Here’s an update on the status of the various islands that Sandals resorts operates on:
Jamaica
Has had only one confirmed case
There was one case that was recorded, but was not confirmed to be locally transmitted. The patient has been cured and there has been no known spread of the virus.
That same individual has already recovered and nothing since has been reported. As of February 3, CDC has added Jamaica to the list of Zika affected countries.
Saint Lucia
No Zika Virus Cases have been reported.
Bahamas
No Zika Virus Cases have been reported.
Barbados
As of February 3, there have only been 3 confirmed locally transmitted Zika Virus Cases.
Turks & Caicos
No Zika Virus Cases have been reported.
Antigua
No Zika Virus Cases have been reported.
Grenada
No Zika Virus Cases have been reported.
Of course things can change, but as of February 17, 2016 there does not appear to be a tremendous amount of concern for the islands where Sandals exists – but precautionary insect repellent is always advised.

Romantic Escape to Keep The Sparks Bright in a Relationship
Anyone married for more than a few years know it takes effort to keep the spark in a relationship. It takes more than a bottle of Viagra and a bathtub on the Veranda (although a tub on the Veranda doesn’t hurt!). Sometimes a romantic getaway is just what the Dr ordered.
The only thing missing in that photo is YOU
As winter gives way to spring the wedding season nears- so many people choose to wed in the months from May through September. But it’s not only wedding season, it’s also anniversary season- and if you haven’t gotten the chance to celebrate lately, make this the year. Life goes so quickly….
Many couples will book travel to help keep the fire burning bright in their relationship. Travel creates new experiences which can help a relationship stay fresh and alive. Consider the memories that can be made during
a candlelight dinner for 2 on the beach
a couples massage administered in a world class spa
breakfast on the balcony of a gorgeously appointed room with a view of the sea
a long weekend at a 5 star resort in wine country-or in a quiet locale with charm and grace
Some top destination ideas include-
3-5 Days & Modest Budget
Las Vegas
Riviera Maya in Mexico
Negril in Jamaica
Punta Cana in Dominican Republic
5-8 Days & Moderate Budget
Bermuda
Bahamas
Antigua
Virgin Islands
Caribbean Cruise
8-14 Days and Robust Budget
Hawaii & Island Hopping
Tahiti and South Pacific
Mediterranean Cruise
Tour Italy
European River Cruise
You work hard, and that hard work needs to be rewarded. Sometimes that means taking the family to an event, sometimes it’s taking a snooze in a hammock on a warm summer’s day, and sometimes it means reconnecting with your best friend – your spouse – and there is no better place for that than the places that EZTravelpad specializes in helping you enjoy!

European River Cruises Offer Europe from a Seldom seen Perspective
You may have never heard of a European River Cruise, or it may be on your bucket list. You may have cruised the Danube or Rhine, or may know someone who has. In any case, if it’s not yet on your radar, it soon will be. As U.S. Baby Boomers see their portfolios recover from the Great Recession – and enter retirement with an energy and youthful exhuberance not seen before – with a desire to see the world, and the means to make it happen, what is on their bucket list?
As more mature couples fall in love and marry, what are they looking for in a Honeymoon? Beaches and a tropical paradise are great when you are young but at a certain point- for many, the desire for a little something different emerges…
River Cruises Top Bucket List for Many
Check out this short video to give you a sense of what this travel niche offers

