Staying at Belle Mare Plage, Mauritius

Staying at Belle Mare Plage, Mauritius

Posted on February 18, 2015 by Lesley | 24 Comments

My stay at Constance Belle Mare Plage, Mauritius was hosted by the hotel. I did, however, carefully choose the property based on all of the possible options in the country. I selected them because of their excellent TripAdvisor rating, their star rating, their combination of family-friendly with luxury, and their beach. I spend as much time in hotels as in…

Why This Waikiki Hotel Trumps the Rest in Luxury

Posted on November 23, 2014 by Lesley | 3 Comments

We visited a number of fantastic properties when we were in Oahu. Each resort offered different services, amenities, activities, and luxuries that set them above the crowd, but when it comes to luxury, nowhere tops Trump Hotel Waikiki. They offer signature hotel programs designed to help every member of the family feel comfortable. With specialty programs for kids, pets, and wellness,…

A 2 Minute Look at Hilton Hawaiian Village, Oahu

Posted on November 9, 2014 by Lesley | 2 Comments

Photos and videos can’t do Hilton Hawaiian Village in Waikiki, Oahu justice. The village offers everything a family could possibly need. Pools, water slides, 20 different on-site restaurants, shopping, water sports, the ocean, a luau and other entertainment, a spa, a lagoon, children’s programs, and daily resort activities make the Hilton a family-friendly resort destination at Waikiki Beach. Here’s a glimpse…

Beach at Hard Rock Riviera Maya

Hard Rock Riviera Maya – My Favorite All-Inclusive Hotel

Posted on June 3, 2014 by Lesley | 0 Comments

After returning from an ocean view suite at Hard Rock Riviera Maya, I realized that Hard Rock properties are my favorite all-inclusive hotels. It’s simple; they have the best, most friendly service, modern, creative rooms, kick-ass entertainment and amenities, and better dining options than most cities. I thought it was just Hard Rock Puerto Vallarta that I loved, but Hard Rock Riviera Maya…

Resort Activities at Marriott's Harbour Lake

Time to Share – Marriott’s Harbour Lake

Posted on October 13, 2013 by Lesley | 3 Comments

I thought timeshares were for older people and they restricted you to one location indefinitely. How naive is that? Then, I had the opportunity to visit Marriott’s Harbour Lake and my opinion completely changed. The property offers a maritime theme with a pirate-inspired pool, an interactive water playground, and a miniature golf course. The activities schedule includes experiences for the…

Living”stone” It Up in Curacao

Posted on July 24, 2013 by Lesley | 2 Comments

Athena and I have inspected every aspect of Livingstone Jan Thiel Resort in Curacao and the verdict is in – this place rocks! From the over-sized room and the enclosed patio to the luxurious pool and the luscious surroundings, the Livingstone is family-accommodations at their best. This four-star resort is centrally located in the Jan Thiel Bay with over 100 beautiful villas and apartments. Our villa…

Hyatt-Place

Friendly Service At Its Finest: Hyatt Place Atlanta Downtown

Posted on January 8, 2013 by Lesley | 0 Comments

“Welcome back, Ms. Carter,” was the greeting I heard as I walked through the door at the hotel. Welcoming smiles, personal attentiveness, and attention to detail make Hyatt Place Atlanta our return accommodations when we are downtown Atlanta, Georgia. Marty Morris, Director of Sales, at Hyatt Place Atlanta made our reservations. Excitedly, I mentioned that I’d be going to Zoo…

Brookstone Lodge, Asheville

All the Amenities at A Fraction of the Price: Brookstone Lodge, Asheville

Posted on December 16, 2012 by Lesley | 1 Comments

Biltmore Estate was on my 2012 bucket list and time was running out so this weekend we made our way to Asheville, NC to experience the grandeur and beauty of Biltmore at Christmas. Brookstone Lodge is just minutes from Biltmore and was our home base for the weekend. It offers all of the amenities and charm of other, excessively expensive, accommodations and…

Omni Charlotte Hotel

A Million Dollar View – The Omni Charlotte Hotel

Posted on June 13, 2012 by Lesley | 5 Comments

Most four and five diamond hotels offer more luxuries than you could possibly use during one stay. Who uses a phone in the bathroom anyway? And I don’t even know the difference between Egyptian cotton, satin, or silk sheets. There are some luxuries, though, that make me say, “wow” when I walk into a hotel and a hotel room. The Omni Charlotte Hotel envelopes…
