About Juicy Hotels

Juicy Hotels was conceived of on the roof deck of good friends' house in San Francisco while dreaming of finding a sunny last minute trip. The only problem was, it was impossible to find a sunny place and find cool hotels in the places that were finally found to be sunny. So, this site was born from wishing there were a good way to see all of the sunny places on the planet and have an easy link to hotels in those places.

It was also a natural progression from an ongoing love of travel, finding neat hotels, constantly reading travel magazines for fun with hundreds of magazines dogeared and marked for future hopeful trips. As a web developer of many years, it just made sense to build my own perfect travel site. So I did. It's the site I wish I could have found when I was looking for the perfect sunny trip, which never happened because I couldn't find a sunny place to go!

What makes this site special is that all of the hotels in the individual pages have been hand picked by me, editor of Juicy Hotels. They come from the pages of the best travel magazines, from personal experience and from recommendations from friends whose travel tastes I trust. Also, the ability to find hotels based on the amenity database being constantly added to is pretty cool. Where else are you going to find a hotel with outdoor showers + cooking classes + yoga, and in just one click be able to see the hotel's website and request availability and pricing? Nowhere, as far as I can tell.

I'm always interested in adding more categories, amenities, activities and in hearing about your favorite hotels. Please send ideas, feedback, hotel tips and more to laura@juicyhotels.com

Come back and visit often. There are many more features and improvements coming to Juicy Hotels.

As always, it's supposed to be fun! Travel joyously and tell me all about your favorite hotels!
