Letters from Clients:  See more @ http://www.yourvacationdreams.us/Client_Letters.html

For all who are considering renting from Mark,                                                7 July 2007

I have the utmost respect and awe for Mark Austin.  Without knowing me, he went out of his way to help me.  

We rented a 5-bedroom unit at Lifestyle Hacienda, Dominican Republic, from a “gentleman” in England that we found on
eBay.  Our 14-person vacation went bad: 5 days before we were due to leave, the renter asked us to pay him double the
amount of the rental fee, or he would cancel our reservation.  This was because he was unable to provide us with a 5
bedroom he had promised.  Instead would have us stay in two 3-bedroom units.  Initially, he thought this would be no
problem, but unbeknownst to him (so he said), the resort would charge him double his fee, so he would have to pass that fee
along to us.  Our hearts sank.  We could not afford another two thousand dollars.  

Desperate, I looked on eBay to try and find someone who had other villa rentals at the same resort.   I found Mark.  
Immediately, I phoned him, asked him if he might have a villa for rent during the weeks we were to stay.  After explaining the
entire issue to him, he advised me to sit tight, he’d see what he could do.  Immediately, he directly phoned the resort and
spoke to a salesperson.  He straightened out our mess with no compensation and without having set eyes on me!!!!

Mark is a shining example of “pay it forward”.  For no personal gain, he helped someone he did not know.  Unfortunately, that
is rare in today’s individualistic society.  I do believe strongly that you will enjoy your relationship with Mark, as he has
definitively shown to be a man of character.

Sincerely,

Becky F
