Travel planning, made personal.

Vacations
Beyond Ordinary.

A vacation designed around you. From cruises and all-inclusive getaways to Disney vacations and couples’ trips, I help you find the right fit and handle the planning.

Welcome to Vacay Grande

The getaway is yours.
The details are mine.

Every traveler is different. Some want a week of doing nothing on a beach. Others need a trip that works for kids, grandparents, and everyone in between.

I’ll ask what matters to you, make recommendations that fit, and handle the arrangements so you’re not left sorting everything out on your own.

A personal introduction

Hi, I’m Heather.

I’m the travel advisor behind Vacay Grande.

I help couples, families, and friends plan vacations that fit the way they like to travel — whether that’s a relaxing beach getaway, a cruise, a theme park adventure, or somewhere entirely new.

I believe planning your vacation should be something to look forward to, not another item on your to-do list. That’s where I come in.

From our first conversation through departure, you’ll have a real person helping you along the way.

Where to next?

Your kind of getaway.

Every trip has its own personality. Here’s what I plan most.

Beachfront resort and tropical shoreline
Sun, sand, and slow days

Sun & Sand

Beachfront resorts, all-inclusives, and easygoing tropical stays for couples and families who want relaxing to be the main event.

Cruise ship on the ocean
Ship, sea, or river

Cruise Vacations

Ocean and river cruises, from tropical sailings to scenic inland journeys. I’ll help you choose the ship, cabin, and itinerary that fit your travel style, whether it’s your first cruise or your fiftieth.

Fun for every age

Family Adventures

Disney, Universal, and other theme park vacations, plus multigenerational trips and family getaways with something for everyone. I’ll help with where to stay, how many days you need, and how to fit it all together.

Planning something bigger? Reunions, milestone birthdays, friends’ trips — if you’re traveling with a group, let’s talk.

Simple from the start

Here’s how it works.

Three steps, so you always know what comes next.

01

Tell Me About Your Trip

Share where you’re thinking of going, who’s coming along, and what matters most. A general idea is plenty.

02

Let’s Talk

We’ll connect to go over your priorities and answer your questions. No obligation.

03

I Plan, You Go

I’ll put together recommendations, help with reservations, and guide you through everything before your trip.

The best trips begin with a conversation
