Hi Simona, 

I have reworded your letter below. These are suggestions only, as I have changed things that weren't 'wrong' but I have tried to make it more natural. A few explanations;

1 Dear is used for individuals or groups (no plural

2 You don't really need the 'At first/firstly' but if you do use it (slightly more formal) I would use 'Firstly,' as it is more natural.

3 In english, journey and voyage general refer to the period of actually getting somewhere, not the actual vacation.

4 Definitely more natural to say I like something very much, rather than I liked very much something

5 My journey home/ my return journey, my trip home all work.  my journey to come back doesn't work.

6 There are many ways to sign off a letter or an email depending on the context.  Bye is usually used verbally rather than in a letter. 

Good luck!


Dear Uncle Bob, Aunt Mary, Jack, Chris and Emma,
Firstly, let me thank you very much for your generous hospitality during my holiday/vacation. The two weeks I spent with you were fantastic and  I enjoyed our walk in the park and visit to the heart of the city very much! My journey home went very well and now I am here the weather is sunny.
I hope to see you soon.
Best wishes,
Simona
