My husband and I are empty-nesters and we travel as much as $ and points allow. If the location has wine tastings/vineyards, all the better!

Travel style

My husband and I are empty-nesters and go on adventures every chance we get. I’m a big believer in 5-day long weekends with luxury hotels and am always looking for a great bargain on them. If I can earn points at the same time, all the better! When exploring somewhere new, I search for restaurants the locals recommend and a good wine bar. My itineraries combine sightseeing with time to be spontaneous. (When we meet, ask me about how I came to attend the Oxford-Cambridge rowing races along the Thames!)

Kelly's reviews

Kelly did a great job booking my cruise including all of the amenities I had hoped for. She also booked all of my shore excursions, which were wonderful. I definitely got the most out of each of my port stops and Kelly even offered dining suggestions in Cabo! She was communicative and extremely helpful throughout the booking process.

Kelly booked us at a lovely hotel in an area that made it easy to get to our destinations either on foot, taxi or the Underground. We were close to a lovely quiet park when we needed a respite from our activities. The hotel amenities were plentiful and the restaurants were convenient with friendly and prompt servers and delicious food. We would happily choose the JW Marriott Grosvenor House again and will definitely recommend it to others.
