Meet Carrie

Your Tropical Travel Expert

“I have been in the travel business since 2000. I have a true passion for travel and helping others plan the vacation of their dreams. I found my passion to be the ‘Beach Destinations’ and my travel niche are the Caribbean islands, Mexico, and Hawaii. I have been fortunate enough to travel all over the Caribbean many times (Jamaica, Turks and Caicos, Punta Cana, La Romana, Aruba, Bahamas, Tortola, St. Thomas, and Antiqua. I have been to Mexico countless times visiting Cancun, Riviera Maya, Puerto Vallarta, Cozumel, Cabo San Lucas, and Huatulco. I have a special place in my heart for the islands of Hawaii. I recently spent time in Maui and Kauai and again was blown away by the beauty of these islands.

Years ago, I started booking destinations weddings and honeymoons. I quickly realized this was a special area of expertise. Especially after I had agents ask me to book their clients destination weddings because they didn’t do them. I love to help couples plan their wedding or honeymoon.

With every reservation that I make, I give special attention to exactly what my clients are looking for and what is important to them. Excellent beach? Activities? Culture? Relaxation? I am willing to go above and beyond for my clients and my reviews reflect that desire.

If you are looking for a fun upbeat expert with decades of travel and training – I’m your gal!”

What Clients Say

★★★★★ 5/5

"Carrie is the best travel agent possible. She has helped plan three trips for us now and each one was expertly done. We couldn’t be happier with her services!"

"Carrie is always prompt with organizing our trips, she listens to our wants and patiently searches for the right flight departures and hotels for us. She has always been helpful with her knowledge of our destinations to ensure we have the best experiences in that location, such as things to do , sight seeing and eating establishments."

"Carrie always delivers the best prices and service. I have booked multiple trips with her and each time she is quick to respond, finds the best prices and is so easy to work with! She does all the work so we can have all the fun!"

"Carrie was great to work with! She is the first travel agent we have used, and are glad we did. It was wonderful having all our papers together and resting assured that everything was taken care of. We planned a wedding with our trip, and Carrie was the go-to for all our guests. Carrie was quick to respond to all emails and calls, and even helped clear things up with the resort before and after our trip."

Carrie was amazingly helpful to us, especially after we returned home. We had issues with the resort wanting to charge us for things that they originally said we had a credit for. Carrie handled it all for us and saved us the stress! The whole trip was phenomenal, I'd book with Carrie again in a heartbeat!

Working with Carrie was wonderful, our past two vacations have been set up through her and she always provides so many great options and insight

Carrie was excellent to work with. We had a large group going and needed a location change last minute and she was happy to assist. We were happy with our resort and the transportation she arranged. I would highly recommend Carrie.
