This fall, we spent a long weekend in Vermont to see the foliage. On our first full day in Vermont, we drove up to Burlington and stayed at the Hilton Burlington Waterfront. Here’s my review of the Hilton Burlington Waterfront. Booking the Hilton Burlington Lake Champlain with Points The Hilton Burlington Lake Champlain can be…
Earlier this year, we visited Chicago for a night before heading to the suburbs to visit family. I chose the Hilton Chicago because I had a Hilton Spend the Night on Us voucher I needed to use from our timeshare presentation in Las Vegas. The voucher only covered $200 of the $270 nightly charge, but…
After a few days in Split, we took the ferry to our last stop of the trip, Dubrovnik. I was excited to stay at the Hilton Imperial Dubrovnik because of its location just outside of Dubrovnik’s Old Town near the entrance at the Pile Gate. The hotel was built as the Grand Hotel Imperial in…
Zagreb wasn’t initially a stop on my Croatia itinerary. With less than a week to visit, I was eager to head to Split and Dubrovnik right away. I’m glad I was able to squeeze in one night in Zagreb. Staying at the Canopy by Hilton made the experience even more enjoyable. Here’s my review of…

As Diamond members, we were excited about…
The Maldives is one of the most aspirational destinations, especially for those in the points and miles game. Getting to stay at a resort that costs upwards of a thousand dollars a night on points is one of the best redemptions out there. Of course, there are unavoidable fees like the transfer to the airport…
We travel to New York City about once per year so I’ve tried out a few of the points and miles hotel options. I wanted to stay at the Conrad New York Downtown this time to take advantage of the Diamond perks like free breakfast. Since this property used to be an Embassy Suites, all…
Last summer I wrote about the Hilton Grand Vacations timeshare offer I received when calling Hilton about an existing reservation. It took me over a year to actually book our trip to Las Vegas, and yes I actually received a phone call from HGV every business day from July 2018 until I booked it. Here’s…
