Tax Deduction or Expense in Maui (Or any Vacation!)

My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Maui in November (YEA!). Am I able to deduct at least a portion of the trip as a 'business expense' if I schedule an appointment with a Real Estate Agent to look at some real estate? I am a real estate investor, but I do not have a business entity. Will this work? Thanks for the input!

@Darius Falahkhir talk to your CPA. Often, a portion of the travel can be written off. Just because you don't buy something doesn't make it non-business travel.
