I just got home from the beautiful island of Jamaica 🇯🇲

While there I was hosted by the Hyatt Inclusive Collection and stay at Secrets St. James Montego Bay. We also got to experience Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay, Breathless Montego Bay Resort & Spa and Zoetry Montego Bay.

Secrets St James, Secrets Wild Orchid and Breathless Montego Bay sit on a peninsuala which offer great views and amazing sunsets! Staying at Breathless gives you full access to Secrets and while you are set back from the beach, there is still a Breathless Beach Club! Staying at Secrets you have exchange privileges between both properties, but if you are staying in Preferred Club you also have full access to Breathless! Breathless also has a great rooftop pool and restaurant

Zoetry is a great resort and is only 49 rooms! This is the place to go to disconnect and recharge. Perfect for yoga 🧘‍♀️ and having that zen ambiance. Zoetry is all about your well being and with no check in or check out times your vacation starts right away!

Just got back from a Hyatt Inclusive FAM Trip and got to visit 6 properties while there!

I stayed at Hyatt Ziva Riviera Cancun for 2 nights and the new Hyatt Vivid Grand Island (adult only)for 2 nights. We also did site inspections of Dreams Sapphire, Secrets Playa Blanca, Dreams Vista and Dreams Sands

🌴 Hyatt Ziva Riviera Cancun- opening a beach club in 4-6 weeks. This resort is not known for a great beach due to the location, so once this is complete there will be a nice area to hang out in the beach. This is a family friendly resort with 1 adult only restaurant and an adult only quiet pool. They have a few water slides, a kids club and teen zone for the kids.

🌴 Dreams Sapphire- New section coming September 1! Will have all oceanfront rooms 😍They will also have new villas with butler service! Villas are gorgeous! Each with their own pool and will be able to fit 6 adults and 2 kids. These will not have an ocean view.

🌴 Dreams Vista- reminds me of a cruise ship the way that it is laid out. They have a big Olympic style pool, a nice “cafeteria” style section, a new pier section that was built on the beach and they do romantic dinners on the beach in air conditioned igloos! This is a great resort for families as 80% of the rooms on property can be connecting rooms. This is also right near the public ferry to Isla Mujeres.

🌴 Dreams Sands- this resorts was renovated end of 2022. They built a new spa and new preferred club area with a new pool. The beach is much larger than it used to be! They also added a cafeteria area were they have snacks open 24 hours and the sports bar is open until 1am. This resort tends to attract younger adults looking to be able to experience Cancun nightlife and families with young kids due to the calm beach.

🌴 Secrets Playa Blanca- this resort is gorgeous! It just opened in February and has an amazing beach 😍 I liked how there was a lot of different areas around the resort that it didn’t feel crowded

🌴 Hyatt Vivid Grand Island- this is a brand new adult only resort located on the lagoon side (not on the beach). The vivid concept is all about experiences so they have a lot of things to do during the day. It is very Bohemian style resort with a very relaxed feel. This isn’t the unlimited luxury concept and is very relaxed (casual no long pants for dinner). This is a great resort for Bachelorette/ Bachelor parties too. The views were amazing! This is on the lagoon so the sunsets are great and you can watch the sunrise over the ocean from the rooftop or if you have a golf view room. There is a beach club 5 minutes away where you would grab the complimentary resort shuttle or you can take a taxi there and back. The shuttle is on a schedule. The beach club has a restaurant, a bar, wait service, small infinity pool, and is on Playa Delphine Beach. very beautiful beach.

“We had such a great time! I can’t thank you enough and Colin was the best- more than we could have hoped for!! We loved Scotland and didn’t want the trip to end. We saw and did some many amazing things. We’re so grateful to you both for such an unforgettable experience” -Jessie

“Excellent trip! We found lots to do and explore quite a bit! Colin was exceptional. He came across more as a friend in Scotland than a guide. Thanks for everything” - Kyle
