Ashley takes the stage in this episode, sharing the story of her unforgettable birthday trip. What began as a plan to celebrate in Bora Bora quickly changed when business class flights proved impossible to book. With a flight credit in hand, she pivoted to Cancun — a destination she knows and loves.

The first half of her stay at the Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen brought a few bumps, but things truly unraveled when she moved to a second hotel. After a series of bizarre, frustrating, and downright unbelievable experiences, Ashley found herself repeating one mantra: “We should have stayed at the JW.”

Listen in as Ashley walks us through the wild twists and turns of her birthday getaway — and stick around for a sneak peek at what’s coming next on Travel Chat with Ashley and Emily.
