You’ll have a chance to reconnect with your partner, relax during your pregnancy, take a breather to celebrate a new baby coming, and create memories with your S.O. before your lives completely change.

    Yucatan Peninsula

    Tripadvisor recently announced thebest summer travel destinations and the Yucatan Peninsula topped the global list. My favorite area: Tulum, a bohemian coastal town known for its stunning beaches, Mayan ruins, and cool, creative scene. You'll get a more relaxed and laid-back vibe to nearby destinations like Cancun and Playa del Carmen. Stay or book a quartz sand massage, where you lie on quartz sand, or a restorative massage, which uses the Aztec plant for its skin-healing benefits, at the Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya.

    London, England

    Get your European city vacay without the language barrier in London, TripAdvisor's second best global destination. Do the touristy roundup of Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace (the changing of the guards happens at 10:45AM M-W-F-S). Visit the free National Gallery in Trafalgar Square for a Van Gogh or da Vinci spotting. Grab fish and chips at Golden Union or amazing curry (if you can handle the spice) at bonoo. Catch the original production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Palace Theatre, and/or relive your rom-com fantasies in Notting Hill. There are beautiful parks too, like Hyde Park, to rest your feet post-exploring.

    Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

    Get some serious R&R at this postcard-beautiful island for the ultimate romantic getaway. Lounge by the pool with a virgin piña colada at one of many all-inclusive resorts, like Excellence Punta Cana, an adults-only resort and spa. When you’re ready to explore the island, take a dip in the cenotes, or underground caves, at Scape Park in Capa Cana or the freshwater lagoons at Indigenous Eyes Ecological Park. Dine downtown at the Noah restaurant, which is the top restaurant in town, according to TripAdvisor, and watch an amazing performance at the Coco Bongo Punta Cana nightclub.

    Maui, Hawaii

    Choose to lounge on a black-sand beach and read your favorite summer read or go on an island adventure filled with everything from whale watching on a boat to waterfall hikes in Haleakalā National Park. Either way, don’t lift a finger and stay at a luxe resort like the Westin Mauior the Hotel Wailea; eat farm-to-table at restaurants like Mama’s Fish House and Lahaina Grill; and enjoy beachfront prenatal massages, snorkeling, and a scenic 53-mile drive to the town of Hana.

    Tuscany, Italy

    Tuscany offers the best of both worlds: quaint countryside and cities filled with rich culture, art, and the best Italian cuisine you’ll likely ever experience. Check out iconic sights like the Duomo Cathedral and Michelangelo’s “David” sculpture in Florence and lean into the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Bike through olive groves and vineyards, stay in boutique hotels like Stelle Di Monte, or book a stay and couple’s massage in San Firenze Suites & Spa.

    Santorini, Greece

    This volcanic island in the Aegean Sea is famous for its breathtaking sunsets, whitewashed buildings, blue-domed churches, and dramatic landscapes. Start your babymoon on a healthy note with a wellness experience at the Andronis Concept Wellness Resort. Each suite has an ocean-facing infinity pool, where you can watch amazing sunsets and sunrises when the sky turns pink. Enjoy fresh Mediterranean cuisine at seaside tavernas, sunset cruises, and explore quaint villages.

    Visit tranquil temples, gardens, and tea ceremonies in this ancient city, home to 14 World Heritage Sites, including a beautiful moon-crossing bridge, Togetsu-kyo, in the small town of Arashiyama on the Oi River. Explore Kyoto’s traditional arts and crafts scene, from fabric dyeing at the Roketsu Dyeing Studio to the Kyoto Museum of Crafts and Design. Stay at the modern Ace Hotel Kyoto, the Shinmonzen Hotel in Kyoto’s Gion district, or one of many ryokans, traditional Japanese inns.

