Planning an overseas trip for 20+ family members is no easy task—but thanks to Sheba Matthews, our Spence Family Reunion in Jamaica was absolutely flawless from start to finish.

From the very first conversation, Sheba was attentive, knowledgeable, and truly invested in making our reunion unforgettable. She guided me through every step—handling the initial details, securing bookings, managing payments, and keeping me updated on who had reserved. She even arranged transportation for every guest and ensured we had a private dining area for our reunion dinner. She also worked closely with the Riu Ocho Rios to secure a space for our meet-and-greet, which set the tone for the entire trip.

The RUI Ocho Rios exceeded all expectations! The service was exceptional—from our sweet and attentive morning server Janette, to the warm and professional evening supervisor Roxanne, and the rest of the incredible staff who made us feel welcomed and cared for. Every interaction was filled with smiles, kindness, and true Jamaican hospitality.

Sheba’s dedication allowed us to focus on what mattered most—spending quality time together. She checked in regularly, made sure every detail was handled, and went above and beyond to ensure every family member had a wonderful experience.

We were in Jamaica for nine unforgettable days, and every moment was filled with love, laughter, and memories we’ll cherish forever. We were truly spoiled by both Sheba’s service and the Riu Ocho Rios team.

Sheba, thank you for making our first family reunion such a success. We can’t wait to work with you again to plan our next adventure!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Traveling to Usha Village with Sheba was nothing short of transformative. From the moment I signed up for the trip, I could tell this experience would be rooted in intention, community, and deep healing. Sheba’s organization, communication, and care for each traveler made the entire process seamless—from pre-trip checklists to airport pickups to daily guidance once we arrived in Honduras.

Usha Village itself is sacred ground—beautiful, peaceful, and deeply nourishing to the soul. But what made it even more powerful was experiencing it with the community Sheba cultivated. Our group was filled with like-minded, supportive, and spiritually curious individuals, and Sheba held space for us to connect with each other and ourselves in profound ways.

Each day was a thoughtful blend of rest, detox, reflection, and spiritual connection. From the herbal steams and electric baths to the alkaline meals and evening discussions, every part of this journey was intentional. Sheba also arranged for us to have cultural experiences outside the village that gave a fuller picture of the beauty and resilience of the local people.

What really stood out was Sheba’s leadership. She is grounded, wise, and full of grace—always checking in, offering insights, and reminding us of our purpose. She truly walks in alignment with Dr. Sebi’s legacy and honors the sacredness of Usha Village in everything she does.

I’m feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected to my purpose. If you’ve been feeling called to visit Usha Village, go with Sheba. You’ll be deeply cared for, surrounded by love, and forever transformed.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I had a great experience with Sheba during the Usha Village detox retreat. She is very welcoming and made sure everyone who attended had everything they needed from knocking on doors and conversing about our health. Would give her 10 stars on here if I could.
