All-Inclusive Vacation property travel reviews
Recently my children and I went to Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun, and to say it was an ‘amazing trip’ is greatly understated. You could call this trip a group vacation or reunion, and in that definition: ‘simply a fabulous location to come together and celebrate’. You see, myself and my kids have friends on the…
Sneak peek at the grand opening of Woodward Riviera Maya, an indoor action sports center at the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya resort – Action sports meets all-inclusive!

My family and I had the upmost pleasure of attending the Grand Opening of Nickelodeon Resort Punta Cana, located on the beautiful Uvero Alto Beach in the Dominican Republic. The location itself had special meaning. Being a new resort, I know many are seeking reviews and information, in order to plan their upcoming all-inclusive stay. First, here…
While in Turks and Caicos recently, I first stayed at the Blue Haven Resort, then had the pleasure of also staying at its sister resort, Alexandra. While Blue Haven is located on the marina, the Alexandra Resort, even though just minutes away by car – is right on the famous Grace Bay Beach. Grace Bay Beach in…
Recently I had the upmost pleasure of once again returning to an island which never ceases to amaze me, Providenciales Turks and Caicos. This time I stayed in the luxury boutique Blue Haven Resort, which is on new {and beautiful} marina and just minutes from the islands airport. ‘Luxury’ would be the key word when describing Blue Haven,…
It was my last day at the RIU Playacar Resort, and I was spending time playing in the beautiful Mayan Riviera waves. My own jumps and laughter were interrupted by an elderly lady behind me repeatedly screaming a “WOO!” with each wave that came upon her. I turned to see the biggest smile imaginable, a…
When thinking of our time spent at Velas Vallarta in Puerto Vallarta Mexico, this phrase comes to mind: Happy Kids, Happy Vacation It’s true, we as a family had the best time, kids and adults included. This all-inclusive resort just a short drive from both the airport and Puerto Vallarta, really does cater to all….
When travelling, we always make a point to venture off the hotel or resort, explore the area, and talk with locals. It’s our way of fully soaking in the experience and getting to know the destination and the people – to the fullest. While taking in in Nayarit Mexico for the first time recently, we met…
Truth: we aren’t strangers {not even ‘just friends’} to all-inclusive resorts. They are our go-to when it comes to hot-spot travel. Now don’t get me wrong, I love to get off the resort in each and every destination, and live + explore + experience beyond those pretty steel gates. Yet there’s comfort in the packaged…
Right on beautiful Grace Bay in Providenciales is Beaches Turks and Caicos, a 614-room resort separated into 4 different villages: the Caribbean, French, Key West and the Italian Village. Each one is designed to reflect the style of its regions. During our stay at Beaches Turks and Caicos earlier this month, we stayed in the beautiful 6…

No matter which resort or destination you go, one of the first questions that people ask is, “How’s the food?”. The dining available at any resort is key, am I right? It’s one of the constants that people looks for when booking their vacation. When my daughter and I returned from Beaches Negril, I spent…

You’ll want to ensure that you choose a resort with a beautiful and spacious beach. Maybe you love the pool-life during your vacation Ensure your destination has pools that are large enough to offer…
If someone asked me, ‘where do you want to be in 5 years?‘, I immediately think of destinations and eagerly rattle on about my travel bucket list. It’s not the answer most expect, yet it’s evidence of just how much traveling means to me. It’s in my heart and soul and will forever be a…
I put down my book to hear the soft music of ‘What a Wonderful World‘ playing in the Cucina Romana beach restaurant, just a few steps away from my lounge chair. A sudden tropical rain, which the Jamaicans call ‘Liquid Sunshine’, had just blown through the area. This is the reason why my attention…
When coming home from press trips, I’m often asked by friends and family, if the treatment I received was the ‘norm’. It’s easy to say that as press we are given the ‘royal treatment’ because of who we are and what we are there for. It’s only a given that companies and resorts want…
Seven years can change so much, sometimes more than you’d expect. During our 2-week stay in the Mayan Riviera, we had also booked a 7 day stay at a resort which Hubby and I had been to seven years ago. At that time, we loved it. That’s without saying, since we wouldn’t have planned a repeat…