For a Destination Wedding at Florida’s Sunset Capital it’s Loews Don CeSar Beach Resort
Don CeSar Beach Resort – a Loews Hotel in St Pete Beach is a perfect spot for a U.S. based Destination Wedding. Stately, Classy, Gorgeous, and with a first class spa, this is a wonderful choice for discriminating couples interested in tying the knot beachside…
If coming in with a low budget is something that you want to accomplish for your Destination Wedding then this might not be the first choice, but compared to other more modest resorts in the area Don CeSar is surprisingly affordable.
Your Destination Wedding is in Good Hands
When putting together a destination wedding there are a few things to think about- location & reputation, capabilities and quality. Don CeSar has you covered, with 3 wedding coordinators on staff preparing to host over 400 weddings this year, rest assured that you are in good hands. If the service and attention to detail is anything like I experienced there recently I couldn’t be anymore comfortable in suggesting this as a great spot to tie the knot.
Offering exemplary service at every turn, you will not be disappointed by the staff, by the facilities, or by the dining options….
Flatbread topped with shredded island chicken, black bean spread & vegetables – Potato & plantain chips served with traditional guacamole and pineapple guacamole – Yum!
For some people a grilled chicken breast over a rice pilaf is just fine- others require something a bit more interesting. A more interesting menu is what you will find at Don CeSar, but is doesn’t stop there. The spa features 16 treatment rooms as well as a private deck overlooking the gulf – oh, and it smells like heaven when you walk through the door of the spa! Body toning water aerobics and beach yoga are complimentary for all guests.
Beach Resort = Beach + Pools
Beachside pools offer full service including complimentary refreshments (Italian ice, frozen grape kabobs, smoothies, chilled towels , etc) plus a full menu of activities include volleyball, beachball dodgeball, cannonball contest, and lots & lots of pool pampering are all in store for you if you stay for a few days.
Putting a Price on Service
How can you put a price on service? It’s the little things that mean so much – like the general manager stopping to have a chat – or walking into a restroom that smells of mint and eucalyptus – or being greeted by smiles from all the staff….lots and lots of staff can you put a price on that? Would you want your wedding celebration to be anywhere that offered less?
view of Don Cesar from beachside – looking great from every angle
My reason for stopping into Don CeSar was to find a Destination Wedding and Honeymoon resort located in Florida that I could feel good about recommending. I found it. So if a Florida based Honeymoon or Destination Wedding is something that you want, let EZTravelpad help guide you there – or wherever else your heart desires. After all, it’s your special day – but it’s not your responsibility to plan it all.
I just read an interesting article by Bruce Hodge of Goway Travel about some predictions for what travel and tourism will be like 35 years from now- quite different, no doubt. Think back 40 years ago- no Disney World….Cruise ships were rare, and strictly for the well-heeled – as was going on Safari. Flying overseas was also for the wealthy. All-inclusive resorts were very, very rare. Touring meant spending endless hours on buses with rigid schedules and limited photo opps. Sailing to Antarctica was strictly for the most adventurous scientist – now it is widely available for the leisure traveler!
So what predictions were made? here are a few beauties which may, or may not become a reality
High-Tech Ceramic Fuselage on planes could make plane transparent for better passenger viewing
Space Tourism offering both orbital and sub-orbital flights
High Speed Rail (I think this guy isn’t from the U.S.) becomes mainstream
Airship Hotels will become the new cruise ship offering flights low and slow with breathtaking views
Space Hotels (ok, thinking probably not the Super 8 chain)
Beaches and Resorts you know today may need to relocate to higher ground due to rising sea levels
China will be #1 destination & there will be more Chinese tourists worldwide than any other nationality
Book Years in Advance for Top Tourism Sites and Monuments (due to increased population growth – very likely)
Wilderness and Wildlife areas of today largely gone – several huge managed areas available to get back to nature
Small Ship and Boutique Cruises to Exotic locations much more common
Virtual Tourism has arrived and you can simulate most any experience
Do I believe that all of these predictions will materialize? Probably not, but many most likely will due to factors such as global climate change and global population growth. Many are inevitable, and as the global economy expands, once poor and remote countries will no longer remain so. Spreading Democracy will mean fewer wars and fewer countries that are inaccessible. Could you have imagined vacationing in Russia or China or Vietnam in 1970? Oh, you will be vacationing in Cuba and Iraq in 2050 – most likely LONG before that!
What does this mean to you? Hang on for the ride! If you want to see The Great Migration in East Africa
or experience certain glaciers you better plan to go soon because 40 years from now they may be a fading memory…
Oh, and the last prediction was for travel agents. They WILL still be around, but may be referred to as “Lifestyle Managers” – I like that…. see you in 2050, when EZTravelpad will still be “Your friends….in the travel business”
