About Me

Beach. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.
Beach. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.

In 2014, my passion for travel evolved into a career in helping others take the vacation they deserve. I struggled finding someone who would listen to what I wanted, so I decided to become that person!

People have different vacation goals and different budgets. I get to know my clients through a free consultation that allows me to curate the perfect "for you" experience. Vacations are not one size fits all!

I am not a keyboard travel agent. I visit these destinations. I stay at and/or tour these resorts. I sail on these ships. I sleep in the beds. I eat the food. I do it so that I can share first-hand knowledge with my clients and better match them to a destination/property/ship/tour or whatever it is they are looking for because everything looks good on the internet! I am here to decipher to noise.

Yes, I make sure I am up to date on destinations, protocols, resorts, and cruise line trainings. But honestly, it's boots on the ground experience that sets me apart.

I have traveled to more than 35 countries, and I have been booking clients to many of them for over 9 years. I have over 120 personal nights on cruise ships across multiple brands, on both oceans and rivers, as well as multiple cabin type experiences. My knowledge, experience and expertise allows me to serve you on a personal level.

 

 

All Inclusive Specialist

I have been to countless all inclusive resorts in Mexico and throughout the Caribbean. I have stayed at adult only properties, family friendly properties, higher-end resorts, more budget-friendly resorts, and just about everything in between. There are many differences between brands, as well as resorts within a brand. You can't tell if something is "good" based on price. A resort is "good" if it checks off what you want out of the experience. Let's set up a free consultation to see what best fits you and your budget!

Miller European Getaway
Reviewed By Tamran - Hopkinsville, Kentucky | Traveled to Europe
Phenomenal doesn’t give enough justice to Bridget. She handled every aspect of our travel desires from just a rough outline we gave her. Bridget’s experience in travel and destinations was invaluable. When you have someone who’s “been there”, it truly makes a difference. She had our itinerary down to each pickup, takeoff, landing, times, tours, and even downtime with suggestions along the way. Bridget remained a text/call away our whole trip in case we needed anything; we didn’t though, she nailed it and had communicated with us precisely. Every detail was handled for us when we arrived until we came home. Bridget makes sure you not only get value for your money but you also get pure enjoyment.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
