Really missing this view! (the new was amazing, by the way. You need to go!)
I have booked myself on TWO separate trips for next week to Orlando theme parks! Am I totally crazy? I may need a chill beach again after this…

Lucky SEVEN! ✨
Today is my 7th anniversary as a travel agent with .
Taking the leap to have my own business was the absolute best career & life decision!
Since July 14, 2017, I’ve sold over $6M in travel, worked with over 3000 clients, booked 2000 vacations, traveled a lot, survived the year-that-must-not-be-named, made my best friends (in fellow agents & clients!), smiled so much, created special memories for my family and many others, and have been super available for my kids…who also now get amazing lives.
I say this because I’m just so grateful. I owe EVERYTHING to the people who took a chance on me: who is the greatest lady one could ever get the pleasure to know and love + all my friends who were willing to book with me…and then those friends/clients (and clients who become friends - hi 😘) who have continued to send me referrals, who then send me referrals, and so on.
I 🫶🏼 Y’ALL.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

No caption needed for this gorgeous photo of my clients, a grandmother + grandchild at Walt Disney World. This is just so magical and perfect. This is exactly why I do this job! 🥹😍✨
Thank you, P family! I loved helping your big family have such a special time together.

It’s National Donut Day 2024! 🍩
You too can have one of these massive & delicious donuts at Walt Disney World. They have been my daughter’s fave for years…they are a must have for every trip for her! I can tell you where all the stands are around the parks! 🤣😋
05/04/2024
Happy Friday! Doesn’t this look like a fun place to be?! 🪄⚡️🐉
Universal Orlando Resort is the most fun (and easy—I can explain!). I’ve had several clients there recently. And it’s the trip my own kids always ask for!
19/03/2024
☀️ So maybe I couldn’t actually be in Mexico *today* (oh I will be again soon!), but my fellow Small World BIG FUN agents and I were invited to an event in Dallas to meet with 4 all-inclusive Mexico resorts that are part of one of my favorite hotel groups.
✈️ The thing they all have in common… they are close to Tulum, Mexico! And in just a few days, American Airlines will have daily flights from DFW to the brand new Tulum airport, TQO.
🎉 This will be a great airport to use if you are visiting hotels/resorts in the Tulum or more “southern” Riviera Maya area.
🌴During booking, we will discuss which airport makes the most sense for your resort! I’m hearing and seeing that introductory flight prices are great!
17/03/2024
Now that spring breaks are ending, who wants to talk SUMMER vacays?!
28/02/2024
“Now, think of the happiest things. It’s the same as having wings!” 💚
I’d love to help you make some happy memories here with your family & friends!
26/02/2024
Surprise! I’m here at Walt Disney World again. 🎉
And surprise! This news about 2025 vacations was just dropped to us about 30 minutes ago…
✨We can book vacations to Walt Disney World Resort for January-October 2025 beginning tomorrow, February 27!
✨Also! Throughout 2025, guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel can enjoy admission to one of the water parks on your check-in day – included with your stay. 💦
If you are on my 2025 list, I’ll be reaching out soon.
If you’d like to discuss a 2025 Disney World vacation, let’s chat! Grab a time on my calendar here: www.calendly.com/jodyeverson

I firmly believe that everybody needs a getaway to a resort! You deserve to feel pampered & experience the little luxuries that make your time there extra special. Wear the robe, wear the slippers, take a long shower, burn the incense, sip champagne while you get ready, have a coffee at 5:00 PM, let them give you turn-down service. Eat the desserts! (sounds like my convictions are based on recent actual experiences!)
Getting away from normal life is a real treat and a blessing. And your time is valuable! I always tell clients that it’s my job to be a good steward of their precious time and hard-earned money.
Let’s make sure you do it right!
06/02/2024
First up for tomorrow: Secrets Moxche! It’s an adults-only resort in the Mexican Caribbean and known for amazing pools and an upscale vibe. I’ve stayed at many Secrets resorts in the past, so I’m excited to experience this one next. I can always help find the right one for you - based on your style, taste, budget, trip type, and wants.

