✨VIRGIN VOYAGES DAYS 3-5✨ day 3 of the cruise was spent exploring the island of Honduras. All I have to say is WOW!! This island is stunning, and West Bay Beach blew my mind! The coral reef is protected from weather and wind, making this island paradise one of the top diving and snorkeling destinations in the world.

Day 4 was spent at sea, and Day 5 was our last port day where we spent our day in the Bahamas. Bimini is known as the hidden gem of the Bahamas, and let me tell you - they sure have a killer Day Club! Thanks again to for hosting us on this 6 night western Caribbean voyage. We had a blast!

For dinner we went to the Wake Steak & Seafood restaurant aboard the . The food here has been absolutely to die for delicious 😋

✨IBEROSTAR PARAISO LINDO RESORT TOUR✨ We spent 3 nights at the Iberostar Paraiso Lindo Riviera Maya last week. My kids loved this property. The resort is located in Riviera Maya between Playa del Carmen and Cancun and offers a wave pool, a waterpark with many slides, a lazy river, & an awesome beach.

We stayed in their 2 bedroom master family suite which is 2 adjoining suites. We loved all having a bit more space between the 4 of us, with a great location to the main pool, and beach.

✨MELIÁ CASA MAYA RESORT STAY/TOUR✨I spent 4 nights at the all new Casa Maya located beachfront in the cancun hotel zone. The resort offers two heated pools, an amazing beach, and family area for children with huge waterslides. The property is stunning, and the staff really went above and beyond. The suite shown is their Ocean Suite which consists of a dining area, living area with pullout sofa, 1 bedroom, huge walking closet and full bathroom ensuite.

We were lucky enough to be in Cancun for the hotel’s official grand opening party which was an absolute blast💥

✨MÍA REEF RESORT TOUR✨ I have been wanting to see this property for years, and I am so glad I was finally able to see it today!! Mia Reef is a family resort and one of the most private and secluded hotels located on the immaculate area of Playa Norte Beach in the northern area of Isla Mujeres.

Isla Mujeres is only accessible by ferry, and is located just a short 20 minutes from Cancun. The Mia Reef resort offers 156 deluxe rooms, suites, AND private villas.

The Street Art in Cartagena is guaranteed to stop-you-in-your-tracks. There are so many displays of large and small murals which showcase specific artists. The graffiti street art has always been one of my favourite things about Spain.
