San Diego has always been our favorite destination for a mix of sunny skies, beautiful beaches, and that laid-back vibe that makes everything feel right. Whether it’s a family vacation, a romantic getaway, or a solo adventure, something about this city keeps drawing us back. But let’s be honest, planning a vacation can sometimes be…
What do we like so much about Key West? The salty breeze and swaying palm trees never fail to lure us back and back again. It’s our go-to destination whenever we want an authentic slice of tropical paradise. But for those on a budget, Key West can be expensive. Thankfully, you can still capture the…
Self-pampering in Phoenix, you said? One of our most cherished experiences was our stay at Marriott’s Canyon Villas in Phoenix. Nestled in the stunning Sonoran Desert, this luxurious resort is a true oasis of tranquility. We loved waking up each morning to panoramic views of the desert landscape. The resort’s multiple pools always invited us…
The Gaslamp Quarter in San Diego is a historic, buzzy district which is also the main “going out” spot for tourists and locals in the city. While the place is packed with pricey and flashy restaurants and bars, we were interested in exploring remnants of its fascinating past. Recognizable by its old-style ‘gas lamps’ and…
Sitting just an hour south of Denver, Colorado Springs is aptly called the Goldilocks of travel destinations. It might be the state’s second-largest city, but it doesn’t feel crowded. Secondly, it’s far enough from Denver, but isn’t inaccessible at the same time. Moreover, it’s got tons of green swathes, but it also has an urban…
Tucked on the Pacific Coast at the southwestern edge of the United States is the city that is known as the birthplace of California. We’re talking about the “City in Motion,” a.k.a. “America’s Finest City,” San Diego. Unlike many other US cities, San Diego doesn’t have a very long history, even though Juan Rodriquez Cabrillo…
‘America’s Finest City’ San Diego could sometimes be overshadowed by the cosmopolitan San Francisco or the sexier Los Angeles. However, the city holds a treasure that neither city has: Coronado. This resort city, which is a tied island within San Diego County, sits its own strip of land and is connected by a narrow strip of beach…
Sitting at the junction of Broadway and Fourth Avenue (formerly Bowery Lane), Union Square is one of New York City’s most iconic neighborhoods. It’s not only an important subway junction and hub, but has a gorgeous green park, some of NYC’s best markets, and is a creative hotspot. So, we thought, why not stay in…
For many families, LEGOLAND is the top-tier theme park destination. While there are plenty of LEGOLANDs, we enjoy the one in California the most. Often called LEGOLAND San Diego, this place has that Southern California charm that we can’t find elsewhere. If you plan to go here with your loved ones, you’ll need proper accommodation.…
The sound of the waves crashing and the soft sand of Mission Beach was like a calming melody, inviting us to relax and soak in the beauty all around us. The sun shone brightly in the clear blue sky, casting a golden glow over everything it touched. We took a deep breath, inhaling the salty…
As a seasoned traveler, I’ve had the pleasure of exploring some of the world’s most vibrant cities, and San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter is undoubtedly one of my favorites. This bustling neighborhood is known for its rich history, stunning architecture, and electrifying nightlife. But when it comes to finding the perfect place to stay, the options…
Manhattan is one of the top-visited cities in NY. It’s arguably a tourist magnet with various attractions and places to visit. We visit Manhattan in all seasons. When it gets cold, we prefer to stay in hotels in Manhattan with indoor pools as we insist on having entertainment options in our accommodation venues. Indoor pools…
For more than five decades, there has existed a gay haven in the middle of the Sonoran Desert. We’re talking about former Hollywood playground, mecca of modernism, and the golf capital of the world, the extremely gay-friendly Palm Springs. You’ll have to forgive us for gushing about this amazing SoCal destination, but Palm Springs is…
Manhattan isn’t the only iconic borough in New York City; across the river, the hip and happening Brooklyn is the real New York. Best known for its iconic attractions such as Coney Island and Brooklyn Bridge, Brooklyn is one of the most important boroughs in the Big Apple. Besides a great nightlife and cool architecture,…
With an annual 266 sun-kissed days, San Diego might just be the perfect destination for a Californian beach vacation. We chose Pacific Beach, a lively neighborhood between La Jolla and Mission Beach in northern San Diego, where sunsets, beach walks, and ocean swims rule the roost. PB, as it’s famously called, is especially known for…
We’ve all been there: the excitement of planning a family vacation to the Big Apple, only to hit a roadblock when booking accommodations.

The Big Apple has so many things to see and do for large groups, and that too for all ages, that you might have to plan multiple vacations to explore the city fully!

Almost every major world city has a signature boulevard. Paris has Champs-Élysées, NYC has Fifth Avenue, and San Francisco has Market Street. It starts in front of the ferry terminal at The Embarcadero, at the city’s northeastern edge, running southwest through downtown. While the Financial District, Civic Center, and Union Square lie on its northern side,…
