About Me

Specializing in cruise and beach getaways

Castaway Cay Adults Only Beach
Castaway Cay Adults Only Beach

I’m Shari Smith, and while I’m new to the travel industry in 2025, I’ve spent the last decade deeply immersed in discovering new destinations and creating unforgettable travel memories. As I became an empty nester, the opportunity to travel opened up in ways I never imagined and I’ve tried to take every opportunity to explore especially by sea. Cruising has become one of my favorite ways to travel, and Disney cruises hold a special place in my heart. While Disney cruises are often thought of as a family-friendly getaway, they also offer an amazing experience for adults only! There’s just something magical about Castaway Cay - it's possibly my favorite spot on Earth!

For over 12 years, I’ve been the go-to planner for our large family vacations to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I know how meaningful and sometimes challenging it can be to organize trips that bring everyone together, and I love making those experiences stress-free and fun. I’m also always on the hunt for the next best beach, because there's nothing better than finding that perfect spot to unwind.

I’ve completed the Disney College of Knowledge and Royal Caribbean University, so I’m equipped with the latest insights and expertise to help you plan the perfect getaway. Whether you're dreaming of a Disney cruise, a Royal Caribbean adventure, a beach escape, or a family getaway I’m here to help you find your new favorite place to visit. I’d love to help make it happen. Let’s start planning your next adventure!

Family Vacation in the Outer Banks
