Frequently Asked Questions
Do you charge any fees?
We are not charging fees for luxury hotel and resort bookings if you know exactly what you want. We do charge fees for more complicated itineraries and a plan to go deposit for luxury hotels if you require assistance choosing one. Please reach out for a free consultation.
HOW CAN YOU NOT CHARGE FEES FOR HOTEL BOOKINGS?
Hotel & resort rates already have travel agent commissions embedded in them. If you choose to book direct, they simply keep the commission as extra profits. If you choose to book with a travel agent, the hotels will pay the travel agent.
Why Should I book with you?
Through our affiliations with Montecito Village Travel and Virtuoso®, we are able to secure complimentary amenities and benefits at our partner hotels that add tremendous value to your luxury hotel and resort stays.
Most importantly, we are able to take stress out of your life by being able to guide you on what is the best fit for your family and then help you with the little but BIG things such as transportation, excursions, dining, etc.
How does this work?
Contact us and let us know where you’d like to go!
Depending on the complexity of the trip, we try to set up an initial consultation and/or provide proposals within 48 hours after receiving all the necessary info.
Once a proposal has been approved, we will book directly with the hotel or tour operator with your credit card and send you the confirmation for your review.
We will confirm all of your reservations before your departure and let the hotels know our VIPs are on their way! Bon Voyage!
Prefer to work alone? Just want the Virtuoso amenities?
Access our Self Booking Platform. Use our exclusive Virtuoso webpage to book directly yourself. We will follow up within 24 hours with confirmation.
However, I do suggest reaching out. I am usually able to provide some important advice, a better avenue to book, or a better price via wholesalers. A human being with real experience!
do you book air?
Yes, fees of $75 per ticket will apply.
how does it work with points?
When we book directly with a hotel or airline, you will be able to accumulate points. We are not able to redeem any reward points on your behalf.
do you work with international clients?
Yes, we often work with non US residents.
