So excited to take our new family photos, this time with our little princess Dot outside of my belly! 🤰🏼

✨I need help!! ✨ Where on Disney property should we do our next photos? Parks and resorts are both options! I like places that are pretty but not too Disney (no castle, etc.). 📷 .photo

If you guessed Disney World on my stories you got it right (surprise surprise 😜)

Heading back to our favorite place for the week with the kids and my mom while daddy heads out for a work trip 🥲 So excited to experience Food & Wine Festival, see Moana’s Journey of Water, and hopefully get Brody on Seven Dwarfs Mine Train - he might just be an inch too short 🤞🏼

We finally were able to experience Topolino’s Terrace!! Such a fun character experience with our Bro bro 🎨

Hi friends! 🙋🏼‍♀️ We have a lot of new faces and I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Elliott and I am your travel agent at Hakuna MaTravels (my parents have blessed me with a boy name, but I am actually the girl on the right in this photo lol) 😊

I started this business to plan trips for family and friends heading to Disney and I have grown to plan travel for all Disney destinations 🐭 including Disney cruises, Aulani, and Adventures by Disney, along with All-Inclusives 🏝️, and other cruise lines 🛳️

This picture was taken on our most recent trip to Disney World last year and we have since then popped out our second travel agent in training, Dot! Brody loves his little Dot and we can’t wait to show her Disney World in April 👶🏻

I would absolutely love to help plan your next vacation! 😎

Cheers to National Plan a Vacation Day! 🥂 I want to hear where you’re going and who you’re bringing?

We have 11 months left of 2023 and it’s time to start planning this year’s vacation(s). I’d love to help you with all the details!

21/01/2023

Brody (& Dada) want you all to know that the Disney Dining Promo is still going on for stays between July 1st-10th and August 1st-September 14th at Walt Disney World! Reach out now and I can help you save up to $750 on dining during your Disney vacation! 😋

19/01/2023

Hi sweet friends ❤️ We took a nice break from our Hakuna social media to enjoy our little Dot! Brody’s little sister was born December 28th and we’ve been enjoying every minute with her these past three weeks 💖

Thank you for your patience as our responses may have been delayed, but we’ve kept busy with all the important dates for our clients. Those 4:30am wake ups for dining reservations aren’t too hard when you’re already awake 🥱😅 My goal for 2023 is to get back into our social media and I plan to slowly ease back into it over the next few weeks! So many exciting things happening for Hakuna MaTravels this year! 🥰

Have you had the chance to see the Grand Floridian’s Gingerbread House before? This is from 2015, but I swear I can still smell it filling the whole resort!! 🎄

We have an exciting day ahead!! All final payments for 2022 vacations have been made as of last night. I plan to get my last two travel packets for 2022 out tonight after Brody goes to bed. I guess the work doesn’t technically stop because we still have families traveling starting the first week of 2023, but I’m still calling it a win 🤪

Starting our week of family friendly all-inclusive resorts with Generations Riviera Maya! We had the pleasure of planning a group trip to this resort earlier this year that included 25+ people with ages ranging from 1 to 97 years old!! That's four 'Generations' for this group 😉

This property includes kids clubs for ages 4-12, baby amenities, and a family lounge. It is also right next door to their sister resorts, El Dorado Royale and El Dorado Casitas Royale. These are two adult-only properties that anyone 18+ can hop over and enjoy while staying at Generations. 🍹💃🏼

You'll always be in a suite at Generations! Every room category for this property are oceanfront and range from a balcony to swim up suites! 😎

The different resorts offer such a wide variety of options to make the perfect honeymoon for you! Long stretch of beaches, resort hopping to other Sandals properties, overwater bungalows, golf, and your choice of lively and social resorts or quiet and restful. Did I also mentioned an offshore island?!

Today marks 5 years married to Mr. Hakuna MaTravels so I thought I would share our honeymoon destination with you. We stayed at the Excellence El Carmen in Punta Cana and loved every minute of it!

This was before my travel agent days so I have pretty much zero pictures of the property, but I said back then how it was such an ‘instagrammable’ resort. Every restaurant and coffee shop had the prettiest walls and decoration. We loved the 24/7 treats at the coffee shop and the staff were phenomenal. ❤️ I can’t wait to come back here one day and I definitely plan on bringing the fam to one of their family friendly properties, Excellence Finest in either Cancun or Punta Cana! 🥰

**Adding some videos of the property and our room to my stories 🏝

Call us crazy, but adult-only Disney cruise vacations are so much fun!! Did you know there are whole sections of the ship that are reserved for people 18+?

Drink tastings, adult only pools, bars, and restaurants are all waiting for you! Adults can take advantage of these sections of the ships when their littles are at the kids club as well (or with grandparents 😉)!!

21/10/2022

Most Disney cruise itineraries in the Bahamas and Caribbean make a stop (sometimes 2!) at their private island, Disney Castaway Cay!

There are so many activities available during this stop for the whole family to enjoy. You might even see some fun and unique things while snorkeling. Anyone know what I’m referring to? 😜

20/10/2022

We love Disney cruises out of Port Canaveral because that gives us the ability to have a pre or post stay on Disney property!

Transportation is so easy when we can plan airport transfers to our Disney Resorts and then have the Disney Cruise Line bus pick us up the morning of our cruise. No Port of Arrival time needed as you get to start the boarding process when your transfer arrives at the port!

19/10/2022

Splash pads on the Disney Cruise ships are such a great addition for the non-potty trained littles. The ships are themed out as either Nemo or Dory’s Reef, Toy Story, and Nephew’s Splash Zone. 🐠💧

18/10/2022

Have you ever been to Hyperspace?! 💫🪐

Now is your chance! On the new Disney Wish you can try out of this world drinks while in their Hyperspace Lounge. It is such a unique experience you can’t get on any other Disney ships!
