Let's Just Go

In this episode of Let’s Just Go, Kayla and Chris kick off their Disneyland Resort Hotel series with the newly reimagined Pixar Place Hotel! Formerly Paradise Pier, this property brings vibrant Pixar theming to the forefront—but does the experience live up to the price tag? Kayla shares her honest thoughts as a Disneyland regular, Chris reminisces about his first Disneyland trip, and they both break down the perks (and quirks) of this on-site hotel. From early park entry and private entrances to elevator drama and club level caveats, this one has it all. If you’re considering a Disneyland vacation, this episode will help you decide if Pixar Place is a fit for your trip.

In this episode, Kayla grills Chris (figuratively, not jerk chicken-style) about his recent trip to Sandals Royal Caribbean and Sandals Montego Bay in Jamaica. From beachfront butler service to breakfast buffets and balcony bathtubs, this episode covers what it’s really like at these iconic all-inclusive resorts.

They talk about:

• The differences between Royal Caribbean & Montego Bay
• Whether you actually need a butler (spoiler: maybe)
• Who should consider Sandals vs. other all-inclusives
• What’s included (and what’s surprisingly not)
• How Club MoBay changes your entire airport experience
• And yes... the clothing-optional beach section.

If you’ve ever wondered whether Sandals lives up to the heart-shaped-honeymoon hype, this one’s for you. Whether you're all about the jerk shack or more interested in retiring at the quiet pool, Chris and Kayla are spilling the island tea.

🎧 Tune in now and find out if your next vacation should be at Sandals.

In this bonus episode of Let’s Just Go, Kayla and Chris wrap up their Walt Disney World Resort series with one of the most unique places you can stay on Disney property: Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. From deluxe-rated cabins with full kitchens and bunk beds to tent sites and RV hookups, this sprawling resort doesn't quite fit the mold—and that’s exactly why it has such a loyal following.

They cover:

• What makes the cabins a great (or not-so-great) fit for families
• What to expect with campground logistics and transportation
• Why the resort has a cult following, especially during the holidays
• Dining highlights like Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue and Trail’s End
• Who this resort is for… and who might want to look elsewhere

Whether you're planning to grill at your cabin or rent a golf cart and ride over to Magic Kingdom, Fort Wilderness is unlike anywhere else at Disney. But as always, the key is setting the right expectations.
