GBI came across this company via a… I came across this company via a Facebook Ad. I was reluctant of course, since I had no knowledge of them. As the ad crossed my path at the right time (I needed lodging the next week in Puerto Vallarta), and the deal seemed sweet ($499.00 for a week's lodging), I gave the number a call. Spoke with Jennifer and then did some due diligence and it appeared to be legit. Called Jennifer back and paid for the week's reservation. After paying I was transferred to a very helpful woman named Cindy in the reservations department. She further helped to resolve any remaining doubts I had by giving me her direct line and telling me to call her with any problems. After paying, the account is sent to reservations and you wait a couple of days to receive a voucher number by email which then can be redeemed for the appropriate stay at hotel. Bottom line: I had a week's stay at an upscale hotel in Puerto Vallarta that I would never have been able to afford otherwise. Cindy and Jennifer were very responsive to my needs.

GBBooking was so easy and it was the vacation of my dreams! Booking with carefree destinations was seamless and so easy. I was nervous in booking with them since I really didn’t know If I would have to sit through a presentation or hounded by sales people once I got to my destination. This was not the case at all. I landed, was greeted with tequila shots and shuttled to my hotel. The hotel was incredible and the staff was so professional and attentive. I have traveled the world and I have never received this kind of VIP treatment. This vacation was my favorite of them all. If I could give more than five stars I would. 10/10 recommend! You will not be disappointed.

GBCareful of these Destinations... I am not usually one to leave reviews but I feel obligated to other families that will be traveling and possibly using Carefree destinations to share my experience. We are a family of five, Me and my wife and our 3 kids: 5yr old boy, 3yr old girl, and a 5 months old boy. In March 2023, we decided to plan a much needed vacation to Mexico. I saw an ad on Facebook for 7 nights in Mexico for $599. It sounded very intriguing so I called the advertising company, carefree destinations and spoke to one of their agents and she painted their resorts to with Rosy colors saying that I would have the vacation of a lifetime with Vidanta. I was suspicious about the pricing and asked if it was all inclusive buy she said no and she went on to say that she and her 3 teenage boys ate well for the week for less than $500! I was sold. if she can feed her teenage boys well for less than $500 then surely I could feed my 5 and 3 year old well. We love Mexico for 2 things: Beach and affordable good food. I bought a voucher from her and We decided to go to Vidanta Riviera maya. A few days later, I decided to verify what she told me by looking up the resort and looking at the menus. When I looked at the menus, I was shocked. This is what I suspected. It felt like a tourist trap scam. “Get those foreigners into your difficult to leave resort and charge them whatever you want for everything!” To feed all of us at their cheapest restaurant, would cost at least $100 per meal. What the heck that’s more expensive than in the US! A quesadilla was $13, cheese and Tortilla…freakin’ cheese and tortilla. I decided to call carefree destinations and tell them I would like to cancel the voucher as this was false advertising. The once nice and helpful representative was determined to refuse me cancelling now that I had found out the truth. She said the voucher is “non refundable”. When I referred to the menu and asked her about the measly $500 that she told me she spent and calculated with her that it would be closer to $1400 if we are only at the resort, she quickly said that “I was only sharing my experience and I was not that you will have the same experience”! I was furious and demanded my money back. She refused. I told her, I would ask for a chargeback and she said good luck with that. We have your recording agreeing to a non refundable voucher. I will leave that statement for your judgement to decide if you want to give your money to this company. We could not get our money via charge back from our bank so we decided to go so we would not lose our voucher money for nothing. Sure enough, my suspensions were confirmed. Vidanta was a tourist trap with exorbitant prices, even more expensive than the US and we had to shop for our groceries at the grocery store and make most of our meals or go to restaurants in town so I wouldn't have to get a second job to pay for this trip when we come back! Do business with this company at your risk and do not trust their claims. Verify for yourself before booking a voucher with them. Carefree Destinations lol they should be called Careful of these Destinations!

GBEasy Booking Process, Friendly Service - Most Amazing Resort Stay EVER I found this great deal on facebook and even though I initially thought it was a timeshare, I sent a request for more information. I received a call from Jeniffer who helped me plan this for my family and even offered some upgrades. We chose to stay at the Grand Mayan based on her expertise and suggestion and this was the best vacation we have had in a long time. We did not have to attend a presentation and this saved us so much money on traveling with our 4 kids. Thanks Carefree, we can't wait to do it agein.

GBBest memories made! It was the best experience ever! My daughter and I made great memories and had a blast. The resort was beautiful and well worth every penny. The service and atmosphere was wonderful. I would love to go back and would definitely use carefree destination again for any of my traveling needs.
