OverWater Bungalow – Closer than you think
I had the pleasure of seeing overwater bungalows in person is so much more awe-inspiring than in a picture. We visited Palafitos at El Dorado Maroma, and it was stunning. If this is on your bucket list, I highly recommend saving a little bit on airfare, by flying into Cancun, and staying in one of […]

I traveled to Walt Disney World in Florida 2016 and stayed at the Grand Floridian.The hotel is beautiful and right on the monorail system so transportation to the Magic Kingdom was a quick breeze.

Mandy Visits Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach
The Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach resort in Cabo San Lucas is gorgeous. It is a very large property and very spread out but there are golf carts running nonstop to take you where you want to go. This hotel has more of a Mexican feel to it, different from the contemporary resorts that are becoming […]

Mandy Visits Secrets Puerto Los Cabos
Cabo San Lucas…the first word that comes to mind is Wow! This destination is amazing and I cannot wait to go back. Where else can you find the desert, the mountains and the ocean? I wasn’t sure what to expect being there was a hurricane not so long ago but I saw no signs of […]
I have been to Jamaica several times, and have visited one of my personal favorite hotels, Couples Tower Isle in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. On this trip, we took some ‘local’ advice and ventured over to the Blue Hole. We hiked and were able to jump off the cliffs, swim under in the caves and jump […]

Majestic Elegance Destination Wedding
The Majestic Elegance was great! Everything went great! The rooms were beautiful (although ours was a bit musty smelling which we didn’t really mind too much…we figured that comes with the hot, humid temperatures). The wedding was absolutely perfect. Short and sweet, which was exactly what we wanted. The majestic elegance has by far the […]
