We book all types of travel including family vacations, honeymoons, ski vacations, multi-generational trips, weekend getaways, business travel, safaris, cruises (ocean, river & expedition) and special occasion trips. Whether you are heading to the slopes in Chamonix or the beach in Puerto Rico, we are here to help.
With so much information online that is often outdated or inaccurate it can be hard to determine fact from fiction. Can you believe the reviews online about that hotel you’re eyeing in Paris? You can trust that we stay up to date with information from recent travelers to your location and stay in-the-know on recent hotel openings, dining options, and unique tours, tasting and experiences around the globe – and you can count on these recommendations being passed along to you!
It’s all about the perks! From securing room upgrades, a complimentary breakfast or making sure a welcome amenity is waiting on your arrival, I make sure all my clients are treated like VIPs. I have access to exclusive travel advisor preferred hotel programs that are most important to you – that are not available to the public. As your advisor, I will prioritize you into these programs which puts you at the top of every upgrade and VIP list – and yes, ranked above upgrades offered through credit card providers.
You will pay the same rates or less by working with me, as you would booking online or through any prestigious credit card program, but you get more as I can add in exclusive benefits that add tremendous value to your resort and hotel stays that you can’t get booking online.
These benefits vary by property and often include:
- Preferred rates, special promotions and offers
- Complimentary daily breakfast
- Room upgrades
- Hotel credits for dining, spa, and activities
- Early check-in/late check-out
- VIP status and personalized service (they will be expecting you when you arrive). My bookings get noticed and prioritized by hoteliers due to the relationships we have with them.
We work on a commission basis. Which means when we book your hotel we make a commission on the hotel we book on your behalf. The majority of a travel advisor’s job is done on the front-end of a trip. We put in a tremendous amount of time designing a custom itinerary and sharing knowledge with you that we’ve garnered over the years.
When a hotel or resort pays a travel advisor a commission its usually around 10% of the room rate. Commission is paid only AFTER a clients’ travel is completed. And if our clients don’t travel for any reason we do not get paid.
Absolutely! Whether you're traveling for two nights or two weeks, it costs you nothing extra to have me book your stay. Through my preferred partnerships with many luxury hotels and resorts, I can often provide complimentary perks such as resort credits, room upgrades (when available), breakfast, a welcome amenity, early check-in, and late check-out. Why not enjoy a few extra VIP touches when they come at no additional cost?
Yes! If you already know where you'd like to stay, I can make the booking for you (or sometimes even take over an existing reservation) and add any eligible benefits available through my preferred partner programs.

If you are looking to go away but not sure exactly where, we can help. After a discovery call, I’ll take your preferences and budget into account to craft a personalized proposal featuring at least three destination or three cruise options for you to consider.
Custom Trip Design (Accommodation Bookings + Destination Research + Tours + Transfers)
Fee: $250 and up (depending on the number of quotes, countries, number of travelers, length and complexity of trip)
Custom trip design is for clients seeking a custom-tailored travel experience. I will put in many hours of time to ensure you have the exact experience you are looking for, saving you time and avoiding 1,000's of pages of search results to sort through on your own. My destination knowledge, network of travel partners around the world and on-the-ground contacts in your destination ensure I am selecting the best experiences and optimal value for our clients. I am confident that you'll agree this service fee will give you back infinitely more value (your time!) far above the actual dollars and cents.
