Let's Start at the
Very Beginning....
Let's Start at the Very Beginning....
It's a very good place to start, Oops, where was I?
In a land, far, far, away, wait no, once upon a time, no still not right, UGH. How to say this, OK, let's tell you about us.
I am April (in the front of the kayak) and I am Lynne (in the rear of the kayak), and we are the owners and founders of Coasters & Castles Travel.
I (April) am a Mom of 2 great, theme park loving kids. I have been Disney obsessed for as long as I can remember so I was bound and determined to find a way to turn that into a career. Thankfully I figured it out, and now I am truly blessed to be doing something I love as work and to be surrounded by so many amazing people.
I (Lynne) am a wife and a Mom to a couple of kitties. After learning about an opportunity to plan Disney trips for a living, I thought, "That is my dream job". The rest is history.
When we first started as travel advisors, we were with an agency with several hundred agents. We did not have a lot of contact with the agency owner. When we decided to open our own agency, we wanted a different business model.
We wanted an organization that was supportive, mentoring, and one in which special relationships would be built with each other. You will always have access to the owners - text, call, email, or message us, we are here to help you! We are your business partner, not your boss.
When creating the agency, we put a strong consideration into the needs and wants of our advisors and the agency.
We are an award-winning agency:
Silver Earmarked by Disney with Disney Destinations
Silver U-Preferred with Universal Parks & Resorts Vacations
President's Award with Travel Leaders Network
Preferred Sandals Agency
Emerald Elite with ALG Vacations
Marriott Preferred Travel Agency
"Whatever we accomplish belongs to our entire group,
a tribute to our combined effort."

Words from some of our Advisors....
Melissa L.
"I joined Coasters & Castles Travel just over 4 years ago. I was looking to become a travel agent specializing in Walt Disney World vacations and a friend re-connected me with her friend who I hadn't seen since college. This is the first and only agency I've ever worked with but I've learned that all agencies are not created equal.
I've gained some lifelong friends, all with a similar love for Disney, movies and travel. We've met each other's families and they've truly changed my life. The owners welcome everyone and treat us like one big happy family.
They've put together a great training program. Showing us hands on what it takes to be an agent and letting us take the lead on what suppliers we'd like to sell. Agents are also paired with a mentor after training is completed to be a point person to bounce ideas off of and ask any questions. It's great as a new agent to have a person to lean on as you learn your way. They've also built up an extensive online library of resources we can use on suppliers, our system and supplier webinars. We also work well together as a team, sharing knowledge and answering questions to help out each other's clients. And if anyone is in need of help there is always someone willing to lend a hand.
I love that there are no strict requirements on what you sell and how much. You make your own goals and run your business as fits your life. I have another full time job and two young boys so this style works well for me. There's no pressure to sell, we just sell what we love and are passionate about. My business has continued to grow each year and I think it has everything to do with how the agency is run and this team!"

"Being a part of Coasters and Castles has changed my life. Finding my passion through helping others is my ideal job. I love getting an inquiry and people are so excited to go to Disney. I'm honored every trip I book that people trust me to plant their trip. Disney is a huge part of my life and I get to share it with others. Seeing the joy on their face when they see the castle is amazing. The true happiness. That's what I love. Seeing peoples true happiness.
I love Coasters and Castles travel because it feels like family. You welcomed me into this company and trained me to be the agent I am today. Selling is only part of it. The true part is the connections you make with people. This has changed my life.
I love what I do and I wouldn't trade it for the world."

As an independent travel advisor with Coasters & Castles Travel, I’m proud to be part of a team that truly puts clients first. What drew me to this agency—and what continues to inspire me every day—is the heart behind what we do. We aren’t just booking trips; we’re helping families, couples, and friends create memories that last a lifetime.
The agency provides incredible support for its advisors, from training and resources to a strong community of travel professionals who are always willing to share knowledge. That allows me to focus on what matters most: giving each client personalized, stress-free service.
One of the things I love most about Coasters & Castles Travel is the variety of vacations we can plan. Whether it’s a magical Disney or Universal getaway, a relaxing cruise, an adventurous European trip, or an all-inclusive beach escape, we have the tools and expertise to make it seamless.
I’m proud to be an independent advisor with Coasters & Castles Travel and to be part of an agency that values professionalism, integrity, and care in everything we do. It’s a privilege to help our clients turn their dream vacations into reality.
