Vacation Season is coming...buyers beware
These people have expanded their practices to Maui opening a new office and still keeping their Destination Paradise storefront in Honolulu. Tourists, please be aware that what sounds too good to be true may be just that. Follow your gut instincts. If you happen to sign a contract with Paradise Blue or Pacific Dreams, please make sure you find out your cancellation rights. Get a fax number and contact number. If worse comes to worse, go back to where the presentation took place and demand your refund. Be sure to jot down names. Don't let these people ruin your vacation.

Destination Paradise aka Paradiseblue.net aka Valued Guests
After having their BBB.org accreditation revoked, Destination Paradise has changed their name and are now operating as Paradise Blue. Their new website is: http://paradise-blue.net/. They offer the same packages as Destination Paradise. On the BBB.org website, it references Valued Guests LLC aka Paradiseblue.net. If you take a closer look, you will find the following:
Business Management
Additional company management personnel include:
Ms. Pearl Helsham - Office Manager
Mr. Matt Campbell - Operations Manager
Harold Lewis, the principal of Valued Guests LLC, is also one of the principals of Destination Paradise. A seperate report can be found for Destination Paradise at http://www.bbb.org/hawaii/business-reviews/travel-clubs/destination-paradise-in-honolulu-hi-53004251.
Shame on these companies as if the recession and fighting terrorists isn't enough! We have to protect ourselves...do your research!
