Mexico is so much more than Cancun!

One of my favorite parts of being a travel advisor is introducing my clients to new ways to explore and go beyond Cancun.

And yes — Cancun is amazing. But if you’re looking for something different, here’s a few ideas:

Isla Mujeres
🌴 Postcard-perfect beaches without the crowds
Just a 20-minute ferry ride from Cancun, Isla Mujeres feels like a hidden gem. Think crystal-clear water at Playa Norte, vibrant local charm, and epic snorkeling with colorful marine life. It’s a quiet escape where time slows down, and yes, you can still sip margaritas by the beach.

Holbox
🏝️ This tiny island feels like a secret slice of paradise.
Holbox is where I send clients who want untouched beauty and a slower pace. No cars, just sandy streets, boutique hotels, and flamingos casually hanging out on the shore. Plus, the bioluminescent waters at night? Total bucket list material.

Playa del Carmen
☀️A little more action, but with a local twist.
Playa del Carmen is all about variety. Stroll Quinta Avenida for vibrant restaurants and shops, or head to quieter beaches just outside the main area. I always recommend a day trip to Cozumel for incredible snorkeling or diving, it’s just a ferry ride away.

Once you’ve picked your destination, you need the perfect resort or hotel to stay, and I just happen to be an expert in matching clients to accommodations that fit their needs and vibe.

Some people would say I’m the human version of Expedia—if Expedia actually knew you.

Truthfully though, not everyone had the time to scroll through a million reviews on Expedia to figure out the perfect trip.
And how do you know if the person leaving those reviews really cares about the same things you do?

Maybe they loved the hotel buffet because of the chicken nuggets, but you’re dreaming of Michelin-star meals. Or they raved about the nightlife, but all you want is to unplug with nothing but the sounds of the ocean in the background.

That’s where I come in.

Unlike a search engine or some anonymous five-star review, I’ll take the time to get to know you. Through conversations and questions, I’ll find out what really matters to you on a trip — whether it’s the coziest boutique hotels, wild adventures, or something the whole family can enjoy.

I’ll give you recommendations rooted in my real, lived experiences, so you’ll end up with a one-of-a-kind trip that you’ll talk about for years.

Ready to ditch the endless scroll and plan a trip that’s so you? Let’s chat, and I’ll take it from there.

It’s so easy to underestimate how many decisions go into planning a trip from start to finish. Maybe you’ve narrowed down your destination, but now you’re scrolling through hundreds of resort options, wondering, ‘how do I even choose?’

Here’s how I help my clients cut through the noise:

✨ Start with your priorities. Ask yourself: What’s most important for this trip? Is it an all-inclusive experience, being close to specific attractions, or having a kid-free vibe?

✨ Consider your must-haves. Think amenities: Swim-up bars, private plunge pools, or even family-friendly suites with plenty of space. Make a list of non-negotiables and let that guide your search.

✨ Think about the vibe. Do you want something relaxed and intimate, or lively with lots of activities? The feel of the resort can make or break your trip.

✨ Lean on an expert. I recently helped a family of four find the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation in Jamaica. They skipped the overwhelm, and I handled the details.

Here’s the good news: You don’t have to figure it all out alone. I can help you find that one perfect resort or itinerary that checks every box—and then some.

Three cruise routes that should be on your radar in 2025.

🌟 The Mediterranean Marvels Cruise – Perfect for first-timers or family groups, this route combines iconic cities like Rome, Barcelona, and Athens with charming coastal gems. Think ancient ruins, sun-soaked beaches, and culinary delights— plus plenty of shore excursions to suit every age and interest.

🌟 The Alaskan Wilderness Adventure – Ideal for families craving something unique, this cruise is all about glaciers, wildlife, and jaw-dropping scenery. From whale-watching to guided hikes in untouched wilderness, it’s an unforgettable journey through nature’s most spectacular landscapes.

🌟 The Caribbean Escape – For those looking for relaxation and fun, the Caribbean delivers. Crystal-clear waters, private island stops, and activities for all ages make it a no-brainer for a group getaway or a laid-back introduction to cruising.

Here’s the thing though: Making recommendations is tough when I don’t have context, so if you’d like some tailored suggestions for your trip, get in touch!
I’d love to hear about your travel preferences so I can make personal recommendations.