    Napa Valley, CA

    Photo via Auberge du Soleil

    Napa Valley is famous for its wines, sure, but it also offers stunning resorts like Auberge du Soleil, or the bohemian spa retreat Indian Springs Calistoga with an Olympic-size mineral pool and Buddha pond for post-massage lounging. Go high-brow and dine at Michelin-rated restaurants like the French Laundry, or head to my favorite spot, the charming Oakville Grocery for picnic-style pizza and the best chocolate chip cookies warm out of the oven. Round out your trip with a hot air balloon ride, stroll along the Napa River downtown (if you're hungry head to Angèle Restaurantfor a rustic French meal along the river), and visit the famed Oxbow Market for local goodies to bring home.

    Amalfi Coast, Italy

    Visit this UNESCO-listed southern Italian coastline lined with charming villages perched between mountains and the sea. Book a private villa at the romantic Albergo Punta Regina with a poolside view of the Mediterranean sea. Catch a bus for a beautiful tour of the coast from Positano to Amalfi.

    For most people, a standard trip to Hawaii involves a visit to the beach and perhaps a stop at the Pearl Harbor museum. However, as a self-proclaimed Disney adult, I like to find a bit of magic wherever I go. Lucky for me, Disney has a resort in Hawaii located less than 20 minutes away from the Honolulu airport. I've never been to Disney's Aulani Resort and Spa before, but after just three nights on the property, I can confidently say I will return at some point in the future. That said, I've decided to make a first timer's guide to Aulani using my first hand experience at the resort that'll hopefully make your trip a breeze when you visit one day.

    Disney

    A one-bedroom suite

    Where to stay at Aulani

    Aulani has 351 rooms for guests to stay in during their visit to the resort ranging from standard rooms and suites to more spacious villas. I stayed in a standard room during my stay and it was lovely. The bed had one of the most comfortable mattresses I've ever slept on and an exquisite bathroom. I wish there was a bit more counter space for all of my makeup, however, that's a tiny complaint in relation to how amazing the room was. My favorite part of the room aside from the mattress was the bathroom. I loved the overhead rainfall shower as it screamed luxury and was a great way to unwind and cool down after a long day at the beach.

    Disney

    A yoga class on the beach

    What to do at Aulani

    Take a class

    For starters, there are many classes you can sign up for that are included in your stay such as ukulele classes, animation classes, hula lessons, etc. These classes vary based on the day, but you can check the Aulani app to see if there are any scheduled during your stay. You'll need to visit the community hall to reserve a time slot prior to the start time since space is limited so make sure you do that early on in the day. I took the animation and ukulele classes and they were fun ways to spend the later evening hours.

    The resort also offers fitness classes for hotel guests they can participate in and those vary based on the day. You'll want to check the app to see what's going on during your stay whether that's pilates or sunrise yoga.

    Meet the characters

    What really makes Aulani stand out from the competition is the Disney magic inside the resort. At Aulani guests can meet characters from popular Disney films including Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Moana, Olu Mel, Angel, Shellie May, Duffy, Max, Stitch, Chip and Dale, Goofy, Pluto, Donald Duck, and Daisy Duck. The characters aren't the same everyday, but you can check the app to see who will be out starting at 9am the day of your stay.

    Make sure you line up early because they get crowded and the lines close quickly. You'll also need to make sure you have a wristband so the character attendants can know you are a registered hotel guest.

    Disney

    Mo'Olelo fire pit storytelling

    Visit the Menehune adventure trail

    There's so much to see and do at Aulani, but one way to get a lay of the land is by completing the Menehune adventure trail. This interactive activity allows people both young and old to explore the resort while they answer trivia and learn about the property. Be sure to look up as you walk to see the different flowers and murals on the walls. You'll need to pick up a tablet from the community hall in order to participate and it's included in your stay.

    See the Mo'Olelo fire pit storytelling

    At night you'll want to head over to the firepit located by the beach for a storytelling experience conducted by Uncle. Each night you'll be able to hear traditional Hawaiian stories that have been passed down from generation to generation. You'll want to check the app for accurate times but usually there are showtimes at 5:45pm, 6:30pm, 7:15pm, and 8pm.

