Whether you’ve been married for decades, or just a year or two, celebrating an anniversary is always a special time. And it can be even more special if you choose to celebrate it on a romance-filled vacation, filled with time together – and without worries or the stress of daily life.

What can make this an even more unique and memorable anniversary? Choosing to have a “Re-Tie the Knot” ceremony at your destination, where you can renew your vows, and begin a new chapter of your lives together. Read more

There’s something uniquely special about vacationing with extended family – grandparents enjoying time with their grandchildren; little ones giggling as they hear fun family stories from the older ones; adult siblings reconnecting and reliving childhood memories – those family times are even more precious after the past several years.

But there are challenges in planning a multi-generational vacation. For example, how do you find a place:

Where there are fun activities for all ages from littles to seniors, and where no one will complain that they’re “bored”?
Where everyone can relax and enjoy quality time together – as well as some time apart?
And perhaps most importantly – where you’re getting a lot for what you’re spending, and where you won’t be nickel and dimed during your entire trip?

(Bonus points if it’s a place that’s beautiful, sunny, warm, and tropical…)

Allow me to introduce you to Beaches Resorts in the Caribbean as the *perfect* multi-generational vacation destination! Read more
