If you’re looking for a family getaway over Easter break this year this is a great all-inclusive deal for a family of 4 in Puerto Vallarta! Only a 5 hour direct flight and 30 min from the airport - you’ll be on the beach for late afternoon cocktails.

Situated in the heart of Banderas Bay in Riviera Nayarit you can enjoy swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking and more. Walk for miles along this stretch of beach. Bask in the sun overlooking the ocean with your toes in the sand or relax poolside with food and drinks conveniently located steps away. Lots of games, restaurants and fun to be had here. Walk into the town of Bucerias (just steps away) and explore the many shops and restaurants this vibrant Mexican town has to offer.

Experience the Hidden Treasures of Southern Italy this Spring or Summer!

In the Apulia region, known for its centuries-old farmland, whitewashed towns, and miles of scenic coastline, the water is bluer, the produce is fresher, and the pace is delightfully slower.

From the scenic bluffs of lemon-scented Sorrento to the stunning 90-million-year-old caves of Castellana, you will experience Southern Italy’s best sights. At a special wine tasting at a local masseria, you’ll raise your glass to the many highlights of “the heel,” including its castles and conical houses, ancient ruins and fresh ricotta, and its eternal sunshine and sunny disposition.
