When I was younger I have sailed the Caribbean many times. I was new to visiting the Carribean and cruising allowed me to taste the different islands (kind of like a buffet) Then I got older and knew which islands I really wanted to go to and the ones I didn’t really have an interest in bc I had been there on a cruise.  I think cruising is still the best way to visit different countries in Europe. 

Something I often notice when clients tell me they want to experience a new country is this: Most people think visiting a country means going to the major cities. And while big cities certainly have their place, they rarely tell the whole story.

Let’s be honest…every single year there are new all-inclusive resorts opening in the Caribbean, especially in Mexico. The all-inclusive industry is booming and it’s absolutely here to stay. And don’t get me wrong… I still sell a ton of them and I love them for the right type of trip.

When most people think of cruising, they picture massive ships with thousands of passengers, long buffet lines, and waiting in crowds just to get off the ship.

One of the questions I get asked often is: “What’s so special about Sandals Resorts?” My answer: Sandals isn’t just a vacation—it’s an experience.

I’ll be honest, when I first saw how many people were starting to use AI for planning trips, even I thought… “Uh oh, what does this mean for travel advisors like me?”
