PP is 7 🎉

7 years of hotel beds, insane pools, the best beach sunsets, many hours in the sky, hotel inspections, trade shows and so much more. BUT best of all, 7 years of being part of numerous travel plans for the best clients there could be. I am incredibly grateful to everyone who has, and continues to, book with us, support us and cheer us on 🌎

My love for this industry and job only gets bigger, and more so for the ladies I get to work beside… I am so thankful to Han & Lou for deciding to come along for the journey with Paper Plane Travel too 🫶🏻

Take me to the Edge of Wildness 💭

Dreaming of returning to this special place today. One of my favourite hotels in Asia and 100% worth a visit if you’re planning on travelling to Bali and want to tag somewhere less-known to your itinerary 🇮🇩

I’m keeping everything crossed that we can start sending clients to Asia again soon 🤞🏻

This picture was taken from the Four Seasons Madrid rooftop last week which is a not-to-miss spot on any visit, whether staying in the hotel or not 👌🏼

To those who are enjoying a sea view like this today, happy Monday! 🌊(Advice: don’t come home!! 😂)

I’m counting down the days until being on holiday next month but in the meantime, planning Italian road trips for honeymooners is proving a great start to the week 🇮🇹♥️

Where would you rather be? ✈️

The ultimate bucket list wilderness “hotel” 🇨🇦

I’m unbelievably excited for clients heading here next month to spend a few nights in Clayoquot’s luxury waterfront tents, where their days will include whale watching, bear spotting, kayaking, hiking, horse riding, stand up paddleboarding and a few hours in the spa after all the adventure 🐻🐳

If you’re looking to get away last minute, or you’re planning your future travels, please get in touch ♥️

I ♥️ booking trips to the Maldives again (we are all willing it off that red list!). Super excited for a couple heading to for a well deserved trip at the start of next year 🌊

Head over to to see where else people are booking for the end of 2021 and into 2022 🐚

Totally fallen for in the Alentejo wine region of Portugal 🇵🇹🍷

With a range of room types in different houses to choose from, it was great to fully understand the estate - and the size of it! With nearly 500 hectares, there is so much to do; horse riding, quad biking, mountain biking, walking trails, archery, bread making and the list goes on...

The Timeless Suites are perfect for couples, whilst the House of Terracotta makes for the ideal family stay. I could have easily spent 5 nights here and it slots perfectly into many Portuguese itineraries 💫

Portugal it is 🇵🇹

Granted, it would have been nice to see some more countries added to the green list but it feels GOOD to get clients away to some of my fave Portuguese hotels ♥️

There is still availability for May/June at some wonderful spots so please drop me a message if you’re looking to escape ✈️

A visit to ☀️

It was great to see University Arms in Cambridge yesterday to tour the hotel and get a feel for the city. My only wish is to have stayed longer (craving a hotel stay now, bring on 17th May!).

The hotel is ideally located for exploring Cambridge and there are a range of room types to suit solo guests, couples, friends or families. Prices in June/July start from £220 per night in the week or £250 per night over the weekend and if you’re looking for something extra special, I really recommend the Terrace Suite or Hawking Suite 💫

Please get in touch if you’re looking to get away to this collegiate city for a few nights of pottering & punting ♥️ @ Cambridge

Happy Friday 💫

Here’s to 4 🎉

I might not be at an underwater restaurant in the Maldives today (as in this picture) but I’m still absolutely celebrating. Celebrating what the last year has brought and looking forward with excitement of what’s to come for Paper Plane 🙌🏼

My biggest thanks, more than ever before, is to YOU - supporters, followers, clients, cheerleaders. I adore what I do and I can’t wait to help get more of you away on city breaks, special occasions, family adventures, trips with friends, and my goodness I think they’ll be more special than ever after the last year. So, thank you a million times over 🤍

