Specializing in Premium Caribbean Vacations
One of my favorite destinations... Turks & Caicos.
Many thanks for visiting my profile, read on to see if we'd be a great match.
1996
I have always had a passion to travel, to see and experience the new and the different. I traveled internationally for the first time in 1996 on a school trip to Mexico. Since that time, my personal, educational, and professional journeys have taken me as far west as Guam, as far east as the former Soviet Union, and as far south as Venezuela.
2016
20 years later, after a carefully orchestrated and incredibly successful trip with friends, Maidstone Travel was born. I decided then to professionally come along side others, building great vacations one by one, adding measurable value to every client’s trip.
TODAY
My clients, both couples and families, can be found in the warm Caribbean waters almost weekly, at incredible destinations from the Exumas to Castries to Mayakoba. My supplier list has expanded exponentially, allowing me to offer a near endless number of custom crafted itineraries to exceed your vision, rather you prefer resorts or sailing from port to port. Most important, the process I use, from “Hello” to “We want to go back”, has been proven to deliver the very best vacations. Don’t take my word for it, see my reviews here.
So what are you waiting for? Let’s connect today and get started on your next incredible vacation.

Matt was extremely helpful coordinating and planning an excellent vacation. After I booked my vacation, my mother decided she changed her mnd and would like to go as well. On a Saturday afternoon, Matt took time away from his family to get mom's vacation booked in aligned with my family's plans. Subsequently, he took the time to help understand the requirements of scuba certification and helped coordinate those plans. Overall, A++

This is the second trip we've booked with Matt and he again exceeded all expectations. He was patient and informative as we sorted out all of our options. The resort we booked moved their opening date to our arrival date so we ended up having a few issues with the resort when we first arrived. I sent one email to Matt letting him know about our issues and within a few hours he had moved mountains to make sure we were taken care of. The rest of our trip was fantastic and was exactly what we expected. I can't stress enough how important it is to use a good travel agent, and Matt is a GREAT travel agent.

We had a rough idea of what we wanted to do for our Honeymoon, and Matt really helped us hone in on the best way to get it done. It is also worth mentioning that he had just as valuable insight on what locations or choices we should likely avoid in the planning process.

I reached out to Matt to find a family friendly Caribbean vacation for my family. We have a 2 year old and a 4 year old and were looking to escape the northern winter as an early Christmas present. Matt did a quick phone call to get all the information and immediately had some ideas on what would be convenient for our family. Hey even though about travel time to and from the airport which I would never have considered! He sent us several options in our budget with different room options to choose from. Once we selected our resort Matt was a BIG HELP with getting all the documentations needed to travel during a pandemic. This was a big stressor, however when it came down to it Matt gave us everything we needed to do, sent us information on testing, travel insurance, etc. and put my mind at ease. He also sent us an email prior to our department with some things to do at the resort which were all excellent. We would definitely use him in the future and had an amazing time!

Easy and relaxing trip to the beach
Reviewed By CCH - Arlington, VA | Traveled to Puerto Rico ~ Caribbean
Matt created a great vacation and made it very easy for us. We started off with a call where we told Matt our very few ideas and requirements. From that he came up with a few options. We chose to stay in a hotel that was everything we wanted but would never have found, and in the perfect location. We enjoyed everything we asked for and got to discover a little more. Matt understands how to handle all of the little details to make a trip relaxing and peaceful, while ensuring you have access to the activities you want. This was not an all-inclusive package, but all of the transportation and housing details were covered and explained so we were able to simply not worry about anything.

The Best of Everything!
Reviewed By Cyrus - Mount Pleasant | Traveled to Barbados ~ Caribbean
When my wife and I decided to take our first Caribbean vacation, we didn't know exactly what we were looking for. We met with Matt and he narrowed it down to 3 options that would have everything on our wish list. His trip planner portal made it easy for us to navigate all the different options and amenities. With his recommendation, we decided on Sandals Barbados! This resort had clear blue warm waters, 18 different dining options, swim up bars and a VERY attentive staff.
We are so thankful to have Matt help us navigate and organize this trip from beginning to end. Matt was attentive and always available to help answer questions and point us in the right direction. I would absolutely recommend Matt and Maidstone Travel for any and all future vacations.
Thanks for the trip of a lifetime!

Amazing Family Christmas Vacation
Reviewed By Cruisin thru Christmas - Kenbridge, Virginia | Traveled to Caribbean
Matt Walker was a tremendous help in finding the perfect Holiday vacation for my family of five. This was a first for our family to travel all together outside the US and a first to travel during the Holidays. Matt offered me options to choose between that would provide us a great vacation. We ended up choosing a Christmas Cruise where Matt found a better value for balcony cabins then travel for New Years for a lesser cabin. Travel during Christmas and New Years is both busy and expensive but Matt knew we were limited to this time period and worked with us to find a great vacation within our budget. He continued to provide us useful information leading up to our trip which helped everything go very smooth. I really appreciated that level of service and concern to give us a vacation that we will always remember!

Amazing Anniversary Trip!
Reviewed By Rachel - Charleston | Traveled to Montego Bay ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Matt did a great job of giving us good options for our trip and in a timely manner. He was very accessible and it was easy to get questions answered. It made it so easy to let him handle comparing resorts, airfare, etc. instead of spending countless hours/ days online. We had an amazing trip and our room even got upgraded to the Presidential Suite! It was such a wonderful experience- Thanks Matt!

Unbelievable Japan Ski Trip
Reviewed By Josh - Charleston, South Carolina | Traveled to Japan ~ East and Southeast Asia
Matt was great in arranging our Japan ski vacation. Having never been to this particular resort before, Matt was great in researching the various options and arranging all of the intricate details. Those details started from the moment the flight landed, included great guiding services, and unbelievable dinner reservations as well! Would definitely work with Matt again, and looking forward to the next trip!

Excellent Family Vacation
Reviewed By Steve - Isle of Palms, SC | Traveled to St. Thomas ~ Virgin Islands ~ Caribbean
Matt was fantastic! I asked Matt to give me some options for a "Family" vacation with sun and clear water. He provided several options varying in location and price. Ultimately we selected the Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas and I am very pleased with our decision. The Ritz-Carlton St Thomas was a great family vacation with excellent accommodations, private beach, inclusive water sports and a variety of dinning options. Matt planned our entire trip including airlines, ground transport, lodging, etc. He even followed back up with airlines after they reduced a charge and we received a refund! Matt followed through before, during, and after our family vacation. I couldn't be more pleased with his extensive knowledge, commitment to professionalism, and diligence in the details. I would highly recommend Matt and Maidstone Travel for planning your next adventure.
