Where to Stay: Alila Ventana Big Sur Review
I first heard about the Alila Ventana Big Sur from another travel blogger who reviewed it almost a year and a half ago. After reading the review, I rushed over to the Hyatt website and booked the hotel for two nights on points. I wanted to stay here because I’ve never stayed at an Alila property before, but also mainly because this was an all-inclusive hotel in California! I’ve only seen all-inclusive hotels in Mexico
Where to Stay: Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas Review
Today, I'm going to give you my Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas review from my most recent vacation. Staying here was a very last minute decision I made for Memorial Day Weekend. I had a Hyatt Category 7 Free Night Certificate that I needed to use by the middle of June and had originally booked it at the Hyatt Carmel Highlands. I booked it there because we were already going to be up in Big
Where to Stay: Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Review
Using my points to stay at the Hyatt Regency Indian Wells was probably the best hotel deal decision I have ever made. Around the same time last year, I got an email saying that Coachella would be coming back and presales were going to happen soon. So, in my mind, I rushed over to Hyatt's website to see if there were any hotels that I could book on points. I knew that the Hyatt Regency

myVEGAS Rewards: Exclusive Rates Calendars (May 2022-Aug 2022)
By popular demand, I am posting the myVEGAS exclusive rates reward calendars for May 2022 through Aug 2022. A lot of you have been asking recently so I thought I would do a blog post about it. I actually would have done it sooner but I didn't think anyone really cared about the exclusive rates, but now I'm glad to know that a lot of you are interested! If you are looking for the comp
Wynn Las Vegas: Amex Fine Hotels and Resorts
A few months back, I decided to stay at the Wynn Las Vegas for my birthday and I (of course) booked it through the American Express Fine Hotels and Resorts (FHR) portal. It's my favorite way to book hotel rooms to ensure that I get a nice view, late check-out, and some sort of food credit. Yes, the $695 annual fee is not something to joke about, but honestly, it is one of the few
Crockfords Las Vegas: Amex Fine Hotels and Resorts
I've been wanting to stay at the Crockfords Las Vegas since Resorts World opened back in the summer of last year. Resorts World is a mega hotel resort that is made up of three hotels: Hilton, Conrad, and Crockfords. I was lucky enough to stay at the Hilton during their opening night, but now I wanted to check out the other two hotels and see how they compare. For this trip, I only had time
Wynn Las Vegas Spa Review
For my birthday last month, I decided to treat myself and go visit the Wynn Las Vegas Spa to get a much-needed massage. I absolutely love getting massages and couldn't have been more excited to finally try the one at the Wynn. When I checked in, the receptionist told me that during the pandemic, the Wynn Las Vegas Spa did a major renovation so I was going to be in for a real treat. I
myVEGAS Rewards: One-Night Comp Calendars (May 2022-August 2022)
Summer is upon us and so are the myVEGAS Rewards one-night comp calendars for May 2022 through August 2022! Obviously, since it's summer, most of the Friday and Saturday comps are now gone, but there are a few weekends in August that I see that are comped. Also, definitely check out the Mirage! It looks like all the dates in summer are being comped, but if you are thinking about going on Memorial Day Weekend,
Where to Stay: Park Hyatt Washington D.C.
We are reviewing the beautiful Park Hyatt Washington D.C. today! If you don't know already, I'm a big Park Hyatt fan and it's my goal to visit every single one of them. I believe there are currently 47 locations around the world and I've been to now three of them (Tokyo, Beaver Creek, and Washington D.C.). I would love to know how many have you been to! Leave it in the comments below and which
