Departure & Return Dates
Greetings, Greetings from all of us at Bestbuy Distributors.
As we say goodbye to summer, we start to think about the winter months ahead and our getaway to
Curacao, an Island where it is summer year round and you will always feel at home.
The staff at the beautiful Santa Barbara Beach and Golf Resort are anxiously awaiting our arrival
to share their outstanding property and surroundings for your enjoyment. Practise your golf on
the scenic Old Quarry golf course, pamper yourself at the AtaBei Spa, play under water with a
snorkeling or diving tour, or soak up the sun at the pool or beach. There are also plenty of
opportunities to explore Curacao away from the resort with some shopping, site seeing, casinos and
adventure tours.
Thank you once again for your support and thank you to the Sponsors who have signed up to be
part of this Caribbean adventure.
If you have any questions or concerns related to travel details please feel free to contact Mary Joy
Morgan at GLP Worldwide Expeditions at (905) 258-7778 ext. 241 or by email at
