The Podcast is BACK!

After recently returning from my Maui vacation, one of the most common questions I have been getting as a travel advisor is, "Should we go to Puerto Rico or Hawaii?" The truth is that both destinations offer beautiful beaches, incredible food, outdoor adventures, and unforgettable experiences. But the best choice depends entirely on your travel style, budget, and vacation goals. Let's compare the two!

If you've ever started pricing cruises, you've probably had the same reaction many of my clients do: "Why is Disney Cruise Line so much more expensive than other family-friendly cruise lines?" It's a fair question. When you're comparing two seven-night cruises with similar itineraries, it can be confusing to see such a big difference in price. You might look at the ship, the destinations, and the number of nights and wonder, "What exactly am I paying more for?" Having sailed on different cruise lines both before kids and with kids, I've experienced cruising from different stages of life. I genuinely believe every cruise line has something special to offer, and the best choice depends on what kind of vacation you’re looking for. 

Did you know there is a place in Magic Kingdom where guests can go on a Pirates Treasure Hunt?  Tucked away in the bustling streets of Adventureland, A Pirate’s Adventure – Treasures of the Seven Seas invites guests to step into a swashbuckling world of hidden maps, magical talismans, and high-seas intrigue. Unlike traditional rides, this interactive treasure hunt transforms Adventureland into a living pirate playground, where you become part of the story.

If you've ever planned a Walt Disney World vacation, you've probably done what most people do first: scroll through resort photos. And honestly? Disney does an incredible job. The pools look pristine. The rooms are perfectly staged. Every building looks magical. But after helping dozens of families plan Disney vacations, I've learned something important: The photos tell you what a resort looks like. They don't tell you what it feels like to stay there. They don't tell you that the room you booked because it was the least expensive might also mean a long walk back with tired kids after fireworks. They don't tell you which areas are peaceful and relaxing or which are full of activity all day. That's where having a travel advisor makes all the difference. My job isn't just helping you choose a Disney resort - it's helping you choose the right one for your family's vacation. Let me show you what the photos don't.
