STS Acquisitions LLC and STS Treavel and Sea to Ski travel are one and the same -selling Tradewinds Vacations memberships in Las Vegas and probably other cities. Travel club membership is a scam. STS owners name is Stephen Wunder who used to own M&H Acquisitions but closed it due to problems and complaints with advertising/sales issues and problems with product and services.

Now operating as americantravelplanners.com in Laguna hills, ca. This can be confirmed by going to www.register.com and accessing the "Whois" file for americantravelplanners.com. The site was registered in October of 2012 by none other than scam artist Andrew Wunder and ski to sea vacations lLLC

My wife and I attended a sales presentation at Sea to Ski Acquisitions with the promise of a “Complimentary 8 Day/7- Night Cruise for 2” simply for attending the presentation. I called twice ahead of time to try to understand all of the details, because this seemed too good to be true. After speaking with two different representatives I had received positive responses regarding all of the possible loopholes that I could think of. I was convinced that we would be awarded as promised for our time and attention. The one loophole I had not considered was outright lying. My wife and I hired a babysitter to attend the presentation and met all of the obligations required on our end. At the end of the presentation, we were given a “certificate” for a cruise, but the fine print proved that this cruise would be far from “complimentary”. There were multiple hidden charges, the worst of which was “$55 per person per day based on double occupancy”. So this “complimentary” cruise for two will cost you $110 per day; and I won’t even bother going into details about the absurd registration, processing, and booking fees that go above and beyond the $110 per day. I called Andy Wunder, STS Acquisitions owner, who was extremely rude when I calmly requested that my wife and I be given what was promised in return for fulfilling our end of the bargain. He claimed that the advertising company (Perfect Marketing) was at fault, but in the same conversation admitted that he hired them, which makes him ultimately responsible. He was immediately short with me and very defensive from the start; at no point actually attempting to understand the wrongdoing that he had done. I have, in writing, what was promised and he was unwilling to take responsibility for the false promises. Fortunately, my only loss in all of this was my evening, the cost of a babysitter, and serious frustration. If STS Acquisitions is not able to follow through with promises on a simple sales pitch, I would hate for them to be involved in my vacation planning and the handling of thousands of dollars of mine. As evidenced by the many complaints on here and the BBB, they treat their high-paying customers the same as they treated me; which is with lies and disrespect. Please do me and yourself a favor and don’t make the same mistake (or worse) that my wife and I made. Steer clear of STS Acquisitions and anything they have to offer.

Sea to Ski Vacations and Sea to Ski Travel are not the same company. Sea to Ski Vacations is located in Colorado. Another thing I would like to clear up is how our vacation club packages are sold. We use Independent Distributors to sell for us around the U.S. Unfortunately, some Distributors do not always follow our rules when selling. When this happens Sea to Ski Vacations wants to know. Because the fact is, your complaint is likely with the Distributor, not Sea to Ski Vacations. Sea to Ski Vacations stands by their contract and the vacation club you are purchasing. If you purchased a membership and feel like you were misled then we want to talk to you. Please contact us at customercare@seatoskivacations.com.
