About Me

Icon of the Seas - Royal Caribbean
Icon of the Seas - Royal Caribbean

Cruises, much like my clients, offer a world of possibilities. No two travelers are exactly alike, and that’s what makes cruising such an incredible vacation choice. Whether you’re dreaming of sailing to Hawaii, witnessing the breathtaking glaciers and wildlife of Alaska, exploring the historic ports of Europe, or relaxing on the sun-soaked beaches of the Caribbean, I’m here to help you choose the right ship, itinerary, and cruise line to perfectly match your travel style.

Some travelers want nonstop family fun, incredible kids’ programs, and exciting onboard adventures. Others are drawn to a more elegant, adult-focused experience with fine dining, enrichment, and relaxation. Maybe your ideal vacation includes long, peaceful days at sea, enjoying the pools, spa, entertainment, and endless ocean views. Or perhaps you’re looking for a ship that offers the perfect balance of activities for both adults and children. Whatever your vision, there is a cruise designed just for you, and I’ll help you find it.

Disney Cruise Line: Perfect for families and Disney fans, Disney Cruise Line delivers world-class service, Broadway-style entertainment, imaginative kids’ clubs, and unforgettable character experiences. Consistently ranked among the top cruise lines for guest satisfaction, Disney excels in dining, stateroom comfort, entertainment, and shore excursions. Most Caribbean sailings include a stop at Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay, where white-sand beaches, turquoise waters, and family-friendly activities create a truly magical day in paradise. Cruising is also one of the best ways to experience the rugged beauty of Alaska while still enjoying the comfort and convenience of your ship. Imagine sailing past towering glaciers, spotting whales and bald eagles, and exploring charming coastal towns. There are several Alaska itineraries available, depending on what you’d like to see. For a deeper adventure, many cruise lines offer “Cruise Tours,” combining your sailing with a land journey into the interior, including incredible destinations like Denali National Park. I’ve helped many clients plan Alaska vacations, and it’s always exciting to share everything this unforgettable destination has to offer.

Royal Caribbean: Known for innovation and excitement, Royal Caribbean offers action-packed ships filled with activities for all ages. From surf simulators and water slides to ice skating, rock climbing, and Broadway-style entertainment, there’s truly something for everyone onboard. With a wide range of ships and itineraries around the world, Royal Caribbean is a fantastic choice for families and travelers who want adventure at sea.

Princess Cruises: A wonderful option for travelers who appreciate a more classic cruise experience, Princess combines elegant ships with modern comforts. Guests enjoy exceptional dining, enrichment programs, and thoughtfully designed itineraries to destinations like Alaska, Europe, Hawaii, and the Caribbean. Princess is especially popular for its scenic sailings and relaxed, refined atmosphere.

Celebrity Cruises: Celebrity offers a modern, upscale cruise experience with stylish ships, elevated dining, and attentive service. It’s an excellent choice for couples and adults seeking a more sophisticated atmosphere. With beautifully designed staterooms, unique itineraries, and a strong focus on cuisine and service, Celebrity delivers a refined vacation at sea.

River cruising has also become increasingly popular for travelers who want a more intimate and immersive journey. Instead of docking far from the action, river ships often pull right into the heart of the cities you’re visiting. You can step off the ship and immediately explore historic landmarks, charming streets, local markets, and cultural attractions. It’s a relaxed, elegant way to experience Europe and other regions in depth.

Viking River & Ocean Cruises: Viking is a top choice for adults seeking cultural enrichment, history, and destination-focused travel. Their river cruises glide through the heart of Europe, docking in the center of iconic cities and picturesque towns. Viking’s ocean ships offer a similar experience on a larger scale, with elegant, adults-only voyages, included excursions, and itineraries across Europe, the Mediterranean, and beyond.

With so many cruise lines, ships, and destinations to choose from, planning the perfect cruise can feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in. I work with all the major cruise lines and take pride in matching each client with the ideal itinerary, ship, and stateroom for their travel style, budget, and preferences.

Whether one of these cruise ideas speaks to you or you have a completely different destination in mind, I’m here to help every step of the way. Let’s work together to find your perfect cruise and create a vacation filled with unforgettable moments from the moment you step onboard to the day you return home.

