10 THINGS TO DO ...at AZUL SENSATORI JAMAICA

Sunday, July 23, 2017




Hello loves! I'm super excited to do this post! I've done a few little travel guides and I got so many questions about our trip to Jamaica that I decided to do one too.

I recently traveled with my husband to Jamaica for a few days. We were invited by the Karisma team to the Grand Opening of a new area at the Azul Sensatori Jamaica.


It’s located in Negril, Jamaica situated right on the famed Seven Mile Beach. Just like "El Dorado Suites", the hotel is all- inclusive (food + drinks + certain activities).  I absolutely love all-inclusive hotels because it means you get there, put your wallet in the security box, and not worry about anything.

 It has 18 Gourmet Inclusive restaurants + bars, lots of swim-up suites and a unique vibe. It was a quick trip but we had to enjoy it as much as possible.

Here are 10 things you must do if you visit Azul Sensatori Jamaica.




¡Hola! ¡Hola! Estoy muy emocionada por finalmente escribir este post. En el pasado he escrito un par de guías de viaje y me preguntaron mucho sobre este hotel en Jamaica, si valía la pena, que había para hacer, etc. Así que hoy les traigo 10 cosas que deben hacer si visitan el Azul Sensatori Jamaica.


A principios de mes, viajé con mi esposo a Jamaica por un par de días. Nos invitó el equipo de Karisma para apertura de una nueva area en este hotel ubicado en Negril, Jamaica. Al igual que "El Dorado Suites", el hotel lo incluye todo (comida, bebidas y ciertas actividades). A mi me encantan los hoteles todo incluido porque apenas llegas sabes que no te tienes que preocupar por más nada.

Tiene 18 restaurantes gourmet y bars, 7 piscinas, y una vibra muy única. Fue un viaje rápido pero quisimos sacarle l mayor provecho.

Empecemos..



8 Ways To Take Your Staycation to the Next Level

Thursday, November 3, 2016




When people tell “OMG you live in Miami, you must go to the beach ALL the time”, I get embarrassed to say I don’t go as often as I should.

I live in an amazing city - a city visited by dozens of millions because of its gorgeous beaches, culture, food, weather, etc. Reason why my husband and I, from time to time, like to book a room in Miami Beach and just enjoy what the city has to offer from a “tourist view”.

Today, I’m super excited to be partnering with Hilton  and I’m sharing 8 ways on how you can take your staycation to the next level!. Because the fact that you are not leaving your hometown doesn’t mean you shouldn’t fully feel like you are on vacation.



Staycation at Nautilus South Beach

Thursday, July 21, 2016




stay·ca·tion
ˌstāˈkāSHn/
noun
informal
  1. a vacation spent in one's home country rather than abroad, or one spent at home and involving day trips to local attractions.





I absolutely love the city I live in...Miami. Thousands of tourist come every year to experience the blue ocean, the white sands, the fun nightlife. However, being a local is completely different. This is why I love the idea of feeling like a tourist in your own town.

This time, we were invited by the Nautilus hotel in South Beach to stay there the weekend...and it was so much fun. The hotel gladly accommodated Chiki, which is always a plus.  We spent some time by the pool and the ocean, we had one of the best meals and cocktail I've ever had at Driftwood Room.  I really recommend the ginger cocktail and the tuna tartare.

For my looks, it's so hot in Miami that I just went with easy going flowy dresses. I'm obsessed with the denim dress with patches. Mine is from Shoppiin, but you can also get a regular denim dress and put as many patches as you want (Express has many cute ones that are easy to add)..


I'm just going to upload the pictures and let them speak for themselves.  XOXO


Adoro vivir en Miami....y es que de verdad es una ciudad hermosa. Uno como local olvida lo lindo que es. Por eso me encanta la idea de los "Staycation"- que es básicamente pasar una mini vacación en la ciudad donde vives (o hasta en tu propia casa si quieres desconectarte del mundo).

En esta ocasión el hotel Nautilus en Miami Beach nos invitó a pasar el fin de semana allá y disfrutar de las areas. Estabamos super contentos que nos dejaron llevar a Chiki sin problema alguno, lo cual es perfecto, especialmente si es una mini vacación. Pasamos tiempo en la piscina y en la playa...y no tiene idea lo rico que comimos en Driftwood Room. Les recomiendo el tuna tartare y el cóctel que tiene jengibre.

¡Les dejo que las fotos hablen por si solas! BESOS

10 things to do at the El Dorado Seaside Suites ...with Karisma Hotels

Tuesday, May 10, 2016




Oh HELLO HELLO!! I've never done a "travel" post like this one...so I'm pretty excited!

I recently traveled with my husband to Mexico for almost 10 days...first we stayed at El Dorado Seaside Suites in Riviera <aya. The staff at this hotel was out of this world, I really want to thank the Karisma team because we felt like royalty. The hotel is all-inclusive (food + drinks + some activities); which means you don't have to worry about anything.