Hooray for making it to a long-awaited vacation at The Happiest Place on Earth + when the weather is way better than back home! ☀️ This crew is living it up at Disneyland Resort…and it’s a first Disney experience for the little guy!
Pro hint: Disneyland can totally be done in a weekend or so. Let me help you make it happen! 🧞♂️
09/01/2024
You hear it from me all the time, but see these comments from a Disney Cruise Line client who sailed this week. She’s a mom of two boys, and they love cruising with DCL as a family vacation. I love these thoughts she shared! And I 100% agree!
02/01/2024
Cheers to 2024! 🥂
We just learned of a new Walt Disney World offer for summer 2024:
Starting Jan. 3, 2024, Disney+ subscribers can get a FREE dining plan when purchasing a non-discounted 4-night, 4-day Walt Disney Travel Company package that includes a room at a select Disney Resort hotel and theme park ticket with a Park Hopper option. This offer is valid for arrivals most nights July 1 through Sept. 30, 2024.
As always with these offers, not all resort hotels, room types, & dates are included. But let’s find something that works for you!
The summer is a great time to travel to Disney World…and the Halloween season starts in August there!
26/12/2023
Merry Christmas from my family to yours! Maybe not surprising, but we traveled to a fave spot of ours for the most amazing & immersive Christmas experience!
I hope your holiday season has been magical. I can’t wait to meet more clients in 2024!
08/12/2023
✈️ In the last 13 weeks, I’ve been to Disneyland, Disney World 3 times, and Mexico 2 times. I’ve also toured a Disney cruise ship (+ did an “actual” sailing in the summer).
These are really the *core destinations* for my business.
I say all of this to hopefully show you that I am REAL dedicated and committed to what I book for my clients. I like to know the ins and outs of the destinations I sell because I want you to have a magnificent time!
05/12/2023
I’ve made it to the Most Magical Place on Earth for a few days! I have some specific things to check off during this “it’s always work” trip, but seeing at Jollywood Nights tomorrow night will be the best! Just arrived at Animal Kingdom Lodge (omg their Christmas tree…stay tuned for a Reel on that) and hey, look who I found! Keep your head on a swivel as characters are visiting resorts now too!
04/12/2023
I love this view when climbing Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (though probably not the smartest place to have your phone out!)
It was beautiful there on Thanksgiving Day…and I’ll be back in just a few days!
24/11/2023
🧡THANKFUL🤎 for all of YOU today & every day! It’s been another fantastic year of booking + planning your travels.
Please continue to keep me in mind for your Disney & Universal destinations + Mexico/Caribbean/Tropical trips.
Thank you!
14/11/2023
Look at some of my most SPECIAL clients celebrating the holiday season already at Disneyland. ❤️💚 Looking good, y’all!
(I think this was trip no. 13 for me to book for them! 🥰 With always at least 1 more on the books, of course! 😆)
A family: you are so good to me. Thank you!

It’s always so hard to leave such a beautiful place! We just spent the long weekend at Dreams Playa Mujeres Golf & Spa Resort.
I’ve sent many clients here and been myself with another agent, but this time I was with my own family + our friends. Two thumbs up from all…and they want to go back! From the gorgeous wide beach (perfect for the beach volleyball players in the group) to the many pools and hot tubs (for the kids of leisure) to the delicious restaurants (that were wonderful with some serious gluten allergies we have), we all had a blast. We experienced the spa, room service, benefits of the Preferred Club like the lounge and lazy river, the waterslides, a wonderful adult-only dinner over at Secrets next door, a magic show, swimming with the dolphins in the ocean on-site, & more. It really is the perfect family resort in the Cancún area.
I’d love to send you here too!

This is Halloween! Happy spooky day to all of you! 🎃
This giant Mickey pumpkin is one of my favorite features of Disneyland Park during their Halloween Time.

Sometimes an “all inclusive” getaway is not exactly what you are looking for. Sometimes you want to stay at what’s called a “European Plan” (EP) resort.
Often these are elevated resort experiences (and common to be family-friendly). They are great for someone who wants more unique food options and “craft” cocktails, those who may want to venture off property for some meals, and those who actually may not want to eat or drink a ton. Many (but not all) do cater to a higher-end/luxury price point.
I’m happy to help you explore there options, as I’ve stayed at a few of these types of properties in Mexico myself. And I’m currently watching a class to learn about over 40 of these resorts in the Riviera Maya!
26/10/2023
°o°🛳️ 2-0-2-5!
I know it seems absolutely crazy to think about, but we can start booking early 2025 Disney Cruise Line sailings in a few days!
This would be for January-May 2025 sailings for adventures to the Bahamas, Caribbean, Mexico, Pacific Coast, Hawaii, & South Pacific.
There will be sailings on all of Disney’s soon-to-be SIX ships, as the newest vessel, Disney Treasure, begins her voyages in December 2024.
I firmly stand by my claim that this is the best vacation for all members of your family! I have done these cruises with adults only, with my kids & then as my kids have gotten a few years older, with grandparents, with cousins of different ages… and everyone is able to have fun and do their thing.
Let’s connect if you want to cruise with Captains Mickey + Minnie!

