Just finished working on my updated Universal Studios training! I’m constantly learning to make sure I can serve my clients the best that I can!

What a week! I helped my clients secure some pretty exciting events for their trips in December the past week including Minnie's Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Dessert Party for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party (woah that is a mouthful), Candlelight Procession Dinner Package with Josh Groban (ahhh so cool), Keys to the Kingdom Tour, and multiple hard to get dining reservations. This included me staying awake until midnight for some and waking up at 6am for others. It was exhuasting but exhilarating at the same time because sharing the joy with my clients is priceless.
Throwback to the dream lights on Cinderella Castle (Disney please bring them back!)

I would love to help you plan your next Disney Vacation!

One of my favorite things to do while staying at a Disney resort…playing co****le! I know it sounds so silly but there is something so relaxing and magical about playing games at a Disney Resort that just makes me smile! They have a few different games to choose from depending which resort you choose including chess, shuffleboard, ping pong and co****le! Which one is your favorite?

WAIT…LET ME ASK MICHELE!
Sandals & Beaches Edition

“Which Sandals or Beaches resort should I choose?”

This is one of those questions I get asked all the time and honestly, there isn't one Sandals or Beaches resort that is perfect for everyone.

Are you looking for a romantic getaway with your significant other?
Do you want a beautiful beach and a quieter atmosphere?
Maybe you want lots of restaurants, pools, entertainment and things to do.
Or maybe you're traveling with the kids and want a resort that keeps everyone happy.

And then there’s the destination itself.

Jamaica?
Saint Lucia?
Turks & Caicos?
Antigua?
Bahamas?

They all have a different feel and choosing the right resort can make a BIG difference in your vacation.

That’s where I come in. I don't just send you a list of resorts and say, “Pick one!” I ask questions about what you actually want from your vacation, then help match you with the resort and destination that makes the most sense for YOU.

Because an all-inclusive vacation should feel effortless from the moment you start planning.

So if you're thinking about Sandals or Beaches and have no idea where to start…

Just ask...Michele
