About Me

Ears to Planning Disney Travel!
Ears to Planning Disney Travel!

Disney Destinations have my heart.  I have been to Walt Disney World more times than I can count.  Every time I walk down Main Street, I feel like a little girl, but the best part is seeing the magic in my children's eyes.  I don't think I will ever not tear up when I see the castle for the first time each trip.  Not only have I cruised Disney Cruise Line multiple times, I have stayed at every Disney resort at Walt Disney World and every Disney resort in Disneyland.  Because of this, I am able to assist my clients in finding the perfect resort or cruise for their unique family.

 

Whether you are thinking of going to WDW, Disneyland or a Disney Cruise it is so helpful to have someone who has been to Disney Parks a ridiculous number of times and cruised on many of their ships.  There are so many nuances to Disney travel that you will want to have someone in your corner that has "been there and done that". Some of the reasons that my guests reach out to me to help plan their Disney Vacations include:

- Information Overload- every mom group and Tik-Toker have their suggestions for Disney trips.  Often times this information is out of date or completely inaccurate.  Having me as your professional travel advisor that specializes in Disney Destinations means that you get a true expert in all things Disney.  You won't have to be searchng for information because you will have me!

-Too Many Resorts and Cruises to Choose From: Where do you even start?  Which resort is best for your family?  Which ship would be best?  I have stayed at every single Disney theme park resort in the US.  I have videos of all of them to help you choose the correct layout for your family.  I know the ins and outs of these resorts and even which room categories will likely fit your family the best.  

-Using a Disney Specialist is Expensive.  NOPE!  Aside from my concierge services, I do not charge a planning fee.  You get my extensive knowledge of the parks, resorts and cruises at no fee whatsoever.  I also provide you with everything you need to have the most amazing time.  From park maps to restaurant suggestions, you will have all the information to have the most magical vacation ever!

-There is too much to choose from! Disney is a lot.  A lot of restaurants, resorts, rides and experiences.  Let me help you choose which would be best for your family.  Should you get the Dining Plan?  Which shore excursions should you do? What about which rides might my kids be scared of?  I've got you.  I will go over all of these things with you and as you get closer to your time of travel, I will send you frequent updates to help make your planning simple.  And if ever things get overwhelming or you have questions, you will have my personal cell phone number to call and a link to my appointment software to set up times to go over all of your questions.  My job is to take the stress out of a Disney trip!

 

Whenever you are ready to start planning your dream Disney trip, just send me an email and we will get started right away!  I am genuinely excited to have the opportunity to plan your Disney Adventure and I look forward to making it a truly enchanting experience for you and your loved ones.

Thank You
Reviewed By Sue - St. Louis, MO | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
I am writing to thank you for the amazing Mexican vacation that you planned for us. Dreams is an wonderful resort and we were treated like friends from the moment we arrived. The staff catered to our every whim...even before we knew that we had one. Our grandchildren of course love the swim up bar and became quite at ordering all sorts of fruity drinks. Our son in law's birthday was celebrated by family and staff alike.

My family and I cannot thank you enough for all of your planning to ensure that we had a vacation to remember! Thank you too for the gift bag we received to help us prepare for the trip. My husband and I are discussing where we might like to go next. Be assured that we will contact you when the time arrives.

20 Year return to Walt Disney World
Reviewed By Missy - Imperial, MO | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
I was given Melissa's information from an old high school friend. It had been 20 years since I had last been to Walt Disney World. I wanted to celebrate with my mom a 20-year return to Disney, my 41st birthday, and celebrate my dad who had passed in 2015. My childhood family vacations were always to Disney. He loved Disney so much. Melissa planned the most mind-blowing return/celebration trip. We stayed at 3 different resorts. One being Animal Kingdom Lodge in a Savannah View room...hello giraffes. She made excellent restaurant suggestions, FastPass options, and how to incorporate my dad into every aspect of this trip with my mom. She kept in touch with me during my trip. even when I was having moments of missing my dad, knowing he would have loved EVERYTHING about Disney now. Having Melissa help me plan this return was something no one else could have done. She truly understood what I wanted and needed out of this trip.

Best first solo trip ever!
Reviewed By Missy - Imperial, MO | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
I had planned a solo trip to Walt Disney World for May of 2020...well COVID happened. Instead of canceling out my trip, Melissa suggested I just reschedule it for later in the year. I chose September of 2020.

Can I say, that was one of the BEST trips ever. It was my first solo trip. Melissa made sure I had everything I needed to have the most magical of times. She got the best resort for me that was available at the time which was Caribbean Beach . I had a preferred room close to the Skyliner. She made helpful suggestions for restaurants for me to try out. All in all, everything about this trip was TOP NOTCH!! She kept in contact with me as well during my trip to make sure everything was going smoothly.

Disney Made Easy
Reviewed By Kris - Rhode Island | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
I was so stressed out planning a trip to Disney World, but then I was referred to Melissa and she made everything so crazy easy! She sent me so much info, but didn't overwhelm me as she kind of spoon fed me with little tidbits hear and there. I could never have done this trip without her and will have her plan all my travels from this point on!
Melissa Walaitis responded
"You are so welcome! It was truly my pleasure! I can't wait to start planning that Hawaiian vacation with you next. It will be paradise!"
