About Me

Robert George isn’t just a travel advisor—he’s a professional tan enthusiast, cocktail connoisseur, and certified vacation strategist who believes life is simply too short for bad trips, pale winters, and ordinary cruises.

As the founder of Only Tans Vacations and a Travelling with Disabilities, Robert specializes in all-inclusive escapes, luxury ocean voyages, group getaways, and unforgettable adventure travel. But what truly sets him apart is his commitment to accessible travel. After a life-changing accident that cost him a limb, Robert gained firsthand insight into the real fears, barriers, and questions travelers with disabilities often face. Today, he uses that experience to help clients travel confidently—whether they require mobility accommodations, accessible transfers, specialized cruise cabins, or simply the reassurance that someone understands their journey.

From luxury escapes and singles getaways to fully accessible family adventures, Robert’s mission is simple: design vacations where every traveler feels included, supported, and ready to enjoy the moment—preferably with a drink in hand and an
ocean view nearby.

With a passion for all-inclusive bliss, bougie ocean voyages, and adventure-filled getaways, Robert has made it his mission to send travelers somewhere fabulous. Whether you're looking for a luxurious escape, a singles getaway (we see you ??), or a family-friendly adventure, he’s got the perfect trip that even your in-laws will approve of.

When he’s not planning dream vacations, you’ll find him scouting the best beach bars, testing the perfect SPF-to-sun ratio, who shakes the best cocktail, and reminding people that travel advisors don’t just book trips—they remove stress, unlock perks, and make travel possible for everyone.

Let’s turn your vacation dreams into memories—and yes, maybe a few legendary tan lines too. ??#BookWithRobert #AccessibleTravel #OnlyTansVacations

First All-Inclusive
Reviewed By Bill - Oakville, Ontario | Traveled to Punta Cana | Dominican Republic | Caribbean
I was very nervous about travelling, as a retired person with medical issues I did not know what my options were. Robert was great, we got to discuss what my challenges are and came up with solutions. The sense of no judgement, no bias was refreshing, I found it easier to discuss things with my travel agent over my doctor.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Where I learned to smile again
Reviewed By Jim - London, Ontario | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Last year I became paralyzed in one leg from the knee down. I quickly realized how much I had taken for granted the simple things like being able to walk and climb stairs with ease. My wife and I had wanted to take a trip, but I was worried how well I’d be able to enjoy it or what kind of activities and excursions I’d even be able to participate in with limited mobility. I heard about Robert George through a friend and reached out to him. He was sympathetic to the challenges I was facing and very knowledgeable about accommodations that were available. After getting to know me, he was able to recommend a resort and took care of our booking for us. We had an AMAZING time! The resort was beautiful, was accessible, and set up to provide me with the full travel experience despite my leg. I will continue to go back to him whenever travelling!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

The Best Trip of My Life — at 79 Years Old!
Reviewed By Eddie - St. Catharines | Traveled to Varadero | Cuba | Caribbean
I’m 79 years old and recently took my very first solo trip — to Varadero, Cuba — all arranged by Robert George at Only Tans Vacations. To say he made it easy would be an understatement! From the moment I called, Robert handled everything. He found me a resort that was flat and easy to get around, close to the beach and dining, and even made sure I had wheelchair assistance at the airport (which was a lifesaver for these old knees). I was a little nervous about going alone, but the staff at the resort knew I was coming and treated me like family. My room was on the main floor near the pool, and Robert even reminded me to pack my medication and arranged my travel insurance. He checked in before, during, and after my trip — that’s service you just don’t get anymore. And let me tell you — I had a blast! The music, the sunshine, the rum (just a little!), and the friendly people made it one of the best experiences of my life. I even made a few new friends from Canada who already want to go back with me next year. If you’re a senior like me thinking about travelling but feeling unsure — don’t hesitate. Robert will take care of every detail and make sure you have nothing to worry about except what drink to order next. Thank you, Robert — you made me feel young again!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
