I highly recommend utilizing Kristin to reduce the stress of planning a great vacation!
"Kristin is an excellent resource! She has helped us plan two vacations, one already taken and a cruise planned for June â24. Kristin took the uncertainty out of traveling to an unfamiliar area, first experience to an all-inclusive resort by providing expectations, suggestions for tipping staff, travel to and from the airport, and even a packing list for the area.
Kristin was the first travel advisor we have ever used, and was great in getting to know our budget, and expectations with accommodations, and found multiple options to match this and the dates we had available to travel. She took a lot of anxiety out of planning and kept us within budget!!"
Neil, Mexico
she saved me more money than doing it myself
"Iâve booked two Disney vacations with Kristin and my experience was flawless both times. I had no idea I could use a travel agent to do the work for me (research, bookings, pricing) all for no extra price, plus she saved me more money than doing it myself! I thought for sure I could get a better deal doing the work and I was wrong. Both times I saved about $500 working with her. And she gave me great options to go off of. Sheâs so knowledgeable and responsive, I love working with her and will do it again in 2024!"
Holly, Disney trips
great at answering my millions of daily questions
"Kristin is amazing! She planned our first family Disneyland trip this fall and was so helpful. She made sure our hotel was booked and our Disney passes were taken care of. She was great at answering my millions of daily questions leading up to our trip and giving us options and her opinion on things to do at Disneyland as well as Disney's California Adventure. Her suggestions on things like restaurants, attractions, and even grocery delivery to our hotel was so helpful! We will definitely utilize Kristen's services in the future for our family travel needs! She was so great to work with!"
Lexa, Disneyland
We couldn't have asked for a better experience
"We used Kristin for a family Disney Cruise that included over 25 family members ranging from 65 to 2 years old. It was our first cruise. Her knowledge of Disney's approach was phenomenal and she helped us find the correct rooms, connected to each other, as well as all the other arrangements. We changed the dates on her several times, due to family conflicts that arose, and she handled all the changes quickly and effectively. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Several of the family members commented that it was the best vacation we have done."

Interviewing our sweet @traveldesignbyerin to hear her biggest travel mistake.
If you know Erin, you know sheâs so organized and has all the answers. It makes her an amazing travel advisor. Itâs nice to know sheâs also a human đđ¤Ş
Also, first interview so if you stay til the end you can hear @travelbykristinh fumble on the mic.
We donât know that exactly 87% of memories from travel are food memories, but it seems pretty accurate to us.
Just girls who needed a night or two to be silly. đĽ°đ
So lucky to have an agency full of friends who donât take themselves too seriously.
Anyone want to see a part 2 with the Karen wigs? We may or may not have more footage.
A lot of people think travel advisors spend their days looking at resorts and sending pretty itineraries.
And yes... there are definitely some beautiful photos involved. đ
But behind every trip is a lot of work most travelers never see.
Weâre comparing resorts that all look amazing online but deliver very different experiences.
Weâre tracking schedule changes before they become vacation problems.
Weâre researching destinations, room categories, transportation, excursions, and all the little details that can make or break a trip.
Weâre helping clients avoid the endless cycle of opening 37 browser tabs and somehow ending up more confused than when they started.
And when something does go wrong? Weâre already working on a solution.
At Bright Life Travel, we donât just book travel.
We help families, couples, groups, and busy professionals spend their vacation budget wisely, save countless hours of research, and feel confident about the decisions theyâre making.
Because planning a great trip isnât just about finding a place to stay.
Itâs about creating an experience that fits your people, your priorities, and your vision for the trip.
Thatâs the part we love most. âď¸
Whatâs the most overwhelming part of planning a vacation for you?
Most people see the destination photos.
The resort tours.
The ocean views.
The pretty hotel rooms.
What they donât see are the hours spent sitting around tables like this one.
Talking through client experiences.
Sharing whatâs working (and whatâs not).
Learning from each otherâs successes and mistakes.
Building better systems.
Comparing notes on resorts, destinations, suppliers, and travel trends.
As travel advisors, continuing education isnât optional. The industry changes constantly, and the more we learn, the better we can guide our clients.
One of my favorite parts of our Bright Life Travel retreat wasnât actually the resort.
It was watching our team collaborate, challenge ideas, share knowledge, and leave with pages of notes on how we can serve our clients even better.
Because the best travel experiences donât happen by accident.
Theyâre built on expertise, experience, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes work that most people never see.
And honestly? Thatâs exactly how we like it. â¤ď¸
What you see is the vacation.
What weâre focused on is everything that makes it unforgettable.

The @brightlifetravelco team operates with a slight level of delightful chaos. đ
We saw a reel with animal masks months before our retreat was even on the calendar and somehow⌠suspiciously similar masks ended up in everyoneâs swag bags. đŻđźđľ
Safe to say we fully committed to the bit, and honestly? Zero regrets.
We hope this makes you laugh half as much as it made us. đ
Not all all-inclusive resorts are created equal. đ
And honestly? Thatâs exactly why working with a travel advisor matters.
Because sure⌠the photos all look pretty online. But what actually makes a resort the right fit for your trip?
The quieter pool that matches your vibe.
The restaurants that are actually worth prioritizing.
The experiences youâd miss if no one told you.
The âbook this before you arriveâ details that make the difference between a good trip and a wow, that was seamless trip.
UNICO 20°87° is one of those resorts we love for the right travelerâmodern, elevated, adults-only, and full of thoughtful little details that make the experience feel special.
This is the kind of intel our clients get because we actually visit these properties, ask questions, and obsess over the details so you donât have to đ
Thinking about an adults-only Mexico getaway? Weâd love to help you find the right fit.

Planning a corporate or incentive trip might look simple from the outside⌠until youâre juggling rooming lists, flights from multiple cities, resort negotiations, transfers, activities, dietary needs, executive expectations, and the one person who suddenly decides they âmight bring a spouse.â đ
Thatâs exactly why having the right travel partner matters.
Corporate and incentive travel isnât just about booking rooms. Itâs about creating an experience that reflects your company well, rewards your team meaningfully, and runs smoothly from start to finish.
From supplier relationships and contract guidance to logistics, problem-solving, and the little details that make a trip feel elevated⌠this is where expertise matters.
If your company is thinking about an incentive trip, leadership retreat, or corporate getaway, weâd love to help you make it seamless (and significantly less stressful).

Listen, we are professional grown women. But sometimes when we leave our babies and all the momsibilities for a few days, we might get a little bit out of hand.
But in all honesty, we had such a great time together on our 2026 retreat. We spent a lot of time learning, but we spent equal time laughing and learning more about each other. And also doing some ridiculous things for the gram.
Not all cruise lines are created equal. đ
And if youâve ever thought, âA cruise is a cruise, right?â ⌠respectfully, no đ
The right cruise depends on whoâs traveling, what kind of experience you want, and whether your ideal vacation includes waterslides, Broadway-style shows, character breakfasts, or zero children in sight.
A few quick examples:
⨠Disney = family magic + unmatched service
⨠Royal Caribbean = high-energy fun + thrill seekers
⨠Celebrity = elevated without feeling stuffy
⨠Virgin Voyages = adults-only with personality
⨠Princess = fantastic itineraries + especially great for multi-generational trips
The âbestâ cruise line?
The one that actually fits you.
Thatâs where we come in.
If a cruise is on your wish list, weâll help match you with the right ship, itinerary, and experienceâwithout the overwhelm of trying to decode 47 tabs of cruise research on your own.
Which one are you choosing? đ˘đ
