I just got to travel for my job! Let me know what questions I can answer for you!

Why Pineapple Escapes? We travel!

We make a point to get out there and see what we sell, and see what we should add to our suggestions. We check out the check in process, we eat in the restaurants, we test out the beds.

Thinking about a resort? Ask us, maybe we've been there.

Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya Adults Only

Travis and I got to enjoy this resort for a few days! It was BEAUTIFUL. If you love pools, beaches, great food, and a laid back vibe, this place is for you!

We had some of the best food we've ever had on an all-inclusive vacation. The beach is expansive, white sand, and beautiful water. The pool has a lot of open chairs with umbrellas, and there was always music playing. The swim up bar often had people enjoying drinks and conversation with other vacationers. There are shows for entertainment, bars open until 1a, and 24/7 room service for those wanting to sneak away to an early evening.

I highly recommend this resort for couples and small groups who are looking for a laid back vacation or a place to make their own fun.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out!

I had one of the most fun weeks of my athletic training career! I spent 7 days in Enid, OK with the DMACC Baseball team while they competed in the D2 Junior College Baseball World Series. This team showed so much heart and dedication and finished 5th-6th in the NATION! Honestly, this is one of the best group of men I've worked with in my career, and that started from the coaches all the way down to every last player.

That said, I am back "in the office" and open for any and all quotes and bookings! Let's get something on the books for your family summer trip or a great winter get away. If you need ideas, I'm here for that as well!

Have you ever wondered where the 🍍 in Pineapple Escapes came from?

When our agency owner, Jamie, opened Pineapple Escapes in 2020 she wanted to create an agency centered around a few of her favorite things, 🍍 Hawaii 🍍 Dole Whip and ✈ Travel. 🍍Pineapples also represent Hospitality.

Back then Jamie had no idea what the upside pineapple meant, other than being a delicious cake. Now today, it’s the home agency for other well, educated travel agents as myself! Jamie is leading us to be so successful in taking care of our clients!

Let’s go you traveling!

05/23/2024

I am SO excited to be heading to Enid, OK with the DMACC Baseball team for the D2 Junior College baseball World Series. This is their first tournament appearance since 2012 and the first they’ve made it since I started at DMACC!
