Neredia (Nettie) Bates

Hi! My name is Nettie. I live in Mandeville, Louisiana with my amazing husband, Jared, and our three beautiful princesses—Sofia, Elliana, and Mila. I grew up with a love and passion for Disney, and I’m so excited to share that same joy with my family. Disney truly feels like our Home Away from Home!

Disney holds a special place in my heart, and I’ve visited numerous times—each visit filled with new magic and memories. Experiencing the parks with my daughters and seeing their faces light up during character interactions, rides, and those unforgettable Main Street moments is exactly why I’m passionate about helping you create your own magical experiences. I know how impactful these trips can be, and as part of the Say Magical Vacations team, I’m here to make them effortless and extraordinary.

But my love of travel extends far beyond Disney. I absolutely enjoy exploring new destinations and helping families discover the perfect vacation for their unique needs. Whether it’s an action-packed adventure at Universal Studios, a relaxing escape to an all-inclusive resort like Sandals, or a fun-filled cruise to breathtaking ports around the world, I truly enjoy helping my clients experience the joy of travel in all its forms.

Every family dreams differently, and as part of Say Magical Vacations and Say Dream Travel, I’m here to make your vacation planning easy, stress-free, and unforgettable. So whether you're dreaming of a magical Disney vacation, craving a serene beach getaway, or ready to set sail on the open seas, I’m here to help you create a trip filled with lifelong memories.

And the best part… my services are completely FREE! Let's start planning the vacation you've been Dreaming about!
