Travel + Leisure readers just voted this the best resort in Europe, and I could not agree more.

Castiglion del Bosco, a Rosewood hotel on a 5,000-acre estate in Montalcino, took the top resort spot in Europe in this year's World's Best Awards with a near-perfect score. Add two Michelin stars at Ristorante Campo del Drago, three Michelin Keys, and an estate w**ery producing its own Brunello di Montalcino, and the case pretty much makes itself.

Golfers, save this part. The estate is home to the only private golf club in Italy, a Tom Weiskopf-designed 18-hole course that hotel guests can actually play. Expect Val d'Orcia views on every hole and almost no one else on the course.

Ready to experience Europe's best resort for yourself? Reach out, and I'll handle every detail.

The hotel currently ranked #9 in the world isn't on a beach. It's deep in the Yucatán jungle.

Chablé Yucatán, a restored 19th-century hacienda outside Mérida, holds the #9 spot on the World's 50 Best Hotels list and was just named the Best Hotel in North America for the third year in a row.

The claim to fame is the spa, built around a natural cenote, one of the underground pools the Maya considered sacred. It was the first spa in the world designed that way.

Every casita comes with its own private pool and jungle views. Dinner is its own event too, with menus shaped by Jorge Vallejo of Mexico City's famed Quintonil and a tequila library so deep it earned a Guinness World Record.

Advisor tip: pair it with the ruins of Uxmal and a day in Mérida's colonial center. Mexico beyond the beach is one of my favorite trips to plan. Let's talk.

Croatia keeps landing on client wish lists, and honestly, this footage explains it better than I can.

More than a thousand islands along the Adriatic. Medieval walled towns like Dubrovnik and Korčula. Waterfalls stacked through the national parks, and an entire peninsula, Istria, devoted to truffles and w**e. My favorite way to do it all is by sea, on a crewed yacht for the week, dropping anchor wherever looks best at lunchtime.

Advisor tip: June and September are the smart months, with warm swimming, open tables, and a fraction of the August crowds.

Yes, I know you're asking AI about your next trip. Honestly? Keep doing it.

AI is useful early on: gathering ideas, comparing regions, figuring out what kind of trip you're actually in the mood for, drafting the packing list. Bring me all of it. A client who arrives with a screenshot of ideas gives me a head start I love.

Here's where the handoff happens: AI hasn't slept in the rooms. It doesn't know the hotel changed hands last year, which room category is worth the jump, or that the famous restaurant is coasting. It can't see live availability, add upgrades and credits through my partnerships, or answer the phone when your connection cancels at midnight.

Dream with AI. Book with a human. Send me what you've got and I'll take it the rest of the way.

Trend alert. Glowcations are one of the most requested trips of the year, and the requests keep coming for 2027.

So what is one? A glowcation is a trip built around skin, rest, and wellness rituals, with the goal of coming home visibly better than when you left. Less sightseeing marathon, more treatments, thermal waters, deep sleep, and good food doing their quiet work.

The destinations doing it best right now include South Korea, for K-beauty facials and bathhouse culture. Thailand, for herbal therapies and some of the finest massage traditions anywhere. And Europe, from Swiss longevity clinics to Italian thermal springs and Greek island wellness retreats.

Advisor note: The top practitioners and signature treatments book out weeks or months ahead, so I secure them before you land. Ready to glow? Message me.

A question I hear from clients who have already done Tokyo and Kyoto: what does round two of Japan look like?

One of my favorite answers is Amanemu, Aman's hot spring resort on the Ise-Shima peninsula, a coastline of green coves and fishing villages a couple of hours southeast of Kyoto and Osaka. Every suite and villa has its own onsen bath fed by mineral-rich thermal springs, so you get Japan's beloved bathing ritual in complete privacy. No shared pools or second-guessing the etiquette.

It shines brightest on a return trip, slow and deeply Japanese in a way the big cities can't be. First-timers shouldn't rule it out either: tack three nights onto the end of a Tokyo and Kyoto route, and you'll fly home rested instead of running on fumes.

First visit or fifth, Japan always has more to give. Reach out, and I'll start planning.

What do I recommend to clients who have already done the classic safari? A salt pan the size of a small country.

Jack's Camp is set on the edge of Botswana's Makgadikgadi Pans, and it does safari like nowhere else on the continent. The signature experiences here exist almost nowhere else: sitting at sunrise with a habituated colony of meerkats (they'll climb onto your shoulder to use you as a lookout), walking the desert with Zu/'hoasi San guides who read the land like a book, and riding quad bikes far out onto the pans to sleep under a ceiling of stars.

The camp itself is legendary, rebuilt in its original 1940s expedition style with Persian rugs, brass fittings, and a tent that doubles as a working natural history museum. In the wet months, a little-known zebra migration moves through the grasslands.

Consider this the safari that surprises even the seasoned. Let's get you out on the pans.

A shift I’ve noticed in this fall’s bookings: clients are choosing the culture first and the destination second.

Seeing the landmark is easy. Understanding what you are looking at is the part that changes the trip. A temple ceremony in Bali, a festival in Mexico, and a market or fortified village in Morocco each ask something different of the traveler. Timing, local context, etiquette, and the right guide turn a colorful stop into an experience that makes sense.

This is why cultural travel cannot be reduced to a list of famous places. I plan around what is happening, how clients want to participate, and how much time the destination deserves. Some days need a guide. Others need a free afternoon after the introduction.

If there’s an art form, a tradition, or an era you love, that’s a trip. Tell me what moves you, and I’ll start planning.

How do you choose among Maldives resorts that all promise blue water and overwater villas? Start with personality.

Joali is the memorable one. Where other resorts hang a few prints, Joali suspended a life-size manta ray in the trees and put a dining table inside it. Where others plant coral frames, Joali sank sculptures on the reef and let the coral move in. Even the butlers refuse to be ordinary here. The title is Jadugar, which translates to magician.

Beneath the character, the fundamentals are flawless: Forbes Five-Star four years running, two Michelin Keys, and a top-three finish in Travel + Leisure's World's Best Hotels this year.

Anyone can promise paradise. Personality is rarer. Reach out to start planning.

The best-kept secret in travel isn't a place. It's a season.

Paris. The city in its coat season, with museums without lines, festive windows on the boulevards, and hotel rates that reward the off-peak traveler.

Niseko, Japan. The most reliable powder snow on the planet, plus onsen soaks and world-class dining after the lifts close.

L**h, Austria. The Arlberg classic. Elegant, snow-sure, and home to some of the finest family-run hotels in the Alps.

Switzerland. St. Moritz for glamour, Zermatt for the Matterhorn, both for trains that turn the journey into the highlight.

One winter, four very different trips. Message me, and I'll match you to yours.
