Your Dream Vacation


from the desk of, Nora MacDonald

Imagine soft coral sand beaches, warm turquoise waters, tropical breezes, and astounding natural beauty. Imagine a vacation that could include all of this plus history, culture, night life, shopping and a vast array of activities. Where, your each and every need is met from rising in the morning to laying your head on your pillow at night after a fun filled day. Is this your idea of a perfect vacation?

There are many types of vacations to choose from, but where to begin? In choosing the vacation that is right for you,  both the resort and the destination must be considered. You will want to think about what is important to you, what type of experience you are searching for. Are you looking for Romance, a little R & R, Family Travel, Destination Weddings, Culture, Shopping and Nightlife or perhaps even adventure? Does an all-inclusive holiday appeal to you or perhaps you are a little more adventurous and would like to strike out on your own?

All inclusive vacations have become increasingly popular over the past 30 years. Like cruising, they offer excellent value for your vacation dollars. Most all inclusive resorts will offer meals, with a choice of buffet or a-la-carte dining, alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages, non motorized water sports, daily activities & nightly entertainment. Also, you will have the peace of mind in knowing that your vacation with the exception of local tours and excursions has been prepaid. All inclusive resorts can be found throughout the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America.

Depending on your choice of travel destination, there is much to be said for choosing a non all inclusive holiday as well. Some destinations, Aruba, for example, lend themselves to the choice of either or, while you will find in the Dominican it is largely all inclusive. These holidays work best for those who are a little more adventurous and love the idea of venturing forth and experience the Islands culture, attractions and local cuisine. Destinations such as Hawaii and Las Vegas however, are available on a strictly FIT basis, meaning that there is no option for all inclusive. It really comes down to each individual's personal taste and convenience. Either way, your vacation is largely what you make of it, but it is nice to have the choice.
