  • USVI - No Passport Required! I’ve heard that each of the US Virgin Islands has a character all of their own, and after visiting, I can confirm that this is a very true statement. This past June, I visited St. Croix, St. John, and St. Thomas and was blown away by the difference (and amazing beauty) of each island.
  • St. Barts Retains Its Charm! St. Barts is known as a place for the “Jet Set,” an island to see and be seen on as you enjoy its fabulous beaches, delicious restaurants and world renowned shopping. As we flew into the luxurious island, the magnificent views provided a telling first impression of its atmosphere.

  • Jetting to Red-Hot Jamaica As the heart of winter set in, I started counting down the days to my next escape. Jamaica in January certainly has its appeal! I quickly learned why it’s known as one of the most popular villa rental destinations in the Caribbean. After departing from the snowy Northeast, I arrived in sunny Jamaica within a few hours. Not only was the air warm and inviting, but the locals were too! The sun, sand, and slow pace certainly cater to a laid-back, relaxing lifestyle.
