I have used Barefoot Breaks 3 times
and cannot recommend Rosie enough! If you enjoy stays that are a little less generic and way less mainstream, do yourself a favor and look at her website.
I have stayed at Pongwe Beach Hotel, Butiama Beach, Next Paradise and now more recently Sambatra Beach Lodge. Rosie's local knowledge of travel in Africa ensures a seamless transition, her ground handlers are exceptional. Never a hiccup.
Barefoot Breaks is my nr1 travel agency.

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Jaimie from Barefoot Breaks
as we wanted to book a week's holiday in Madagascar. From the first interaction, Jaimie was everything and more I wanted in a travel expert who could guide me and advise me on an island resort in a country we had not traveled to before. Her attention to detail, professionalism, friendliness and kindness were outstanding. The actual resort we went to (Constance Tsarabanjina) turned out to be the best-ever island holiday of our lives. The travel documents were couriered to our house, complete with a hand-written card and gifts for us and it was such a special touch. I had a question about tipping during the holiday and sent Jaimie a WhatsApp about it. She answered straight away and gave us some pointers. So I can HIGHLY recommend this travel company, but especially Jaimie, who went out of her way to answer my numerous questions on various occasions. She really made the whole trip seamless and we loved our stay.

We had yet another incredible experience with Barefoot Breaks and Erna!
This was our fifth trip booked through them, and once again, Erna handled everything flawlessly. Our Zanzibar getaway was absolutely unforgettable - from the smooth planning to the thoughtful recommendations and seamless, professional arrangements. We can't wait to arrange our next adventure with you!
We have booked two holidays with Barefoot Breaks,
in 2021 and 2025. Karen gave incredibly helpful information to help us plan two holidays with different needs - as a couple looking for an action packed holiday in 2021 with lots of scuba diving, to our family oriented holiday in 2025 that needed activities for different activity levels and age groups. Barefoot Breaks help you to curate a holiday tailored to your needs.
When I was looking to book a December break
the only response I had to my enquiries in person was from Jaimie at Barefoot Breaks. She suggested, booked everything and it all worked flawlessly! We were so happy! I even found my flight bookings coming home already checked in when I tried to check in! Wow! If you are looking for service don't look any further. Efficient, so pleasant and helpful - 10 out of 10! Thanks for everything Jaimie we had an amazing holiday!
