Travel Reviews

After a Summer of work, work, and more work we decided to take a few days of R&R before the holiday season. September through November is considered the off-season for Mexico, so it’s a good time to catch decent deals on travel and accommodations. Unfortunately, this is also the hurricane season which could be disastrous if attempting to travel during this time. Throwing caution to the wind, we booked our trip for late September and ended up with a storm-free week of fun and frivolity. The forecast literally called for Thunderstorms every damn day! It probably only rained for 20 minutes during the entire five days we were in Mexico. Otherwise, it was sunny and hot. We divided our trip into two parts; we spent two days exploring the streets of Playa Del Carmen before heading to The Grand at Moon Palace resort.

I love New York but every now and then I need to get away from the city and enjoy a little slice of paradise.  With any luck, I’ll get to visit Palace Resorts in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. About a week ago we attended the launch party for the spectacular resort via a cocktail reception at Arena just off of time square.  The event introduced media, and industry insiders to the fabulous new vacation spot. Guests enjoyed complimentary cocktails and passing appetizers while hearing about the grande project from the key players behind the scenes. Moon Palace Jamaica Grande is the first property owned by Palace resorts on the island. When thinking of places for their next project Jamaica stood out as the go-to destination. Its culture, history and natural beauty stood out to investors as the perfect place for a new resort.

What’s Happening at Grand Lucayan

If you’re looking for a fun getaway to relax or hang with family and friends, then you should definitely check out Grand Lucayan, in Grand Bahama Island. Its the largest property in the fourth biggest island of the Bahamas. Although not located right on the US, the island is just 55 miles off the Florida coast, making it extremely accessible and perfect for a relaxing getaway without having to go far. Here are a few fun facts about what this town is known for:

Now that the weather has finally improved, its is finally time to take our party to the harbor. Spirit Cruises offers several daily cruises aboard the posh Spirit of New York yacht. We recently had the privilege of enjoying the season’s maiden voyage aboard the newly renovated vessel. Last week we attended a press showcase which allowed media and industry insiders the chance to experience a two hour tour complete with dinner buffet and DJ. Since our last visit with Spirit Cruises there have been several fabulous changes.

The Spirit of New Jersey is a beautiful newly renovated ship with a relaxing topside lounge, a world-class dining room and panoramic views of the harbor. We met up with our boat at Lincoln Harbor in NJ just 10 minutes from midtown Manhattan. An evening aboard The Spirit of New Jersey consists of dinner, dancing, and live entertainment. The entertainment provided depends on which of the themed cruises you choose. Most cruises feature a live DJ who spins the top 40 hits while narrating the sites along the way. The themed options include a Gospel Brunch as well as a Latin Moonlight Cruise. In honor of the servicemen and women, visiting New York for Memorial Day Weekend, we chose the Saturday Fleetweek and Tall Ships Dinner Cruise.
