Yesterday we enjoyed Sandals Royal Bahamian’s private island where we went snorkeling, enjoyed some pool and beach time as well had an amazing lunch.
For dinner we dined at Butch’s, Sandals Resorts signature steakhouse, and it did not disappoint! After dinner we enjoyed some fun and karaoke!
We are enjoying the resort today and then doing an excursion to The Exumas tomorrow.
Stay tuned!
We arrived at Sandals Royal Bahamian yesterday and enjoyed our first afternoon lounging in the pool and hanging out with our friends while tasting some delicious food.
Today we are planning a trip over to the private island and we have dinner tonight at Butch’s.
Stay tuned and follow the fun!

Have you ever heard the saying “Rome wasn’t built in a day?”
But did you know you could see it all in one day? To go along with my clients Mediterranean cruise I just booked them a day in Rome, allowing them to see all the highlights including The pantheon, Trevi fountainc Spanish steps, Colosseum and of course The Vatican and Sistine Chapel!
Experiencing this firsthand I knew exactly who to go to so that we could ensure checking off all their bucket list request.
Just a friendly reminder that I book more than Disney!
Who wishes this was their view today? 🏖️

Let’s chat, just comment below! ⬇️
Yesterday was a first in my agent career and I hope a last!
Medical emergencies do not discriminate and my precious clients thought they would be starting their Alaskan cruisetour with Celebrity Cruises yesterday, but instead at just 5 years old the youngest in their family suffered a seizure and was in need of critical care.
The tour was to start in Fairbanks, but to get the best care it was medically necessary to get to Anchorage where there is a children’s hospital. Due to the location the child had to be transported via flight.
Guys I cannot stress enough how important travel insurance AND a seasoned travel agent are in these situations!
My day started at 7 am with a call from the Dad, who didn’t travel on this trip, but needed to get to his family ASAP. With the help of Delta Air Lines, who graciously offers medical emergency discounts (verification required), I got him booked on the next available flight. Then booked hotel for the other traveling family in Anchorage, called Celebrity to inform them as well as started the insurance claim to ensure any legwork that could be done was because I wanted to take any stress I could off the family.
No one ever thinks these things can happen, but no matter how much we plan and prepare, it’s life! Make sure you have some type of coverage and someone to help you when it does!
Shoutouts to Celebrity Cruises, Delta Air Lines and Aon insurance, it’s a pleasure to work with businesses that still care!
Lastly, the child has made a full recovery and they hope to continue their vacation tomorrow 💗 🫶🏼
❤️🤍💙 Happy 4th of July! ❤️🤍💙

A year ago we arrived in Naples, Italy before heading out on our private excursion we had a breakfast at Cabanas with a view of the city.
Our first stop was the gorgeous town of Sorrento where explored the sights and shopped for their famous leather goods & lemon goodies.
Next we went to Pompeii to explore the ancient city that was destroyed in a Volcanic eruption, but perfectly preserved by the ash.
Upon arriving back at the port staff greeted us with cool towels & we learned our favorite strawberry banana ice cream had made an appearance.
Since we had late dining we decided to order a quick bite of room service and then enjoy some pool time!
