We stopped the exclusive launch event for Carnival Cruise Line’s newest and much anticipated ship ever, Carnival Vista. It’s set to debut in spring 2016. This innovative ship is designed to connect guests to the ocean with sweeping views and plenty to do both outdoors and in.

Let’s get to why this cruise is innovative:

Outdoor Fun

The SkyRide is a breakthrough suspended open-air cycling experience. This will the cruise industry’s first pedal-powered open-air aerial attraction. Adventurous riders can climb aboard hanging recumbent-like bikes to cycle their way around the 800-foot suspended track with panoramic views from 150 feet above the sea. Nearby will be SkyCourse, an exhilarating suspended ropes course. Both are part of the expanded outdoor activity park that also includes a new indoor sports hangout, The Clubhouse at SportSquare¸ featuring mini-bowling, ping-pong, arcade basketball, sports video gaming and more.

The WaterWorks water park in the fleet, kids and kids at heart will find a thrilling array of splash-tastic fun including Kaleid-O-Slide, the line’s first-ever water tube attraction. Riders will hop on inflatable one or two-person rafts taking them on a fun-filled 455-foot adventure of exhilarating twists and turns with stunning kaleidoscopic visual effects.

As a movie goer, I was excited to hear about Carnivals partnership with IMAX to bring the world’s most immersive cinematic experience to sea with the first-ever IMAX Theatre on a ship. Guests will take in the latest Hollywood blockbusters, IMAX classics and IMAX documentary content on a screen that’s three decks high. Next door at the Thrill Theater, moviegoers can enjoy a multi-dimensional special effects experience. Both are part of the Carnival Multiplex, a first at sea for film fans, complete with concession stand offering popcorn and movie snacks. The Warehouse, featuring a variety of video and arcade games, is located adjacent to the Carnival Multiplex.

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.

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:

There’s nothing better than a road trip for the last weekend of summer. A few friends some roadside snacks and you could travel for hours and never miss a thing. This summer we spent part of the last weekend in the fabulous Mohegan Sun resort in Uncasville, CT. At a mere 2 hours from NYC it is a convenient getaway and one of the tri-state areas most alluring attractions. We started our trip in Manhattan NY and were barely on the road 20 minutes when we found ourselves stuck in traffic. This would have been catastrophic had we not chosen to rent the Lincoln MKZ. The Lincoln climate control and Sirius satellite radio sound speakers kept us cool and entertained. The traffic jam became less and less of an annoyance as we made our way to Uncasville.
