It felt a little sad leaving Staybridge as it had been the perfect base for our first few days of adventures in Orlando. During our trip we stayed at four different hotels (five hotel rooms though) and this was our first change over day. I’d planned our itinerary to give us a little bit of a quieter day on this …

Family Stay at Cabana Bay Beach Resort Hotel
Ever since we first set foot on Universal Orlando Resort in 2016, we fell in love. The girls have asked to go back every single day so getting the news that we would be returning to Universal Orlando was a literal dream come true for all of us. Universal kindly gifted us a six night stay with tickets to the …

We have been staying at Staybridge Suites Orlando at SeaWorld, it’s literally opposite SeaWorld and SeaWorld is one of my top bucket list places I’ve always hoped to visit. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so much excitement for a day out than I did waking up on Sunday morning, knowing that after our breakfast we would be heading to …

I went to bed on our first night feeling like my head was going to explode. We’d been travelling for far too long. Thankfully a full night of sleep at our hotel, Staybridge Suites Orlando at SeaWorld, was all I needed to feel myself again. We were all very excited for the complimentary breakfast. You can see my full review …

We have been back in England for 24 hours as I’m writing this and sorting through our travel day photos feels bittersweet. Travelling to Orlando happened over two weeks ago now.

This is a super exciting blog post for me to create. It’s been in the making I suppose for months and months. I’ve mentioned it on my social media but today is the day I can openly talk about it.

Waking up on our last day in the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel felt strange. Our time in Orlando seemed to have whizzed by in a busy blur full of happy memories and laughing that we just didn’t want to go home. I felt more aware of our surroundings and found myself taking it it, taking mental pictures as I longed …

We had no plans for our fourth, technically our third full day and our last full day, in the Universal Orlando Resort. We had two full days of being in the theme park with no chance to relax or enjoy what the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel had to offer. P1 had been asking each day if we could go swimming …

For some very strange reason, we had another night where all three of the girls slept the entire night. I even slept more soundly too as I was adjusted to our environment and the comfort of the Queen bed in the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel in the Universal Orlando Resort. We all actually ended up sleeping later than we wanted …

All three of the girls slept straight through their first night in Orlando. Despite being super comfortable in the air conditioned Garden Room of the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, I didn’t sleep too well. I think I was overtired and had adrenaline pumping through me as I anticipated the day ahead. I’d set my alarm for early. I had expected …

When I filled in the application to go on the holiday of a lifetime, I honestly never thought I would be the one to get picked. I have watched on the sidelines and read other bloggers traveling abroad but it always felt like that was a goal that would be a long time until we reached, if ever! When the …

I get sent blogging opportunities near enough daily. Some are just not of interest, some are fun and some are so dreamy you feel a little giddy about them. A few weeks ago, I was amongst hundreds who applied to go on a blog trip to Orlando and I felt there really was no chance in hell that my little …
