Totem Travel's Martindell Named Top Fiji Matai Specialist

Owner and President Linda Martindell of Totem Travel in Seattle was named the winner of the inaugural Top Fiji Matai Specialist award at the 2009 Matai Convention that took place in November at the Intercontinental Fiji Golf Resort and Spa. Totem Travel specializes in honeymoons and all inclusive vacations and my personal specialties include Fiji, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand and Sandals Resorts. As the winner, Martindell is the recipient of the Fiji Matai of the Year Trophy, and has earned a place as a premium partner with Tourism Fiji in the U.S. market.

"Up-to-date personal knowledge has helped me develop a business plan," said Martindell. "As an example, after the most recent conference, I decided to expand our advertising and marketing to include Fiji family vacations as well as honeymoons. This was a direct result of visiting several resorts in Fiji which offer great family vacation alternatives at a cost comparable to Hawaii or the Caribbean. It was a thrill to be named Tourism Fiji's top travel agent and, with their continued support, I fully expect to double my Fiji business in 2010. I look forward to another fabulous year selling the South Pacific islands." For more information, visit www.tourismfijiUS.com or www.totemtravel.com.
