G'Day
and Aloha from Mike,
I have now been with McCoy Custom Travel for over six years. I started
off as a designer of Tahiti Honeymoon Packages for the Company but
soon fell in love with developing Fiji as a perfect Holiday Destination.
The Fijians are extremely friendly and make your experience truly
memorable.
My background is in Managing Travel Agencies in Wash DC and Maryland
with trips to Carribbean and Europe. Before that I was teaching SCUBA
out of Waikiki and conducting Boat Dive Excursions all over the Hawaiian
Islands. I am originally from Down under, Aussie Born and raised.
Did 10 years in RAAF specializing in Catering and Hospitality , and
made sure I visited every Winery across that vast sun burnt Country.
I have lived in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. I have designed
some great Australian Itineraries.
With McCoy Travel I have been exploring the South
Pacific each year. Vanuatu in 2005 was a fabulous Escape and I got
to visit the beach used in the Survivor Series on TV.
Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea in 2007 simple took
my breath away for their sheer Beauty . I had a stingray swim right
under my Overwater Bungalow at Bora Bora Nui Resort.
Also in 2007 I visited some prestigious Fijian Resorts. I stayed in
an Overwater Bure at the new Likuliku Lagoon Resort. I experienced
the Villa at Jean Michel Cousteau Resort, rated as one of the finest
Honeymoon Villas in the Southern Hemisphere. Offshore I saw my first
Devil Ray. I was pampered at Namale, and also at the amazing Nukubati
Island Resort (make sure you visit a Black Pearl Farm).
In 2008 , I fell in love with the Heated Infinity Plunge Pools in
the Premium Vales at Royal Davui Island. The views were private and
panoramic. Such peace is a highlight of my journeys. They also have
massive spa tubs in the Royal Davui Vales with an electric skylight
you can open above the spa tub. !! How they got these huge tubs onto
this Island is a mystery :)
I also stayed and dove at Beqa Lagoon Resort , and I give them very
high praise for the Meal Quality and Presentation. Each meal was a
Gastronomic Revelation. The diving is amongst the best in the World
, and I have over 4000 dives under my belt.
Taunovo Bay Villas are million dollar estates with HOT outdoor Jacuzzis
and lovely private pools.
I also revisited Yasawa Island Resort and there were baby turtle tracks
in the sand in fronty of my Bure when I woke uo in the morning. Yasawa
has a phenominal Beach and some of the best Fiji weather you could
enjoy.
In 2009 I will be exploring the new developments
in Waikiki , and maybe back to the South Pacific !! Sigh. Has to be
done!!
I would love to help you design YOUR
perfect South Pacific Vacation.
I love living on Maui with my fantastic kids (one of each!) so I understand
Family Vacation needs.
We at McCoy enjoy being part of your wonderful dream vacations.
