A few times at the airport and on the plane, we questioned our decision to charge out and restart our life, but I knew that we'd be safe once we got to Elara.
After all, it was Father's Day, and I felt like this time together would be memorable. We had booked a 3-bedroom suite with more than 1,200 square feet so my family could safely stretch out and not be top of each other for the next seven days.
When we arrived, we knew things were different. Due to elevated safety standards, amenities like valet parking, bars and some restaurants were temporarily unavailable.
Naturally, that was a little disappointing, but the Elara team made up for it. Despite only having been open three days, the team at Elara made us feel welcomed and appreciated as Elite Owners.
They went above and beyond to ensure our trip was just as memorable as we hoped.
The experience reminded me again of why I value my ownership so much, and why I put so much trust in Hilton Grand Vacations to host my family during our most important moments.
Other than a few small inconveniences, like the closure of many stores in Miracle Mall, which was a bummer for my wife (but great for my wallet), we had a great time being together and knew we were safe with Hilton Grand Vacations.
