Magical vacation fun!
Hi! My name is Amanda, welcome to my page.
I am a luxury travel adviser with Sweetbay Travel Concierge. I was bitten by the travel bug in college. Even now, as a mom to four boys, I can't stop driving my husband nuts by dreaming about our next adventure. My travels have taken me to many spots starting of course in my home state of Michigan, all the way to Costa Rica, France, California and beyond.
While I have experienced many unique destinations, my passion for travel lies with the ones you take with you. Family trips! From family to friends, my greatest pleasure comes in creating loving and joy filled memories. Multigenerational, extrended family/friends, honeymoons, or a special getaway for mom and dad - all things family is where I thrive.
Whether you are headed to a thrilling theme park or the whitest sandy beaches, I am ready to help get you there. As your personal travel concierge I strive to get to know you and your family to curate the best possible recommendations for your trip. And with over 120 providers, I can help you experience the trip of a lifetime.
So let's start creating your next adventure!

Amazing first family vacation!
Reviewed By Delighted Disney Dave - Sunrise, FL | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Amanda was wonderful to work with in planning our vacation. She was professional, knowledgeable, available, and she really cared that we had a great vacation. One of the things that she did was looking for the most affordable and convenient. I was so impressed with her availability during our trip. She was responded immediately, and she was kind and never made me feel like I was bothering her or interrupting. I will use Amanda again for our next vacation and I highly recommend her.
