2 families can visit Walt Disney World with the exact same time and have vastly different experiences.

It’s important to know a few key items…

1- Even “less crowded” times can feel busy. Knowing how to approach the parks is huge.

2- Knowing, understanding, and taking advantage of onsite perks will allow you to receive the most from your visit!

3- Following a carefully written plan that allows for waits that average 20 minutes or less and includes a midday break is huge!

4- Not all dining experiences are the same. There can also be too many reservations and less helpful times to schedule them.

5- The parks are constantly changing. What worked last year (and sometimes even last month) likely won’t work now.

My first hand experiences and accurate data blend together to provide my clients with the most magical experiences. No amount of Googling and Fan Boards can ever cover the same ground as an agent who lives and breaths the parks.

Want to experience the magic and leave with a heart filled with the best memories (and not regret)? All it takes is one quick message to yours truly and you can say so long to the stress of planning.

🫶It’s time for less stress and more magic!!

Florida is bracing for another hurricane. Since late last week discussion boards have been filled with so much confusion over what to do regarding vacations. While a vacation is the last thing that we want to think about in a moment of crisis, it is still a large investment that still required attention and decisions.

By this point, most families have diverted their plan and will visit when it is safer to do so. However, what has really stuck with me during this time is families still traveling because their offsite accommodation wouldn’t delay or refund. Their experience won’t be the same as it would be if the trip were postponed and in the path of the hurricane they would likely be safer at home.

Many families have prevented so much stress because they had a travel advisor who acted on their behalf to make necessary changes. Our team has saved clients HOURS on hold and also saved worry as we help guide them through their decisions.

A Travel Advisors purpose is often misunderstood, but when you work with the right person (like me) your trips will be so much more magical and less stressful. My clients best interests and vacation investment are my priority.

Sending safe wishes to all of my clients, family, and friends that may be impacted by the storm ahead.

Not All Cruises Are Created Equal—Let’s Find Your Perfect Fit! 🛳️

With so many cruise lines and ships to choose from, it’s important to know that each one has its own unique vibe. Some are all about high-energy adventures, while others offer more laid-back luxury. One ship might be perfect for a family looking for non-stop activities, while another is ideal for couples seeking a quiet escape.

✨ Here’s the thing— not every cruise is the right fit for every client. The key is finding the one that matches your style, whether you're looking for kid-friendly fun, romantic dinners, or a bit of both. That's where I come in! ✨

As your travel advisor, I’ll match you with the perfect cruise line, ship, and itinerary that fits your preferences and ensures you get the most out of your vacation. Let me take care of the planning so you can enjoy a cruise that feels just right for you.

Anyone can take advantage of Lightning Lanes, but this expert knows exactly how to make them work for each and every family so that they maximize their purchase and park time!

Common misconception: “All we do in Disney is stand in long lines.”

Myth. Busted.

If that’s what you’ve done in the past, please know that it doesn’t have to be that way.

✨I don’t stand in long lines

✨We ride all of our favorites at least once

✨ I support (and encourage) breaks, pool time, and utilizing the amenities at your resort.

Don’t let the horror stories scare you.

You can have the best trip to Disney and do ZERO prep work because I handle it all.

Less stress, more magic! That’s my philosophy.

Another morning, another successful round of dining reservations!

(My 4th this week🌟)

Part of the Disney experience is securing dining reservations.
Yes, the food is scrumptious but having everything perfectly placed in your fully customized plan makes it even better!

A few pro tips:
✅There is such a thing as overdoing it on your dining reservations.
😬Not all dining locations offer equivalent experiences.

…and of course, staying onsite ALWAYS has the added benefit of earlier access to dining reservations.

Ready to experience ALL of the magic?
👌Allow this expert to take the lead and make sure that everything is lined up perfectly from start to finish.

Thinking about setting sail on a Disney cruise but feeling a bit anxious? You’re not alone! Here are three common worries families have—and why you can put those fears to rest:

Will There Be Enough for My Kids to Do? Absolutely! Disney cruises are packed with endless entertainment options for kids of all ages, from character meet-and-greets to themed parties, kids’ clubs, and interactive play areas. Your little ones will be so busy having fun, you might have trouble keeping up!

Is It Worth the Cost Compared to a Disney World Trip? A Disney cruise can offer incredible value compared to a trip to Disney World. Your fare includes meals, entertainment, character experiences, and tons of activities, all in one place. Plus, with fewer additional costs like park tickets and transportation, it’s easier to budget and enjoy an all-inclusive experience.

