I can't wait to stay at...

the new W Vieques in Puerto Rico, opening March 1st, 2010 (though currently only taking reservations for travel dates of May 1st and later)!

Though the resort is larger than those I usually enjoy, with 150 rooms, its location, amenities, and unusual design are compelling enough to put it at the top of my short list of long weekend ideas! One of the reasons I've not yet visited this small island off off Puerto Rico's main island is that until now, there were no true resort options on Vieques--only limited-service hotels and villas. And as much as I love small properties, I'm not a fan of having to make my own breakfast while on vacation!

Getting married in French Polynesia is finally legal!

It was recently announced that couples from the US and other countries can legally tie the knot in Tahiti and her islands! French Polynesia resorts are now creating fabulous wedding packages which include flowers, photographers, cakes, group rates for guests, and more. What could be more beautiful than a wedding in paradise?