We had a pretty planned schedule, so I narrowed it down to the 10 activities you MUST do if you visit any of the Karisma Hotels in Mexico.

¡Hola! ¡Hola! Creo que nunca he hecho una guía de viaje como esta...así que estoy muy contenta de compartirla.

Recientemente fui a México con mi esposo por casi 10 días. Primero nos quedamos en El Dorado Seaside Suites en Riviera Maya. Lo primero que tengo que decir del hotel es sobre la atención...no tienen idea lo amables, nos trataron como si fuésemos de la realeza. El hotel lo incluye todo: comidas, bebidas, y ciertas actividades...lo que hace que sea 100% relax.

Estuvimos bastante ocupados con un itinerario a millón. Pero aquí van las 10 actividades si vas a alguno de los hoteles Karisma en México.




The Gates Key West Photo Diary

Sunday, December 20, 2015



Hey girls!! If you follow me on IG or Snapchat, maybe you already know this...but we were in Key West last week. So today I'm trying something a little different...instead of separating the post by look, I'm doing more of "recaps". I like it because I can tell you more about the experience instead of just focusing of what I'm wearing.

Key West is just 3 hours away driving from Miami- which is not bad at all. It is the Southernmost point of Continental USA and you can even see Cuba on a clear day.  The Keys are basically little islands connected by bridges (the view from a super long 11 mile bridge is just gorgeous...that blue ocean is beautiful!).

"The Gates Key West" invited us for a quick getaway. The first plus for the hotel happened before we even got there. We were on the way to leave Chiki at my sister-in-law's house and I decided to check online and it said pet-friendly. I literally was jumping of excitement.  As soon as we got there, even before we got our key to the room, Chiki got a barkbox package with treats, a water bowl, and toys (how amazing is that!). There's even a picture below of Chiki when we were opening his box, and he was SO excited.


The concept of the hotel is a little retro but the rooms are so clean and modern...the decor is very cool too (there was a beachy Christmas tree and everything!!). You can rent bikes to move around town, which is honestly the easiest and best way to get to see the little city. The hotel has some hipster characteristics...like the cool food truck (open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner), and a bar. When we were there, I was looking at pictures of people at the hotel and I realized that I saw a girl that just posted by the pool. We kinda stalked each other and we meet with our respective boyfriends/husbands. This is definitely the best part of the industry, getting to know amazingly talented people!

My looks were very simple and beach-ish! I just took my fave summer pieces with me and mix and match them there! I only forgot to pack sunglasses...thankfully I had these in Gabe's car! Check out all the details of what I'm wearing below!
XOXO

¡Hola! ¡Hola! Si me siguen en Instagram saben que estuve en Key West la semana pasada...en vez de dividir los post, quise ponerlo casi todo en un artículo (díganme que opinan de este formato; me gusta porque me siento menos repetitiva y así puedo contarles más en detalle de la experiencia y no solo de lo que estoy utilizando).

Key West queda a unas 3 horas de Miami. Esta pequeña ciudad es el punto más al sur de todo Estados Unidos; y por lo que tengo entendido eran pequeñas isletas (cayos), pero ahora esta todo conectado con puentes. Por cierto hay un puente muy lindo de 11 millas llegando ahí y la vista es espectacular.

Nos invitó el hotel "The Gates" y de verdad que la pasamos increíble. Cuando estabamos de camino a dejar a Chiki con mi cuñada, llamamos de casualidad al hotel para ver si nos dejaban llevar a chiki. Y SI!, nos emocionamos mucho porque en mi opinión todos los hoteles deberían ser "pet-friendly"; nuestras mascotas son parte de nuestra familia. Al llegar lo primero que nos dieron fue un kit para Chiki de Barkbox que traía caramelitos de perro, un pote de agua y juguetitos. En las fotos hay una de Chiki abriendo su caja extra contento.

 El concepto es estilo motel pero las habitaciones son super modernas y con un toque retro. También alquilan bicicletas y de verdad que es la mejor manera de moverse en Key West- aparte que todo es muy lindo y se aprecia mejor en bici. Como el hotel es bastante sencillo, en vez de tener un restaurante, tiene un "food truck" donde ofrecen desayuno, almuerzo y cena. Y también hay un bar al lado de la piscina donde por casualidad estuvimos compartiendo con una fotógrafa, Lisa Diederich, que también fue invitada por el hotel. Y me encantó compartir con ella y su novio, como siempre digo..esta industria es para conocer gente y no tomarlo como una competencia.

Mis looks fueron muy cómodos y playeros...desde unos shorts blancos con una camisa blanca con los hombros al descubierto, shorts de jean con mi traje de baño, y un cover-up largo que es de mis favoritos. Abajo les dejo los enlaces a todos. ¡Besos!
