Caribbean Islands – Bon-Bon Voyage

Why We Love Turks and Caicos

BonBon June 13, 2018 19 Comments

We spent our 2018 Spring Break on the beautiful island of Providenciales, Turks and Caicos. We all fell in love with it and would definitely recommended it as a place to visit on your next Caribbean getaway.

Turks and Caicos is a destination for everyone, from honeymooners who want to just chill by the beach and to families with young kids who want some action-pack days (with some mommy and daddy time in between if you’re lucky to have a kid’s club). This island offers something special for all the ages.

Here are few things we love about Turks and Caicos.

A tiny Island of two nations – St. Marteen/ St. Martin

BonBon June 24, 2017 17 Comments

St. Marteen/ St. Martin is a unique island in the Netherlands Antilles in the Caribbean. The island is shared with the Dutch side in the South and the French side in the North. We got a last minute opportunity to stay on this beautiful island for a week recently. My hubby got given short notice of a business trip to the island and the rest of us jumped at the chance of going too. It was one of those trips where you have nothing planned and no agenda but have an amazing time and get to see a lot of new things. You know, sometimes unplanned adventures can be some of the best ones.

The island is no doubt a perfect place for families with kids. We love destinations that have gorgeous resorts but also have tons of things to see and do outside the resort. We travel to see new things/ places but bottom line we wanted to introduce the kids to a new culture, try new food, make new friends and experience a different way of life. So, we decided to stay 3 nights on the Dutch side and 3 nights on the French side to see what both sides can offer.

Puerto Rico, Your All-Star Island

It took 11 years since we moved to the US for my husband and me to visit this island. It used to be on the top of our US places to visit list but since there are so many islands in the Caribbean to visit we thought… Puerto Rico can wait. Oh boy… little did we know that we were missing so much and if we had known better then we have flown there the moment we had the chance.

I am from the Philippines, a beautiful tropical island while my husband originates from Cape Town, one of the most charming cities on earth so you should figure out that yes, we would know what a perfect travel destination looks like. In that regard, we have to say that yes… Puerto Rico definitely counts as one…
