The Majestic Mirage Punta Cana

The Majestic Mirage Punta Cana

Our family visited the Majestic Mirage all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic recently. We loved this resort and the staff, so I wanted to share our experiences with you. The Majestic resorts are actually three resorts side-by-side in Punta Cana. There is the Colonial, the Elegance and the Mirage. During our visit, the Colonial resort was not yet opened because of COVID, and the Elegance only opened the day after we arrived. We stayed in the Mirage. These three resorts do not have exchange privileges, which is a bit uncommon among all-inclusive resorts. But each resort has the [...]

An All-Inclusive Resort is the Perfect Vacation for Mom!

You are probably beginning to think about your summer vacation. The kids will be out of school, the weather will be perfect, but where should you go? Many people head to the beach for summer vacation, maybe renting a house or a condo. But this year especially, you may want to consider an all-inclusive vacation. This could be the perfect vacation for everyone in the family, especially mom! This year with COVID has been tough on everyone, but it has been especially tough on moms.

Can’t Cruise Now? Look at an All-inclusive Resort Instead!

Can’t Cruise Now? Look at an All-inclusive Resort Instead!

At least once a week I have a client ask me when cruising is going to resume. I wish I could say they will start tomorrow! Just this week more cruise lines extended their cancellations into the summer. Unfortunately, it will take some time for the CDC and cruise lines to work together to ensure cruising can be done safely. So, where can you go to get the same feeling like a cruise? Maybe an all-inclusive resort is a right substitute! Cruises and resorts aren’t identical, but they do have many aspects in common. First, let’s talk about all [...]

Sandals Montego Bay

Sandals Montego Bay

Sandals Montego Bay was the very first Sandals resort, opening in 1981. This resort is still among the most popular Sandals resorts, and I was fortunate enough to be able to visit it for myself last month. It is just a beautiful resort and should be on everyone’s list to visit. Sandals Montego Bay offers 272 rooms on 26 acres. Just a few years ago, this resort went through a multi-million-dollar renovation including a new lobby and main bar, new swim-up suites, new over-the-water wedding chapel, a new Latitudes overwater bar and three new restaurants! So if you’re thinking [...]

Where Can You Go in the Caribbean Now?

Where Can You Go in the Caribbean Now?

If you’re looking for a luxury all-inclusive vacation, then you’re in luck! Resorts are beginning to open up again. And these resorts are keeping their guests’ health and safety as their top priority. Some of my favorite all-inclusive resorts are Sandals and Beaches resorts. I love these resorts for many reasons, but mainly because almost everything is included in your price. This may include things like golf and scuba diving (for certified divers), wi-fi and transfers to and from the resorts. Sandals and Beaches resorts are also located on some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and [...]

Sandals Negril

Sandals Negril

Sandals Negril is just one of the 6 Sandals resorts in Jamaica. I have been fortunate enough to visit this resort twice, and it’s one of my favorites in Jamaica. This resort is one of the smaller Sandals resorts, and it has a lush, green, cozy feel to it. Sandals Negril is a 12-acre resort with 226 rooms. This resort is located on Jamaica’s famous Seven Mile Beach, and is set amongst lush palm groves, powdery white sand beach and the Caribbean Sea. Negril offers some of the best sunsets in the Caribbean, so this resort is definitely one [...]

There are three Beaches resorts; two in Jamaica and one in the Turks & Caicos.
