Why Couples Need To Take A Vacation Together
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
12/16/21 • 10 min
Think back to when you first started dating, it was Hot and Spicy all the time. You couldn't keep your hands off each other, the sparks were flying. You only had eyes for one another and no one else, you waited in anticipation for the phone calls so you could spend endless hours tying of the phone. Some of you might be high school or college sweethearts. Years have passed and you’re married now with kids, working 60-80 hrs a week, stressed out.
Have you put your love life on the back burner taking care of home, your family, caring for aging parents maybe?
We all know life happens and it gets hectic. Guess what your kids will grow up and move out the house starting their own lives just like we all did. It will be just the two of you like before.
You need time away to destress and rekindle the fire isn’t out you get it roaring all over again. Start out with baby steps and implement the date nights back into your life simple as going out to dinner once a week, go see a movie, or head out for a drink and listen to some good music.
Let me paint the picture for you think about arriving at your designated location getting drinks upon arrival at the resort. Get whisked away to your oceanfront suite, you can sit out on your balcony sipping a glass of wine as the sunsets and wake up together watching the sunrise over a cup of coffee. How a couples massage at the spa, then enjoying a nice romantic dinner on the beach. You like the sound of that don’t you. You make your way back to your room and your butler has turned down the room for you with rose petals and champagne waiting.
Baby you’re thinking now with the wheels turning that you want the brown sugar moment again and kickstart that fire again. I see you fire starter. Listen up we’re always hosting group trips and we have our Couples St Lucia trip next year for Labor Day Weekend. Head over to our website www.jektravelsllc.com and click on the events tab. It will pull up all of our trips for you to view. Who knows that fire might be blazing once you leave St Lucia.
Now it the time to reclaim back what you thought you lost but didn't to keep your relationship thriving. Studies show that people who vacation more are less tense, less depressed and less overworked, which naturally leads to better relationships with friends, family and their partner.
Studies also show that couples who take breaks throughout the year to vacation and re-connect have a higher marriage satisfaction. So what are you waiting for the fire is lit, lets keep it burning?

Valentine's Weekend Getaway
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
10/03/23 • 8 min
Planning a romantic escape with your significant other. We'll discuss why taking time away together is essential for your relationship, how it can help you destress from the rigors of adulting, and why it's so important to recharge and regroup amidst life's challenges.
- Plan Ahead: Don't leave things to the last minute. Popular destinations get booked up fast, especially around Valentine's Day. Start planning well in advance to secure the best options.
- Budget Wisely: Set a budget and stick to it. You don't need to break the bank to have a memorable trip. There are plenty of affordable options that can still provide a fantastic experience.
- Personalize Your Trip: Tailor your getaway to your interests and preferences. Whether you're into adventure, relaxation, or cultural exploration, choose a destination and activities that resonate with both of you.
- Disconnect: While it's tempting to stay connected to work and social media, try to disconnect during your trip. Focus on each other and the experience, rather than being glued to your devices.

The Inception of JEK Travels
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
12/14/21 • 6 min
When people look at my travel agency today, many assume that it was easy to get started and clients were flocking at our doorsteps left and right booking trips.
That far from the truth, just like other entrepreneurs, it was sleepless nights, blood, sweat, and many tears. I even thought about quitting and giving up.
- I didn't have any clients
- No social media followers
- No goals setup yet
- No major capital for marketing or how to get my brand name out

So you can see where I'm going with this. The many trials and tribulations but I never gave up. I had my husband my number one motivator pushing me to keep going and of course my kids. Creating my travel agency is given me a peace of mind that I'm leaving a legacy behind for my kids and their kids and generations to come.
We are going on 10 years strong in the business and we couldn't have done it without all our amazing clients that keep coming back to book more trips. Especially after the 2020 with hardly no travel, everyone is ready to kick it in gear and start vacationing again.
If you're feeling overwhelmed with trying to book your vacation, take a look at some our blogs and visit our website and schedule a FREE consultation so we can chat. Don't like traveling solo join in one of our group trips.

Sandos Playacar Resort Review
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
12/31/21 • 13 min
Hello everyone, today we’re going to review the Sandos Playacar Resort. Now I have stayed at this resort on personal trips and on our hosted group trips. This is my favorite resort out of the three Sandos properties in Cancun. I love it because of the beach is so relaxing, you can sit out under the cabana and enjoy the view with your significant other drinking a refreshing beverage taking it all in.
This is a budget friendly resort that’s an excellent choice for family vacations, group trips, or a couples trip if you’re looking for a quick getaway. I love how each section is separate from each other with its own little amenities.
Sandos Playacar is an all inclusive resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. The beach resort sits on one of the most beautiful beaches in the Riviera Maya and guests enjoy direct beach access.
Spend your days swaying in hammocks beneath the palm trees in the beach area or enjoying an exotic cocktail by the swimming pools.
When it comes to food and drinks Sandos Playacar has an excellent choice of restaurants and bars offering international cuisine, gourmet dining, beach snack bars, buffets, swim up bars, and more.
Guests can enjoy mini golf courses, tennis, fitness center access, world-class spa, and much more. Another highlight of our all inclusive Playa del Carmen resort is the outstanding entertainment, from daily activities to spectacular nightly shows you will never get bored during your all inclusive vacation with Sandos.
Now Sandos Playacar is one of the few Playa del Carmen resorts with a brand-new water park, located just in front of the white sand beach with awesome ocean views the water park offers non-stop fun and adventure for everyone.
The resort has 9 restaurants on property with different options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with 24 hour room service. The good thing I like with the properties is that you will constantly be asked when you enter if you have any food allergies or restrictions. Its best beforehand when reserving to let the resort know of all restrictions and restaurant have a list clearly detailed of different food options.
Though it is known as the beautiful Caribbean vacation hotspot, Playa del Carmen has so much history and culture. Situated within the Riviera Maya, this wonderful place used to be home to a prominent Mayan community. The Mayan Culture lives on and is shown through breathtaking Mayan Ruins that are a must-see during your getaway.

