Spring Break in Nassau – Baha Bay at Baha Mar
Water coasters, dueling slides, a not so lazy river, and a surf simulator...Baha Bay at Baha Mar had us at water coasters!

Spring Break in Nassau – Baha Mar
If South Beach and Las Vegas had a baby, it would look a lot like Baha Mar. The resort complex is colorful, super glam, and located on a pristine beach. I seriously could not love it more!

The… Continue reading Norwegian Getaway and NCL Peace of Mind
Dorian… and How You Can Help!
No doubt you've seen the destruction Hurricane Dorian inflicted upon the northern Bahamas. For days, we watched him crawl over the Abacos then stall over Grand Bahama. Growing up in Nassau, hurricanes meant days of preparation for a few hours of really bad weather. Now, they are catastrophic events with far-reaching consequences. The following images… Continue reading Dorian… and How You Can Help!

It's become a tradition that the kids spend the first four weeks of summer with my parents and brother in Nassau. It's a win all around. Stinky and Blinky get extra special bonding time with my family, it's a fully immersive experience in my culture, and the DH and I get to reconnect as a… Continue reading Clifton Heritage National Park, New Providence, Bahamas
Riu Site Inspection
Before flying out last Monday, I had the opportunity to inspect Riu, an adult-only, all-inclusive resort in Nassau, which has just completed a major renovation. The Property Manager could not stop gushing about the changes and was particularly fond of hardwood floors throughout the rooms. I have to agree with her… the updates are stunning… Continue reading Riu Site Inspection

Offering a collection… Continue reading BahaMar Site Inspection
