Who says the Caribbean can’t be cozy?

Here are my top picks for resorts/hotels to escape to this Fall if you’re looking for cozy relaxation and a slower pace.

1. Sandals Grenada – Perfect for couples, with private plunge pools and serene beaches.
2. Jade Mountain, St. Lucia – Stunning views and infinity pools that offer the ultimate tranquility.
3. The Palms, Turks and Caicos – A luxurious retreat with beautiful architecture and a peaceful ambiance.

I know, I know, how dare I speak about Fall when we’ve still got lots of summer days left? But I wouldn’t be a good travel advisor if I didn’t give you that nudge to start planning early, and since Fall is just around the corner, we’re getting down to the wire.

If you’re inspired by any of the resorts I mentioned above, or have somewhere else in mind, let’s chat. I can help you finalize and book everything.

I have a bit of a controversial take on luxury travel.

I’m a pretty big believer that luxury travel isn’t always 5-star resorts and first-class tickets (although both of those are nice!).

Luxury can be as simple as having someone else plan and book all the details for your trip so there’s no stress on your shoulders.

Luxury can be an itinerary tailored perfectly to you, without you having to lift one finger.

Luxury can be as simple as seamless logistics, where all the details are planned and organized for you without any stress or wasted time.

Just know that whether your idea of luxury is the 5-star resorts or it’s all of the things I listed above, I’m a DM or email away and ready to assist!

Pesky summer travel hiccups + what to do about them

➡️ Seat Swap Surprises

So, you’ve checked in online and picked your seats, but then you get to the airport and... surprise! They’ve changed.

What to Do: Head straight to the gate desk (not the ticketing counter). Gate agents are your best friends here—they can help fix the seating situation or find someone willing to switch seats.
Lost or Delayed Luggage

➡️ Your bags are MIA

What to do: Find the airline’s baggage desk near the baggage claim area and file a claim before you leave the airport. If you can’t locate the desk, call the airline ASAP to report your missing luggage.

Hang on to those receipts for any essentials you need to buy—just keep it reasonable (no designer splurges, unfortunately). Then, when you’re back, file a claim with your travel insurance. If you got

➡️ Delayed and cancelled flights

What to do: Check the Department of Transportation (DOT) Dashboard: If the delay is within the airline’s control, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Airline Customer Service Dashboard will show you what each airline should do to make it up to you.

➡️ Not Loving Your Hotel Room

Your room’s not up to par? Here’s how to get it sorted

What to do: Ask for the manager. Call from your room or go to the front desk and ask to speak to a manager. Be specific about the issues and honest about what resolution you’re seeking.

➡️ Rental Car Issues

What to do: If your rental car isn’t what you expected, contact the rental company’s customer service. They might be able to upgrade or switch your vehicle. Always check the car for damage before driving off the lot and report any issues immediately.

I hope you don‘t encounter any of these hiccups this summer, but if you do, use this as your quickstart guide to problem-solving. Enjoy these blissful summer days!

Book with me and I can help resolve these issues so you don’t have to!

Why would someone book a trip with a travel advisor instead of on the internet? Here are a few reasons 👇

Handpicked Accommodations: Without having to scour the internet with browser tabs toggled between multiple hotels, you can’t keep track of endless review sites that don’t actually give you any clarity.

Expert Recommendations: Whether I’m matching you to that lesser-known but amazing local guide or helping you decide which tours and experiences best suit your style, I’m sharing insights from my personal travel experiences and my network of travel experts around the world.

Reclaiming time: I save my clients dozens of hours and weeks, or sometimes even months, of scouring the internet trying to figure out what to book and how to pull a great trip together.

If you haven’t experienced the absolute relief and ease of having an expert take care of your travel plans, friend, I promise you, it is SUCH a good feeling.

Nothing makes me think YIKES more than seeing online forums and messages of people whose vacations were ruined because they got to their resort or hotel, and it was not as expected.

Now, some of you may not necessarily care too much about where you lay your head at night, you’re there to explore and enjoy the destination.

But for some of you, the resort or hotel experience can absolutely make or break your whole trip.

👉 My advice?

Don’t go off of the photos online, and outdated reviews you’re hoping still reflect the current situation.

I love that I can give my clients dynamic knowledge of resorts and hotels, either by visiting myself or by tapping into my network of trusted people on the ground.

They get the scoop so they don’t end up at a place with shabby rooms, stiff mattresses, and a pool that’s closed for maintenance.

When you’re ready to book trips fully armed with ALL of the information, not just what you see online, this travel pro over here is ready to help!

Travel planning is key…but a sprinkle of spontaneity?

That’s where the magic is waiting for you.

Here’s how to mix in both to get the most out of your next adventure

👉Set the foundation
Nail down your must-see and must-do things. Think of it as your travel safety net—no missed flights, overbooked hotels and tours, or long lineups. Setting the foundation removes all the stress and FOMO of travel.

👉Flex Room
I always recommend clients leave gaps in their schedule for the unexpected. We always think we can pack more into an itinerary than we probably should I’m guilty!). Use those gaps for exploring and doing things that spontaneously pop up along the way — things like local festivals, hidden-away towns you’re driving through, etc.

👉Stress-Free Exploring
With your essentials covered, you can enjoy unplanned moments without worrying about missing out. You’re going in knowing that you roam freely because your wishlist items are taken care of.

“Just go online and book your vacation. It’s so easy…”

Until you’re up at 1 AM thinking…

"Should I book the tour or just rent a car?"

"Should I give that hotel a chance even though it’s an hour away from everything?”

"Is 3 days enough time?”

There are so many little things that come up in the travel planning process that will need your time and attention.

OR

I can step in and do all that thinking for you:

💡 I‘ll handle all the nitty-gritty research and planning so you can sit back and dream.

📝 Do you have a list of special considerations? Consider it done!

✈️ Booking, coordinating, tracking confirmation codes? Leave it to me!

I’d love to connect with you on a complimentary discovery call to hear all about your travel goals (no strings attached!) and see what I can do to help you plan the trip you really want and deserve.
