About Me

Aruba De Palm Island
Aruba De Palm Island

My name is De’Serea—though most people call me Dez. By day, I’m a dedicated Pediatric Care Coordinator, and by night (and every free moment in between), I’m a full-on jet setter! I’m literally always somewhere.I have to admit... I’m completely OBSESSED with traveling. There’s something magical about stepping into a new place, soaking up the culture, and seeing the world from a fresh perspective—and I love helping others do the same.I’ve been incredibly blessed to explore some amazing destinations, including Cuba, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Paris, Italy, Colombia, London, Barbados, Los Cabos, and Aruba—and that’s not even counting the countless U.S. states I’ve visited!

A brand aimed to provide the stressless travel

Just waking up from the most amazing Cancun vacation! All thanks to Dez for setting the necessary accommodations for the most stress free, relaxing, kid free week! She was there every step of the way willing to help without complaints! With changes, late night calls & delays(mostly on my part)she never acted like we were annoying her! The time & amount of $$ it takes to plan an international trip, I can honestly say I was BLOWN AWAYYY HONEYYY -April R.

My Travel Agent/Destination Wedding Planner is a beast with it. We Traveling With Dez! -Jelian S.

Again, if you are looking for a travel agent look no further because Dez got it & she don’t miss a beat! All I had to do was show up because everything else was already taken care of!  -Brittany W.

My birthday trip
Reviewed By Lexi - Chicago | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Deserea booked my trip to Cancun for my birthday last year and everything was amazing! From the accommodations and the transportation to the dining outside of the resort everything was awesome. We didn't do any excursions because the trip was just to relax and she made sure that I didn't have to do anything but show up and certain times for my transportation. I have another vacation booked through her in a couple months and I can't wait to see the magic she worked for this time. I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to everyone I know that's looking to book a trip because she listens to your wants and try to make sure she check every box!

Aruba: Easy Vibes, Bright Views, and Island Flavor

Aruba gave me everything I was looking for—sunshine, clear blue waters, friendly locals, and nonstop good vibes. One of my favorite experiences was spending the day on De Palm Island. I relaxed in a private cabana, hung out with flamingos, hit the water slides, and even tried the SeaTrek helmet dive. Walking underwater and being surrounde...

Barbados: Good Vibes, Great Food, and Even Better

My stay at Sandals Barbados was everything I needed and more. From the moment I arrived, I was surrounded by beautiful views, warm hospitality, and the kind of energy that makes you instantly feel at home. One of the best parts of the trip? The food. Barbados has such a rich mix of flavors—Caribbean, African, British, and Indian influence...

Client Testimonials

1st time in Bali
Our first group trip to Bali was truly unforgettable! We visited the Gates of Heaven, played and bathed with elephants, did a beautiful photoshoot with them, and even had dinner in an underwater aquarium restaurant—like, seriously?! Every day was something magical. We watched the sunset on a black sand beach, ate so much delicious food, and just fully enjoyed ourselves. The trip was so well-planned, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Even though I stayed for 7 days, it felt way too short. That’s how much I loved everything Dez put together. I’m already thinking about going back—and next time, I’m staying longer!
