Local Foreigner

Local Foreigner is a team of expert travel advisors. Local Foreigner is a boutique consultancy specializing in high-end curated travel.

From the bespoke to the basic, we guide our clients on everything from a weekend in Paris to an expedition to Patagonia, a yacht charter in the Mediterranean to a safari in Botswana. Our mission is to serve as trusted tastemakers who curate authentic experiences and connect discerning travelers with passionate locals. We’re a team of four women, and one of us is constantly on the road scouting hotels, testing guides, scoping out what’s worth it and what’s not.

On 567 acres of jungle on the remote western coast of Sumba Island in eastern Indonesia, NIHI Sumba is a destination property that's reached almost mythical status. The Local Foreigner team just returned from a visit, and their feedback says it all. "NIHI Sumba is like finding the love of your life - the whole experience just gets under your skin in the best way. I could talk about the wild horses for days (and honestly would go back just for them), but NIHI also has this magical combination of a stunning beach-meets-jungle setting, a killer lineup of activities, excellent food, a cool, international, low-key hot crowd, and a healthy sprinkling of something magical you can’t quite put your finger on. It stays with you and makes you want to return the second you leave." We're dedicating this week's Friday Feedback to its myriad charms - head to stories for more.

Named for the Antiguan word for “playful spirit,” Jumby Bay has perfected the art of living well - not that it’s hard on a 300-acre private island, where sugar white beaches stretch for miles and steel drum melodies provide a windswept soundtrack. With Jumby’s all-inclusive pricing, enjoying your stay is as carefree as [having someone else pour] that second glass of Tattinger. Holiday plans, anyone?

I saw Local Foreigner advisor James McLaren doodling in his notebook and in all the margins, it said "I ❤️ St. Barth's." Fitting, because he recently came back from his second trip in three months buzzing with all his favorites, and then headed straight for the "Feedback" tab in our CRM and let it all tumble out, and we're sharing some of the highlights today in Stories.

The largest of the Balearic Islands, Mallorca is hot, hot, hot for 2025 - maybe it has something to do with the fact that it's incredibly well connected by air to all of Europe (and there's even a seasonal non-stop from New York), the landscapes are full of drama, the hotels are incredibly romantic, the water looks like it was painted by Pantone, and everyone gets 60% more beautiful immediately upon arrival? Just a guess. But trust us on this: in a month, if you're not on your way to Spain, you're going to be looking back on this Instagram post with envious regret. Head to our blog for our favorites.

Possibly one of the most civilized cities in the world, Geneva embodies Swiss precision. With a state-of-the-art tram system, status as the hub of international banking, and bragging rights for being the birthplace of the Internet, it's both highly functioning and prestigious. But this isn't to say it lacks charm - the Old Town is filled with cobblestone streets and narrow alleyways, and the Carouge neighborhood is filled with chic boutiques and restaurants. It's a perfect launching point for adventures throughout the Alps, but don't go rushing from the airport to the mountains - head to stories for some of our favorites in the Peace Capital.

The Local Foreigner team is distinctly not afraid of a super-long haul flight - in fact, you've definitely received an email from your advisor while they were above 30,000 feet. We might not know what day it is when we land, but you can bet we're uploading feedback on every property we visit anyway, no matter how upside down we are on the time zone. Today in our weekly Friday Feedback, we're racking up the miles with raves for properties in Siem Reap, Mozambique, and Oman, so set your silk eye mask aside and join us in stories.

With their postcard-perfect views and white washed architecture, Mykonos and Santorini have been mainstays of summer in Europe for generations. But vacationing in the Greek Isles doesn’t need to be defined by crowds clamoring for a sunset photo – some of our favorite islands in the Cyclades are quieter, smaller, and a scooch less traveled, while still offering the charm,
endless views, and super-fresh food on offer in the more well-known islands. A few of our very favorites are in stories.

No, this isn't Sri Lanka, or Thailand, or Indonesia - it's the Dominican Republic. If you're feeling like your eyes have betrayed you, you clearly haven't been to Amanera yet. Located on the DR's wild northern coast, where the Rio San Juan meets the Atlantic, Amanera is housed within the Playa Grande Resort, an untouched jungle paradise known for top notch golf and - you guessed it - a really big beach. In typical Aman fashion, the resort offers activities like medicinal walks and mangrove kayak tours, but if you ask us, the best spot in the house is on the glorious golden sand, morir soñado in-hand.

Ten different people will have ten different opinions on what makes the ultimate travel experience, but whether you like a baroque interior or a minimalist loft, a white tablecloth institution or a hole-in-the-wall joint, service is what makes the experience. In today's Friday Feedback stories, we're sending love to some favorite spots where the people (and one very lucky dachshund) are the highlight.

Those who’ve summered in the South of France know the sublime pleasure of its stereo: the constant swish-swish of the Cypress trees, the steady hum of the cicadas, the crunch of rocky shorelines beneath leather sandals. Whether you base yourself in the picture-perfect seaside enclave of Antibes or on the rocky cliffs of Eze, the Côte d'Azur is dotted with towns so picturesque you’d think they were plucked from the pages of a storybook. In this month's Postcard, we didn't even make it to St Tropez - instead, we've focused on the 25 glittering miles between Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and Cannes (where the world's most glamourous film festival kicks off next week). Head to the link in our bio for more.
