About Me

Certified Sandals Specialist
Certified Sandals Specialist

 

As a Certified Sandals Specialist, I have spent years helping couples and travelers create unforgettable memories at Sandals Resorts, the world’s leading collection of luxury, all-inclusive, adults-only resorts. I became certified because I truly believe in the brand’s promise of romance, relaxation, and world-class service. Each year I complete in-depth Sandals training to stay up to date on resort enhancements, new room categories, and signature experiences. With so many Sandals Resorts across the Caribbean, staying current is essential to providing my clients with the very best recommendations.

In addition, I am a Certified Sandals Wedding Specialist. This means I’ve not only taken specialized courses on planning Sandals destination weddings but also booked them for my clients. From intimate elopements to large celebrations, I understand the details that go into making a Sandals wedding seamless and stress-free.

I’ve personally traveled to most Sandals Resorts throughout the Caribbean. Each resort has its own unique vibe, whether it’s the timeless romance of Sandals Grande Antigua, the breathtaking scenery of Sandals Grande St. Lucian, or the overwater bungalows of Sandals South Coast. No matter the location, you can expect luxurious accommodations, stunning beachfront settings, gourmet dining, and the legendary service that Sandals is known for.

When you work with me, I’ll help you navigate every detail of your trip. I’ll explain the differences between islands, travel times from the airport, and the activities you can enjoy both on and off property. I’ll also help you pre-book unforgettable experiences such as:

  • A romantic candlelight dinner on the beach
  • A relaxing couples massage at the Red Lane® Spa
  • A thrilling scuba diving or snorkeling adventure (included)
  • Island excursions to explore waterfalls, culture, or local cuisine

One of the biggest challenges couples face when booking Sandals is choosing the right room category. With so many options, from swim-up suites to beachfront butler villas, it can get overwhelming. I specialize in matching my clients with the best fit for their style, preferences, and budget, ensuring they get the most value and enjoyment out of their stay.

Whether you’re planning a honeymoon, anniversary trip, vow renewal, or just a romantic escape, I’d love to help you choose the perfect Sandals Resort. My goal is to make the planning process easy, stress-free, and fun, so all you need to do is pack your bags and get ready for paradise.

Let me help you design your Sandals experience and create memories that will last a lifetime. I look forward to speaking with you and making your dream Caribbean getaway a reality!

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."
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    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.

    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!