    Disney

    KA WA‘A – A Lū‘au on Oʻahu

    Watch live entertainment

    You'll find lots of live music and dancing at Aulani during your stay. Enjoy local musicians playing traditional Hawaiian tunes and pop classics or you may catch Uncle or Auntie Cass walking around playing the ukulele with some hula dancers by their side.

    During my trip, I saw Uncle and Auntie Cass walking around the resort at various times of the day and they stopped at different locations to entertain the guests in the vicinity. There was also a live-action Moana show during one of the days of my stay which was adorable and brought theme park quality entertainment to the resort.

    Go to Aunty's Beach House

    Kids ages 4 to 12 can enjoy a variety of activities at Aunty's Beach House during their stay at Aulani. Most of the activities are complimentary, however, there are some paid experiences that you can sign up for if you'd like.

    Disney

    Kula Wai at Lanwai

    Relax on the beach

    You can head on down to the beach to take a dip in the ocean or simply watch the waves crash onto the shore. Hotel guests can check out complimentary beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards to use while they are there or bring their own.There's also the chance to rent out snorkel gear and paddleboards if that's something you're interested in exploring during your stay. Be sure to head over to the beach during sunset to catch the most picturesque view.

    Participate in a paid activity

    While there are a handful of included activities, there are also paid activities you can sign up for. These vary based on the day but some of the most popular include making your own ears, hair braiding, painting, scuba diving lessons, and fish feeding opportunities.

    Go to the Laniwai

    Although Aulani is a resort, the property is also home to a spa and fitness center. At Laniwai, you'll be able to book an appointment for a spa treatment of your choosing from massages to manicures and hair styling sessions. These come at an additional cost, but treatments come with access to the Kula Wai which has other relaxing amenities including heated pools, rainfall showers, whirlpools, and cold plunges.

    Disney

    ‘AMA‘AMA Contemporary Island Cooking

    Where to eat at Aulani

    There is no shortage of food options while visiting Aulani from quick service locations to sit down restaurants, bars, and character dining. I went to almost all of the dining locations during my stay aside from Ama Ama.

    On select night's each week guests can participate in a traditional Hawaiian luau, called the Ka Wa'A Luau, on the lawn of the resort. With live music, hula dancing, and singing, guests are transported into the culture right in front of their eyes. I absolutely loved the luau from the food to the show. It was definitely more of a spectacle with incredible storytelling, lots of fire, and even some special Disney friends.

    For more casual meals, there are more quick-service dining options such as Ulu Cafe

    Off The Hook, The Olelo Room, and Mama's Snack Stop. Ulu Cafe had delicious breakfast flatbreads and noodle bowls – plus you don't want to forget to try the Olu Mel cupcake. For dessert, be sure to stop by Papalua Shave Ice and Little Opihi to grab the viral rainbow shaved ice and classic Dole Whip.

    If you're interested in meeting characters as you eat, Makahiki has a character dining meal every morning. The three-course meal allows guests to enjoy traditional Hawaiian dishes while they meet some special characters.

    How much does Aulani cost?

    Disney

    Ka Maka Grotto

    In terms of price, Disney's Aulani Resort & Spa is pricey. Frankly, it's more expensive than a standard room at some deluxe hotels at Walt Disney World. The standard room rate starts at $999 per night. While you don't need to spend a week at the resort, even three or four nights will run you between $3,000-$4,000. Although you do get access to the pool area and the character meet and greets, that price doesn't include food and drinks or booked excursions — all of that is separate.

    How many nights is enough at Aulani?

    Disney

    A one-bedroom suite

    I can only speak from experience but I'd say four days is the perfect amount of time to stay at Aulani. During that time period, you'll be able to relax, enjoy the amenities and see different characters without having to rush. If you plan on staying longer in Hawaii, there are other hotels you can stay at and sights to see which you can find more about below.

    Are there rides at Disney Aulani?

    Disney

    Waikolohe Stream

    No, there are no rides at Aulani since it's only a resort and not a theme park. While there are character sightings at the resort, there are no rides or attractions for hotel guests to experience during their stay.

    Can non guests go to Aulani?

