For this blog post I partnered with bestie Brianna, who is a South Bay Native and she’s currently still live there working as a local real estate agent. She is truly an expert on all things San Jose!

When having friends that come visit the Silicon Valley, they typically just think of going to San Francisco but in reality, San Jose is a destination in its own right. In the past few years San Jose has been making a name for itself as a place to visit, I mean it is a major part of Silicon Valley!

I recently had a fun San Jose staycation with my blogger besties, hosted by Signia by Hilton San Jose. We stayed in a lovely luxury suite and our itinerary was jam-packed with local fun. Throughout our stay, we enjoyed lounging by the pool, a shopping spree in Santana Row, late night spa fun with the bubbly flowing, and then brunch in the morning.
