Great video. Could you do one on Caribbean destinations you mention less frequently for example Barbados, St Lucia, Turks or Grenada? A Jamaican one would also be lovely. Many thanks!
Thank you, Vanessa. I love this video. I vote for Jamaica next. Please dont fear telling us more about your picks $500 a night and up. Life can be stressful so we also want some luxury to melt it away. My favorites are always the adults only all inclusives ❤.
I love this!! I’m so interested in some of the other smaller islands for this! Aruba, st lucia, Antigua, Barbados. I’m getting more and more into islands that aren’t t asked about as much. Aruba! Antigua!Tortola! St Martin! Love your channel!!!
Hi Dawn! Love the enthusiasm 😊 Thank you so much for the suggestions. I’ll also be adding Island guides with our personal footage for each of these so I’m so glad you mentioned them 👍
Thank you for a very informative video and all the time and effort you put into this. I would like a similar video for Aruba, Antigua, Barbados and Grenada.
I wouldnt mind this turning into a series if you dont Vanessa! 😅 Loved this video and your suggestions..and as oer request, may I suggest Mexico next? That's apparently turned into one of my favorite places to travel outside of the US since I've been there the most and it's a safe choice for me. Lol
Thank you for another great video and including all the different types of travelers. My pick for a similar video would be Barbados 🇧🇧 and Grenada 🇬🇩.ty!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Vanessa! I used to go on many Royal Caribbean cruises that stopped at the DR but it was different back then. Going to have to check out some of these resorts. Next month for me is Royal’s Allure of the Seas in two-story loft suite, all inclusive. Thank you for all your hard work!❤🛳️✈️
@@Passport_Pages thanks Vanessa. I will definitely report back but I’ve done this one already three times and it’s so amazing! It’s a must do bucket list for you.
Good info. DR experiences can def vary. 1st visit was fun (visited Santo Domingo) but the resort was on the lower side of meh. Boca Chica I think. Last visit was really nice HR in Punta Cana. So many pools and bars. Thanks for the info. 😊
@@Passport_Pages Don’t let a few complainers ruin your video scope. Our kids are grown and we don’t see ourselves drinking rum with SpongeBob SquarePants 😆. We prefer a little more luxury and peaceful sand/surf/palm tree, or pool, scene. Thanks again for putting in the work!
I love your chanel. Your reccomendations appear to be well researched and I trust your judgement. I'd like to see more videos from Europe. Best of Europe, and particularly France, Greece and Italy.
As always..... Great review on the DR Vanessa.....defently a beautiful island and I would be torn with so many great resorts if I had to pick....not an easy job sometimes....lol Would love to see more on jamaca between negril , Ocho Rios , and montego bay...having the hardest time picking between them.... Thanks so much Vanessa and happy travels
Love your videos, Vanessa!! Could you please do the same for Mexico ... Thank you. We want to escape the cold weather from Midwest USA next December. Thank you again 💓
@Passport_Pages I enjoy all of your content. You are so well versed, traveled, and researched. So thank you!!! Also I found and fell in love with Karisma/El Dorado resorts because of a best food video you did years ago!
Thanks Vanessa. I thoroughly enjoy your videos including this one. I go by your recommendations as you have a non bias opinion. I was trying to find a video that you have that focuses on a budget friendly, secluded, a beautiful beach, natural setting, all inclusive in the Caribbean. We love the samana area and looking at trying something a little different. Do you have a video that checks most of these boxes off? Thanks so much 😊
Thank you so much Mark! Such a nice compliment 🙏 I don’t yet but that’s definitely a video I can make in the future and hopefully give you several good options 😊
Hi Vanessa, always enjoy your videos and it helped us with choosing a resort last year. We are thinking of either Cancun or Punta Cana for a trip in December. We are looking for an all inclusive resort with great restaurants on the property. Open to any cuisine, just looking for good quality. Any suggestions? thank you and keep up the good work.
Thank you for the information. I and my family and extended family have been many times to the DR at different all-inclusives and the one thing that makes me hesitate to go back is that we often got sick there, including needing hospitalization for very bad stomach bugs. We are extremely careful to only use bottled water, even to brush our teeth and we got sick anyway. Many of my friends got sick in that country also. That has never happened to us in Mexico. Have you noticed more comments on stomach bugs in the DR versus other countries?
How about the same style review for Jamaica & Mexico ? Looking to go to Hilton La Romana in May 2024. Lots of good Scuba options and catamaran trips to Isla Saona. Any thoughts?
I didn’t like Hilton La Romana. BUT, it was at the end of COVID. was so so boring and food was just ok. Just be aware that not all of the building have elevators. I didn’t realize that and ended up on the second floor. I have balance issues - going up was fine but coming down the stairs was scary for me.
Ugh. It’s so tiring when people criticise when they’re just jealous. I’ll never be able to afford an Aman but still REALLY would love to hear about luxury properties so please include more going forward. Those who aren’t interested can just skip ahead surely
Thanks as always Vanessa, i am planning a birthday trip with hubby to punta cana for next year, the 2 you mentioned in the luxury category aren't all-inclusive, can you pls suggest a couple of luxury all-inclusive resort? Thanks 😊
Hi! 👋Thank you for watching as always 😊 Finest Punta Cana is actually a very underrated all inclusive. Currently, that’d be where I’d pick. I’ll keep you updated though
Hi! You’re very welcome! You can book directly on the resort websites, same easy checkout process, just choose 1 guest. Hope you have a great time at whichever property you choose 😊
Great breakdown and review!!! You answered several questions I had with this video!!! Thanks!!! Yet, I’ve heard you mention on several occasions in various videos that beach chairs at certain resorts can become lacking unless you grab one early, Permission to rant??? ….if I’m spending that kind of money on a vacation and I have to finagle a beach chair…. I will turn into the biggest damn “ugly American” in history!!!! Lack of beach chairs should never be an issue at decent resorts….just sayin’
Great video. Could you do one on Caribbean destinations you mention less frequently for example Barbados, St Lucia, Turks or Grenada? A Jamaican one would also be lovely. Many thanks!

