My Recent Trips

I just retuned from trip visiting some of the newest Sandals properties.  Deep within the idyllic waters of the Exumas, the brand new Sandals Emerald Bay is breathtaking!  Secluded within 500 tropical acres along a pristine, mile-long beach, civilized pleasure coexist with exotic adventures, from three impressive pools —including a half-acre, zero-entry pool with dramatic fire pit in the middle — to five exceptional restaurants. Play championship golf on a Greg Norman-designed course, voted one of the Caribbean's Best by Travel & Leisure Golf. Relax in the first-ever 29,000 sq. ft. Red Lane® Dermalogica concept spa. Explore impossibly beautiful turquoise waters renowned for their boating, fishing and diving. A unique blend of seclusion and sophistication, this exotic private escape is so easy to get to, so close to home. 

The Sandals Royal Bahamian in Nassau provides a sanctuary so alluring the Duke and Duchess of Windsor made it their epicenter for high society as the famed Balmoral Club of the 1940s. Today, transformed into the Sandals Royal Bahamian, it remains an oasis of European grandeur where guests are still treated as royals. Voted “Top Spa Resort” by readers of Conde Nast Traveler, Sandals Royal Bahamian is considered to be the Caribbean’s most elegant resort. Seductive alabaster sand beaches and crystalline waters embrace tropical gardens and opulent suites—some the size of private villas—complete with every imaginable amenity, even your own butler.  

Beaches Turks & Caicos is a one-of-a-kind, unbelievably exciting all inclusive family vacation destination.  A 45,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art waterpark; three magnificent villages, boasting the architecture and ambiance of Italy, France and the Caribbean; incredibly sumptuous hotel accommodations; a powder-white-sand, 12-mile beach lapped by clear turquoise waters; endless fun activities for everyone, from tots to tweens and teens, featuring Sesame Street® characters, the new Xbox 360® Game Garage and a sizzlin’ teen disco, Liquid at Beaches—all amidst some of the most gorgeous tropical scenery on the planet. 

I recently returned from the El Dorado Resort hotel located in the Riviera Maya, Mexico. It is an amazing resort, and one that everyone should enjoy!  It is a gourmet all inclusive resort, that is for adults only and that means total pampering from the time you check in to the time you have to end your incredible vacation.

The El Dorado is one of Conde Nast Travelers top 100 resorts in the world and has the prestigious AAA 4 diamond award, all of the restaurants are ala cart, and you won't find a buffet at this resort. The resort sets on over one mile of beautiful beaches, and has 5 room categories to choose from to make the most perfect and romantic vacation.

Imagine having a fun day in the sun, taking advantage of all the water sports, then enjoying a relaxing message in the spa and end the perfect day having a candle lit dinner on the beach.

The El Dorado is truly a deluxe intimate resort and I would love to help plan that special vacation!

Sailing on the Disney’s Wonder was a wonderful trip!! What better way to spoil the family than doing it Disney Style.  Separate areas and activities for adults, kids, and teens invite everyone to discover their own kind of fun and relaxation.

On every cruise, legendary Disney service, spectacular dining experiences, and dazzling adventures come together to create the most magical vacation to ever set sail. There is nothing like the magic and wonder of a Disney Cruise Line vacation.  Call me for more personal details of the Disney Cruise experience and let’s plan your next magical vacation today!
