Paradise Seaplanes wins 2020 Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice

Paradise Seaplanes has announced it has been recognised as a 2020 Travellers’ Choice award-winner for Activities Worldwide.

Based on a full year of Tripadvisor reviews, prior to any changes caused by the pandemic, award winners are known for consistently receiving great traveller feedback, placing them in the top 10 per cent of tourism activity businesses around the globe.

“To be in the top 10 per cent of activities world wide is pretty good for a small family-owned business on the Sunshine Coast, Australia!,” Shawn Kelly, owner of Paradise Seaplanes said.

“To me, the best part of this is that it’s awarded based on feedback from customers, and, as most our business come from locals, it is fantastic to see the local support.”

Mr Kelly said that their passengers range from youngsters to almost-centenarians.

“My husband surprised us with this adventure…” said Rebecca M’s review on Tripadvisor, 20 July, 2020. “My daughter was very anxious and didn’t want to go. With Shawn’s encouraging words we were soon in the air and she couldn’t get enough. She was so glad to have gone. Was an amazing experience! 5 Stars. Thank you Shawn and Paradise Seaplanes”

“Winners of the 2020 Travellers’ Choice Awards should be proud of this distinguished recognition,” Chief Commercial Officer at Tripadvisor, Kanika Soni said.

“Although it’s been a challenging year for travel and hospitality, we want to celebrate our partners’ achievements.

“Award winners are beloved for their exceptional service and quality.

“Not only are these winners well deserving, they are also a great source of inspiration for travellers as the world begins to venture out again.”
