were the stairs) and the food (oh my !) was just two flights up. Perfect! Thanks."

"Hi Lynn, we had a fabulous trip thanks to you and your travel knowledge! Secrets Maroma Beach, was the BEST resort for our honeymoon. I would highly recommend you to friends and family looking to book a trip! We will be sure to book through you for years to come. Everything was planned perfectly. Thank you!"

"Hi Lynn, we had such a wonderful time! Both of us are changed people now. Thank you for planning us such an amazing trip. We loved it and have decided to travel more and therefore will both be in touch soon about the next trip. Dan says you are a genius."

"Our trip was truly amazing and you were such a huge help... I'm not just saying that. Everything was pretty much perfect. We forgot the digital camera, but we bought disposable ones and took some pretty nice pics, so hopefully we can pass some good ones along to you at some point."

"Thank you again for ensuring that we had such a wonderful experience on our trip. It was first class starting with the ride from the airport in the Mercedes. I would definately stay there again. You have always done a wonderful job picking the right places with all the right things. II look forward to talking with you in the future and planning more trips. Sincerely,"

"The honeymoon was PERFECT! We had such a great time and had amazing weather. It “rained” a couple of mornings – only about 10 minutes and then we were lucky enough to see 3 rainbows right after the rain! John and I would definitely recommend the resort if you have anyone looking for a quieter place to go. There was an outdoor restaurant on the water (on site) that had breakfast, lunch, and dinner – and the bar was open all day. We were able to create tab and pay at the end of the week rather than after each meal. We were also able to walk into Grand Case every night for the best dinners we’ve ever had. It was about a 5 minute walk. We rented a car one day and drove around the island. Other than that, we spent our time on the beach at the hotel – we were so excited to just RELAX after the past couple of months. Please feel free to give me a call if you’d like to know more about the resort/location so that you can pass the info on to other travelers."

"Hi Lynn, our honeymoon was absolutely wonderful!  The weather was beautiful (as you know) and it was very relaxing. Spent one of the days in Tulum and went to Xel-Ha.  Thank you for all your help and I will certainly keep you in mind for myself and friends when booking travel. Hope you had a wonderful vacation!

"Lynn: We had an amazing trip! The driver and the guides were outstanding. During our trip we needed to make some changes and they were done effortlessly. Many thanks for making our trip a once in a lifetime experince!"

"Lynn: You caught me by surprise yesterday. You asked about our Concierge Class. It was wonderful; we enjoyed the oer d'hoeuvres, and the flowers, not to mention a little bigger space and the veranda. The only thing I believe we would do differently if we take another trans-Atlantic cruise is to fly to Europe and cruise home. The days at sea were beautiful and so relaxing and the ports were delightful. We went into Paris (Jan had never been there and I think everyone at some time in their lives should go to Paris), we toured around Kent England going to Leeds Castle and Canterbury. Then we went into Amsterdam and on to Hamburg. We were so busy and having so much fun that we were worn out when we got home -- but what's a vacation for anyway!! It was really an experience that neither of us will ever forget, and your getting us that up grade as a big part of it. Thanks so much. Sincerely,"

"From the time we arrived in Cancun, we knew that we chose the right person to go through.  The private Mercedes Benz transfer from the Airport to Secrets Maroma Beach made everything seem so incredibly personal.  Upon arrival, they had immediately upgraded our room to include an Ocean View.  We had the perfect weather the whole week.  There were many different restaurants to go to, all of them were terrific! Lynn really set us up perfectly and we cannot wait to book again with her."

"Hi Lynn,
It was fabulous.  We enjoyed everything--the couples we dined with, the excursions, the perfect weather, the food, the ship....nothing negative to report.  I wanted to stay on and go back, but they made us disembark!  

I wish I had been born rich so I could cruise like the one couple on the ship--164 times!!!  This was their 9th one this year.    But then maybe I wouldn't appreciate it as much.  Thanks for all you did.  It was unforgettable."

"Josh and I just wanted to thank you for all you did in helping us to plan our trip to Rivera Maya". We had a wonderful time, the resort was amazing and we had absolutely NO problems what so ever our whole trip. Thanks again, for everything! Sincerely,"

"Just returned from our Globus trip to the Grand Canyon. The guide was the best I ever had, and I have traveled a lot. Great trip! Lynn researched this trip for the 4 of us and when she suggested Globus I knew it would be a great trip. And it was AWESOME!"

"Thank you, Lynn, for arranging our trip to Grand Cayman. The island is beautiful, the hotel is fabulous, and the service is incredible. Thanks to you and your contacts at the Ritz, this vacation was truly a VIP experience."

 

Laurie Moroco

 

"Lynn: Jan and I had a wonderful time on our Hawaiian cruise. We got home last night. She has checked her work schedule as we were eyeing a couple of Trans-Atlantic Cruises and had to see which of the two she could swing. So... we would like you to book the Aprill 11, 2010 Constellation crossing. As they say in the islands, "Mohala"."

 

Mike McBride

"When my husband and I decided to travel around the world, we had no idea how much advance planning would be involved! We could not have done it without Lynn's help!

 

Not only did Lynn find and book tours, make flight arrangements, schedule private transfers, and secure wonderful accommodations, she followed along with our 3-month sojourn making certain that nothing went awry during our trip.  

 

Knowing that Lynn was always on top of things, we were able to relax and enjoy "worry-free" our visits to Australia, China, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, India, Egypt and Spain."

