About Me

Ahoy Sailors!  Virgin Voyages Terminal V
Ahoy Sailors! Virgin Voyages Terminal V

As a travel advisor who specializes exclusively in cruises, I help solo travelers, couples, and adults-only cruisers experience the Caribbean and Mexico with ease, style, and confidence. From quick getaways to milestone sailings, I curate cruise vacations that balance relaxation, fun, and unforgettable destinations—without the overwhelm of planning it all yourself.

I proudly work with Princess Cruises, Virgin Voyages, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, and Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL)—each offering a distinct onboard vibe, outstanding dining, and incredible itineraries. My personal favorite is Virgin Voyages, thanks to its modern adults-only ships, elevated dining (with excellent vegan options), bold entertainment, and no-kids, no-buffet energy.

When you book with me, you’re getting more than a reservation—you’re getting a cruise concierge. I assist with choosing the right ship and cabin, securing dining reservations, recommending excursions, navigating onboard events. My goal is to make your cruise seamless from the moment you book to the day you disembark.

As a seasoned solo cruiser, I understand the unique needs of traveling independently and love helping clients feel confident and excited about sailing solo—whether it’s your first cruise or your tenth. I also specialize in adults-only cruising, perfect for travelers who want a relaxed, grown-up atmosphere with great food, cocktails, and entertainment.

As a vegan and wellness-minded traveler, I offer insider guidance on cruise lines and ships that do plant-based dining well, so you never feel limited while at sea.

If you’re dreaming of a cruise that feels effortless, elevated, and perfectly matched to your travel style, I’m here to help you set sail—stress-free and excited for every moment ahead.

1st Time Cruiser - So much fun
Reviewed By johnson5532 - Sterling Hts, MI | Traveled to Bahamas | Caribbean
As a first time cruiser, Colette booked me an unbelievable cruise on Virgin Cruise Line. She handled the bookings of my air flight and the cruise, as well as a hotel reservation for my day in Miami. Colette also made recommendations of places of interest she thought I would enjoy seeing while in Miami and Key West Florida, as well as suggestions for things to do while on the cruise. This was a wonderful vacation and Colette did a wonderful job making my trip so enjoyable
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
