About Me

I was fortunate enough to have an opportunity to travel when I was young and seeing new places, particularly the wonderful islands of the Caribbean, has also been a passion of mine. My favorite is Aruba, because of the warm and welcoming people and because the island is small, making it easy to get out and explore its various facets.

But there are wonderful experiences to be had on many other islands, from simply enjoying the crystal blue waters or lounging in a beach chair with a fruity umbrella drink, to tasting Blue Mountain coffee in Jamaica, swimming with pigs in the Bahamas, or having a mud bath inside a volcano in St. Lucia.

For the past 25 years, I have been privileged to help clients plan amazing vacations on the islands of their choice. I am an Aruba Certified Expert, Certified Sandals Specialist, Atlantis Ambassador, and a Jamaica Travel Specialist. But I also pass along my personal impressions and suggestions about how to enjoy the varied history, culture, and cuisine, the best deserted beaches, active sports, entertainment venues, and all the other interesting things to see and places to go in the unique islands of the Caribbean.

Travel is more complicated in many ways today than it used to be, but as a travel agent I have access to tools and information that is constantly updated. I pass along the latest tips about requirements and restrictions, so that my clients can enjoy trouble-free travel. My satisfaction comes from helping clients navigate all the logistics of a "perfect vacation."

I still love getting away to the Caribbean as often as possible, but when I'm not traveling, I thoroughly enjoy simply spending time outdoors with my husband and our Boston Terrier, Baloo.

Magical Trip
Reviewed By Diane - Lancaster, PA | Traveled to Nassau ~ Bahamas ~ Caribbean
Shannon was always very helpful. She replied promptly when I had questions, which I had lots. She is very pleasant and professional, knew her stuff when it came to planning my trip for me. I even added last minute things to my trip and she was right on top of it all.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Great times in the Mexican Riveria
Reviewed By Enjoy - Lancaster, PA | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We have been using Shannon for 15 years. She has always done a great job arranging our travel. One time stands out when we had a huge winter storm. She gave us good advice about staying home a few extra days and rearranging our travel plans. As it turned out we didn't have to spend time snowed in at the hotel before being able to head out on our trip. I would recommend to anyone wanting to plan a trip to give Shannon a call.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Walt Disney World - Awesome Family Vacation
Reviewed By Tina - Crosby, TX | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Shannon was life saver! She arrange our Walt Disney World family vacation while taking on all of the last minute requests from the 8 Adults and 6 children under the age of 12 with such effortlessness. Her Disney expertise are beyond words as she came up with additional recommendations for our time in the park that we were not aware of . Shannon was a blessing to work with as the only task that we had to do was to pack our bags (she even sent a suggested list for that as well)!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Best Trip of the Year!
Reviewed By Mike "Big Boss Man" - Lancaster, PA | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
I've worked with Shannon for over a decade. She's booked many vacations, from cold weather ski trips to sunny tropical vacations. The most recent trip (Feb 2020) to Jamaica was our 4th time, 3rd different resort. All was wonderful, Shannon ensures all details are addressed from meet and greet service, transportation to and from the resort, airlines, the works! I would urge anyone to use her services. She has knowledge about all of the resorts we have been to. We have never been even slightly disappointed.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
