Oops. Just reread your question...

Half Moon Bay x100, especially if you are a golfer, but even if you aren't the view is unbelievable. My wife and I dropped a LOT of dough here in a weekend though

Thanks FB fam. None of them are available on points the weekend we want to go. Anyone been to the Ritz in New Orleans? How is it?

I have been to the Ritz in NO with my husband. As always, Ritz overall was nice. Biggest downer was room was super small and old (but decorated well, if a bit old fashioned). Overlooked the inside of the building. No outdoor area, but It's really close to Bourbon street and i was there to party so that was a big plus. Felt upscale to listen to the Jazz in the Ritz bar area before heading out and getting bombed in the real bars. Lots of fun - not sure if "romantic" comes to mind.

Thanks A2. That's helpful. I'll have to pick another property then.

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed. I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out
