In Praise of Portfolio

At Portfolio we receive feedback from our guests every week. The following unsolicited comments have come from Portfolio Guide appreciators around the world and we are proud to share them with you.

 

Dear Madam/Sir

 

We find your Bed and Breakfast Guide as well as the Safari Collection and the Retreat Collection extremely useful when planning holidays or week-ends away for ourselves, but mostly for our plenty of overseas visitors. This means I have given all of them away to friends who booked their holidays only based on your books. And now I am without.

Could you KINDLY send me the last versions of these 3 guides.

Thank you VERY much in advance.

 

Kind regards,

Sabine Preschern-Unger

Hello to all at Portfolio,

 

I have today updated my Portfolio registration details, and reordered copies of the Portfolio using the online form.

 

However, I felt that I wanted to make one or two comments regarding the service my Wife and I received from your organisation.  We have since 2000 enjoyed three eight week holidays in Southern Africa - South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia.

 

We made all our own arrangements and as such relied quite a lot on your collection, especially in S.A.  I cannot recall in how many places we stayed, as we were travelling quite extensively - lots!  What I can say is that we were never once disappointed, the standards, service and friendliness at all the many places was virtually faultless.  The majority of those places we found through your collection, a fact for which we would like to thank you.

 

We are hoping to visit S.A. again in September/October 2009, and will be depending on the Collection once more,

 

Kindest regards,

Paul and Brenda Douthwaite,

This email, written on my fist day back home in Italy after my one- month stay in South Africa, is mainly devoted to thank and to congratulate with the Portfolio system, which we have used for organizing all our stay in South Africa, from Cape Town up to the Kruger.

I was told that this system worked well, but could never imagine how well it works! It''s perfect, exhaustive, fast, and most important, Portfolio is reliable.

We only had good surprises and met wonderful hosts in all the B&B where we have been. I would recommend Portfolio to all my best friends travelling to SA; it has been a powerful tool for us.

 

Hope to be back in SA again and soon!

 

Best regards from Italy,

We were very pleased to have used your service along the Garden Route last year. Excellent accommodation and are now recommending (Portfolio) to our relatives who will be booking next year - as will we.

The Portfolio Collection: B+B to Luxury is one reason for us to return to RSA regularly.

This November it''s going to be the 15th time

I travel to South Africa every year and have done so since 1974 and I find your three guides extremely helpful, useful and invaluable. Thank you for sending them to me over many years. All the accommodation I have stayed at throughout South Africa has been to a very high standard and the hospitality shown by the owners has been excellent and is appreciated.

 

Please continue to send the three guides to me and thank all your staff for their treasured and valuable assistance.

 

You are doing a grand job and I thank you.

 

Best Regards

I find your booklets really helpful when travelling and always keep a copy in the car!

Thanks to these people and the countless others who inspire us to keep doing what we do - finding and benchmarking the very best South Africa accommodation so that you can travel knowing there will only be good surprises on the way.

 

Got something to say about your stay?

Please send ALL feedback to info@portfoliocollection.com. We rely on our guests to ensure that our standards are maintained throughout the year and all comments and criticisms are therefore vital and invaluable.
