How it Works

We add extra benefits like daily breakfast for two, room upgrades, $100 hotel credits, and more to reservations we make for readers at thousands of luxury hotels worldwide.

This is because we have access to exclusive travel agent VIP programs like Virtuoso, Four Seasons Preferred Partner, The Ritz-Carlton STARS, Hyatt Prive, and many others.

Book Now

Thousands of Virtuoso hotels worldwide can be booked with extra benefits now through my Virtuoso site at no additional cost to you. Use the number of adults traveling to get the correct rate. We’re notified when you book and will add on your kids later.
