Hey, world wanderers! Let me spill the tea on the most exclusive invite-only luncheon I attended on September 15, 2023, hosted by none other than the Antigua and Barbuda tourism board. Picture this: a chic gathering at Hunters Steak House in the heart of Brooklyn, where travel agents and agency owners like myself came together to dive deep into the magic of Antigua and Barbuda.
As I walked into Hunters Steak House, the ambiance was electric. The event aimed to bridge the gap between travel aficionados and the tourism board, and boy, did it deliver! We got the scoop on all things Antigua and Barbuda, and here are the highlights that left me dreaming of crystal-clear waters and sandy shores:Royalton Chic: Brace yourselves, folks. Antigua and Barbuda are welcoming the stunning Royalton Chic. I was already planning a visit next year, but now it’s a definite rework of my trip itinerary. This resort promises luxury beyond compare.Restaurant Week: For a foodie like me, this is a game-changer. Dining during Restaurant Week on the islands is an absolute must. I can already taste the Caribbean flavors and savor the culinary delights.Boutique Resort Gems: If you’re looking for an intimate, personalized experience, the boutique resorts in Antigua and Barbuda are calling your name. These hidden gems offer a slice of paradise that’s perfect for those seeking exclusivity.
We also had presentations by my supplier partners and industry giants like Elite Island Resorts, Virgin Voyages, Blue Diamond Resorts, and Gogo had us all captivated. It was like getting the backstage pass to the future of travel to these incredible islands.
The food was amazing. We started with soft & warm bread with butter, then a House Salad: Baby Greens, Onion, Carrot, Tomato & Cucumber, Penne Ala Vodka with a Tomato Cream Sauce and I ordered the Pan Seared Salmon, served with a lemon butter Sauce
And here’s the cherry on top: I won a $50 gift card from my supplier partner GOGO!(i never win anything!!!) Talk about being in the right place at the right time. I’m already planning how to spend it on my upcoming Antigua and Barbuda adventure.
This event was a game-changer for me. I not only connected with like-minded travel enthusiasts but also got an exclusive look at what Antigua and Barbuda have in store for us. The Royalton Chic, boutique resorts, Restaurant Week – these are just the beginning of the adventures awaiting us.So, if you’re as excited as I am about exploring these beautiful islands, why not join me on my next group trip?
