I just got back from Sosua in the Dominican Republic... Anne helped us pick the perfect location, and found a resort that suited our needs. She was there every step along the way, answering questions, giving us tips...I did not have to worry about a thing. I would most definitely recommend Anne as a travel agent, she did an amazing job with our trip!

Anne was great from the moment we decided to think about our destination. She provided great ideas, and helped us with our planning. She looked at our budget and her suggestions were loaded with places to see. She was always available when I emailed her and responded quickly. I have already recommended her to many of my friends, and we are going to get together with her to plan the next one. She is amazing!!!

What an awesome trip to Italy and Greece… thanks to the fabulous assistance from Anne who booked our cruise to the Greek Isles for our 25th wedding anniversary and it was exceptional!!! Anne anticipated our every need when planning and we couldn’t have asked for anything more! When our luggage got stolen on route, Anne was a call away to assist us and we didn’t have to worry about a thing; it was all taken care of. Thank you Anne for everything! You went above and beyond and it was truly appreciated. We've already started planning our next trip using Anne as our Travel Advisor.

Anne - we love your smaller group size. So much more intimate and gives us time to get to know people and places in more depth. You are awesome! We are always amazed by how you keep these groups going so well and make them so attractive every year!

I have had a rich life building the bridges between real estate investors and developers on a global basis and I can honestly say that my job would have been so much easier if I had known Anne Brobyn and Hibiscus International many years earlier. I am looking forward to next year’s cruise!

Anne, I want to thank you for all your help booking our fabulous cruise. The scooter you arranged for me was waiting in my stateroom when I arrived. It was a lifesaver and allowed me to have fun with my family. Sending you a BIG thanks!
Andrea & Family
Anne Brobyn is our travel advisor. She has planned many trips for us including a river cruise anniversary celebration and a mother/daughter getaway to Italy. My daughter, Lynne uses her all the time for her global real estate travel. Anne is very professional and always plans a fantastic trip! We tell everyone to use her services!
Anne, Jim & Lynne
What a delight to have Anne organize our annual vacation south! There's nothing quite like arriving at the most beautiful beach-front suite with a note from Anne buried amongst a local fruit basket. The excellence of our trip was in no small part due to Anne's diligence and attention to detail. She listened to our needs and past experiences, and created something perfectly suited for us that we will never forget. We can't wait to have Anne work on our next getaway. Thank you so much!
Trevor & Anita
We have never actually used a travel advisor before, but could not be more thankful that we did this time! So grateful for you and the peace you provide!!
Brooke & Shane