Cheers🥂

An exciting opening in Croatia 🇭🇷

Maslina Resort is located in Stari Grad on the island of Hvar. Wellbeing is at the core of the resort with emphasis on living the simplicity of Mediterranean life whilst here. Naturally, the restaurant is Mediterranean-inspired and other facilities include a bar, organic beach garden, A•Bay beach bar, Pharomatiq spa, wine & culture club and dedicated kids’ playroom therefore families, couples, groups (they have some gorgeous villas) and solo travellers are welcome at Maslina 🌟

How do you get there? Fly into Split or Dubrovnik and then take the ferry to Stari Grad Port which is just a short walk from Maslina. The hotel team will meet you at the port and whisk you and your luggage off to the resort 👌🏼

I can see Maslina fitting perfectly into Croatian island-hopping itineraries or somewhere to base yourself for a week to make the most of the slow life and get involved in the many activities on offer; kayaking, diving, rafting, sailing, snorkeling, paddleboarding, windsurfing, kitesurfing and hiking.

Prices start from EUR400 per night for this summer. If you're looking for a European escape, please get in touch, I'd love to help you get away ♥️

When planning trips for clients, I sometimes can’t help but transport myself there virtually too! A trip back to Mexico is on my list for this year...the itinerary would start with a few nights in Mexico City before heading to the West Coast where is located 🇲🇽

Cuixmala is a luxury eco-resort spanning 5km of Pacific coastline. With three private beaches, 30,000 acres of nature reserve, 5,000 acres of bio-dynamic farm, 3 restaurants, 26 horses, many wild zebras, 270 species of birds PLUS 150 ongoing research projects happening, there is quite literally something for everyone. The 40 rooms come in different shapes & sizes, all with a beautiful style. And if that wasn’t enough, they have a sister property in the mountains of Colima which ties in the perfect three-stop trip 👌🏼

No matter where is on your bucket list for this year, please get in touch, I’d love to help you make it happen ♥️

Last week was spent plotting and planning for many families, mostly to the UK & Europe for summer and some long haul destinations for later in the year.

Here are some of the hotels that families will be escaping to - everything can be booked on a no/low deposit and refundable basis so we can adapt to whatever news 12th April brings us!

If you're planning to get away this summer, I'd love to hear from you and talk through your requirements.

Googly-eyed for Giglio Island 👀

La Guardia, a boutique hotel overlooking the harbour on Giglio Island (part of the Tuscan Archipelago). Their beach access rooms are what dreams are made of...roll out of bed and into the sea before returning for a yoga class and breakfast. The food is, naturally, wholesome Mediterranean cuisine using locally grown ingredients and supporting to community of the island where possible.

Prices start this summer from £150 per night. Round up your partner or bestie and get in touch with exact dates! 🤍

P.S. the colour of that water on the last photo 😍

Hotel Esencia, Mexico 🇲🇽

My favourite hotel along the Riviera Maya. Originally built as the private home of an Italian duchess, Hotel Esencia is a place where the traditions of the past come together with a sense of how we live today.

🌮 miles of beach
🌮 excellent food options and cracking cocktails
🌮 30 mins from Tulum

Other hotels I also love along this stretch:

D Maris Bay, Turkey 🇹🇷

With 5 beaches, you could spend more than a week at the beach here...

🌊 Bay Beach - the hotel's main beach where there is ample space for families to unwind and play under the sun. Also where you'll find their ice cream parlour, bakery, café Maris Kitchen and
🌊 La Guérite Beach - at the edge of the cove where sits (my favourite!)
🌊 Manos Beach - for the Greek food lovers, reserve a table at Manos for a sunset meal of delicacies after a day sunbathing at its beach
🌊 Maris Beach - offering private bungalows
🌊 Silence Beach - unplug from life, put away your phone and enjoy peace & quiet as you nap under a beach cabana or relax in the suspended day bed set over the water on the beach’s tiny pier

And getting between the beaches? Easy, with the hotel's boat shuttle.
