One of the best vacations I ever had lasted just two days and was spent in a local resort just thirty minutes from the house.

Seriously.

Some times we all just need a short little get-a-way, right? Nothing big like a real vacation, but something that let’s us feel like we’ve escaped the Mount Everest of laundry or the calendar of screaming deadlines. Some times we just need to unplug, slow down, breathe. Even if it’s for just two days.

I found my respite at the Westin La Cantera.

What I experienced is beyond what words can describe. The Westin La Cantera is quite simply an experience.
The resort did not miss a beat – from its nightly turn down service, to its amazingly friendly staff, to its making my daughter feel like a million bucks…

…the attention to detail was astounding!

There are several things that I fell in love with at the resort. And in an effort to be fair on all accounts, I cannot write an entire single post with all that I have to say… So I’ve designed a series of posts. I hope that you’ll join me for the first couple of Tuesdays in August for a glimpse of this true gem of an escape.
