My Story
As an avid traveler and cultural explorer, I believe the best trips are the ones that leave you inspired, connected, and craving more. Whether it’s finding that tucked-away boutique hotel, experiencing a once-in-a-lifetime local tradition, or tasting a dish you’ll dream about for years, I’m here to curate those moments for you.
Travel Style
I love going beyond the tourist trail to uncover authentic, local experiences, whether it’s a hands-on cooking class in Tuscany, a street art tour in Mexico City, or a slow afternoon in a hidden coastal village. I’m all about meaningful travel that connects you to the heart of a place. I’m also passionate about making family travel magical (and stress-free!). From kid-friendly stays with personality to flexible itineraries that blend adventure, rest, and fun for all ages, I help families create lifelong memories without the overwhelm.

Booking was done promptly and kept us in the loop with any extras or changes. Top notch! Alerted us to special activities on board. Personable and easy to work with!

Booking our Disney Very Merrytime Cruise through Maribel made everything feel easy and well thought out. She helped us choose a stateroom in a location with less motion, placed us next to our parents’ room, and made sure we were prepared for special events like Pirate Night.
Her tips, like bringing magnetic hooks for the cabin and magnets to decorate our door, added small but meaningful touches that made the experience extra special, especially for our child. The planning was seamless and stress-free, and we’d absolutely book through her again.

I can't recommend Maribel enough! She came through for me with a last-minute trip and handled everything, from finding the perfect place to stay to organizing all the details with a detailed itinerary. She made sure we had everything we needed and was always just a message away if I had any questions. The trip went off without a hitch, and I felt completely taken care of the whole time. Maribel is reliable, thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond. If you're looking for a travel advisor who takes the stress out of planning and makes your trip seamless, Maribel is the one!

Maribel did a great job for us. She helped me book the hotels and rental car with the perfect locations and times, and to facilitate my travel she sent me and pdf schedule very easy to read with all the booking confirmations and addresses. I definitely will use her service again, good pricing and exceptional service.

Christmas at Sea: Your Insider Guide to Disney’s Very Merrytime Cruise
From the moment we stepped onto the Disney Fantasy, it truly felt like Christmas had wrapped itself around the ship. The decor was warm, elegant, and festive without being over the top, with giant trees, garlands, and magical holiday details everywhere you turned. The service was incredible in that quiet, effortless way Disney does so well, with Cast Members anticipating needs, surprising us with little magic tricks, and adding special cabin touches that made the stay even more joyful. Even Castaway Cay carried the holiday spirit, with festive decor set against the turquoise water, making the Bahamas and Disney’s private cays feel like a perfect blend of Christmas magic and tropical escape.

A Birthday Rockstar: On Board VV Scarlet Lady
This Virgin Voyages Fire and Sunset Soirées sailing ended up being one of the most memorable birthday trips I’ve ever taken.

Between the energy of Key West and the calm beaches of Bimini, this cruise felt like the perfect mix of fun, pampering, and connection.
