Sandals resorts are known for their all-inclusive amenities including water and land sports, dining, premium beverages, and more. But did you know that there are even more surprising things to discover about a Sandals vacation? Take a look at the list below for the top five surprising things about a Sandals vacation!

Normally, I set some resolutions for the new year because I am one of those strange individuals who loves them, makes them, and knows that most likely, I won’t keep them. However, this year feels different. 2020 showed me very sharply all of the things I took for granted, especially when it came to spending time with friends and family and traveling.

Did you know that in addition to the popular Disney theme park resorts in California and Florida, Disney also has two beach resorts? One is Disney’s Hilton Head Island in Hilton Head, SC, and the other is Disney’s Vero Beach Resort in Vero Beach, FL, just an hour and a half drive from Walt Disney World.

One of the common misconceptions of a trip to Walt Disney World is that it’s outrageously expensive. While there are various elements that a traveler might feel are overpriced, there are many ways that a family can visit WDW in an economical and affordable way by remaining savvy with money-saving strategies, packing smart, and planning ahead. While there are some fixed costs like tickets, lodging, and more, Disney can be done in an affordable way without sacrificing any fun!

There’s nothing quite like a vacation to the Walt Disney World resort, and sometimes it can feel like there are so many things to remember! I am here to help simplify your planning and preparation to provide you with 10 tips for what to pack before your next Disney trip! (Hint: Some of these can be applied to any Disney vacation around the world!)

With many holiday plans uprooted this season, families are pivoting (#2020) to completely reconsider what celebrating during the holidays might mean. In times of uncertainty partnered with a desire to “get out,” an equally special alternative to a traditional Christmas vacation might be to rent a cabin or a house for the week of Christmas and New Years, and quarantine with immediate family to create lasting (socially distant) memories that only 2020 can bring.
