The starting point
A city, a region, a “somewhere warm,” or two ideas you cannot decide between.
When it is not a package
The trip that does not have a neat label
Hotels, a week in another state, an international itinerary, or a mix Ashley has not seen in a brochure yet — she will still help you shape it.
Planning with Ashley
If your trip does not fit “cruise” or “Disney,” that is still a real vacation.
I help with hotels and resorts that are not all-inclusive, domestic weeks, international travel, and combination trips. I’ll compare options in plain language and keep one point of contact. I do not invent a destination you did not ask for — I start with what you already know you want, even if that is only a season and a feeling.
What you talk through
The decisions that actually change the week
Atmosphere, rooms, pace, and getting there — the parts worth settling before anyone books.
The stay
Hotels, resorts, and nights that need to connect without feeling like a logistics class.
The pace
One home base versus a few stops — chosen for how you actually like to travel.
The details
Flights and transfers talked through with the stay, not as an afterthought.
Custom trips
Hotels, domestic weeks, and travel farther afield
Same kind of planning — called out so you can land on the part you meant.
Hotels & resorts
Not every stay is all-inclusive. I’ll help compare hotels and resorts for location, room type, and whether the property matches the week you want — a city base, a beach hotel, or a quieter inn.
Domestic vacations
A week in another state still benefits from a person who will compare stays and timing. I’ll help you organize a domestic getaway without turning it into a research project.
International vacations
Crossing a border adds flights, timing, and more choices. I’ll help you narrow the plan and understand the moving parts before you commit — I’m not an embassy or an airline.

Tell Ashley the places, the people, and the constraints. She will help you turn that into a plan instead of a folder of tabs.
