Hi, I'm John and I'm Your All-Inclusive Resort & Cruise Vacation Expert

After years in IT of being always on call and never really unplugged, I took my first cruise through the Caribbean and realized how good it felt to be completely present, not thinking about work at all. That trip showed me people need more than a quick getaway; they need a real reset. So I left IT and started Tropical Getaways to help others experience that same feeling.
Now I design stress‑free cruise and all‑inclusive resort vacations, taking the research and logistics off your plate so your only job is to enjoy the trip. I've sailed 20+ cruises and visited 25+ resorts, so when I make a recommendation, it comes from experience and not a brochure.

Who I’m a great fit forou’re a couple, family, or small group ready to invest at least $3,500 in a well‑planned vacation. You’re busy, overwhelmed by options, and would rather have one expert narrow it down than spend hours comparing ships, resorts, and reviews. You appreciate straightforward advice and don’t need hand‑holding every minute, just a trusted pro guiding the big decisions.
Who I’m not the right fit forIf you’re only chasing the absolute rock‑bottom price, want to strip everything down to shared transfers and the cheapest rooms, or you’re mainly shopping agents to see who can beat an online deal by a few dollars, I’m probably not your person. I focus on 7‑night cruises and 5‑plus‑night all‑inclusive stays that balance value, comfort, and a low‑stress planning experience

Honeymoon Travel FAQ

  • That depends on the kind of experience you want. A cruise is great for couples who want variety, ocean views, and multiple destinations, while an all-inclusive resort is often better for couples who want privacy, ease, and one beautiful place to settle into.

  • The earlier, the better — especially if you want the best room choices, ideal dates, or a more in-demand resort or sailing. Honeymoon trips often benefit from planning well in advance because the most romantic room categories tend to go first.

  • For many couples, yes. Adults-only resorts usually offer a quieter atmosphere, a more romantic setting, and amenities that are designed more intentionally for couples.

  • Usually, yes. For a honeymoon, having private outdoor space can make the trip feel more special, especially for sail-aways, room service breakfasts, and quiet time together.

  • Often yes. Travel advisors with preferred partner status have access to resort credits and room upgrades — perks that simply aren't available when booking on your own. But the biggest perk is the peace of mind that comes from having an expert handle every detail.

  • Not at all. John works with travelers all over the country — entirely online and by phone. You don't need to be in the same city to get expert guidance, personalized recommendations, and access to exclusive perks. If you have a Wi-Fi connection and a vacation in mind, we can work together.

  • No. All of the planning can be handled remotely, which makes the process simple and stress-free wherever you are!

  • I make it easy. We'll start with a quick conversation about what kind of honeymoon experience you want, your timing, and your general budget. From there, the best-fit cruise or resort options can be narrowed down without the overwhelm.

What My Clients Say

Here’s what real travelers have to say about planning their all‑inclusive resort and cruise vacations with me.

cruise ship

We have booked two cruises with John now. Both experiences were great. He provides lots of helpful information and we have had no problems whatsoever. Definitely recommend his services!

Laura H.

champagne

We were seeking an all-inclusive vacation for my wife, our three daughters (ages 21, 18, and 11), and myself. It was essential to find a destination that offered something for everyone to enjoy. After sharing our requirements with John, he took the time to truly listen—and he absolutely delivered! This was our daughters’ first trip abroad, so we wanted everything to go as seamlessly as possible. From the flights to the ground transportation and the incredible resort, every detail was flawlessly executed. If you’re in search of a five-star travel agent, look no further than John. He’s simply the best!

Eddie K.

John was so helpful in booking our large group on a cruise and making sure we had rooms nearby with all amenities we needed. He was also super helpful in answering all of our first-time cruiser questions and helping us make decisions that worked for our group. We had a great vacation thanks to his help in planning ahead!

Kathryn J.

We received the most professional presentation of options before booking, and we scheduled with ease. We had a few travel glitches along the way, and our agent John assisted us more than we could have imagined. We will definitely be using him again!
