Secrets Tulum

Updated: May 16, 2024 Would you stay at an all-inclusive resort that wasn’t RIGHT on the beach? I asked this question in our Instagram stories and 99% of people said they wouldn’t. Initially, I was thinking the same thing. BUT even though Secrets Tulum is located in the jungles of Tulum, guests have full access […]

Katie Ellickson at Beaches Turks and Caicos

The beach was incredible, and the grounds were gorgeous! The resort is like 4 all-inclusive in one and […]

Katie Ellickson in Secrets Los Cabos

I never thought I’d visit the west coast of Mexico. I was never interested in visiting Cabo or Puerto Vallarta because I am such a “white sand, turqouise water” person & I knew the beaches there are more of a golden sand with blue water. But, after booking tickets to see my favorite band of […]

Majestic Punta Cana

In 2014, a spur of the moment choice to book an all-inclusive vacation to the Caribbean with one of my co-workers became a pivotal point in my life. It’s when I fell in love with all-inclusive resorts, when I fell in love with the Caribbean, found a best friend (the other couple we went with) […]

Katie Ellickson at Unico 2087

Updated: May 20 If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my 8 years as a travel agent, it’s that I’m very picky when it comes to resorts. I want it all—amazing food & drinks with great service and on an incredible beach.  In July 2023, I had the opportunity to stay at Unico 2087 in […]

"Katie was absolutely amazing to work with and helped us plan an unforgettable 10 year Anniversary trip to Aruba!

When booking Katie gave us a range of locations/options and was very invested in what we wanted out of this trip!  Katie was so attentive throughout planning, always responded to emails, helped with excursions and checked in throughout the whole process! I'm already thinking of where I want to go next and hands down will be contacting Katie when I'm ready to plan! Thank you for such an amazing experience and helping us create unforgettable memories!"

"We used Heart of the Caribbean to book our honeymoon in Jamaica. It was the BEST thing we could have done!

Katie made everything so easy! They sent us reminders about checking in for our flights, a checklist of things to bring, helpful tips for our first time traveling there and a little gift to use while on vacation. She was always available to help us! When our flights were delayed everyone in the terminal was on their phones trying to figure out connecting flights and she did ALL of that work for us!!"

"Katie was so helpful in planning our honeymoon to Costa Rica! 

This was my first time flying and going on an international trip, but she made the process easy by doing all the booking. Once our trip was planned out, she sent us a step-by-step itinerary for each day of our trip, as well as copies of all our reservations and flights. Best of all, it was FREE. I highly recommend working with Katie to help plan your next trip. We had an amazing honeymoon and Katie helped make it happen!
