Beach Wedding Set up in Antigua

I along with my husband (Ed) share a passion for travel and exploring.  We have cruised Princess (Alaska 14-day Land & Sea), Carnival, Celebrity, Virgin Voyages and Royal Caribbean (Mexico & the Caribbean) 8 or 9 times.  We are part of the Jeep community and do cross-country Jeep trips annually exploring the west with rock crawling in Arizona & Moab UT.  Living on the GA/FL line we have visited Universal, Sea World, and Disney with our grandkids.  We love the beach so St Augustine is a regular weekend trip for us.  With an annual week with the grandkids at the beginning of summer.  Our 1st Sandals Resort was South Coast.  We were impressed with the relaxation the all-inclusive Sandal’s brand provided.  Our 2nd resort was Emerald Bay, we fell in love with Exuma so we returned 2 more times.  We have since visited Sandal's Antigua, Negril, Curacao, Grenada, Royal Caribbean (Jamaica), and St. Vincent and the Grenadines twice.  

Since my start in 2021 I have increased my knowledge with Training by several brands including Sandals, Hyatt Inclusive Collection, Royal Caribbean and others.   I have completed a Certification program for Destination Weddings & Honeymoon Specialist.

I have became a certified diver.  I completed my first 50 dives in a year at Sandals Properties at no additional cost because at Sandals Dives are included for certified divers.

I love the whole process of researching, planning, counting down to leave, preparing, and then the not sleeping from pure excitement, to the morning of leaving.  My desire and goals for entering the travel industry are to share this excitement from planning to enjoying the beauty and relaxation of the Sandal’s All-inclusive experience.

Secrets Playa Mujeres
Venus took care of all the details. There was great communication, and she was always available anytime we had questions. We had a great trip with two other couples. She even had custom cups made for all six of us! We are excited to plan our daughter's destination wedding next year with her as well. I highly recommend booking any trip with her.

RIU Negril
This was our first trip to a RIU property. It was beautiful and budget friendly in comparison to other places we've stayed. They require you to wear a bracelet and you are given towel cards. The sports bar is open 24/7, but there aren't many options, and we were told you cannot order more than one thing. Weird in my opinion as it is an All-Inclusive resort. Making reservations for the restaurants were almost impossible to attain and the process was not explained at check-in. I stayed up past midnight several nights to try and get in to them unsuccessfully. I personally don't enjoy buffets other than breakfast, so it was really disappointing to dine there for every meal. We were able to get into two of the restaurants our last two nights and the food & service was great. No room service, no pool or beach side service (no big deal). The entertainment was really good. We attended the white party and had a great time! They also had a Jamaican themed party on the beach one night that we e

Cozumel
We had a lot of fun on this trip. The resort (Fiesta Americana)was nice, clean, the staff were excellent. We had a master suite and it was quite large. It would be great for a family with kids as there were two bedrooms & two bathrooms. We had a great time shopping and exploring. A quick taxi to town was always easy to get. I’d highly recommend the buggy tour to explore the island. That was my favorite excursion! I’d definitely go back.