What are you thankful for?
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
12/26/21 • 3 min
Merry Christmas to everyone we hope you're enjoying your day with your family and friends.
I want to ask What are you thankful for? We all know during the holidays some are not able to be with family and sometimes that's lonely for our elderly parents, siblings or friends.
This is the time to spend quality time with members of your family and cherish the time spent together as we all know when our kids leave our nest and start their lives sometimes we're not able to see them as much.
Our parents miss the phone calls and the pop up visits and its especially hard for the holidays and especially now with Covid. If you haven't spoken to your parents, or family members or friends pick up the phone and call them.
Life is too short and you don't want to end the year without calling or seeing your loved ones. You don't know how much joy it will be when the receiver of the phone call picks up and hears your voice.

When To Plan A Vacation
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
12/18/21 • 8 min
Show of hands, anyone else feeling that itch to travel, the need to escape this cold weather ASAP and dreaming of beaches and margaritas? Well this podcast won’t help the feeling, but it WILL give you some inspiration to think about when to plan a vacation.
Some people relish getting on the open road and driving from destination to destination on vacation. They enjoy the flexibility starting and stopping whenever they want to affords them. Time is not a factor – lots of extra time is padded in to accommodate possible traffic delays of the unexpected detour. For some, this is the only way to travel. For others, not so much. That’s what makes vacationing so fun.
Traveling isn’t entirely about tours, beach excursions, and history – it is also about meeting new people and forming connections. Some of the best moments in your trips will be when you meet with people after a long day of activity and talk about life. You’ll meet people from all over the world who are in search of the same thing as you, giving you an instant kinship. Hearing about the lives and people that wait for them back home will give you a feel for who they are outside of their sarong and open a view to what life is like in a different part of the world.
There are many reason to talk yourself out of traveling, but take a look at them... are they good ones? Time waits for no one and the world is ever changing. Beaches erode, the political environment changes – things may not be the same when you finally get around to doing it.
When is the best time to plan, if you have time we recommend at least 6 months to a year out or longer. This gives you time to make get the accommodations that you want based on availability at an affordable price. Also you can make flexible monthly payments till your vacation is paid off. You make a small deposit and pay your trip off 45 - 60 days or monthly payments before traveling depending on your trip details. This is great if you have a group of people traveling with you this gives them time to make payments over time especially they’re paying for different family members. Traveling during off season is cheaper, but if you select your dates out far enough in advance you can get some great rates.
Some of the things you get when working with a travel professional is.
- Customer advocacy:
- Expert guidance:
- Personalized service:
- Professional advice:
- Time:
- Unbiased information:
- Value:
- First-Hand Experience:
Look for a travel professional that is an expert in your chosen destination or type of travel.
Don’t wait. Go. Travel to the place you’ve always wanted to go or make your very firt foray outside of your comfort zone. See the world – you’ll be happy that you did
Well that’s all for today’s episode of Jetsetting with JEK Travels. I enjoyed speaking with each and everyone of you thank you for joining me. Make sur

Sandos Cancun Review
Jetsetting With JEK Travels
12/30/21 • 12 min
Hello everyone, today we’re going to review the Sandos Cancun Resort. Now I have stayed at this resort about 5 or 6 times over the course of 4 years. The first time we stayed here it was for 14 days, it was a work slash anniversary trip.
My husband was like this is to long to be away from home hint his baby. Listen she was taken care of by her grammy and we got the 6am FaceTime calls from her every morning and calls throughout the day. This was my number one resort at first of the Sandos properties because I'm a beach type of girl. Over the years the beach has eroded, but the resort is still nice and a great budget friendly option.
So let’s go ahead and dive into the Sandos Cancun property and like I stated on the last podcast Sandos has three properties in the Cancun area the Sandos Cancun, Sandos Eco Caracol and the Sandos Playacar. In my opinion the Sandos Cancun property is for couples looking for a romantic escape, groups that want to be close to the nightlife of downtown. Now we have seen children at the resort and its mostly the locals that come visit on their vacations. We have brought our daughter along on one of the trips, but she’s a pool girl and she doesn’t care about anything else other than being in water.
This resort is about a 20 minute ride from the airport. It’s close the the down area you can walk to the main road and catch the city bus to downtown for $1 it was that price the last time I was there or catch a cab for around $8.
The resort has daily activities happening day and night around the pool or on the beach to keep guests entertained throughout their stay. Music will be playing all around the resort for your enjoyment.
This is an all inclusive resort with 24hr room service, daily breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can basically eat all day if that is what you wish to do. If you like to have a sip or to the alcohol is flowing all day for you and they do offer non alcohol beverages also.
