Beaches Resorts – Giving Back through the Sandals Foundation #BeachesMoms

February 5, 2014 by Kathryn 45 Comments

Recently my boys and I went on an amazing trip to the Beaches Negril resort in Jamaica. With Beaches Resorts’ passion for providing the ultimate all-inclusive experience to visitors, we enjoyed plenty of relaxing and fun-filled moments on the resort. But we also had a chance to see the difference that the company makes to the community through its philanthropic arm, the Sandals Foundation, and it was an experience that left me and my boys more touched than I could have expected.

Zackary and Benjamin had lots of fun examining the tables full of presents when we arrived!

We travelled to the local Mount Airy School in the Mocho Mountains for the annual Sandals Foundation Christmas Party and to make the experience even more memorable, we had been given the opportunity to bring a wrapped gift to give to one of the schoolchildren at the party. I loved the idea of showing my boys how rewarding generosity could be, so I intentionally chose gifts that I knew each of them would love to have for themselves: Benjamin’s gift was a soft and cuddly teddy bear and Zackary’s was a LEGO set. I even brought a large Hello Kitty doll to give away myself and we were bursting with excitement when we arrived.

Beaches Resorts – An Unforgettable Adventure for Adults #BeachesMoms

January 23, 2014 by Kathryn 60 Comments

I’ve mentioned that my boys are always in my mind when planning a vacation, but of course, I want to have fun too! So while activities for kids may be a big part of my consideration when travelling, I also want plenty of adult entertainment and activities. And on my family’s recent trip to Beaches Negril in beautiful Jamaica, I experienced the full scope of the more mature activities that the resort has to offer.

The beautiful Beaches Negril pool is always a favourite place for adults to relax!

Relax at the Spa

The luxurious Red Lane Spa is a haven for any parent that just needs to unwind. Featuring a full range of spa services including massages, facials, manicures, pedicures and more, it’s such a great way to enjoy a little pampering while the kids are having fun at Kids Camp! And for a little mom and daughter bonding, the Red Lane Spa has recently introduced the new Ginger Lily spa menu offering special parent/child spa treatments!

The Red Lane Spa is so picturesque, just looking at it makes me feel more relaxed!

I had the chance to experience one of the new treatments for myself and since I knew I’d be heading back to harsh winter weather soon enough, I decided to indulge in the Front Porch Punch Shea Butter Massage. The mango, melon and strawberry scented Shea butter lotion left my skin so velvety smooth and the massage had me feeling even more relaxed than I had when I first stepped onto the resort. For a totally sensual treat, a trip to the Red Lane Spa is an absolute must when at a Beaches Resort!
