Longing for a Retreat like this…


I am longing for this, all of it…

Yes, yes, yes!




In case you’re wondering where this magical place is. It’s the Sandals Royal Plantation in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. It’s a secluded spot that promises a blissful experience in its refined setting.  It is said that at this hotel:
Your butler gives you your own cell phone should you need him at anytime. Imagine that! I  really need a vacation! Thanks for all the birthday wishes for Baby Z. I had a simple celebration for him on Saturday(‘I’ll share a few pics) Today is the first day of Spring-hurray! Have a lovely Monday everyone. XX

    Well after all the stress of building, selling and moving that you have just gone through {all in lightening speed, too, no less!} I reckon you deserve a holiday like that. Or at least a couple of sunny days somewhere wonderful, even if it is just at home.

    The top image is dreamy!

    Moving is so much work I can imagine you are longing for a relaxing moment or two. Looks like you're missing home a little :)
    A butler? Now THAT sounds divine.
