I'm back from my amazing, whirlwind 3-day, 2-night FAM (familiarization) through Funjet Vacations to 3 islands and 3 Sandals & Beaches Resorts!  Yes, I did pay a fee to participate in this great opportunity, BUT it was at a greatly reduced rate. :)

Coming soon--my photos & highlights from the family-friendly Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa, plus the couples-only Sandals Royal Bahamian Spa Resort & Offshore Island!

Our first stop-the newest couples-only Sandals Resort, Sandals Emerald Bay Beach Resort & Spa in Great Exuma, Bahamas!

This could be your balcony-can you imagine waking up to this view every morning?!
  •  Formerly owned by Four Seasons, it re-opened as the all-butler Sandals Emerald Bay Beach Resort & Spa in January 2010
  • HOWEVER, as of January 2011, this will no longer be an All-Butler resort--they will begin offering Concierge Category rooms as well (no butler, but other amenities like a stocked mini-bar)
  • Yes, the water really is that color and unbelievably CLEAR!  This is an amazing location for scuba diving & snorkeling! Both are included in your price, and certified scuba divers can dive twice a day!
  • The on-site 18-hole Greg Norman designed golf course is not included in the 'luxury included' amenities of this resort, but features 6 signature oceanfront holes!
  • This resort is very isolated (i.e. not a lot of shopping or nightlife nearby), so it's best for couples who are looking for complete relaxation.
  • Receive a cell phone upon arrival to call your butler with any needs--and they're allowed to do anything LEGAL for you, lol!
  • Portions of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie were filmed on the amazing white sand beaches here!

Sandals Emerald Bay, Beaches Turks & Caicos, & the Disney Dream

Happy Holidays, everyone!

Have you noticed my website changes?  More to come soon, as I am hard at work on both logo and website renovations--a very exciting (and crazy...) time!  Hence the big blank

I have several fun 'FAM' (familiarization) trips coming up in the next month, so stay tuned for my blogs & photos from:
-the new all-butler Sandals Emerald Bay Beach Resort & Spa in Great Exuma, Bahamas
-the family-friendly Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa
-the brand-new Disney Dream ship inspection in early January, even before the inaugural sailing (VERY excited about that one in particular, since this is the Disney Cruise Line's first new ship in over 11 YEARS!)
