We love the West Bay area of Roatan Island. It’s small and relaxing and offers the best snorkeling right from the shore. It also has some great restaurants and bars. West Bay’s food scene is a mix of casual beach bars, fun night spots, and a few upscale splurges. Most are easy to reach on foot if you’re staying in West Bay, and all have…
Are you planning a trip to Roatan Island? It’s one of our favorite spots in the world, and we recommend splitting your time between West Bay and West End. West End has a more local and bohemian vibe than West Bay and is perfect for travelers focused on diving. You won’t find a long sandy beach here, but you will find great restaurants, lively bars,…
Rio de Janeiro is the perfect spot to mix relaxation, sightseeing, and nightlife. And there’s no better base than the Hotel Emiliano – a stylish Small Luxury Hotels property right in the heart of Copacabana Beach and just a short stroll to Ipanema. We spent five nights here and loved every minute. Here’s why we loved it and how we saved nearly $300 a night…

That’s why we wanted to boil it down to our favorite 10 that you can still book today. Are they all perfect? No. But we find that Airbnbs offer an affordable and comfortable way to…
A trip to Punta Cana is mostly about unwinding on its stunning beaches — but adding these beach clubs, restaurants, and excursions will elevate your adventure and boost your knowledge about this beautiful Caribbean destination. Whether you’re building your own itinerary or staying at an all-inclusive, you may want to try our favorite things we did on our last trip to Dominican Republic’s gorgeous Bavaro…
We recently stayed on Bavaro Beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic — which is one of the most gorgeous high-traffic vacation spots in the world. With direct flights from many cities — and its location less than 30-minutes from the airport — Bavaro Beach is an easy and ideal place to unwind without a lot of hassle getting there. But of course, all this comes…
We’ve spent a lot of time exploring the beaches of Mexico but have recently fell in love with the beautiful cities of the interior, too. The country’s capital is a bustling metropolis with seemingly endless neighborhoods and activities to add to your to-do list. So what should you explore if you only have one full day? Or what can you do to make the most…
Of course, the answer is YES, but there are some things to consider before going. Here’s what we learned on our quick trip to this beautiful island.
We’ve had an amazing time on this trip to Colombia, which continued in Cartagena. We also had incredible weather despite the rainy forecast. We will leave Cartagena with love in our hearts, but we had mixed reviews about the experience. Let’s start with the things we loved:
