    Waikiki Condos: Darmic Waikiki Banyan Review

    June 7, 2016 / No Comments

    If you’re planning a dream vacation to Hawaii, and looking for Waikiki condos, I can tell you that Darmic Waikiki Banyan is a perfect choice. I just enjoyed a lovely four nights there, and I’d recommend it to anyone. These self-catering one bedroom condos have everything you need for a vacation to Hawaii. The thing I loved most about the condo was the location. It was a short one block walk to Waikiki Beach, and yet, I was never disturbed by noise, something that is hard to find in Waikiki. All of the condos at Darmic Waikiki Banyan are one-bedroom, and the condo was much larger than I expected. The…

    NINETEEN-A Stylish Brighton Guesthouse In England

    June 5, 2016 / No Comments

    I thought it was the best decision ever to stay in Brighton rather than make the trek to London for a recent flight leaving from Gatwick Airport. It was an even better decision to stay at NINETEEN,  a 7 bedroom luxury B&B in the heart of Brighton. I was greeted by the very hospitable Mark and Arif, who made me feel right at home as soon as I walked into the charming Victorian townhouse. The Superior King Room At NINETEEN Brighton Guesthouse The first thing I noticed about the Superior King room was all of the light pouring in. I love rooms that get lots of light. It gave the room…

    Athens Greece Hotels: Hotel Kerameion, An Apartment Hotel In Athens

    May 24, 2016 / No Comments

    When you’re traveling, there is nothing like arriving at a hotel that makes you feel like it is a home away from home. Indeed, that is exactly what I felt when I arrived at Hotel Kerameion, an apartment hotel in Athens. Stavros, the owner, was kind enough to meet me where the taxi had to drop me off, and even to carry my luggage for me. He immediately made me feel welcome, and even helped me with getting some laundry started even though it was pretty late at night when I arrived. He even helped me carry my luggage to the taxis upon my departure. I felt like he was…

    The Kinsterna Hotel In Monemvasia: Not Just A Hotel, But An Experience

    May 22, 2016 / 4 Comments

    From the moment I arrived at the Kinsterna Hotel just outside of Monemvasia in Agios Stefanos, I felt like I was walking into a fairy tale. I was led out onto the moonlit terrace of the 13th-century Byzantine mansion and shown the vineyards, while the air hung heavy with scents of jasmine, honeysuckle, and mint. Then, I was taken by golf cart to my room, and what a cocoon it was. My Premium Residence was spacious and inviting. A wooden beamed ceiling and modern light fixtures added character and warmth to the room. Home made liquer waited for me with two cordial glasses. There was nothing for me to do now but…

    Where To Stay In Athens: AthensWas, A Spectacular Athens Hotel That Combines Luxury With Design

    May 18, 2016 / No Comments

    I recently stayed at the AthensWas hotel in Athens, Greece, and I didn’t want to leave this lovely boutique hotel. Everything about the hotel from the design, to the location, to the incredible staff was flawless. If you are wondering where to stay in Athens, the AthensWas is an Athens hotel I would definitely recommend. The Rooms At AthensWas Athens Hotel I absolutely loved my room at the AthensWas Hotel. This Athens hotel has managed to combine comfort with stylish design in a way that left me feeling at home and relaxed from the minute I walked in. I stayed in a Superior Deluxe room, and it was obvious that…

About Me

I am always looking for the perfect escape, the perfect paradise, the kind of place that tosses your cares into the sea. Fortunately, I have discovered many! I created this site to show you where to go and how to get there. My goal is to show you that Paradise is only a plane ticket (or boat ride) away. I have inspired many others to travel and to create a better life. I am available for inspirational speaking, coaching, writing, travel planning, and photography.