"Hi Lynn,

 

Trip was Fabulous!!! A ++++. We had a great time. The Maroma is beautiful. We loved that it was small and personal. Staff was warm and nuturing. Wonderful.

 

I'm thinking I forgot to send you a group picture. The first one is us at lunch at the restaurant on the beach. First row is Julie, Brian, Lisa, Rhonda. Second Row is John E and John B.

 

The other picture is sitting at Freddy's on the beach. I have lots of pictures -- if you want something of the property, let me know."

"Lynn,

Again, what a great service, but I can't believe you booked us on a smokers only flight! Just kidding! :)

But seriously, it has been a pleasure to work with you. You have been available at unbelievable hours, from early in the morning to late at night. Everytime I call, you make me feel like I'm your only client. And every time I hang up the phone, I can rest assured you have taken care of any snag or otherwise complication.

After ten years of living and travelling in Latin America, I have dealt with countless travel challenges. Working with you, however, has been smooth sailing since the first trip you booked for me."

Sam Logan

"Thanks again for everything, Lynn!!What a trip!

Everything was perfect.

It was beautiful and perfect, the rooms were great and the stay couldn't
have been nicer!!!! Thank you very much!!!

Thanks"

Eric Hunter

"Hey Lynn,

Thanks for your help in organizing our trip. Things could not have been any smoother! We greatly appreciated you upgrading us to be able to use the concierge room at the Hyatt Poipu Beach. We took full advantage of it.

Next we are planning to go snowboarding. Are you familiar with good locations out west? If so, I will get the dates from Jacqui and we can get started on planning that. Now that I have been back home almost 24 hours, I am a bit nervous that we don't have our next vacation planned yet!

Jack

"It was so fabulous... beyond words! We had such a great time. The ladies were all very very impressed with all of the arrangements, how nice and kind the folks were at the Sheraton. Such a great location! You know it's a success when they told me: "boy, weren't we lucky to find Lynn?" And they all told me they are going to use you for personal trips so, congrats on that score!"

 

Ellen M. Marcus

"Lynn,

Christy and i just wanted to say thank you again for planning our honeymoon. Everything exceeded our wildest dreams. Don't be surprised if you hear from us or some of our friends in the near future! It was so nice to be able to talk with someone who was so familiar with the area and was able to give us suggestions of places to visit. We never would have left the resort if it weren't for your advice. Once again thank you for planning our dream honeymoon."

Jake Halasowski

P.S. we decided to attach a couple of pictures from the trip. I'm sure you know where they were taken, but they are Tulum, Aventura, and LeBlanc!

 

 

"Hi Lynn! RJ and I both just wanted to let you know again what a WONDERFUL time we had! It was so nice to go and not have to worry about a thing! The accomodations were beautiful and our tours were so much fun! We can't wait to schedule our next trip with you!!! Thank you so much for everything!!"

 

Erin and RJ

 

"Thank you for making our honeymoon a once in a lifetime adventure and event. Fantastic job!"

 

Michelle and Jake Adomonis

"Planning a trip with Lynn Ciccarelli is a complete pleasure! She has a wealth of information to share with the traveler and wise advice for travel abroad. Working with Lynn eliminates the uncertainties of booking a trip on your own. Lynn provides excellent service to her customers and goes the extra distance to make sure you have a memorable vacation. She truly cares about each one of her customers. All the best,"

"Lynn, Thank you for suggesting the Ritz in Grand Cayman. What a creative itinerary! You delivered all our wishes. The travel, hotel, service and day trips were all fabulous. The entire process was effortless on our end. We have referred you to several of our friends, with confidence! Looking forward to Mexico in May!"

 

Dorothy Andreas Tuel

The Sewickley Spa

"Lynn, Just read your message and we are back from our trip. We had a wonderful time. The Adventura Spa Palace was beautiful, had fantastic service and restaurants, and took care of all our needs. We would recommend you and your agency to all our friends. You did a fantastic job with all the arrangements and we would go again at the drop of at of a sombreo. Thank you for your coordination and your expertise. "

 

Hank and Judy Simon

P.S. We are enjoying our bit of tan. It is great to have a bit of color on this snowy morning in Wisconsin.

"Lynn, We just wanted to take the time to thank you for organizing our flight and hotel reservations for our honeymoon. Everything from the limo pick-up at the airport to the room location at the resort went as planned. We decided not to get an ocean view room, and you made it just as good by selecting a room with a beautiful tropical view. We spoke with other couples at the resort who were very unhappy with their travel agent service. We were happy to say that we had a great experience because we used Bella Vacations. We will definitely use you again to organize our next special vacation. Thanks,"

 

Christian & Jamie Hunter

"Hi Lynn, Just a quick note to let you know, we had a WONDERFUL vacation. Everything (except the flight) went smoothly and we loved the place. We decided to take two side trips to Chichen Itza , and Isla Mujeres, and both were exceptional. We spent part of the day Friday at Playa del Carmen enjoying the town and spent some time at Playa Palace . Also a very nice place, but we liked ours better. I have never been on a trip like that, but we all decided it was way too short and we will have to return. Thank you so much for all your help in planning our great adventure. Talk to you soon, I hope,"

 

Barb Ziegler

"Lynn, Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Mexico was great and all of travel plans were PERFECT because of YOU! We really appreciate everything you did for us! Enjoy the truffles. Sincerely,"
