Begin Your Vacation Design Experience

My love for Disney Destinations began when I was a child who eagerly waited for each new edition of Birnbaum’s Guide to Walt Disney World and learned everything I could about the parks—and that foundational research has shaped how I work as a travel advisor and agency owner.

But beyond the research, I found joy in planning vacations: not because I wanted a perfect schedule, but because I found the process itself to be just as beautiful as the vacations it produced.

At Ani McHugh Travel, we believe that this joyful anticipation should be a signature part our clients' experiences—and that the planning stages of their vacations should feel effortless and stress-free.

I'm Ani — owner and principal advisor of Ani McHugh Travel.

Hi there!

Whether I’m designing a family’s first Disney vacation, helping clients select the resort that perfectly matches their travel style, or guiding them through all the details they didn’t even know to consider, my approach is always the same: thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in education.

That foundation became the heart of Ani McHugh Travel.

As a high school English teacher with a Master’s degree in education and a specialty in research, I’ve spent more than two decades learning how people process information, make decisions, and build confidence and trust.

My vacation-planning philosophy is shaped by my background in education.

MY STORY

Because your vacation is an investment. And every detail deserves to be designed with care.

The most extraordinary trips aren’t copied from someone else’s itinerary or built from generic recommendations. They’re created through understanding: your family, your priorities, your pace, and the moments you’ll remember long after you return home.

Today, I lead a team of advisors who share that philosophy. We combine destination expertise, personalized guidance, and concierge-level services to help our clients arrive with clarity, confidence, and excitement.
