Image
Puerto Rico is more than a beach destination —it's an island rich with history, warmth, rhythm, and soul. From colorful streets and historic forts to rainforest trails and glowing bioluminescent bays, Puerto Rico offers travelers a deeply immersive experience that goes far beyond relaxation. At Voyager Signature Escapes, Puerto Rico holds a special place in our hearts.

Pink Sand Beaches When thinking of tropical locations or relaxation vacations , most people talk about warm sun beating down on their skin, clear, blue ocean waters, and white sand between their toes. That sounds nice, right? But what about pink sand between your toes? Yes, some places actually have pink sand, and they’re beautiful! Pink sand gets its color from broken coral pieces, calcium carbonate materials from marine creatures, and seashells.  Sometimes, the sand has the slightest highlight of pink, but the shoreline and the water’s edge are where the pink will be most vivid. There are quite a few areas with pink sand beaches, but here are some that stand out to us! 1.

All-Inclusive vs. Non-All-Inclusive Resorts: Which Experience Fits Your Travel Style? When travelers start planning a beach or resort vacation, one question almost always comes up: Should we stay all‑inclusive or not? The answer isn’t about which option is better—it’s about which experience you want this trip to deliver. Some vacations are meant for slowing down and turning your brain off. Others are about exploring, tasting, and connecting with a destination beyond the resort gates. When planning a beach vacation, one of the first questions travelers face is whether to choose an all‑inclusive resort or go the non‑all‑inclusive route. Neither option is inherently better—it really comes down to how you like to experience a destination. Some travelers want ease, predictability, and the ability to switch off entirely. Others want to wander into town, discover local restaurants, and feel the rhythm of daily life beyond the resort gates. Both styles have their place—and both can be don...
