My goal as your romance travel specialist is to give you your very own “happily ever after.” What can I say, I’m a sucker for all things “love” — I inhale cheesy rom-coms and romance novels where the couple rides away into the sunset to start their new lives together. 

I help turn that fantasy into real life for you with my expert destination wedding, honeymoon, and romance travel design (and yes, epic sunsets are included). Growing up in the Philippines, surrounded by swaying palm trees and crystal clear water, sparked my love for planning tropical vacations—give me sun and sand and I’m a happy girl!

Meet Carol Carrillo,

Hopeless romantic, Hello Kitty obsessive, & your caring travel advisor

I have my father to thank, too, for my passion for travel. He worked on cruise lines while I was growing up, which took him away from our family for months at a time. But he would take pictures of all the incredible places he visited—from Antigua to Antarctica—and mail them back home to us (this was long before iPhones existed!). I would drool over the photographs and dream of the day I could visit these destinations myself. 

In fact, my dad’s profession inspired my own—I graduated from hospitality school in the Philippines and went on to work in several luxury hotels and resorts. Eventually, I made the jump to the U.S. to work with the Marriott brand, before starting my own travel agency in 2019.

My long career in hospitality taught me how to treat my clients with the respect and care they deserve. I know that travel can be a stressful experience—especially if you’re planning a destination wedding or milestone event!—so my team and I do everything we can to take that stress away. 

Service from the heart

That means welcoming all your questions, working tenaciously to find solutions, and responding with warmth and genuine care, no matter what the travel gods throw our way. At the end of the day, I want my clients to feel like family, and for them to know we have their backs—always.    

Welcome to the CC family—we can’t wait to start planning a dreamy escape just for you.

"I never used a travel agent before. Nor have I ever traveled out of the country so I needed help. Carol was amazing. She helped my family and I plan the perfect get away. She knew we all were so nervous. It seemed as though she was present the whole time. She helped from the arrival to the departure. Definitely going to use her every time I plan a trip. Thank you Carol for everything!"

So I have a few favorite destination, but one of them is Antigua. Its stunning beaches have definitely captured my heart and earned a top spot on my list! Plus, it's incredibly romantic, with plenty of adults-only resorts to choose from. 

Antigua

Destination

Particularly the Caribbean Mexico, no matter how many times I've visited, I'm still amazed by its charm! From the vibrant culture to the delicious cuisine, the beaches and thrilling adventures, there's always something new & exciting to discover.

Destination

This beach holds a special place in my heart. Consistently ranked among the top 10 most beautiful beaches in the world, Boracay captured my imagination from the moment I first set foot on its shores at the age of 7. Its powdery white sand and crystal-clear waters are truly spectacular.

Beach

If I see shrimps on a buffet station, you will always see my plate filled with it. Drizzle it with garlic butter & my heart is content. Another seafood that I love is crabs, I enjoyed it steamed with a plate of rice and that is heaven for me LOL

This is by far my favorite was our last family vacation to Cancun, check my baby out asleep on the pool with his bottle :)

Travel Memory

I used to be all about mango margaritas with Tajín, but one fateful sip of a mojito at the airport lounge changed everything. Now, you'll always find me reaching for a refreshing mojito as my go-to drink!

If you think you will be traveling often, consider enrolling in TSA PreCheck. For $85, valid for 5 years, you can breeze through airport security lines. If you travel internationally, Global Entry is a great option as it includes Tsa PreCheck benefits.

Travel Tip

You'll find me happiest aboard a boat, especially when it involves exploring a new destination and snorkeling (just as long as I have my life jacket on LOL)!
