My wife Lynn and I had so much fun at Pickleball in Paradise last year that we are headed to Jamaica again this year! The pickleball and players were fun and we never went thirsty or hungry. Our private snorkel boat trip to Peter Tosh Reef was a highlight as was our group dinner on the beach. Lynn and I usually don’t do all inclusive because we enjoy cooking and look for deals. It was nice to travel light and to have all our food prepared and drinks made for us. We also could use the paddle boards and kayaks when we wanted.

Thanks for putting this together Barb,

~Pat and Lynn Patterson

Straight Away Travel made going to Sandals even more VIP than it already is. Our agent arranged to have our favorite wine and appetizer brought to our room as soon as we got there. She informed us off all the must visit restaurants and even made sure that we had lobster on the beach one day for lunch. As a free service, there is no question, we will always use her for our trips and have recommenced many others to her. Thank you!

Barb did an absolutely amazing job coordinating our Pickleball in Paradise vacation last year. It was everything we had hoped. She had tons of activities for us but no pressure to do anything. It was fantastic. The pickleball was great and we had lots of fun playing with the pro for sure.

~Carla Chavez

My husband & I are going back to Jamaica for our 2nd Pickleball in Paradise trip in September. Barb Strait takes care of everything! She makes vacationing so easy. We were able to relax knowing everything was taken care of. There are plenty of Pickleball drills & games. Plus, there was still time for all the other resort fun; swimming, snorkeling & eating fantastic chef inspired food. I highly recommend this experience to beginner players to the 5.0 player; there’s room for everyone

~Christina Scott

This was a fantastic experience. We enjoyed learning how to improve our pickleball game from Kyle Yates who was so fun and engaging. We made new friends and the resort was absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend.