However You Holiday, You Do Yule at Universal Orlando Resort!
{fun tagline for this holiday season!}
If you are thinking about a 2023 holiday trip still, Universal Orlando is a super fun spot! We’ve done it a couple of times.
This is the place to let loose and set your festive side free. Join the celebration of Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and laugh along to the fun of Grinchmas. Top off the fun with a stay at one of Universal Orlando Resort's amazing hotels.
16/10/2023
Cheers to 100 years of Disney! One hundred years ago today, Walt Disney founded the Walt Disney Company. It has brought so much joy, magic, happiness, celebration, whimsy, and smiles to millions upon millions. I can’t imagine this company not in my life.
Walt Disney is definitely someone with whom I’d love to have a conversation! He was pure genius and visionary.
10/10/2023
These are my vacation mornings faves!
☕️ In-room coffee…bonus if it comes with a view like this.
🥚 Buffet scrambled eggs. Heapings for me, please. (even better when they put out a fresh, new vat like here)
🍣 Smoked salmon (usually also on a buffet…). Just load it on my plate by the pound.
I totally live for these type of mornings. Ahhh trips are the best.
09/10/2023
Corner room with all of these amazing colors…yes please! 💚🩵💙🤍 I’m in Cancún/Riviera Maya for a few days as a guest of Palace Resorts to tour several of their properties. I’m staying at the adults-only Sun Palace in the Hotel Zone. (loved the quick 10-15 minute ride from the airport) The views are gorgeous here! I love the infinity pools and white sandy beach too.
06/10/2023
Do you have a wild hair to get to Mexico? 🇲🇽🌴🍹☀️ Let’s do it! We can still make 2023 vacations happen…and of course spring break, birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, summer, + even social (think destination weddings & family reunions) and corporate groups for 2024. I’m heading back to Riviera Maya (Cancún area) on Monday to inspect 6 family and adult-only resorts.
Follow along here. 🎉
04/10/2023
Hey friends! Happy Wednesday! I’m just gonna shoot you straight here. The Walt Disney Travel Company has released (and is continuing to release) a tremendous number of discounts for Walt Disney World and Disneyland travel for Spring of 2024. My job is to make sure that I’m looking at all of my travelers’ reservations for each discount to see if it’s a good value for you. There are a ton of options and it’s easy to overlook something. That why I’m here! To take this burden off your shoulders.
And if you’re considering a parks trip between now and April-ish…let’s talk about it now. Discounts are really only released when demand is low. So let’s get to work!

