Why I went there..
After completing my first year of teaching,
relaxation was the only thing on my mind. I
heard about Aventura Spa Palace from a friend who
called it a little piece of heaven. I went
online to look at the resort and I was sold when
I saw the spa. Rob and I quickly booked our
trip. Paradise here we come!
