Jimmy Martin Travel

I’ve never really understood the need for a travel agent. My travel style is general to book cheap, snag an airbnb and wing it, so i’ve never really needed the promise of a 7 night tour to whatsit or a charming romantic country bed and breakfast get away.
Until I decided that I too, would become one of the all inclusive junkies.
I work a rather hectic job and as much as I love the bustle of vacationing in a new city, my travel style isn’t really relaxing. Generally, I spend most of my vacation days at full tilt trying to see and eat as much as possible. But as I started looking at the upcoming year, I realized I might fancy sitting on a beach, eating buffet food, getting drinks brought to me and generally unplugging. It took 30 years but I finally understand the appeal of the «sit and do nothing» vacation.
But the thing is, the «sit and do nothing» is much harder to find then the «book and explore willy nilly vacation». My go-​to sites for flights suddenly became a huge, confusing wave of information when I wanted to book an all inclusive, lazy vacation.
Jimmy Martin is right down the street from my house and I walk by it all the time, so I decided to take a sneak peek at their website first. It’s a good website — clean, easy to navigate and has some pretty snazzy deals. It was enough to warrant a stop in for more information.
My stop was quick, but the folks here were really helpful. I travel solo mostly, and all inclusives can be a pain in the butt to book for one person but they gave me some really useful tips/​options, without making me feel like a leper for wanting to beach vacation solo. I was only in for a few minutes, but left with a few new places to consider and plans to return at a later date after snooping locations on their website to talk about booking something concrete.
I’m not sure if a travel agent is going to be something that replaces my age old habit of internet surfing vacations, but in this particular instance, I think they may become my go-​to for the rare lazy travel. If you seek a travel agent — they are very nice and worth chatting with/​snooping online.
