Another wonderful Women in Business Luncheon. Thank you Greater Beauregard Chamber of Commerce for creating a space to celebrate women supporting women!

If you've been here for any amount of time... you know I'm a big believer in blank space on an itinerary. Don't get me wrong, your trip is still fully planned. Flights, accommodations, transfers, the must have tours or excursions, are all handled.

But with me, the empty afternoons are 100% on purpose.

So be comoletely honest... are you a plan every single minute type of traveler or a leave room for unplanned exploration traveler?

There's a point in honeymoon research where every overwater bungalow starts to look the same and you can't remember out of the 14 you saved which was the one you were actually excited about.

So here are seven places that don't always make the list, each matched to a different kind of couple. Some of you will read the first line and know immediately if you'd love it or not. And some of you will read one and realize it's absolutely not for you, which is just as helpful.

If you're wondering how to choose a honeymoon destination, start with the budget. What the trip costs shapes what's actually on the table. It's much easier to make concessions based on budget before you've really fallen for a place. DM me "HONEYMOON" and I'll send you the Honeymoon Budget Planner. It's six pages to help you know if your budget will actually work before you start imagining yourself there.

Let's talk about the planning fee. Either people assume I don't charge one because "that's what travel agents do" or it's the thing everyone wonders about but doesn't really want to ask.

I'd rather you know exactly what you're paying for than wonder about it. Commission only shows up after you travel, and only if you book with me. Everything that happens before that, from the research to the proposal, happens on my own time. The fee is what makes it possible for me to give your trip that kind of attention from our very first contact.

And if you already know exactly which resort or cruise you want and just need it booked (with the perks), that's what The Lagniappe Planning Package is for, with a $0 planning fee.

Feel free to DM me if you ever have questions about where a planning fee would land for your specific trip or what's included.

Last month in San José del Cabo, I was the one being sold to. The team at Secrets Puerto Los Cabos walked me through the property, and I did what I always do on a resort tour. I look well beyond the best view they always love to show you.

Don't get me wrong, the pretty parts matter. But you'll spend a lot more time in your room, at the pool, and at dinner than you'll ever spend admiring the beautiful lobby. So here's where my attention actually goes.

THE ROOMS:
I always ask to see the entry-level room, not just the suite they love to show off. (The suite is gorgeous. It's also not what most people book.) I want to see what my clients will actually sleep in, and whether it looks anything like the website. Sometimes the photos are stunning but then the room in person can feel dated or a little run down.

THE LAYOUT:
How far is the room from the beach, the pool, and dinner? Are stairs, elevators, or golf carts involved? I want to know where the nightlife sits in relation to the rooms, because that can mean the difference between quiet nights and potentially hearing karaoke at midnight. If the resort shares grounds with a sister property, I want to know exactly which areas are yours and which could be shared with other resort guests.

THE PROS AND CONS:
How many restaurants are open each night? Do you need reservations? Is there a dress code? I also want to know what the club level really includes and whether it's worth the upgrade, what fees are hiding in the fine print (resort fees, dining surcharges, spa, wifi), how far it is from the airport, and whether there's anything walkable off property.

THE REALITIES:
Is the beach actually swimmable, just pretty to look at, or great for a long walk? Are there enough loungers for the number of rooms, or is it a 7am towel race? (I do my best to stay away from the lounger race.) And I always look past the renovated lobby. Hallways, bathrooms, and pool edges can tell you how a resort really takes care of itself.

THE OPERATIONS:
I pay attention to what they're really trying to emphasize and what they're intentionally skipping. For instance, if they aren't showing me the spa... there's something wrong with that! Then I ask the question no sales team loves to hear: what happens when something goes wrong? A room move, a complaint, a bad weather day. How they answer can tell me more than the entire tour.

Yall, I loooove a pretty resort photo, but those are mostly the resort's job. Knowing what's behind them is mine.

So, tell me... is there something you wish you would have known about the last resort you stayed at??

The next Oasis Edit drops October 5th, but this month has two things I actually want you to read before you book anything else this year.

First: what traveling during hurricane season actually means, and the exact point where it goes from "keep an eye on it" to "we need to talk."

Second: San José del Cabo versus Cabo San Lucas, because I just spent a week choosing between them myself, and they are not the same trip.

My husband and I collectively decided the food this trip didn't live up to what we're used to. But honestly, we didn't come to Los Cabos for what was on our plates.

We came for marlin, and we got them. Every catch and release turned into its own personal challenge. And one near miss from a missile with a sword attached later, we accomplished our goal.

Let me tell you about hibachi night. The chef running our table was named Charli, and he had the whole performance down. All the flair, the jokes, and the timing. He was genuinely so funny.

By the second course, I had stopped watching the food flying around on the grill and started watching him. And I literally couldn't tell if he was performing for us or if he was just as into it as we were.

You can’t train that. That’s the thing about staff who actually love their job… you can't train that into someone. You either walk into a resort where the staff means it, or they don't.

I've stayed places with better thread counts and bigger pools than Secrets Puerto Los Cabos, but none of them had a Charli. It's a shame, but this is the part that never makes the brochure, and it's the part I'm still thinking about.

Ratings will tell you about the amenities, but they’ll never tell you whether anyone working there is glad you showed up and actually acts like it. Now, don’t take my braggin on Charli as saying that the resort itself was bad. It wasn't in the least. But I knew that before I booked it. What it had up its sleeve was staff that make your stay memorable.

My belief remains true that you can build a beautiful pool, have the best entertainment schedule, and put together a great cocktail menu, but what you can't fake is a staff that actually wants to be there. Secrets Puerto Los Cabos had that, and it's the reason I keep thinking about this trip weeks later, not the room.

So, tell me... what's the best staff moment you've ever had on a trip? I want to know where it was and what they did to make your stay so special!

A honeymoon doesn't get a redo. That's why every detail on this list and more gets checked before you even book. Room category, resort energy, whether the week will actually feel like the one you pictured when you got engaged.

The Escape package exists for the single-stop resort trip, where getting it right really matters. Starting at $145, it's built to catch what a five-minute Google search won't. If this is the trip you don't want to gamble on, the link's in my bio.

Planning a honeymoon comes with a budget question nobody actually answers for you: how much goes where.

How much is the hotel supposed to eat up? What's normal to spend on excursions? Am I overpaying for the flight before I've even looked at the room?

I put together six pages that answer exactly that, broken down by category, so you're working from real numbers instead of guessing and hoping you're not wildly off.

All you need to do is look up the cost of flights and estimate the rest from there to know if you're in the ballpark or totally off base.
