    Where to Stay in Los Cabos: 7 Boutique Hotels That Make Baja Feel Unforgettable

    June 15, 2026 / No Comments

    Where should you stay in Los Cabos if you want ocean views, local flavor, calm mornings, and a hotel that feels personal?  Los Cabos can be lively, peaceful, romantic, artistic, or adventure-filled, depending on where you book. That is why choosing the right hotel matters as much as choosing the destination. The best boutique hotels in Los Cabos are not only about pretty rooms. They help shape the whole trip. Some put you close to galleries and restaurants in San José del Cabo. Others bring you near surf breaks, quiet beaches, rooftop views, or farm-style dining.  If you are deciding where to stay in Los Cabos, start with the type…

    MiraMar: Stay In A Beach Casa In Yelapa, Mexico

    February 23, 2018 / 4 Comments

    If you’ve ever imagined having your own casa in Mexico that overlooks the beach, you can make that dream come true at MiraMar Yelapa. MiraMar is located in the fishing village of Yelapa, Mexico. It is made up of 5 houses that all have gorgeous views of the bay. I loved falling asleep to the sounds of ocean waves each night and lying in the hammock on my private patio while watching the moon rise each night. I stayed in Casa Marietas 1, which had stunning views. It’s the perfect place to stay in Yelapa if you are traveling alone, or for a romantic getaway for a couple. One of…

    Vereda: A Jungle Oasis Place To Stay In Yelapa, Mexico

    February 19, 2018 / 2 Comments

    When I entered the jungle grounds of Vereda, in Yelapa, Mexico, I felt my entire body relax. After the busy madness of Puerto Vallarta, arriving at Vereda seemed like something out of a dream. Set in the jungle part of Yelapa, I walked down the magical vined walkway to a Paradise full of butterflies, iguanas, and beautiful jungle birds. For my first few nights, I stayed in the Palapa Primavera, a gorgeous palapa cabin that brought so much nature inside the cabin. I loved having my own private outdoor area, and the way that jungle vines provided the ceiling for my bathroom. My nights were filled with sounds of crickets,…

    The San Jose Airbnb Haven You Will Want To Stay At In Costa Rica

    October 23, 2016 / No Comments

    If you need a place to stay in San Jose, I highly recommend staying at Jerry’s City Oasis. This San Jose Airbnb is set in a 1948 Costa Rican home. The home is beautifully decorated and felt like a true haven in the busy city. What really makes this San Jose Airbnb stand out is the tranquil garden just perfect for sitting and relaxing in peace.   The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I’ve found on any of my travels, and I slept so good. The sheets and blankets on the bed were high quality, which was a nice touch that you usually don’t find at $30/night Airbnb’s. My room was…

    An Alternative To Staying In Touristy Waikiki: Rent This Condo In Makaha

    June 27, 2016 / 2 Comments

    Many people who visit the island of Oahu in Hawaii for vacation don’t like it as much as the other islands. This is because they never leave Waikiki. Waikiki is good for the type of person who is looking for the shopping, nightlife, and variety of restaurants. But, if you’ve come to Hawaii to enjoy the beach and nature in a more tranquil setting, you want to stay outside of Waikiki. Makaha is an excellent alternative that will give you more of a true Hawaiian experience. This main floor condo at the Makaha Beach Cabanas is right on the beach. Not only that, Makaha Beach is one of the least crowded beaches…

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.
