Fabulous Florence in 2 Days!
It had been years since I have visited the stunning city of Florence, Italy and my wife, Anne, had never been. Anne was booked to sing on a cruise through the Italian Riviera and lucky me, she invited me to go along as her guest. Its was a pretty good gig for me! The itinerary included an overnight in Florence. What a perfect way for me to rediscover this city and for Anne to experience it for the first time. So we planned a mini vacation while on the cruise and decided to do

My Myconian Life For A Day
As many of you know, Mykonos is one of my favorite islands in the world. I spent both my honeymoon and 50th birthday celebrations there. Although it is always my preference to spend an extended amount of time in this one perfect place, I was fortunate enough this summer to at least spend one day and night of bliss indulging in all things Mykonos. When my clients are wanting to book Mykonos as their vacation destination, one of the first things that I ask them is if they want


Weekend Getaway to Beautiful Cancun
My wife and I were looking for a quick getaway from New York City to celebrate our anniversary. It needed to be an easy direct flight, a location not to far from the destination airport, and a property that would provide some much needed quiet and serenity along with fun. I contacted the stunning Ritz Carlton in Cancun to see if they could accommodate us for the weekend. Cancun is a direct flight from JFK and the Ritz Carlton is only a 15 minute drive from the airport. And wh


Clubbing at Ritz-Carlton Washington DC!
Being a travel agent does have its perks. And one of those wonderful perks, is that I get to explore amazing luxury properties and share the experiences with my clients. As an agent for Tzell Travel, one of most important luxury hotel properties is the Ritz-Carlton. I had always been aware of the impeccable service and beautiful rooms at these properties, but I have a new reason for loving the Ritz Carlton hotels: The Club Experience.

Our British Invasion!
Sometimes I forget how much I truly love London. Being a New Yorker for so many years, London always felt too similar to the Big Apple to justify spending so much time there. Once again, I have proven myself wrong. London is a very special place. My wife, Anne Steele, is a touring singer and made her London debut last month. We decided to build a long weekend around the whole experience. Our experience began with the ultimate of luxury at the stunning Hotel Cafe Royal. As a S


The Magic of Ravello, Italy
As a travel designer, I have the fortunate ability to see so many beautiful places around the world. It is a rare thing for me to be left speechless at the beauty and magic of any destination. My recent to Hotel Caruso in Ravello has left me without the proper words to describe its beauty. From the moment we stepped onto the property, the staff helped us feel comfortable and welcome. They provided us with a personal tour of the hotel ending at the true star of the hotel, the


A Roman Paradise
Rome has always been my favorite city in the world. There is just something about how I feel when I am there. It feels like I am blessed with walking the same streets as the ancient Romans once walked and can share in their history. I recently had a short 3 day trip to Rome and was fortunate enough to stay at the glorious Hotel Eden located at the top of the Spanish Steps. From the impeccable service, to the stunning rooftop restaurant, to the gorgeous guest room, this proper


Plan your Trip to Provincetown!
Provincetown has always been one of my favorite destinations. It is one of those amazing destinations that you never want to leave. From the gorgeous views to the clever shops and delicious restaurants, this town will forever hold a special place in my heart. My wife and I just returned from a wonderful week that included a fabulous stay in one of my new favorite properties, The Salt House Inn. This adorable property is owned by Salt Hotels created by David Bowd. I was fortun


Kelli's Amsterdam Adventure
There is just something special about Amsterdam. Every single time that I visit, it feels like it is never long enough. Fortunately, this trip, I was able to stay for three solid nights and once again, loved every moment. What is it that I love about this unique city? The canals, the people, the history and the magic you feel when you stroll down a street to a stunning flower market. This trip, I was fortunate enough to stay in the absolutely gorgeous Hotel De L’Europe. I hav
