A Family and Fairy Friendly Stay at the Isle of Skye’s Uig Hotel and Lodge
We had been on a fairy hunt. And we were gearing up for another one the next morning. The hunt itself was intense. There were twisted ankles and muddy feet. We battled steep stoney hikes and hopping from slick stone to slick stone on rain-soaked rocks. We navigated tiny roads and the occasional cliff. We got lost. We got found. And then, just as dusk was rolling in, we spotted our hotel, Uig Hotel and Lodge, white and welcoming in the distance. Location Uig Hotel and Lodge is located in the northern portion of Scotland’s Isle of Skye on a hill overlooking Uig Bay, and this is the first…

Hotel Review: Hyatt Regency Savannah, GA: Child Accommodating
This travel tribe doesn’t take lightly to picking out hotels, and it took us some time to settle on the Hyatt Regency Savannah.

Hotel Review-Embassy Suites, Chevy Chase, MD-Child Accommodating (With a Watchful Eye)
The main issue facing the hotel is the same issue that makes it appealing: it is part of a mall. That's right. A mall. A mall with a CVS (yay late night candy shopping), a World Market (because I always need to buy more whimsical notebooks or napkins for the house), and a Starbucks (because I'm a mom and I need it to go with the wine I just bought at World Market). So, there are some pretty impressive positives to staying at this hotel. But that mall aspect? Oh it isn't without it's down side as well.

The Equinox Resort Vermont Review: A Family Friendly Resort
We used to just be a couple, and we’d see other couples all around. Now I see kids, families, spread out through the Equinox Resort Vermont. Maybe I've changed. Maybe the hotel has changed. Or maybe we've both managed to change. Ten years later, and we still keep coming back. Here's why.
