I have worked with Kristin for many years. I use her to book all of my corporate meetings and events. No matter what resort or where in the world we are, she has negotiated some amazing contracts and always makes sure everything is in my best interest.
Kristin is professional, reliable and extremely time efficient. She is truly amazing at what she does.

Kristin is beyond trustworthy and professional. She pays close attention to detail and always confirms what is important to our events.
Countless times I have been praised for our event locations and venue. To be honest, I couldn’t do this without her. I would sincerely recommend Kristin Vines to anyone who needs the best!

She is there every step of the way to ensure a smooth process from site selection to execution of event and even after.
Her expertise in site selection and contract negotiation has been instrumental in our meetings and events success, from our annual large international incentive program down to our smaller domestic regional meetings. I cannot thank her enough for all she does every day and her continued partnership.

Just a quick thank you note to let you know how wonderful our business trip was last month. Your hotel suggestion in San Juan was perfect for our group.
Please know that I appreciate your attention to detail and negotiating skills, as you provided us with a contract which included many additional upgrades. You did an outstanding job with answering all our questions and so quickly too.
On behalf of my attendees, I thank you – not a negative comment was uttered. This is some feat as we know pleasing everyone is unheard of.

I have been a successful meeting planner for almost 30 years and didn’t think I needed the services of a third party in venue selection until I had the opportunity to work with Kristin Vines
With her expert navigation of the negotiation process, true expertise on the hotel side, and thorough understanding of our conference needs, she helped us select venues that keep our annual conference vibrant and growing. Through her efforts, our program has stayed on budget and our delegates received an excellent value and resort experience. Kristin is proactive and provides creative ideas for our program.
In addition, she is a true advocate for her client. She’s with you from siting to contracting and throughout the actual event. Kristin also has an amazing network within the hotel industry and is a true insider. She is my “go-to” person for venues and I owe much of our program success to her efforts.

Kristin has always provided my company with the best service possible, despite the fact we are one of her smallest clients.
It is a pleasure working with Kristin – she is full of good ideas and follows through with them to our utmost advantage.

I have worked with Kristin on site selection and contracting for over 5 years. During this time, we have worked on events ranging from 10ppl – 1100ppl and she handles each piece of business as if it is her most important.
While technically she is a 3rd party contractor for our association, I truly feel we are on a team! She is constantly striving to better understand the inner workings of the association to best assist us with our future events. She often engages with our attendees while on-site to try to get a better picture of the people we serve and what their needs are.
Kristin has been a huge resource for me as we have navigated from exclusively working with hotels to utilizing larger convention centers. While I have been in the hospitality industry for over 20 years, I have learned a great deal from Kristin and consider her a mentor and truly value our relationship.