Having stayed at 19 different resorts in the Cancun/Riviera Maya area, I can confidently say THIS one has the most beautiful, crystal-clear water I’ve ever seen—and it has not one, but TWO stunning beaches! Whether you’re floating (and doing ocean aerobics!) for hours, exploring both beaches, or swimming with tropical fish, this family-friendly resort is the ultimate slice of paradise for me. 💦🌴
Our encounters with the Death Eaters at Universal Orlando were so cool! (and creepy!)They have descended upon The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley at Universal Studios Florida on select nights from August 29 to November 3.
With Walt Disney World Resort being 43 square miles, transportation to/from parks, resorts, Disney Springs, & the airport is inevitable. In fact, on this trip I used all the ways: bus, Skyliner, monorail, Uber/Lyft, my own feet, and boat. The only thing I didn’t have was a personal car, but I did use my amazing private transfer company (black SUV) from the airport. All to say: I know how to get you around and what is best depending on where you stay (and maybe we decide where you stay based on the transportation options you want to use!). Let’s talk.
Here’s a pro tip when riding Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT at Disney World! (I’m here now!)
We can book Disneyland Resort for 2025 vacations starting today! You’ll hear me consistently talk about how much I love Disneyland. It’s the original, classic theme park that Walt himself really had his hands on. If important, you can make it a shorter trip when you go to Disneyland, and everything here just feels a little bit easier than others!
Only every so often is it truly “too late to book” a trip for my clients. (all Disney including cruises, all Universal, Mexico/Caribbean) If this idea ever crosses your mind and you just aren’t sure if it can be pulled off, please reach out to me! Happy to take a look at options for you. ✈️
We simply couldn’t help ourselves! Love these little moments that you can’t plan for that make your vacation extra magical. While I loved the summer with my kids and time for getaways like this, I’m celebrating back to school so that I can get back to planning lots of vacations with uninterrupted days! 😜 Reach out if you are still thinking about a 2024 vacation…or even 2025 or 2026!
It’s my 4th visit to Cancún/Riviera Maya in 2024. I just love it here! Beautiful resorts + fantastic people and service. I send lots of clients (families, couples, friend groups) here year round. I’d love to help find the perfect spot for you! 🇲🇽
This is why I won’t be stopping these trips anytime soon! Disneyland last week… 😍
Y’all! 🥹 #notesfrommyclients “Hey! I just wanted to say thank you!The trip was perfect and we never had a single problem. Thank you for referring the hotel to us. We loved it. So easy to get to everything. The weather ended up being nice and never rained really. The kids and I had a blast!Thank you for all your help and answering all my questions. I truly appreciate it. I have bragged to everyone about you and how you made this trip so easy. Thank you again!“ 🙏 Thank YOU, Jennifer. Your words mean so much to me.
The most magical time at the Most Magical Place on Earth will be here before we know it! I’m talking about the 2024 holiday season at Walt Disney World resort. 🎅🏻🎄Starting next week, we can book tickets to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights if you are an on-property guest. I’ve reached out to all of my Disney World clients vacationing in November & December, but let’s talk if you too want to get there for the merry season. They even released some room and ticket discounts yesterday for these months!
It’s truly the vacation for all members of your crew! 🛳️ ⚓️ You have family activities, kids-only clubs, adult-only dining/areas, live shows, themed lounges, waterslides, pools, fireworks, and amazing destinations…just to start! Disney Cruise Line bookings for fall 2025 and spring 2026 (!!!) open this week. I’ve sailed Disney Cruise Line 6 times and book many clients. Let’s talk!
Who still needs a ✨jolly holiday✨ this summer? I’m still booking clients for summer 2024 travel (+ of course through 2025)! Lots of destinations we can discuss! 🌎
If the road (sidewalk) has to end, this is where I’d want to be! I’m a lifelong beach lover, so I really enjoy finding sweet spots like this at resorts. The waves are a little rough, but the sounds and smells here are heavenly! 🌊
Where are my pool people?! 💦 I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like the crystal lagoon at AVA Resort Cancun! AVA Bay is 2.8 acres and is lovely to lounge in, wade in, or swim! They even have paddle boards if you’d like more activity
Looking for a summer trip? Disneyland Resort released some room + ticket offers for travel this summer! I’ve already saved clients a good amount of $. Offer dates are from June 10-September 26, 2024. Of course, not all dates may apply, but reach out and I can take a look! My kids and I love Disneyland for an easy and quick getaway in the beautiful southern California sun.☀️
I know not every resort can check all boxes, but this one certainly checked my “absolutely stunning grounds” box last week! If you’ve been around my page, you know I’m totally obsessed with palm trees. 🌴🌴🌴 I couldn’t get over how many there were…and they were all so lush & green & tall! This resort had so many nice shady areas to just relax.I loved the water color here too. 🩵💚 Oh and see my previous reel about the quesadillas…OMG. Big fan of El Dorado Seaside Palms in the Riviera Maya.
Y’all. The fresh quesadilla station at a Mexico resort is my absolute fave. Delicioso! Don’t miss it. 🇲🇽
Get me to 🇲🇽! I’ll be back in Cancún on Monday…and then twice more this summer. All of my trips are to new-to-me resorts (I mean, there are like 200 resorts in Riviera Maya so eventually I’ll get to all of them!). I like sending clients to hotels or hotel groups that I’ve experienced myself or at least where I have resort connections or success stories from other clients. I want it to be the best for you. Let me be your Mexico vacation gal!
