About Me
I am a mom, wife, business owner, lover of Disney and love planning vacations for YOU! I have a wonderful husband of 19 years with 2 boys, ages 16 and 14.
These two have been going to Disney since they were 4 & 6 years old and know all things Disney and their way around property better than most people that have been going for their lifetime.We always have sports on TV and basketball on the closet door going on, wiffle ball outside and friends in and out the doors. Everyone knows that we are "Disney People" and we love it that way!!! However, I am also certified and trained on many other destinations throughout the Caribbean and United States as well as various Cruise Lines.
What sets me apart is my unwavering dedication to crafting personalized travel experiences that cater to your unique preferences and desires. Whether you're dreaming of basking on a tropical beach, hiking through rugged landscapes, or immersing yourself in vibrant cultures, I have the expertise and resources to make your travel dreams a reality. I am also proud to say that I am a Certified Autism Travel Professional.

Please read this review, because I don’t know Malissa personally. But my experience with her helped my family and I have the vacation that we always dreamed of, come true.
Since I was a little kid, I’ve always wanted to go to Hawaii. So, I saved for five years. I didn’t even know where to start to build this vacation, I was so nervous. Buy my first conversation with Malissa change all that. She was kind, down to earth, extremely helpful. She did not overwhelm me with 1 million things at one time. She broke it all down for me so that I can understand each decision I was making. She’s very trustworthy and understood the importance of having a vacation go to the way that you imagine.
I highly recommend you use Malissa for every vacation. I know I will!

I recently worked with Malissa from to plan my trip to Clearwater Beach, and it was fantastic. Malissa was super responsive and tailored everything to fit my preferences perfectly. She also gave great suggestions for things to do. Malissa made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend her for your travel needs.
-Heather
Malissa helped us plan the most wonderful vacation to Walt Disney World. With 3 young children and so many options to pick from (hotels, dinning, transportation options etc), the thought of planning our family vacation seemed very whelming but Malissa not only made the planning process extremely easy but also fun as well. She was very knowledgeable about all the ins and outs of parks/resorts. Malissa made all our reservations from restaurants, to transportation to and from the airport as well as our stroller rentals. She booked our party tickets as well. It all went seamlessly. Malissa also had amazing suggestions and was very easy to get a hold of and was very responsive to any questions I had. She even helped my father book a trip to join us for a few days and months after booking she was able to find him a promotional rate where he got a discounted room at his same resort. She did this on her and then reached out to us to let us know that she saved him almost $200.
Malissa was always quick to answer all of my questions during the vacation planning process! It was very easy to book a trip with Malissa. She found the perfect resort for my family.

Quick to answer questions, always offering useful tips, full of great insider info, and by being on top of it 24/7, she couldn’t have made it any smoother. She managed all quirks and tricks which made the trip stress-free, and one we can’t wait to do again (with Malissa’s help, of course!). Thank you Malissa!
