Sail away.

Cruises haven’t really been my thing, perhaps on account of feeling claustrophobic at the slightest hint of confinement. But with a deal like this one from Caribbean Cruises, I may work on my issues and book a fast getaway. For $299 and with very limited departure dates (April 24th and May 3rd only, with destinations determined by when you leave), this trip would be perfect if you have the time off and are alright with an itinerary planned for you. Choose from Jamaica and Grand Cayman on the 24th, or Turks & Caicos and the Bahamas on the 3rd, with all cruises departing from Miami.

Come on pretty mama…

Without trying to sound like a broken record, I miss the heat. I’ve mentioned my love for warm weather here and here, and while I try to remain optimistic that winter won’t be that bad this year, it’s hard to do so when an arctic chill hits you in the face before 7 in the morning. Brr. 

This is what bliss looks like.

This is what bliss looks like.

The folks at CheapCaribbean.com must sympathize with winter whiners like myself, because they’ve drastically slashed prices on trips to the Bahamas starting in early January through June 23rd. Bookings must be made by March 3rd to land the package, which includes airfare, four nights at the Wyndham Nassau Resort and Crystal Palace Casino in a guaranteed ocean view room, and a $100 resort credit for food and beverage, all for around $500-$600, depending on your departure city. Be sure to include promotional code BAH300SPR for $300 in instant savings.

With access to golf, beautiful beaches, a Las Vegas-style casino, and 8 restaurants and bars, there’s an abundance of things for you to do, no matter what your age and preference of activities. And with average winter temperatures of 70-80°F, it’s the perfect debut my new favorite dress on for size.
