My Background
I had an interest and passion for travel and wanted to help people plan memorable vacations in highschool and after 25 years I still have that same passion. It is so rewarding to me when clients come back from their trips and tell me all about their amazing vacation as well as referring others to me. After extensive travelling in the Caribbean and Mexico, I can help others with great knowledge of several destinations. My personal favorite destination is Jamaica as the local hospitality is very warm and with me being the people person I am, that truly is most important to me. I am a certified specialist with Sandals/Beaches Resorts, Couples Resorts, Karisma Resorts, AM Resorts, Playa Resorts, Riu Resorts, Blue Diamond Resorts, and also specialize in planning honeymoons/destination weddings anywhere. Family vacations are also a favorite of mine. However, I can plan any kind of trip your heart desires, even if I haven't been there, I have many years of knowledgable classes which help me assist my clients.

We have used kim staker for all of our travels in the past 10 years and always have a great vacation. She has always been correct about the resorts we've been to and we always have great travel /accommodations. It's great to be able to go through the same travel agent throughout the years, and this year we had friends also go through her and we got to meet up with them at the airport even!!! So great! What a wonderful resort this past trip was also. Can't wait til our next trip!!!

I would highly recommend Kim Staker. I called several times changing my mind about what we were looking for in a destination. She was so helpful in our determining the place we wanted to vacation. She went out of her way to call people she knew who had been at resorts we were looking at to get their opinion. Every time I felt like I was bothering here she put my mind at ease telling me it was no problem and that was her job. I can't wait to plan my next trip with Kim!

Kim helped me explore options for my honeymoon. She was great at helping me find the right place for my wife and I. She did not push any option over another, but helped me weight all the options out there. She was sensitive to my budget and helped explore ways to get everything I wanted in the trip.

We enjoyed our trip very much, weather was perfect. I would highly recommend the Rocky Mountainneer train ride to our friends. The tours we did were great, very knowledgeable tour guides. We learned a lot about Vancouver, Banff, Lake Louise, and Calgary. We even got to see a grizzly bear!!!. Our only disappointment was in Calgary. We did not use our voucher for the Calgary Tower. We walked to the Tower the aft. we arrived. The Tower was closed at 3:30 PM that aft. That was the 18th & we left Calgary the 19th. The gentleman said we could get a refund from Rocky Mountainneer, so he wrote a note on our voucher, dated and signed it for proof that the tower was closed. When we returned home, I contacted Rocky Mountainner customer service and was told those vouchers were free, included in our package, we did not pay for them. She said we should have been told that when we booked the trip. The tower cost $18.95 per person. I find it hard to believe we didn't pay for those tickets/vouchers.

Kim went above and beyond to help me with a dream trip for my son and his wife. Our son had a life long dream to go to Ireland and we were able to give him this dream vacation. He was in Ireland on St Patrick's Day and his birthday (March 18th). Every stop was what he would have picked for himself. They thoroughly enjoyed their trip. The main comment by both my son and daughter in law. All we had to do was get up in the morning, have our baggage downstairs in the morning and get on the bus on time. We didn't have to worry about transportation, directions or itinerary. The driver and tour guide were both very helpful, professional and made every effort to help their customers enjoy a lifetime of memories. Thank you one and all for an outstanding effort. Kim, put this trip together for me one full year in advance of the departure date because of the difficulty my son encounters with trying to get vacation time when he wants it. His employer has a lottery type of vacation.

Amazing Experiene
By: Sarah
Reviewed on: 23 Aug 2015
Loved the fact it was an all inclusive resort. You didn't have to worry about taking money down from room to buy drinks, food, or entertainment. For the most part, we kept our wallets locked in our room safe. Our room had a great view of the ocean and the beach which viewed amazing sunrises & sunsets. Everything was in close walking distance around the resort and you were able to slow down to take it all in. The Delta Vacations rep from what I understood, traveled between the different resorts which resulted in a very short time span for the rep to be available. That was a downfall b/c you did not know when they were going to be there. The trip overall was great and I really liked how everything was all laid out in advanced. Definitely would do another all inclusive vacation. Thank you for all your assistance, Kim. V/r Blake and Sarah Latham

I went through a travel agent to make my destination wedding planning as easy and simple as possible. We ended up getting that and much, MUCH more. Her advice and tidbits about traveling with a dress, the locals, weather and services were all accurate. She went above and beyond what she needed to do in order to calm my nerves and help my other guests. I cannot imagine having to deal with all those different personalities (including mine) to make us all feel comfortable about traveling internationally...but she did. We have referred her to many friends already and will continue to do so in the future.

Anniversary Trip to Maui
By: Darwindo
Reviewed on: 25 Oct 2015
This was a 10th anniversay trip to Maui. Kim's reccomendation of Mahana Condo's at Kaa'napali was excellant. There were a couple of small hiccups when we first arrived, but they were instantly attended to and the stay there was superb. Beautiful scenery, great facilities and a convient location make it a great choice. She made some activity suggestions, which we reveiwed and selected. Those excursions were all highly rated, and proved to be worth the time and effort to enjoy. We did go on a dinner cruise in Lahina, the Princess Cruise, that due to weather and poor crew preparation was something I can not reccomend. (this is one activity we selected on our own without input from Kim). The transportation from American Airlines was perfect. Flights were smooth and on time. On board service in First Class was all I ever expected or wanted. The itineraty was well prepared, clear and concise. Kim checked on us shortly after we arrived, and even sent a bottle of wine to our room. Very Happy!!

We talked to multiple couples that had been to many other resorts throughout Jamaica and all over the Caribbean, and they actually said that Couples Swept Away was their favorite because of the inclusions, the beach, and the food. The food was incredible (which we already knew)! Lastly, the staff was incredible!

This was an excellent trip with great ports of call. RC has perfected the embarkation and De-embarkation system greatly. It was very easy to experience both. The RC sponsored shore excursions were well organized and the local guides were very knowledgeable. The Brilliance of the Seas was well maintained. The food the first two nights of the cruise was not up to expectation, but improved there after. The liquor package is overpriced in my opinion. The RC staff is professional and knowledgeable.

Great Trip
By: Jim
Reviewed on: 22 Dec 2017
Great-Kim helped us plan our trip and we were very satisfied. From the beginning to making suggestions of where to go and what to do and expect. We were not disappointed. She helped us greatly when our
flight was cancelled. She went the extra mile to get us rescheduled.
Our trip was everything we thought it would be and more. We were really glad we took her advice and booked the butler suite and Club Mobay.
If we take another trip we will certainly contact Kim.

10th Anniversary Trip
By: Peter
Reviewed on: 25 Jan 2018
This was our first time working with Kim, and our first "all inclusive" trip. Kim listened to our desires for the trip, asked some good questions, and eventually helped us to settle on a trip to Sandals in Grenada. Kim walked us through our options for accommodations at Sandals to make sure the place and level of service would meet our expectations. The trip was awesome, and Kim provided several helpful tips so that we could get the most of our experience.
The only wrinkle we had was a misunderstanding regarding whether massages were included in the package we purchased. Both my wife and I were convinced that Kim said that they were, but there must have been some misunderstanding on her part regarding our question. Sandals does not offer any package like that.
Aside from that relatively minor issue, we enjoyed the experience of working with Kim, and would consider utilizing her again for our future travel needs.
