20/10/2024

Landing back at a rainy Gatwick yesterday was a rude awakening after such a special week with LUX hotels, swapping my usual Mon- Fri to experience theirs.

We headed straight to our first hotel, Salt of Palmar. This adult only boutique hotel on the East Coast.They gave us a warm welcome to Mauritius as we sampled their signature rejuvenating salt foot scrub in the spa which was very much needed after a 12-hour flight. Followed by a stop at the
cool rooftop bar for some rum tasting.
A quick boat transfer took us to LUX Belle Mare. Recently renovated it has a modern colonial feel and an impressive infinity pool. The rooms have a very calming luxurious feel to them with huge beds, and even your own yoga mat.

In the morning we were treated to a private yoga session in the lush gardens where our excellent Yogi took one look at our group and realised he had his work cut out
He was very firm and gave us all a lesson on how to live holistically.On our second day we headed to the south-east of the Island where we visited Tamassa and LUX le Morne.

Tamassa is a great value 4-star family hotel with a huge beach. It has plenty of activities to keep everyone occupied especially children.

LUX Le Morne has the most striking location, on a beautiful beach with the iconic le Morne mountain as its backdrop The hotel is so peaceful all the guests seem to slow down once they arrive. Wander down the beach and you will find Vik’s Shack, a casual fisherman’s shack. He spends his days diving for sea urchins which he cooks for fresh for you whilst you sit back and sample the rum.

We travelled north-east to LUX Grand Gaube. This stunning hotel has a great mix of everything, and I immediately envisaged having my own family holiday there. We were treated to the Hug Me Honey experience, learning about beekeeping at the hives, sipping honey-infused cocktails and a honey pairing lunch in a garden setting.

Our final two nights were spent on the north-west coast at LUX Grand Baie. Designed by Kelly Hoppen, the rooms are ultra-modern with neutral calming tones. The emphasis is on wellness with an amazing gym that includes a spin studio and even a rooftop gym where the PTs will put you through your paces.The wellness continues into the three-floor LUXME spa where I experienced my first sound bath, a wonderful meditative experience giving you a sense of calm. The restaurants are a foodies paradise, LUX icons Beach Rouge, Maison LUX (those cakes) Bisou the funky rooftop dining experience is an Instagramable dream. The food throughout was exceptional and plentiful, pack loose clothing!

If you would like to know more about these fantastic hotels and plan your own trip get in touch.

I've swapped my regular Monday-Friday this week for a last-minute flying visit to Mauritius.

It’s been sixteen years since my last visit so I jumped at the chance! Especially as I am being hosted by the spectacular LUX hotels. I am visiting all their properties on the island which I’ll talk more about later.

Mauritius is 11 and half hours from the UK direct and overnight in both directions, the flight feels quicker because of this.
Is only a three-hour time difference.
The language is mainly English, French, and Creole.
It has the most stunning coastline.
The food as you can see is delicious!

Did you know that from next year you will need an ETIAS to travel to ETIAS member countries which is pretty much most of Europe. T

This means that UK and citizens of many other non-EU countries will have to pay a fee of €7 and fill out an online form before they will be allowed into the EU’s Schengen area.

Whether you’re planning a trip to Europe for business, leisure, or transit, it’s crucial to be aware of the ETIAS requirements to ensure a smooth and hassle-free travel experience.

ETIAS authorization is required for all ages and you must have a valid biometric passport that is less than 10 years old and should not expire in less than three months.

When was the last time you did something for the first time?

My clients wanted a memorable family adventure that involved seeing wildlife.
Sri Lanka offers a huge variety of sights and is pretty much a year round destination, so it's great for school holidays!
They toured around with their own private driver/guide and saw wonderful wildlife, stunning scenery and ancient sites many of which are UNESCO listed.

If you'd like to experience all Sri Lanka has to offer get in touch.

eady to try something new this year? 🌍✨ Our latest blog features destination dupes that offer all the charm without the crowds. Whether you're dreaming of tranquil beaches or vibrant cityscapes, with my destination knowledge and expertise I will curate the perfect trip for you. Let me handle all the details so you can explore the world with confidence.

Montenegro instead of Croatia☀️
Montenegro is an often-overlooked gem that offers the same stunning Adriatic coastline as Croatia but with a calm and relaxed atmosphere.

Slovenia instead of Switzerland⛰️
If you dream of alpine landscapes and pristine lakes, Slovenia is the perfect alternative to Switzerland. Slovenia's natural beauty is truly awe-inspiring.

Chicago instead of New York City🏙️
While New York City is often seen as the ultimate urban destination, Chicago offers a similar big-city experience with its own unique charm.

Seville instead of Madrid 🍋
For those craving the famed culture and warmth of Spain, Seville is a captivating alternative to Madrid.

Let's plan your next adventure together! Reach out today to uncover new destinations and tailored travel experiences. ✈️

All about me...

My enthusiasm for all things travel has given me a very happy and successful 27-year career, working for leading travel companies and arranging bespoke itineraries that span the globe.

My curiosity for travel has been there from a young age and I can remember as a child looking at the airport departure boards and thinking where can we go next? The excitement of visiting a new destination has never diminished.

I’ve been lucky enough to travel to over 50 countries across six continents. From horseback riding in Argentina, climbing Mount Kinabalu in Borneo, to hot air ballooning across the Serengeti. If you have that trip of a lifetime planned it’s likely that I’ve visited it!

Each holiday I arrange is unique and tailored to your specific requirements. I really care about your holiday experience and find it’s the fine details that make a good holiday, a great one, creating the best memories.
