Tania Nash, of Well and Truly Travel, is currently staying at Sandals Ochi in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, with her husband to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary along with a group of four friends.  

The travel agent of 29 years told TTG the time spent indoors had been "mentally taxing" but said the "amazing" hotel staff, the "outstanding" food and games of Left, Centre, Right in the room with other guests had helped.
