Family Vacation Designer & Specialist
In May 2004, I began designing vacations for guests, specializing in Disney Destinations vacations. In June 2011, I joined Tricia Belfonti and helped to build and develop Castle Dreams Travel, also at the time only specializing and selling vacations to Disney Destinations- but has since become a full service travel agency selling vacations to every corner of the planet.
When I travel anywhere, I always try something new- be it a resort, place to eat, or experience. I travel to a Disney Destination, a Universal Resort, and cruise on a Royal Caribbean Cruise at least once a year and I have been very lucky to sail onboard Disney Cruise Line on over a dozen different sailings, several Royal Caribbean Cruise Line sailings, visited Disney's Aulani Resort and Spa, and have taken 3 very different Adventure by Disney vacations as well as multiple visits to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Universal Orlando and Universal Hollywood Resorts. I have also been fortunate enough to sail on Princess Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruise Line, MSC Cruise Line, and Virgin Voyages. I take all of these experiences with me when I plan vacations for others plus I am constantly training and learning all about everything new and upcoming in the travel industry.
My absolutely favorite trip I was able to take with my family was an incredible cruise through the Mediterranean. We spent a few nights in Barcelona before boarding an amazing 7 night cruise. We walked through amazing towns and historical sites right out of the history books, ate some of the most amazing meals we have ever eaten together, and just thoroughly enjoyed each others company. Take the trip- you won't ever regret it!

Trip planning made simple!
Reviewed By Schiller07 - Cedar Rapids, IA | Traveled to Caribbean
Dawn took care of everything. It was so easy. All I had to do was give Dawn my ideas and criteria for our trip, and she handled the rest. It was so much easier than having to work with customer service from the trip vendor. She even sent us luggage tags and other items we needed for our trip to help us prepare. Great communication, knowledgeable, and wonderful to work with.

Thank you Dawn!
Reviewed By Audrey - Toronto, Canada | Traveled to Bahamas ~ Caribbean
For many years now, Dawn has taken care of our travel needs. I tend to want to have full control over planning of things. With Dawn, I get to have control and also trust that Dawn always has my family's best interests in mind. I have not hesitated to recommend Dawn to my friends and family and will continue to do so. With Dawn, you always know you are being taken care of. This peace of mind means a lot to me and my family and makes our vacations less stressful and more relaxing.
