Fall Break Getaway- You Deserve a Break!
School may have just started in our area, but Fall Break is right around the corner! Do you have plans? Many of us will have the weekend of Oct 11th to 14th off on the school calendar and it is an excellent long weekend to take a weekend getaway. Here are a few of my favorite options to fill that weekend!
All-Inclusive Resorts
I am ALL about the all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean. These resorts are ideal when you simply want to get away and be pampered. Located throughout the Caribbean, many of these islands have direct flight options from the Philadelphia area. Jamaica, Turks and Caicos, the Dominican Republic, and even Mexico are no more than 3-4 hours away. You can take an early morning flight and be on the beach sipping your drink by 1 pm! Many resorts offer 24-hour room service, top-shelf liquors, gourmet dining, nightly entertainment, and beautiful beaches and ocean. You can choose from adult-only to family-friendly resorts! With so many all-inclusive resorts to choose from, I can help you narrow down the resort to the one perfect for your needs. My favorite brands are Sandals and Beaches, Hard Rock Resorts, and Playa Resorts. These three brands have amazing customer-focused service, excellent food options, and amazing resort facilities! They are among the top brands in the industry and for good reason!
3-Night Cruise
If you want to sail away from it all, a 3-night cruise is the perfect way to fill your weekend. My two favorite cruise lines with dedicated weekend cruises are Disney Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean. These family-friendly cruises are perfect for the family who doesn’t like to sit around on the beach all day. They offer endless entertainment, amazing food, stops at their private islands in The Bahamas, and ocean views that will stay with you even after you go home!
These cruise lines are sailing two of their newest ships as well! Disney Cruise Line’s Wish and Royal Caribbean’s Utopia of the Seas both sail out of Port Canaveral, which is a short 90-minute drive from Orlando’s International Airport. As a bonus, Disney’s Wish will be celebrating Halloween on the High Seas, which is an excellent way to celebrate Halloween Disney-style with costume nights (for kids and adults) special trick-or-treating, and more! I do advise my clients to fly in the night before a cruise in case of a flight delay. So this weekend getaway will start Thursday night and you’ll be back home on Monday!
Universal Orlando Resort - Halloween Horror Nights
I love Universal Orlando’s theme parks! It’s a great weekend destination and during the fall they pull out all the stops for Halloween Horror Nights. If you’re a fan of haunted houses and jump