    Disney

    Wailana Pool

    Yes, non-guests can go to Aulani, however, they won't be able to participate in the character meet and greets, included activities, or swim in the lazy river or pools. A majority of non-resort guests visit the property to eat at some of the resort's top-tier dining options.

    The Royal Hawaiian

    Other hotels on Oahu

    While I loved my time at Aulani, I decided to venture to other parts of Oahu and checked out some other gorgeous properties.

    The Royal Hawaiian

    As a pink enthusiast, The Royal Hawaiian is a historic hotel that's all pink. From pink buildings to pink pancakes at breakfast, you'll be immersed in a chic and sophisticated pink palace. Located only steps away from the Royal Hawaiian Center, it's the perfect spot if you're looking to get a feel for Waikiki. My favorite part of my stay at the hotel was the hospitality — all of the staff were so friendly from the front desk workers to the valet employees.

    In terms of food, I mentioned above that Aulani had a luau but there's also one at The Royal Hawaiian that's worth checking out. Aha'aina takes place steps away from the beach and you can listen to traditional Hawaiian stories while being entertained by hula dancers, singers, and fire knife dancers.

    Outrigger Reef - Waikiki Beach

    Outrigger Reef - Waikiki Beach

    I also spent a few days at Outrigger Reef - Waikiki Beach which was right on the beach. When I tell you that my room was directly on top of the water I mean it — I was essentially sleeping on top of the waves. The rooms were chic, clean, and modern, but where the property really stood out was the location. It's right next to the shopping district and steps away from the beach. I took advantage of the on-site dining locations such as Monkeypod Kitchen which was absolutely delicious. Not only did it have a breathtaking view of the beach, but the flatbread was unlike anything I've ever had. Plus, I had a reservation at Merriman's Honolulu which was a 10 minute drive from the hotel and I was blown away. The property was so close to everything I wanted to check out during my stay while still providing a feeling of luxury.

    In light of our current administration's desire to downsize the federal government, the National Parks Service was hit with around 1,000 layoffs in February – that means the crucial workers that maintain trails and camping grounds, man visitor centers, collect park fees, keep grounds clean, and more are no longer present.

    This puts the safety (and cleanliness) of our national parksat risk. Whether it’s first-time visitors that don’t fully understand the mantra of ‘pack in, pack out’ or adventurers seeking their next summit, we’ve lost some of the proper guidance that makes the parks what they are: magical!

    Your next visit to America’s national parks may look different at this time as the visitor experience has lost its charm due to these mass layoffs.

    As the busy season starts to pick up, we’re sharing 5 ways to visit national parks responsibly and safely.

    1. Follow 'leave no trace' principles.

    Rachel Vine / PEXELS

    Because many National Parks workers and rangers were laid off, each parks’ efforts to keep trails, campgrounds, visitor centers, and restrooms may be minimized, irregular, or non-existent. Following ‘leave no trace’ principles implies your full responsibility for cleaning up the trash, food scraps, and more that you bring into the park.

    Leaving no trace also includes staying on designated trails to prevent erosion that could impact local ecosystems and wildlife. And when it comes to wildlife, it’s best to not interact with their habitats – keep a safe distance and never feed the animals you may come across. This is also for your own safety!

    For more information and guidance on how you can leave no trace, visitLNT.org.

    2. Plan ahead.

    Robert Forever Ago / PEXELS

    If your national park itinerary includes day hiking, backpacking, or camping, planning ahead will be a key step in making sure your trip is as seamless as can be. This is especially pertinent as certain trails and areas may experience closures in light of the recent NPS layoffs.

    So, what does planning ahead look like? It could be checking park websites in advance to be aware of any closures, fees, wait times, or limited services, bringing your own maps, first-aid kits, and packing plenty of food and water.

    3. Get familiar with being self-sufficient.

    Andy Vu / PEXELS

    This next method for responsibly visiting national parks goes hand-in-hand with ‘leave no trace’ and planning ahead. Since certain park rescue and ranger positions were also affected by the cuts, you’ll want to be 100% positive that you’ve brought everything you need in case of an emergency.

