Frequently Asked Questions

At Teressa's Dream Destinations, I specialize in creating unforgettable travel experiences, including all-inclusive, adults-only vacation packages, cruises, solo and group trips, and VIP sporting event packages. My expertise focuses on breathtaking destinations in the Caribbean, Mexico, the Maldives, the South Pacific, and other stunning island locales with crystal-clear blue waters. 

Booking a trip with Teressa's Dream Destinations is simple! Start by completing one of my quote request forms on our homepage to request a quote, or explore the pre-designed packages we’ve already created for you. Once we receive your information, we’ll take care of the rest and guide you through the booking process. 

 At this time, I do not charge a separate cancellation fee. However, each travel supplier (e.g., airline, cruise line, hotel, or tour company) has their own cancellation policies and fees, which vary depending on the provider and the timing of cancellation.

I will always do my best to explain any potential penalties before you book, and I’m here to assist if you need to cancel or modify your trip.

Additionally, I highly recommend travel insurance to protect your investment in case of unforeseen changes. Travel insurance isn’t one-size-fits-all, so I’ll guide you through your options to help you choose the best coverage for your needs.

I charge a non-refundable planning fee starting at $75 (for most individual trips), which is due before research begins. This fee ensures that I can dedicate time and expertise to designing the best options for your vacation, and it's what allows me to provide quality, stress-free service from start to finish.

This includes:

• A detailed quote with 2-3 custom options based on your preferences
• Insider tips, excursion recommendations, and travel insights
• Full booking support and travel documents
• Concierge-level assistance before and during travel

Need help deciding? I offer a free 30-minute discovery call to talk through your vision and see if we’re a good fit!

There is currently no fee for cruise bookings, sporting events, or deals posted on our social media channels. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay updated on the latest offers! 

Our sports packages will include the cost of the ticket(s), hotel stay, and roundtrip airport transportation. (Flights are not part of the package). Certain options may feature additional upgrades at supplementary charges. 

 Absolutely! If you're open to inspiration and love the idea of stress-free planning, you're in the right place. I offer curated group trips designed for travelers just like you — and they’re exclusively available to members of our FB Group The Luxe Travel Circle

From solo-friendly escapes to luxe group getaways, my group trips are handpicked to deliver unforgettable, black card-worthy experiences — with payment plans, flexible dates, and all the details handled for you.

✨ Join the Inner Circle to get early access to upcoming trips, insider perks, and your next favorite destination — even if you’re not sure what it is yet.

Yes! For most trips, we can offer flexible monthly payment plans with low deposits, typically ranging from $200 to $300 per person for packages that include flights, or as low as $50 per person for hotel-only bookings, depending on how far in advance your trip is. If your trip is less than 90 days away, full payment may be required at the time of booking, but we will always provide you with clear payment details in your quote so you can plan accordingly. 

If you find an identical quote at a lower price elsewhere, please send me a screenshot, and I’ll check to see if price matching is available. Some suppliers allow price matching when all details are identical ("apples to apples"). However, be aware that some "cheaper" options may come with restrictions, such as non-refundable rooms or fewer inclusions.

In many cases, we offer exclusive deals that may include added perks like resort credits, free upgrades, or additional services that you won’t find on other sites.

Additionally, booking through us means you have a dedicated travel professional to assist you if issues arise during your trip. With third-party sites, you may end up on hold for long periods or speaking to different representatives each time, leading to frustration and wasted vacation time. Your travel experience should be enjoyable from start to finish, and we’re here to make that happen!
