About Me

Grace Bay Beach Turks and Cacaos
Grace Bay Beach Turks and Cacaos

However you want to get to the Caribbean I can help get you there. And I recommend getting there soon!!

You feel the warm sand between your toes, you feel the water lightly lapping at your waist as you stand in the water and look down threw crystal clear water and see fish swimming around your knees. This is not your normal beach trip, this is the Caribbean and it just gets better.

I can help you find the perfect resort to relax and forget about your worries. My wife and I are frequent Caribbean travelers and have almost been to Jamaica so many times we qualify and Jamericans.

The resorts are amazing and we start with Sandals. Having stayed as a guest at 7 of the resorts I can help you you fnd the right feeling for your relaxation. Whether you are looking for an active party scene or a relaxed slower vibe they have resorts for you. But wait that is not all we have to offer. You can also try out resorts from Secrets, Breathless, Reflect, Sunscape, Rui, Grand Bahia, Couples, ...........

You would prefer to see more than one island, no problem we can set you up on a cruise that will allow you to visit multiple warm islands and only unpack one time. With ships sailing to most of the larger islands we can find a ship that allows you to find just the right vacation vibe. And once you reach the islands we will help you find smaller group excursions that allow you to explore what the culture, people, and sights the island has to offer.

If you want to visit multiple island, but a cruise is not for you then let me tell you about Island Hopping. In 2018 my wife and I visited Turks and Caicos and then took a 1 hour small flight to Jamaica and stayed at Montego Bay. The flight was quick and easy and it allowed for the trip to take on very different aspects. In Turks and Caicos we relaxed at Seven Stars Resort in Grace Bay. The water was the most amazing light teal color I have ever seen. Then we went to Jamaica and stayed at Sandals Montego Bay and had a great fun party time. We enjoyed drinks on the beach during the day and we swam in a Bioluminescence bay one night.  We can make this happen for you, the hard part is picking which islands to include.

Kissing the Blarney Stone
Reviewed By Robertsonzoo - Narrows, VA | Traveled to Ireland ~ Europe
I found James when he replied to a comment I made on a public travel post. I had always been the one to do all of the research and booking for our trips. Now I have James to do it and I couldn't be happier. James finds the best deals, the quaintest locations, and the most fabulous venues for our trips. He searches until he finds exactly what fits our budget and our style. Our trip to Ireland will go down as one of the most fantastic trips we got to take with my parents who are in their 80s. My curmudgeon father absolutely loved the trip, so I know that James picked just the right tour for us.

James has planned many trips for us since I found him. 2020-2021 saw us cancelling many of our trips (all with James' help) - but 2022 is our great comeback and James is right in the middle of all of our planning. He is extremely responsive to messages and keeps in mind budgets and desires when sending options.

He is the best, you can't go wrong with his help.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Saved Honeymoon
    Cannot say enough good things about Seas2day! Our honeymoon was everything I dreamed of and more! Not just the trip but we had some flight issues and I called him in the middle of my reception and had it resolved within minutes! I can’t begin to express how much I appreciated everything he did for us! He goes above and beyond for his clients!
