Melissa Smithey

Franchise Owner - Vacation Specialist

With a lifelong passion for travel, I have expertly planned numerous family vacations throughout the United States for over a decade, exploring vibrant cities like New York City and Las Vegas. However, in 2017, our first cruise ignited a new passion. We quickly discovered the ability to enjoy more enriching experiences with less stress and at a lower cost compared to our traditional vacations.

Drawing on this extensive personal experience, I have assisted friends and family in planning their travels over the years. Motivated to extend my expertise, I became an Independent Vacation Specialist in 2019, driven by a commitment to securing the best travel deals for both myself and my clients. This journey culminated in the acquisition of my own Dream Vacations franchise in 2021.

With over a decade of experience in vacation planning, I specialize in crafting memorable experiences tailored to your preferences. Whether you're dreaming of exploring the historical treasures of Europe, relaxing on the pristine beaches of the Caribbean, or embarking on an adventure through the wilds of Alaska, I am dedicated to maximizing your travel budget. Let my expertise guide you in creating an unforgettable vacation where every detail is meticulously planned to ensure your utmost enjoyment.

Christy Fulton

Vacation Specialist

I grew up taking family vacations every summer. After starting my own family, I wanted my daughter to have the same experience. We took our first cruise in 2009 and cruising quickly became our annual family vacation.

Since I have been planning these annual trips for my friends and family for over a decade now, it seems natural to turn my passion into a business. If you want to vacation by land or by sea, let me help you plan your next awesome adventure. I will happily use my experience to find you the best deals so you can focus on making memories and having the time of your life!
