Perhaps It’s The Company:

"The places are always beautiful and the activities, room, food, and meetings are always great, in my heart and soul it’s the wonderful people you meet who become lifelong friends! Without question, best thing about SVI are the people. The attendees were full of love, life and sober fun. Everything else; the beach, the food, the entertainment and the meetings/speakers were all secondary. It could have rained all week and I’d have had just as much fun. Once again thank you for the opportunity of spending quality time with wonderful, SOBER, spiritual people. Can’t tell you how much these trips mean to me. I get energized for many months both before and after."

Or Maybe The Atmosphere:

"Its all great.... just so grateful to be part of this experience and you guys have made it better each year. SVI isn't just a vacation, it's a feeling of absolute safety. This was a life changing experience and I was in awe of every second. I even had the thought once or twice wondering why I EVER thought I needed to drink or drug to have fun when I can feel like I felt this week."

The Incredible Gratefulness:

"It was so great…No words for this much gratitude…Rock on… I came back from our week at Club Med Turquoise with my heart full of gratitude and wonderful memories. What a way to celebrate my 30 th year of sobriety! Thanks for a wonderful week – it is now a new bright spot in my year."

Or The Extraordinary Impact:

"These vacations have become one of the many joys of my life!

A trip like this for me has had a huge ripple effect. I was able to recharge from my busy life, meditate daily and completely immerse myself in AA in a beautiful, relaxing setting.

What a great vacation I had; beyond my wildest dreams."
