Getting Away to Reconnect (FM)

With my radio show I am always trying to provide resources, ideas, tips and tools to make life easier and to solidify a couple's relationship. Sometimes a couple's life can get put on the back burner once kids arrive, and what better way to jump start the connection than by getting away.

I have always felt that stepping out of the day to day routine and getting away from the hustle and bustle adds freshness to one's relationship. For this show I wanted to highlight two locations that provide a venue for quality time together, as well as romance and opportunities to reconnect.

The first destination is a 10 acre private island off the coast of Georgia called Eagle Island. With a 1700 sq foot lodge that sleeps 12, has 2 full baths, a 1500 sq. foot wrap around porch, and is fully equipped with everything a family needs, it provides a total getaway that can be rented for the week or a long weekend. The best part of staying at this lodge is the tremendous customer service. Andy Hill shares how guest services can stock the refrigerator before arrival, can rent and have delivered any baby items that are needed such as a crib or high chair, and can purchase diapers and baby food to have on hand as well. Guest services can also arrange activities for older kids and provide boating over to the local beach -- whatever their guests need, they are ready to accomodate!

It sounds like a heavenly retreat.

Then Mark Vandaloo, the General Manager of the Casa Marina Hotel and Restaurant, located on Jacksonville Beach, Florida talks up his family friendly historic hotel. With 23 rooms and parlor suites that come complete with ocean views and outdoor seating, the hotel provides an Old World Charm and Romance, with family friendly amenities. Being a beach property the hotel has it's own allure, but is also centrally located between the city of Jacksonville with its many activities, and St. Augustine with its trolleys, carriage rides, tours and museums, providing plenty to do with the family.

Tap in and learn about two destinations that you may want to escape to with your family!
