Caribbean & Mexico Travel Specialist | Romantic Escapes, Luxury All-Inclusive, Family Vacations

I have been a travel advisor for over 21 years, and helping clients create unforgettable vacations is what I love most about my work. I am a travel expert specializing in luxury honeymoons and romantic getaways in Tahiti, Hawaii, Mexico, and the Caribbean.

I also plan vacations to all-inclusive resorts for couples, friends, and families as well as group travel and destination weddings.

Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of what makes each destination unique, and I use that knowledge to match travelers with the perfect location for their style, interests, and travel dreams.

I’ve personally visited many of the Caribbean’s most beautiful islands, including St. Martin/St. Maarten, Antigua, the Dominican Republic, Grand Cayman, Jamaica, Aruba, the US Virgin Islands, St. Lucia, Turks & Caicos, the Bahamas, Barbados, St. Thomas, St. Kitts, Grenada, the Grenadines, and Bermuda, so I bring firsthand insight into resorts, beaches, activities, and hidden gems that can make your trip extraordinary.

My travels to Mexico include Cancun, Riviera Maya, Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, Riviera Nayarit, and Cozumel. As a certified “Mexpert,” I’ve completed extensive destination training and have access to exclusive tools and insights to ensure every detail of your trip is thoughtfully planned.

Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic escape, a family vacation, or a luxurious all-inclusive retreat, I make the planning process seamless, stress-free, and personal. My clients enjoy exclusive perks and amenities at select hotels, resorts, and cruises, a price match guarantee, flexible payment options, and attentive support from start to finish. I love connecting with travelers, understanding their vision, and bringing it to life with the perfect combination of resorts, experiences, and special touches that make a vacation truly memorable.

I am passionate about creating trips that exceed expectations and leave lasting memories. From private beachfront dinners and couples’ spa experiences to family excursions and unforgettable adventure activities, I take pride in crafting personalized vacations that reflect your style and bring your travel dreams to life.

With over two decades of experience, I have the knowledge, insider connections, and attention to detail to ensure your Caribbean or Mexico vacation is seamless, enjoyable, and unforgettable.

I can’t wait to help you plan your next incredible getaway and show you why the Caribbean and Mexico are some of the most magical destinations in the world.

30th Birthday Celebration
Reviewed By Jillian - Hazlet Twp, NJ | Traveled to Mexico ~ Mexico
Working with Cathy to plan my 30th Birthday in Mexico was seamless and perfect. She matched all the details I asked for and kept in touch with me as the trip approached. I never worked with a travel agent before, but Cathy made myself and my boyfriend feel confident and comfortable with the choice of resorts and logistics for the trip. I beyond loved the El Dorado Royale for its grounds, pleasant staff and especially the food (so many gluten free option). The second we arrived to the resort we were greeted with grace and all accommodations were above and beyond what we expected.
Cathy Jackson responded
"Thank you for your feedback, Jillian. I'm so happy you loved the El Dorado Royale! It's one of my favorite resorts. It was a pleasure working with you and I look forward to planning your next trip."

Anniversary Trip to Antigua

I recently returned from a 31st anniversary trip to Antigua where we split our time between two different resorts.  As a travel agent, it's important for me to experience as many resorts first hand as I can, so I usually try to split my time at different resorts when I travel.For this trip, it was a first visit for u...

Client Testimonials

Honeymoon in Moorea and Bora Bora
We used a Google search to find a travel agent to help us with our honeymoon planning. Once we started telling Cathy about what we wanted, she was on it. She was super helpful in her knowledge of French Polynesia. She recommended resorts that were perfect for us. To say Cathy was helpful is an understatement. She went above and beyond in helping us with the planning of our honeymoon. We set a budget and Cathy was extremely helpful in making us able to hit our goal. Her suggestions about the rooms to stay in at each resort were perfect and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. She was so fast with her responses! Sometimes we would email late at night, or on the weekend, when we had a question, and not expect a response until at least the next day, and we were super excited when she got back to us in minutes in most cases! Cathy gave us a list of tips and helped pick some excursions, and fit it all in our budget. If anyone needs a travel agent, Cathy Jackson gets our highest recommendation!

Trip to Jamaica
Cathy is an absolute pleasure to deal with and takes great lengths to keep me happy! I will definitely never use an online site to book a trip ever again as the service she provides is incomparable! Cathy planned two vacations for me and I will never use an online site again. The service is a complete pleasure and to use a professional like Cathy made my vacation planning such a great experience. I had a small issue when I went on vacation and with her in my corner, I had nothing to worry about!!! Thank you all for a great service that I will continue to use in the future!

Amazing Anniversary Trip to Antigua
I am extremely satisfied with the service and dedication that Cathy at Sunsational Vacations has provided. I have had the wonderful experience of dealing with Cathy several times now and have always had a great experience. Cathy provided me with recommendations, referrals, reviews and personal opinions as to places to visit that met my needs and desires. She took care of everything from start to finish including making dinner reservations and spa appointments prior to my arrival. She was very attentive to my reservation, kept my updated and informed all the way up to departure. I have and will continue to recommend Cathy.
Valarie P. - Englishtown, NJ
Our honeymoon in Tahiti was perfect!
My husband and I wanted to go to Bora Bora on our honeymoon, but we were afraid it might have been out of our budget. We contacted Cathy at Sunsational Vacations and she suggested we split up the trip, going to Moorea first (3 nights) and then Bora Bora (4 nights). In Moorea, she recommended getting a garden pool bungalow to save money. She explained why it's better to have an overwater bungalow in Bora Bora. We splurged on that and it was AMAZING! We appreciated seeing two islands and comparing the two. We were glad we got to go to our 1st choice honeymoon destination without breaking the bank (it wasn’t cheap, but we did save a lot based on Cathy’s recommendations). Both hotels were great, everyone was nice and catered to us like we were royalty. Thank you, Cathy for all your recommendations. Our honeymoon was perfect; better than we could have ever imagined!
