Here’s where I’m booking a trip in 2027 for myself if:

1) I want an easy trip with my young family
- Grand Velas Riviera Maya. Perfect for traveling with littles, and they provide all your baby gear. I’d personally prefer to book a trip here either January, February or March (to get somewhere warm!) or I’d look at Fall 2027 to get some incredible rates.
- Beaches Turks and Caicos. A kids paradise. Forget Disney, give me that water! (Literally. I’d take Turks once over 10 Disney trips, I dream of that beach!)

2) I want an anniversary getaway that’s quick, simple and relaxing.
- Impressions Isla Mujeres if I have at least 4 nights. A little complex to get there, but the sunset views will make up for it.
- Or, Sandals Montego Bay or Caribbean Cay. Freshly off a remodel, this is a quick 4 hour flight from Atlanta and then a short drive from the airport.

3) I’m celebrating a honeymoon, milestone anniversary or birthday and I’d like to step into a higher level of luxury, but I’m not interested in a long travel day.
- Hermitage Bay Antigua is the first place I’m checking. Quiet, sophisticated luxury, upscale rooms, and higher end touches.
-Ambergris Caye is my next option. Think gorgeous water, private cottages, beach all to yourself vibes. Private oceanfront pools.

4) I’m ready for adventure. I don’t want to be laying on the beach - give me all the activities and more, but with a side of luxury. I’m fine with a longer travel day, too
- South Africa at the Savanna Private Game Reserve. Think safaris, culture, and a private pool to end the evening.
- Nayara Tented CampTucked in the rainforest, these villas have private indoor/outdoor showers, spring fed plunge pools, views of the volcano and more.

One of my favorite things is when I have a couple (and friends, in this case) come back from a trip leaving me feeling inspired to plan the next one! I absolutely loved seeing Costa Rica through Josh and Haley and so thankful to have been able to witness 10 years of their marriage. This was a sweet one for me to help plan - I think these incredible snapshots will leave you feeling just as inspired as they did me to find your way to Costa Rica very soon 🌈🌳🌴

Split stay; 4 nights in Guanacaste and 4 nights in Arenal… loads of adventure and incredible wildlife, experience and views!

Hi friends! I am *officially* back from maternity leave next week! So thankful for this busy but beautiful summer. Though I’ve still been booking and servicing current clients, I’m excited to step back into the office in a bigger way starting next week. September/October are busy months with clients traveling to South Africa, Italy, Mexico, Punta Cana, Canada, Alaska, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Curaçao and more - Can’t wait to show you all more in the coming days and weeks.

Airfare is being released slowly over the next few weeks for the final weeks of Summer 2027 - it’s a great time to start thinking about where you are going next ☀️

One of our most asked questions! Where should you honeymoon based on your budget. Here are a few ideas!

20/02/2026

If you're looking for something a bit different for your honeymoon/anniversary trip... Have you considered a safari + beach combo?
Start with 4 nights on safari at Savanna Private Game Reserve. A luxury suite in a private reserve, private pool, coffee before sunrise, fireplace, two game drives a day, and golden hour sightings.Big Five mornings that stay with you.

Then we pivot straight to the Indian Ocean for 4 nights at Santorini Mozambique. Private villa vibes, fully inclusive (yes, cocktails included 😉), boat days, snorkeling, beach picnic breakfasts!

Safari adrenaline, and then a little time to relax.
