Lots of people go on romantic getaways sometime near Valentine’s Day. It’s a great time to take a trip with a loved one with the goal of spending some *ahem* quality time together, whether in a snowy clime or on a sunny beach. But what if you’re stuck with a menage-a-trois on your Valentines excursion, [...]

Known as one of the eco-friendliest in green lovin’ San Francisco, the Hotel Triton does its level best to live up to its rep. With ridiculous lobby decor, helpful staff, and working elevators, the smallish boutique hotel has a definitive San Francisco vibe. It’s also got a definitive San Francisco price tag—expect to pay at [...]

I adore Hawaii. Just the feel of the warm, moist air caressing my skin as I exit the plane makes me smile. As a rule, I recommend beach vacations for travelers with pain. Lying on the sand, listening to the surf pound rhythmically while I read or just kick back is remarkably restorative. But then again, [...]

Everybody who comes to Yosemite National Park wants to stay in Yosemite–unless they know better and find less expensive, nicer, or less crowded lodgings near the park but not in the park. Yosemite has plenty of in-park lodging options ranging from campsites to high end hotel suites. But mostly what Yosemite’s got lots of, for not really [...]
