Yipeeeeee – Turks & Caicos Is On Sale!

Those of you who know me well, know that although I’ve traveled all across the globe, Turks and Caicos is the only destination I’ve ever seriously considered moving to.  Yes, it’s that wonderful!  Spectacular beaches, aquamarine and electric blue ocean, friendly locals, world renowned bone fishing, an eclectic array of restaurants, and gorgeous upscale resorts await.  The fact that it was protected from major development until a dozen years ago, helps to explain why it remains a pristine paradise that attracts movie stars and beach lovers alike.  But alas, as luxury resorts have gone up, so have the prices.  It’s been rare to see dramatic sales in Turks and Caicos – so when promotions are announced, it’s time to celebrate and book a trip.  Here are details of the best current promotions:

American Airlines has announced a Caribbean airfare sale (including Turks and Caicos) for flights between April 1 – May 22nd, purchase by March 22, 2010.

The West Bay Club – One of Turks and Caicos’ newest and most appealing boutique properties on celebrated Grace Bay, is tempting you to stay longer with free night offers that continue from April 11th through November 22, 2010.  Book three nights in a luxury one bedroom or larger accommodation and receive an additional night free.  Or relax for 5 nights and receive two additional nights free.  This offer is valid for stays from 4/11 – 5/31/10.  Beginning June 2nd, the resort offers a 5th night free plus 10% off their great summer rates for stays of five nights or longer.

Free Companion Airfare To The Bahamas

The Bahamas Tourism Bureau has announced the extension of their winter promotion – free companion airfare for travel to the Bahamas through December 22, 2010 (two for the price of one!!) Travelers who book a 4 night stay by March 3rd at participating hotels in Nassau, Paradise Island, Grand Bahama Island and The Out Islands qualify for the free airfare.

If you haven’t considered The Bahamas before, I encourage you to take a fresh look.  Gone are the days of emphasis on gambling and glitz.  Today you’ll find The Bahamas sensitive to protecting their 700 pristine islands, and proud to offer friendly, attentive service.  In recent years air service to the Out Islands has increased making them easy to reach.  The Out Islands are simply spectacular with long ribbons of gorgeous beaches and quaint intimate resorts.  If you ever had a Robinson Crusoe daydream, this is the destination to fulfill your fantasy!  And for all of you who lament the overbuilding of Turks and Caicos…. the Bahamas will return you to the days of beach side bars, local resorts and friendly residents.

To take advantage of the two for one airfare promotion, get all the finer details by visiting Bahamas.com or calling 1-800-Bahamas.  Vacations must be booked by March 3, 2010, with travel completed by December 22, 2010 and some blackout dates apply.

Cat Island Bahamas – The Pristine Paradise You’ve Been Dreaming Of!

Don’t wait another minute to discover Cat Island in the Out Islands of the Bahamas – you’ll find miles and miles of gorgeous (undeveloped) beachfront and delightful laid back intimate resorts.  I’m just back from a fabulous 4 night vacation at the Fernandez Bay Village on Cat Island and can’t wait to go back again. If you’re looking for a beautiful, secluded resort to reconnect, rekindle, and recharge – this resort delivers with outstanding beauty and charming accommodations.  As I sit in cold, rainy Florida, with temps in the 50’s, I yearn to be back at FBV where the temps are in the mid 80’s!  I should have stayed longer!!!!  Getting there is easy enough – fly nonstop from east coast airports to Nassau, then connect with Cat Island Air or Sky Bahamas.  Or take a direct flight on Continental Airlines from Ft. Lauderdale or Miami.  (PS – there are no cats on Cat Island – it was named for a privateer by the name of Arthur Catt).

Fernandez Bay Village is the premier resort on Cat Island, and a wonderful choice for anyone seeking a peaceful, friendly, romantic beachfront retreat.   Arriving at FBV is like being welcomed by long lost cousins who own a fabulous beach side estate.  Read more
