Your Ultimate Caribbean Vacation Guide: Timing is Key!

If you are planning your Caribbean vacation, here is what you need to know!

Time of Year

Peak or non-peak travel dates affect pricing, so look at your calendar and decide when you can travel. This is important so you can get the best pricing during your travel dates. Plus, it is not easy to swap and make date changes after you have booked your vacation. Why pay for unnecessary change fees if you can make sure your original dates work for you.

Will this be an adult only or family friendly vacation? This is important so you know which resort is best for your vacation. If you plan to travel with your kids, make sure the dates work for their school and activities schedule also. The weather is important too. Will it be hot, rainy, or hurricane season?

Choosing Your Destination

Let’s make this one easy. What matters most when you are dreaming about your tropical vacation? Is it the pool with a swim up bar, tranquil blue water, swimming and playing in the ocean, all-inclusive, or lounging by the beach? Do you have any certain activities you want to experience?

Your Resort

Now that you have chosen your dates and Caribbean Island, which resort fits your travel style? Do you care more about the culinary options, the accommodations, the resort vibe, or the location of the resort? Some resorts have sister properties, and you can experience those during your stay. The possibilities are endless, so choose what fits you!

Planning in Advance

If you are a last-minute planner, I suggest allowing more time to book your vacation. This can help the pricing for your airfare and resort. I typically recommend at least six months in advance if your schedule allows it. Your Caribbean vacation is a magical experience waiting to happen, and by carefully considering the information above, you can make it even more extraordinary.

Dreaming about Sandals South Coast

Who doesn’t love a vacation in the Caribbean with amazing ocean views? I recently enjoyed a four night visit to the Sexy Sandals South Coast in White House, Jamaica! I wanted to share my experience because I know you will love it too!

What makes this resort so unique?

This resort is situated in the middle of a nature preserve. You are surrounded by beautiful mountains, lush landscapes, and the spectacular ocean views of the Caribbean in Jamaica, which I feel makes it so special! All the rooms are beachfront with the only exception being the new South Seas Swim-Up Rondoval Butler Suites! This means you have some budget friendly options that are also beachfront! This is an amazing perk to this resort friends!  

There are three extraordinary European Villages. The Italian, Dutch, and French Village, which all offer beachfront accommodations. You also have two unique accommodation options: Over the Water Butler Honeymoon Bungalows and the South Seas Swim-Up Rondoval Butler Suites with your Private Pool Sanctuary! With these amazing accommodation options, it is understandable why many dates sell out quickly!

You will enjoy nine dining options, authentic jerk chicken, and blue mountain coffee, which is my personal favorite! Unlimited land activities that are sure to keep you happy during your Jamaican vacation! Snuba, scuba, and more options are available too (some have fees)!

I have to give a shoutout to the Red Lane® Spa. The Rain Drop massage is my personal favorite and heavenly! I always suggest booking this on your second day if it is available so you can start your vacation completely relaxed and set the mood for the week!

Over the Water!

Over the Water Bar, Latitudes, is the best place to watch those gorgeous Jamaican sunsets! Grab your favorite cocktail and a seat as you prepare to be wowed! If you do not have a favorite cocktail, ask the bartender to make their specialty. The bartenders here always have their own signature drinks!   

Over the Water Wedding Chapel! When you say “yes”, let us help you plan your destination wedding. We know the best spots and all the details you need for your special day. We will work with you and the phenomenal wedding team! They help with everything you need for your special day! After all, when you say “I do”, it should be all about you!