Will There Be Enough for Adults to Do? You bet! While the kids are having their own adventures, adults can unwind at exclusive areas like adults-only pools, lounges, and spas. Enjoy a romantic dinner, take in a Broadway-style show, or simply relax knowing the kids are in good hands.

Ready to set sail on a worry-free adventure? I can help you plan the perfect Disney cruise, so you can focus on the fun!

Planning your Universal Orlando adventure?

🗝️Picking the right hotel is key to making your stay truly unforgettable!

Here are three insider tips to help you choose the perfect home base for your epic vacation:

🎟️Consider the Perks: Some Universal Orlando hotels come with extraperks like free Universal Express Unlimited passes, allowing you to skip the regular lines at most attractions. If you’re all about maximizing your park time, these hotels are worth every penny!

⛵️Location, Location, Location: Want to be just steps away from the action? Look for hotels within walking distance or a short boat ride to the parks. Staying close means you can easily pop back to your room for a midday break before diving back into the fun.

🧖‍♀️Think About the Amenities: Are you looking for a hotel with a splashy pool for the kids or a relaxing spa for yourself? Universal’s hotels offer a variety of amenities, from lazy rivers to top-notch dining options. Consider what’s important for your downtime to find the hotel that suits your family’s vibe.

Need help picking the perfect hotel?
🙋‍♀️As your Universal Orlando experts, I'm here to match you with the ideal option for your family’s needs and budget.

💃Let’s start planning your next adventure!

🌴 5 Must-Have Essentials for Your Family's Resort Stay in Mexico 🌴

Looking for a relaxing family getaway at a beautiful Mexican resort? Here are five essentials you won't want to forget for a smooth, stress-free vacation!

1. 🌞 Sunscreen & Sun Hats: If you’re lounging by the pool all day, that Mexican sun is strong! Keep your family’s skin protected with high-SPF sunscreen and stylish sun hats. A sunburn is the last thing you want on vacation!

2. 🩴 Comfy Poolside Footwear: Slip-on sandals or water shoes are perfect for navigating the pool area, beach, and your room. Choose something easy to slip on and off, so your little ones can jump in and out of the pool with ease.

3. 💧 Refillable Water Bottles: Staying hydrated is key, especially under the hot sun. Bring along insulated, refillable water bottles to keep everyone refreshed as you enjoy poolside fun or a stroll around the resort grounds.

4. 🧴 After-Sun Care: With all the time spent in the sun, pack some soothing aloe vera gel or after-sun lotion to keep everyone’s skin cool and moisturized after a day of poolside relaxation.

5. 🧺 A Poolside Bag: A spacious, waterproof bag is perfect for carrying your resort essentials—towels, snacks, swim diapers, and toys. Make sure it’s easy to grab when you’re heading out to the pool or beach!

Choosing the perfect Disney resort is a big decision, especially when you’re traveling with young children.

👑Do you want the luxurious experience of the Grand Floridian, where your little girl can unwind in accommodations suited to a princess after a day of adventures?

🌲Or maybe a little seclusion in the beauty of nature at Wilderness Lodge, complete with its own geyser?

👒Perhaps your perfect fit is actually a spacious 2 bedroom villa that transports you to the Mediterranean at Disney’s Riviera Resort.

Each Disney resort offers something unique, and I am here to help you find the one that fits your family’s needs and budget.

From dining options to pool fun, let’s talk about which resort is the best match for your family’s Disney dream vacation!

✨Returning home from Florida filled with magic✨ Taking a vacation can reduce cortisol levels, which can lead to more happiness, mental energy, and life satisfaction. Florida & Walt Disney World provide the perfect escape when you need a mental reset. I can share this from experience (many,many times). Being inside of the Disney bubble will help you to turn your frown upside and return with a renewed spirit. Better yet, with me handling the planning your brainpower can focus on packing and getting things done before you leave. That way your trip is a better experience from start to finish. 👌 #florida #getaway #mindsetmatters #disneytime #stressfree #stressfreedisney #myhappyplace #momlife #mentalhealthmatters #busymoms #mompreneur #girlpower #busylife #busywomen #decompress #floridalifestyle #disneyworld #disneygram #disneyparks #traveltips #travelplanner
