Merissa helped us plan our honeymoon. She was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. She was also very knowledgeable about the different resorts we were looking at. We ended up having to reschedule due to the pandemic, and she handled moving our entire trip, flights and all. She was a lifesaver! She made the entire process as stress free as possible. We definitely couldn’t have done it without her! I would highly recommend her for any travel planning you need. We will for sure be using her again in the future!

We had unexpected roadblocks and challenges pop up due to new Covid regulations, but Merissa tackled every one of them and absolutely rescued our vacation. Cannot recommend enough!

I would highly recommend Merissa helped out in such a great way! She was very patient with my family through all the hesitation on going. With all the things going on in the DR during/before our vacation she made sure we were in safe hands and no harm would’ve been caused! Everything she said was going to go on Went that way and exceeded my expectations by so much more! She is one of the best at her job with great deals to go along with that! Please use her if your looking for an amazing vacation!

We have been on 2 trips planned by Merissa Newton at Dream Vacations! She is awesome! Took care of every detail!All we had to do was pack our bags and enjoy!Highly recommend for any trip you are planning!Can’t wait for the next one!! The Hardee Family

We put our big family vacation to London in Merissas hands and she did not disappoint! The flights and the accommodations (which were amazing) were perfectly planned to fit into our timeline, budget, and destination specific desires. This was a larger than normal vacation for our family and Merissa made the planning virtually stress free.Everything was handled, right down to the transportation to and from the airport. All we had to do was show up on time. We will be using Merissa at Dream Vacations for all of our vacations from now on!

Going on a trip? You need Merissa at Dream Vacations! I wont even think of using another agent in the future. The customer service was spot on, and she created our picture perfect package at a great price. She makes everything seamless, and answered all of our questions. Our family made some amazing memories as a result, we cannot wait to plan another trip with this agency!

Merissa Newton at Preferred Travel Partners is excellent! Her attention to detail made our week long adventure at Disney World a joy. She is very detailed and organized and that attention to detail meant things ran smoothly from the moment we left our driveway until we returned. Our hotel, tickets, prearranged fast passes and lunch and dinner reservations along with suggestions of activities outside the parks made for a great vacation. Couldn’t ask for a better agent! I willutilize her services for every vacation we plan in the future! Thanks, Merissa, for helping us make some great family memories!

By far the best travel agent we have ever worked with! Merissa Newton saved our trip after a passport fiasco and got us on a flight to meet up with our cruise ship in San Juan. She also provided nice unexpected touches such as chocolate covered strawberries delivered to our room and an organized travel folder beforehand. We now know exactly who to turn to when planning a trip!

Merissa was so much of a help on our vacation. We decided to elope to Key West and she was a big help the entire way. She was concerned with our experience and very knowledgeable about the entire process. It had been awhile since either of us flew and she helped us every step of the way. She even helped resolve a billing issue that came up with the airline. Highly recommend!!!

The restrooms where very clean. Store clean to. All machines work for drinks. Customer service was good. Would go again. And the gas was a good price. Visiting from Tennessee. Everyone should stop in if your near the beach.

Recently I tried to make flight connections in Canada for a visit with a relative. I could not find anything which would connect. I turned to Preferred Travel Partners and Marissa Newton. Within an hour she presented me with a travel plan to my destination as well as details of the return trip. She worked deliberately, patiently, and successfully. Next time, I will start with “Preferred Travel Partners.”

What a wonderful experience! Merissa definitely understands what customer service means! She went above and beyond every step of the way. No matter what time of day I reached out to her she was available. We are so very grateful to her for arranging such an amazing vacation! I will definitely call Merissa for every vacation we want to plan!

Merissa Newton transferred 4 reservations we made on a past cruise over to preferred travel partners and in the process, not only kept the early buy perks we had but added more perks to it. As we are traveling more now, I will be going back to her for all our travel needs. great time on Allure, next is Oasis, unless we do another inbetween.

I reached out to Merissa about a month or two before my honeymoon with no idea of what me and my fiancé wanted do just places we thought about going. I gave her my budget and the type of vibe we were looking to make the best experience. She provided us with the best location in St. Augustine Fl and best room at the resort looking over the ocean. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with when it comes to planning a vacation. I will always keep her in mind when I’m planning any vacation or know someone who needs help planning one! Thank you so much Merissa!

We truly appreciate the expertise Merissa gave our family. We had no experience with cruise vacations, and she walked us through every step, while always making sure we had the best options for our family. Her assistance made all the difference in making this an amazing trip for each of us!

After several weeks of indecisiveness and frustration while trying to plan a trip on my own, I decided to reach out for assistance with a travel agent. I had never used a travel agent before. A friend recommended Merissa at Preferred Travel Partners, and I was so happy I called her! She pulled everything together and even suggested a tour package I never had even heard of, and it ended up being the highlight of our trip to Iceland! She was always easily accessible with any questions I had, and before we left she delivered all of our travel documents and itinerary neatly packaged for us, so all we had to worry about was getting to the airport on time. Many thanks to you Merissa! Looking forward to your help on our next adventure!

It was our first time using a travel agent and I’ve been traveling 20+ years. Merissa found us a great off site resort along with Disney tickets and answered all the silly questions I had.

I owe a HUGE shout out to Merissa Jones Newton of Preferred Travel Partners. Merissa made our family Italy trip happen.She found the right season (off season is cheaper!), the right flights (United was the best and we made it there despite obstacles), the right hotels (perfectly placed within walking distance of everything. And did you SEE our Sorrento views!?!), the right fast trains (although flying from Rome to Naples was an option, seeing the country side by train was the right choice for us), the right drivers (my cover photo was taken by Alfonso, our driver from Naples to Sorrento. He surprised us with scenic stops along the way. PLUS we got to be those people that had someone waiting with a sign that said “Jarboe”), the right travel insurance ( saving us many Euros traveling back to the airport), the right tour suggestions (an amazing all night food tour!), and more. She made sure all of our documents were prepared and easy to follow. I still can’t get over how smooth it was.LISTEN. She took AWAY the scariest parts of scheduling a huge vacation!!! I’m not kidding and I’m not exaggerating. Merissa has a legitimate talent for this and I will not plan another vacation without her help.So now you’re thinking about money. It’s affordable. Truly. The entire trip was created based on our budget and somehow, possibly by magic, she made it work. I drive an 18 year old mustang with VERY expired tags. That may or may not be a joke. If you’re a police officer, it’s totally a joke. I’m far from rich or being well-off. I promise you, you can make your own trip happen.I’m making this post in case anyone wants to share it or spread the word. I’m part of a few FB groups for travel and I posted this on my page too. My Italy pictures are public for the same reasons.I just want people to know that it’s not as hard as you think it is and you can have that 5 star (that’s the top, right? Haha!) Swiss vacation. You can go on a Rick Steve’s back pack journey through parts of Asia. You can have a random family trip to Italy for no real reason at all!! But know that you CAN go without stress, fear or going broke.I sincerely hope you’ll contact Merissa for your travel needs. She’s passionate and loves her job. She doesn’t schedule your vacation and walk away. It’s a true relief to find someone that’s equally invested in my family vacation as I am.

Excellent service in planning a dream vacation Cruising Alaska. Traveling in 2020, but the service so far has exceeded expectation. A+
