About Me

With so many All-inclusive resorts out there, it's a zoo trying to navigate which one is right for you.  That's why you should book with me.  Having traveled extensively to resorts in Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Jamaica, along with certifications in areas I have not personally traveled such as the Bahamas and Aruba, I can narrow the field to pinpoint the right resort for your taste and budget.  All to often, people choose their resort based on the price level.  I can tell you that is the worst thing you can do.  Not all resorts are created equal and just because resort A costs the same as resort B, does not mean you will have the same experience.  From the quality of food, to the attentiveness of the staff, each resort has it's own identity.  This even holds true for resorts in the same chain and same classification.  A great example of this was my stays at the Riu Palace Mexico and Riu Palace Punta Cana.  Both resorts are owned by Riu Hotel Group and hold the same classification; however, the level of service and quality of food the Riu Palace Mexico was hands down a better experience.  It's these details that can make or break your vacation and why my expertise will get you to the right resort. Even if you have a favorite resort, booking with me will give you the confidence that someone is there for you if you have any questions or concerns or if any problems should arise on your trip.

Perfect Second Honeymoon
My husband and I just returned from a week long trip to Cap Cana (South of Punta Cana) where we stayed at Sanctuary Cap Cana by Alsol. Dean was so helpful and patient while we were deciding where to go on our 'Second Honeymoon.' He helped keep us under budget and we stayed at a 5 Star resort. To say it was amazing is an understatement. Dean answered any questions we had a long the way and provided us with a 'Dominican Guide' which was super helpful. We will be calling again to plan our next trip... probably with the kids this time. Thanks Dean for all your assistance from beginning to end.