    You’re not entirely on your own, though. During your visit, you’re sure to run into friendly faces that know basic first aid principles, how to read a map, and how to reach out for help if it’s needed. Make a friend on the trail or campground and simply show up for each other!

    4. Be patient and respectful.

    Zetong Li / PEXELS

    Fewer workers and rangers in the national parks may mean slower service, whether it’s waiting to enter the parks or pay for goods. Of course, a slower process puts on a strain on everyone – visitors and workers alike. Be kind to staff and fellow parks lovers, and avoid peak hours to reduce any strain on park resources.

    5. Support the parks through donations and volunteer work.

    Lara Jameson / PEXELS

    If you can’t make it out to (or simply don’t want to visit) a national park this season, you can still show your love and support for the parks by donating directly to NPS or groups like National Parks Conservation Association.

    Additionally, contacting lawmakers in your local government for better park funding can be effective in making sure your voice is heard. Finally, you could also join volunteer programs in your nearest national park for things like trail maintenance or clean-ups.

    Calling all Tina Fey fans: Netflix just dropped a teaser trailer for her latest project, The Four Seasons. The inevitably hilarious series is set to premiere worldwide on Thursday, May 1 — and we already can't wait to see this cast full of very funny people get into some very funny antics.

    Scroll to find out everything you need to know about The Four Seasons on Netflix!

    What is 'The Four Seasons' about?

    Netflix

    The Four Seasons is inspired by the 1981 movie of the same title. It follows long-time friends and couples – played by Tina Fey and Will Forte, Steve Carell and Kerri Kenney-Silver, and Colman Domingo and Marco Calvani – as they commit to going on four seasonal vacations together in Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.

    Along the way, the group learns that one couple is going to break up, and the series shows "how this shake-up affects everyone's dynamic, sending old issues and new bubbling to the surface," according to an official synopsis.

    Who's in 'The Four Seasons' cast?

    Netflix

    Decades ago, the rom-com included big names such as Alan Alda, who wrote, directed, and starred in the film, as well as Carol Burnett, Rita Moreno, Sandy Dennis, and Jack Weston.

    Now, Tina's new iteration of The Four Seasons has another star-studded cast:

    • Tina Fey
    • Will Forte
    • Steve Carell
    • Kerri Kenney-Silver
    • Colman Domingo
    • Marco Calvani

    Aside from the main actors portraying the three couples, fans can look forward to seeing other stars gracing their screen! They include:

    • Alan Alda
    • Ashyln Maddox
    • Julia Lester
    • Jacob Buckenmyer
    • Taylor Ortega
    • Toby Edward Huss
    • Tommy Do
    • Simone Recasner

    Who created 'The Four Seasons'?

    Netflix

    Tina Fey has masterminded The Four Seasons as the creator, co-showrunner, executive producer, and writer, working alongside Tracey Wigfield and Lang Fisher, who also directs. The show was produced under Universal Television, and additional executive producers include David Miner and Eric Guiran.

    As for directorial responsibilities, the duty was split among several talents. Robert Pulcini and Shari Springer Berman take on the first two episodes, followed by Oz Rodriguez for episodes three and four. Then, executive producer Jeff Richmond steered episode five, while Colman Domingo stepped in for episode six. The final two episodes are directed by co-creator and showrunner Lang Fisher.

    Tina Fey has already solidified herself as a powerhouse writer. After leaving Saturday Night Live in 2006, she created the TV show 30 Rock, which premiered in October of that year and ran until 2013. Then, she co-created the sitcom Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt with Robert Carlock in 2015, which ran for four seasons.

    Where can I watch 'The Four Seasons'?

    Netflix

    Once The Four Seasons debuts, you can stream it on Netflix!

    Netflix was able to secure the series after a competitive bidding war. The Four Seasons became a sought-after comedy following the labor strikes of 2023, and in early 2024, the streaming giant granted the show a straight-to-series order.

    When does 'The Four Seasons' come out?

    Netflix

    The Four Seasons debuts on Netflix on May 1, 2025!

    How many episodes will 'The Four Seasons' have?