Thank you Debbie-Ann!! Glad you liked it 😊 Trying something different. Always appreciate your support and lovely comments
I would love to see a similar video on St Lucia and Aruba
I enjoyed this video and my suggestion is to do the same (i.e. theme based ) for Mexico.

I took my teen daughter to Dreams onyx back when it was the Now Onyx. She is 21 and says she would go back. Another family option.
I would love one of these for st lucia and puerto Vallarta!
Thank you Dawn!

Mexico , but perhaps by region for example Playa Mujeres, Puerto Moreles, etc.
Information like this is great. Thanks. I would like to hear about Costa Rica.
Thank you so much! Glad it helped 😊 Nice to see a vote for Costa Rica 👍
Love this video. I vote for Jamaica next please
Thank you Dawn! 😊
Great video. Like the different categories, maybe best party or group destination too for next one?
Thank you so much! 😊
Great video! I would love to see a video focusing on Cozumel all inclusive resorts. Cozumel is amazing but I don't hear much about the AI resorts.
Great suggestion!
Thank you Vanessa for another wonderful video. My vote goes to Jamaica 😊
Thank you so much Amey! ☺️
Love your videos, Vanessa!! Could you please do the same for Mexico ... Thank you. We want to escape the cold weather from Midwest USA next December. Thank you again 💓

Really enjoy your videos and tnis ia a GREAT idea. My vote is Antigua.
Thank you so much! So grateful you enjoy the new type of video 😊
I liked your video! Wish you could recommend some more budget friendly couple / romantic resorts. Secrets & Hyatt are pricey…..
I really liked this video! Wondering if you could do one in Playa Del Carmen / Cancun. Also, can you put links in your descriptions?
Thank you so much!
Love your videos! My vote is for Mexico
Thank you!! 😊
Great work, Vanessa.
Will you review St. Lucia, Turks & Caicos, France, Italy, Greece, Malta…

Cancun Mexico
Royalton Bavaro was decent as well.
Barbados adult resort with good entertainment .
Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands
Can you do this for Jamaica, please?
How about one for either up and coming and or off the beaten path type that may not be as popular or busy!
I would you do one on Jamaica please
Ugh. It’s so tiring when people criticise when they’re just jealous. I’ll never be able to afford an Aman but still REALLY would love to hear about luxury properties so please include more going forward. Those who aren’t interested can just skip ahead surely

Aruba
Puerto Vallarta
Thanks Vanessa I find your videos very helpful! I'd vote for Jamaica or Mayan Riviera next
Thank you so much! Glad you find them helpful and thank you for the suggestions 🙏😊
Cuba might be a little hard, but can you suggest something for cuba?
Thanks as always Vanessa, i am planning a birthday trip with hubby to punta cana for next year, the 2 you mentioned in the luxury category aren't all-inclusive, can you pls suggest a couple of luxury all-inclusive resort? Thanks 😊
Hi! 👋Thank you for watching as always 😊 Finest Punta Cana is actually a very underrated all inclusive. Currently, that’d be where I’d pick. I’ll keep you updated though
@@Passport_Pages oh really, I was thinking hyatt zilara, excellence el carmen or secrets cap cana. Which of these would you recommend?
I think they're all very strong options. Probably can't go wrong with any of them 👍🏼
@@Passport_Pagesbrilliant thanks a bunch, keep the videos coming. My vote for your next review will be Jamaica or Cancun. Stay blessed x
Thank you! You as well 🙏
Thank you!! What is the best way to book as a solo traveler?

Please review Curacao?
I have in several review videos but not a dedicated one. Let me know if that’s your preference 😊
At hyatt ziva. Is $550 night per person?
Riviera maya
Can you do something for Sousa?
Turks
Great breakdown and review!!! You answered several questions I had with this video!!! Thanks!!!
Yet, I’ve heard you mention on several occasions in various videos that beach chairs at certain resorts can become lacking unless you grab one early, Permission to rant???
….if I’m spending that kind of money on a vacation and I have to finagle a beach chair…. I will turn into the biggest damn “ugly American” in history!!!! Lack of beach chairs should never be an issue at decent resorts….just sayin’
Thank you so much for sharing! I hear ya!! 😄 And I love hearing when I answer my viewers’ questions. Makes me happy 😊
