Vacation Planning: Little Things that make a Big Trip

May 15, 2025

When people think about vacation planning, they usually start with the big items: the flights, the hotel, the major sights.

But what truly makes a trip memorable?
It’s the little things—the thoughtful touches that aren’t on a checklist but make everything feel effortless. ✨

That’s where great vacation planning really shines.

Here’s what that can look like in real life:

  • A food tour that departs just steps from your hotel lobby—no stress, no extra transportation needed.
  • A hotel concierge who greets you by name and a bartender who remembers your favorite cocktail by night two. 🍸
  • A bottle of wine waiting in your room on your anniversary—because someone thought ahead.
  • The insight to choose experiences that are genuinely worthwhile—not just the ones trending on social media.
  • An unexpected room upgrade with a view, thanks to longstanding relationships. 🏨
  • Complimentary breakfast (yes, even at luxury hotels)—in a world where $40 buffets are the norm. 🥐

These kinds of moments don’t come from scrolling through travel blogs or copying a Pinterest itinerary.
They come from vacation planning that’s personal, precise, and backed by experience.

And that’s exactly what I provide.

I take the time to understand how you want to feel on vacation—not just what you want to see. I match you with the right hotels, thoughtfully time your experiences, and make sure the trip flows in a way that feels easy and intuitive.

Because a good trip checks the boxes.
A great one makes you feel like it was created just for you.

If you’ve ever come home thinking, “That was amazing—and I didn’t lift a finger,” then you already know:
