Raise your hand if you're overdue for a real break. If so, there's a Forbes Five-Star resort in Southern California with your name on it.

Rancho Valencia Resort & Spa is 45 acres of citrus groves and Mediterranean architecture just north of San Diego, and it has collected some of the most serious recognition in domestic travel. Forbes Five Star. AAA Five Diamond. Ranked the number one resort in California by U.S. News & World Report. The spa alone is worth the trip.

What makes it stand out: it has the intimacy of a boutique hotel with the amenities of a much larger resort. Fresh-squeezed orange juice delivered to your casita every morning. A Bentley fleet available to borrow. World-class tennis across 20 courts, including red clay. The Pony Room restaurant, serving coastal ranch cuisine that is significantly better than resort dining has any right to be.

If you’re looking for a California trip that doesn't involve LAX or the usual resort experience, this is the one I come back to.

Summer travel doesn't have to mean Europe. Some of the best itineraries I'm building right now are in Southeast Asia.

The island-hopping combination of Thailand and Indonesia is one of the strongest trips I put together. Private villas, boat charters through some of the most spectacular water in the world, extraordinary food, and a value proposition that Europe simply cannot compete with at the moment.

Thailand's Andaman islands, Koh Lanta, Koh Yao Noi, and the stretches well away from the main Phuket strip, set the tone beautifully before connecting into Bali as a second base. The Komodo Islands for diving and wildlife. Lombok for something calmer. Raja Ampat for some of the best marine biodiversity on earth.

to sharing secrets with “La Abuela” in Bogota, Colombia 🇨🇴

Colombia is one of those destinations that truly has it all—beautiful beaches, colorful cities, lush mountains, incredible food, and endless adventure! Whether you want to wander vibrant streets, relax along the Caribbean coast, sip coffee surrounded by rolling hills, or explore somewhere that feels exciting and authentic, Colombia delivers. It’s the kind of destination that surprises people in the best way and leaves travelers wondering why they didn’t visit sooner! ✈️

I've sent many clients to Iguazú Falls. Not one has come back saying it wasn't worth it 💦

Gran Meliá Iguazú is the only hotel located inside the Argentine national park, putting guests closer to the falls than any other property in the area. That means early access before day visitors arrive and a completely different atmosphere once they leave.

Staying on the Argentine side also gives access to the Brazilian perspective, which offers a panoramic view that's entirely different from the up-close experience. The falls span nearly 2 miles and include 275 individual cascades.

Advisor Tip: Buenos Aires, the wine country of Mendoza, and Patagonia all connect well with a few nights here!

Every room. Every suite. Every view faces the Taj Mahal.

Oberoi Amarvilas, less than half a mile from the East Gate, consistently ranks among the top hotels in Asia and is one of the first properties I mention when a client says India is on their list.

India trips are also some of the most talked-about trips my clients ever take. Not just during the trip, for years after. The country rewards great planning more than almost anywhere else I send people, and this is one of the properties I build that planning around.

I'd love to help design the right journey. Get in touch to start planning!

Grace Bay gets all the attention in Turks & Caicos 🏝️

But when we’re planning trips for clients who want something a little calmer and isolated, we usually suggest The Shore Club at Long Bay Beach.

The property? Beautifully spread out across several courtyards rather than centered around one busy pool deck.

The beach? Long Bay Beach offers incredibly calm, shallow water and a much more relaxed atmosphere than the main stretch of Providenciales. (Fun fact: This shoreline is also one of the top kiteboarding destinations in the world.)

The pools? Four different options throughout the resort, so couples can find quiet corners while families still have plenty of space to enjoy the property.

The dining? Sui-Ren is a standout here, bringing together Peruvian and Japanese flavors in a way that feels a little unexpected for the Caribbean.

I personally had the best lobster dinner here and enjoyed dancing the night away to a very good guitar player/sinter!

If you’ve been thinking about a Caribbean vacation, this is a fantastic option ✨

Wellness travel has changed. The best wellness trips today are designed around how you actually want to feel when you come home 💫

For some clients, it's a full immersion: Ayurvedic programs in Sri Lanka, thermal circuits in Iceland, or a dedicated retreat in Tuscany. For others, it's more woven in: morning yoga in Bali, a hammam in Morocco, a long hike in the Swiss Alps, followed by a serious dinner.

A few things I always build into wellness itineraries: spa programs rooted in local culture, not just a massage menu. Outdoor movement that actually connects you to where you are. Culinary wellness: farm-to-table dining and cooking classes that treat food as part of the restoration. And mindfulness is built into the schedule rather than squeezed in! 🧘🏻‍♀️

If you're thinking about a trip centered around how you feel, not just where you go, I'd love to help design it!

DIY travel planning looks free. It rarely is!

Researching hotels, reading through reviews, comparing itineraries, and figuring out which experiences are actually worth booking rather than just well-marketed. A two-week trip often represents 20 to 30 hours of work before anything is confirmed. For most people, that time has a real cost.

Then there's the invisible cost: what you don't know you're missing. The hotel that looks strong online but has a known service issue. The guide who changes how a destination feels entirely. The upgrade that was available and simply never offered. The reservation that could have been made three months out and wasn't.

And the small mistakes that add up. A transfer that doesn't account for timing. A sequence of stops that requires unnecessary backtracking. A decision made without context that costs more to fix than it would have cost to get right from the beginning.

Working with a travel advisor doesn't just save time. It changes the quality of the trip, and often the cost of it.

If you're planning something and want it done correctly, that's exactly what I'm here for! 🥂
