Born from a love of travel

Why we started

One journey. One backpack. A lifetime of wanderlust.

It started with one journey and one backpack — and that was all it took. My first trip to Costa Rica was everything at once: my first time on an airplane, my first time seeing the ocean, and the moment I knew my heart belonged to the water. Standing on that coastline, something shifted in me that has never shifted back.

I grew up in Colorado, landlocked and dreaming. Ever since that trip, any chance I get to be near the ocean — I take it. As a mom of four, and having recently expanded my family by welcoming my three nephews, big elaborate getaways aren't always easy to pull off. But that hasn't stopped me from researching them. I've spent countless hours hunting down cruise deals, all-inclusive resorts, and family-friendly escapes, asking myself: what if we could make this work?

That question is what led me here. I realized that the thing I was doing for fun — researching destinations, comparing packages, finding the best value for a real family on a real budget — was something I could do for others. I've planned and booked trips for friends and family for years. Now I want to do it for you.

Sea La Vie Travels was born from a genuine love of travel and a deep belief that everyone deserves a trip that takes their breath away — whether it's a cruise through turquoise waters, a week at an all-inclusive resort, or a theme park adventure the kids will never forget. I bring the same care and excitement to your trip that I bring to planning my own.
