Packing Tip: ✈️

Pack 1/2 & 1/2 👜

If you’re taking 2 checked bags
pack half of your stuff in each bag,

Also, always pack at least one
change of clothes in your carry-on
or personal item. 🎒

Secrets Akumal 🐢

While in Mexico recently I was so excited to learn that we were going to get to tour this stunning resort. This beautiful, relaxing, tropical, adult-only resort would make the perfect romantic or group getaway!

Resort Facts:
🛏️ 434 Luxury Suites
🏊‍♂️ 3 large swimming pools including an expansive oceanfront infinity pool, serene pool & several smaller pools providing swim out access from select suites.
🍴 9 Dining options
🍹 7 Bars
👰Several beautiful Wedding locations
🧑🏼‍💻Over 8,000 Sq Ft of dedicated meeting space
✈️ Approximately 1 hour south of the Cancun Airport
🐢 Located along the calm waters of Akumal Beach which is an ideal location for snorkeling, scuba diving & sport fishing.
🧖🏼‍♀️ Secrets Spa by Pevonia

The resort grounds were GORGEOUS & the beach was clean and calm. Sea turtles are swimming freely among snorkelers and waders just a few feet from the beach…allowing guests to truly experience the reason why Akumal translates to “Place of Turtles” in Mayan!

The food was delicious, staff was friendly, suites were spacious, clean and comfortable, the oceanfront infinity pool was beautiful, & the atmosphere was calm and relaxing.

If you are looking for a romantic getaway for a honeymoon, anniversary, or destination wedding, I would highly recommend this resort. This would also be a fabulous resort for a group getaway with friends or a corporate incentive trip.

If you’re interested in more information or for a price quote for a stay at Secrets Akumal, please reach out and we’d love to help get you to paradise!🌴☀️

This may look like just a dream catcher to some…but to Marcela and her beautiful family this is their lively hood.

Today along with Mexico FAM Trips & ALG Vacations I had the pleasure of visiting Marcela (and her adorable family) at her roadside shop & home. They were SO welcoming & we even got to hear about her amazing craft & see & hear how these beautiful dream catchers are made.

This is a trade that has been passed down from generations in her family & her children begin learning how to make them at the age of 6.

After we left Marcela’s, with the beautiful dream catchers we were able to purchase. We then loaded the bus & headed to the Mayan Village that Mexico FAM Trips supports.

All the travel agents attending this FAM were asked to bring donations, or donate monetarily, for the village. We took the donations that were brought & helped hand them out in the Mayan Village to those in need & we got to play briefly with a few of the adorable kids who came out to see us.

I know some people feel guilty traveling. They feel like they could put that money to much better use. However; when you spend that money vacationing in a destination, like Mexico, know that you are helping to support families like these. And if you’d like any information on how you can donate to this amazing cause please let me know.

Happy Friday! I’m closing off the week working on finalizing a honeymoon clients reservation, preparing for a meeting with a bride who’s planning a destination wedding, & watching flights for a group who is traveling to beautiful Punta Cana today!

My honeymoon clients are planning their honeymoon on the beautiful, tropical island of Costa Rica! They were looking for an adventurous destination where they could experience the beautiful natural surroundings that Costa Rica has to offer.

After discussing a few Resort options they selected the beautiful Dreams Las Mareas Resort located along the sandy beaches of northern Costa Rica. (Pictured above)

It doesn’t take much to be productive on a Friday when I get to help clients plan memorable vacations to such beautiful and tropical destinations.

But once the work stops at 5 PM today, I’m planning to cook dinner for my family, find a good movie, and spend some time relaxing and enjoying some quality time with my husband and girls!

What’s on your work agenda for today?

16/02/2023

The most expensive travel mistake I see people making, and it’s not what you think…

It’s the time wasted trying to research and plan honeymoons all on their own.

Think about it, what’s your time actually worth. And what’s the real cost of spending 10-20 hours of your own time planning and coordinating a trip?

Now think about all of the time you save when you delegate your honeymoon travel planning to a Certified Destination Wedding, Honeymoon & Romance Specialist like me.💕

Let me help you kickstart the process with some inspo from my vetted list of romantic resorts that I know always deliver on service, luxury & quality.

Two of my favorite resort brands for romance travel are Sandals & Secrets! They specifically cater to the romance travel market & have designed their resorts to be the perfect place to unwind, relax, & enjoy quality time with each other.

I love waving my magic wand and saving my clients time and money 🪄

Are you the betting type? Me neither, and especially not when it comes to travel!

But if I were to bet on the best way to plan a group getaway, no surprise that I’d bet on my travel planning services.

After working in the hospitality/travel industry for 20+ years, I’ve learned a thing or two.

My clients never have to roll the dice on picking a destination they may not end up liking because it doesn’t match their travel style, or on booking accommodations that don’t end up meeting their expectations.

And they never have to worry that they may have packed their itinerary with things they don’t actually end up enjoying.

You can bet that when you put your vacation plans in my hands, you’ll get a trip that's designed for you!

Do you have any questions? Fire away in the comments.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever gone down the internet rabbit hole of places to travel to, resorts, hotels, tours, and all of the travel things…

There are SO many choices when it comes to honeymoons, family vacations, cruises, and other special vacations and the endless internet searches don’t always give more clarity.

Well, I don’t mean to brag but travel planning is my superpower and if you are:

👉 Done with the overwhelm and confusion of putting together a great trip.

👉 Want confidence that whatever you decide to book will check all of your boxes.

👉 Support in every stage of the travel process.

Head to the link in my bio or reach out via email at [email protected] where I can get to know you and your travel needs.

You’ll also get to know me and how I can help make your future travels stress free.
