Royal Plantation Resort







A wonderful resort in the Ocho Rios area of Jamaica is Royal Plantation Resort. It is a very small, intimate resort with fabulous service and dining, and golf nearby. It is a colonial style adult-only resort located approximate 1/2 mile from the main area of Ocho Rios. There are only 75 guest suites with four-poster beds, CD players, and some have spa tubs. This resort can be all-inclusive, or European plan, if you want to get out and explore other restaurants in the area.

Ocho Rios is also a great area for activities outside the resort. I was lucky to experience Rafting on the Rio Grande on a bamboo raft. It is a very quiet serene ride with beautiful natural surroundings. There are a few little stands on the way where you can get a fresh coconut milk drink or even a Red Stripe if you like.

Another great activity is to climb Dunns River Falls. It is a multi-tiered waterfall, and everyone holds hands and climbs it together. You can stop along the way, and your guide will take pictures. Be sure to bring aqua sox or Tiva sandals to wear, since the rocks can be very slippery.

PETER ISLAND RESORT



One of my favorite areas of the Caribbean is the British Virgin Islands. They offer over 50 islands and are a mecca for Sailors, Divers, snorkelers, and watersports enthusiasts. I was fortunate enough to stay at a beautiful resort - Peter Island Resort - for a few days. This

luxury British Virgin Islands Resort is located on a private 1800 sq. foot island, with 5 beautiful beaches, and great cuisine. They also offer day trips to neighboring islands for shopping, sightseeing, and water adventures. All suites have 2 person jetted tubs, and are a perfect location for a Romantic getaway. I would, however, recommend not too many Painkillers (local drink). Also, if you have a chance, try out the Conk in lime butter sauce. Yum!

Anguilla, the Friendly Island

One of my personal favorite islands in the Caribbean is Anguilla. One of the finest luxury Anguilla hotels is Cuisinart Resort and Spa. This is a world class Anguilla resort located on Rendezvous Bay, one of the best beaches in the world. With only 93 rooms all with oceanviews, it is a perfect destination for a honeymoon or wedding. This resort has a hydroponic farm, and some of the finest cuisine in the Caribbean. Be sure to try one of the cooking classes while you are there.

A lot of our clients combine a stay in Anguilla with a stay in a luxury St. Martin Resort such as
La Samanna - St. Martin.
