“The world is a book, and those who do not travel only read one page,” said St Augustine.

While travel has been a lot harder to do during the pandemic, as the world slowly opens up and all eyes are on Tokyo to celebrate the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Jamaica’s ‘pocket rocket’ Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce teamed up with lodging marketplace Airbnb to share a list of her most desired places to travel.

When the Olympic champion isn’t blazing down the track, she’s a passionate wife and mother who loves to spend time with her family and relax. “I feel grateful to be able to travel the world and to train in different places that allow me to experience different cultures. Since the training and competitions are so demanding, I always look forward to having some time off to travel with my family. Therefore, I created a wishlist that combines different destinations that inspire me to come visit and relax,” said Fraser-Pryce.

Travel like a world-class competitor to places like Mexico, and, of course, right here in Jamaica.

Entire apartment in Jerusalem

This luxury rooftop apartment is brand new, and fully furnished to the highest standards. It’s great for couples on a romantic vacation in Jerusalem, and also good for families. There is an amazing porch with a unique and breathtaking panoramic view of beautiful Jerusalem, and it also boasts state-of-the-art design.

Jungle Cabin in Tulum

Acacia is a project for nature lovers and travellers who want to immerse themselves in a new experience. Each private cabin is beautifully built from natural and local materials, handmade furniture, and unique décor pieces. It’s a completely private jungle oasis in the heart of Tulum and ideal for relaxing after a long day of activities. Acacia is the kind of place where you feel alone and secluded from town but is located close enough to downtown (1.5 km) and 7km from public beach access.

Villa in Greece

A private room with a separate entrance is located on the first level of this boutique location. Imerovigli property travellers favour Anita’s Villa for its stunning panoramic and sunset views, friendly and seamless service offerings, and fusion of traditional cave architecture with modern amenities. It is located near the highest point of Santorini’s caldera.

Oceanfront Villa in Jamaica

Welcome to Tikal, an oceanfront luxury villa exquisitely remodelled in May 2021, with an airy modern Caribbean style and conveniently nestled between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, only 50 minutes from the Sangster International Airport. Tikal is within 30 minutes of most major tourist attractions.