Memories that last a lifetime!
Reviewed By Alicia - Brunswick, Georgia | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Annette is amazing!! She helped me plan our trip step by step from beginning to end. I was looking for fun character dining options for my kids and wasn't able to find any that weren't already booked. Annette was able to find one within minutes of me asking her for help! She booked our hotel room, made sure we had our tickets, and our dining plan. I had tons of questions for her and she never once got annoyed with me but answered every single one promptly! She made herself available to us our entire trip! We made many lasting memories on this trip and we could not have done it without Annette!!! I will recommend her to all of our friends and family for their travel needs. We will use her for all of our needs going forward! Not only is she wonderful at what she does but I feel like I've made a new friend in her :)

    Fantastic TIme
    We had such a fantastic time. Location was perfect for Hollywood & Epcot parks. No long lines waiting to get too & from the parks. Spent time in the pool my grand daughter & I had so much fun going down the slides! Also we could see the fireworks as we enjoyed the pool.

    Country Music Cruise
    My husband and I have been on two Country Music Cruises and Annette with Must Love Travel has been outstanding to work with! Annette kept us apprised of the itinerary, gathering information for the excursions available and making sure we had what we needed on-board the ship. The cruises were very nice, lots of music entertainment all over the ship at all times of the day and night, in addition to the evening concerts. Highly encourage anyone to work with Annette for a great cruise experience with the bonus of great country music with top-notch artists!

    Universal Studios
    "I am beyond grateful to Annette for providing us with an absolutely unforgettable experience on my recent trip to Universal Studios! From the moment I first reached out to her until we set foot in the park, she guided us through a world of magic and wonder. Her thorough explanations about the hotels and how to make the most of our time and budget by opting for a hotel with the Unlimited Express pass were invaluable. The boat transportation and Express pass made our Universal Studios visit even more enjoyable. Annette's attention to detail in every email and her prompt responses to calls and messages were truly commendable. Her friendly and helpful demeanor ensured that we had the best vacation possible. The memories we created on this trip will be cherished forever, and I eagerly look forward to our next adventure. Without a doubt, I will always turn to Annette at Must Love Travel for all my future travel plans."

    US GRAND PRIX - Austin TX
    I would like to thank you for one of the very best race events I have ever experienced. The trip was very well planned from the time we arrived in Austin, the great rooms at the Embassy Suites Central, the bus service to and from the track and of course the incredible viewing from reserved seats made for " The Best " racing trips ever. I have been to several major race events before but a race at COTA was the best organized and executed event period! From our seats you could see 2/3rds of the race track plus directly across from our seats is a large monitor the showed close racing all over the track. This truly was an international event that should definitely be experienced! I've attached a few pictures that only touches the surface of the sensory overload that's included with this event. I will look to you for your help in planning our next excursion. US Grand Prix

    Hand Down Best Trip
    I went to Nashville back in April and it was hands down my favorite trip I’ve ever been on. As lover of country music I felt right at home. The people were nice as can be everywhere I went. The BBQ is some of the best I’ve ever had. There are bands at each bar you go to and they’re so good you wonder how they don’t already have record deals. I also went to the Grand Ole Opry and realized how special the place is. You are able to take a tour and go backstage just as if you were a country artist getting ready to perform. Bottom line I cannot wait to go back to Nashville and would choose going there over any other destination. Working with Annette on this trip as well she was hands down the best. She booked everything from airfare, transfers, our tours we wanted to see and do, Gave us tips on restaurants and bars to visit. Even was able to provide us with who was going to be playing at the Grand Ole Opry. My 3rd trip booking with Annette. Ready to plan my next.

    Annette helped us with our bookings this summer at WDW - She gave us lots of options and was most patient with us at the start of our planning and then once we firmed our plans everything was handled really smoothly. She co-ordinated our pick up check in / preferences every little detail and her tips for the trip were very helpful. I would recommend her services to anyone looking to plan a fun family holiday - She was of great help to us.

    Our Anniversary Trip
    Annette has had dedicated valuable time and interest in making sure that we get the trip we are looking for. We provided her our needs and wants and she has been very successful of our requests. We sailed with Princess Cruise Line to Alaska and Annette selected a room that was perfect and on the starboard side of the ship so when we were on our balcony we seen everything that was to be seen. We loved our sailing and working with Annette. We are looking forward to our next vacation to book with her.

    Stress free planing
    I was uncertain exactly what I wanted to plan for my family this year. I first started to plan a universal trip and ended up moving it to Disney. I felt like a pain to deal with, but wanted to make sure we would have a good experience. Annette listened to my thoughts and helped me pick the perfect vacation for my family. I asked for quotes and booked with her in like March. When free dining came out in April I wanted to make changes and she helped me look for the best pricing. I ended up moving my reservation to another resort to get free dining. During all of this she was right there to help me with everything I needed. She was very prompt on returning emails and messages. I really couldn't have asked for a better experience. When it is time to book for next year I hope she is still there and willing to help me find the perfect place for my family. I have told everyone I know about her and hope they will call to help book their vacations also.
