Meeting Planner Testimonials

"Newport Beach seems to have all the good California stuff - weather, scenery, atmosphere, laid-back attitude, etc. - but without all the negative stuff you hear about - congestion, pollution, etc. - in other locations. I'm convinced that Newport Beach is one of the best-kept secrets in terms of destinations. Most of our attendees had never been and had no idea what to expect. They all left as ambassadors for the paradise you call home. I'm a huge fan myself, as you well know. We will be back - no question! If you ever need to use me as a reference to other meeting planners, go right ahead. Newport Beach is on my very short list of "sure-fire success" sites." - The Realty Alliance

"It is with great pleasure that I as a 6 year veteran of ConferenceDirect and 20 years in the hospitality industry, recommend a wonderful destination for meeting planners - that of Newport Beach. I have personally planned several events in the Newport Beach area and my clients continue to rave about their experiences and the quality of the properties and the service offered by Visit Newport Beach Inc., which makes my life that much easier on the logistics planning." - ConferenceDirect

"Just a short note of thanks for the wonderful stay you arranged for my husband and me at the Fairmont Hotel. The property is exquisite! Saturday we spent the day poking around Balboa Island and then watched the lighted yacht parade. Sunday we wrapped up the weekend with breakfast at the Beachcomber. Fun place and a rare find; thank so much for the recommendation. And the best part of it... it was located at "Crystal Cove". Of course, I had to take a picture of myself and the "Crystal Cove sign"." - California State Department of Justice
