Are you looking to elevate your next trip with personalized recommendations from someone who truly knows your destination?
Do you want to save time, reduce travel stress, and ensure you get the best value for your money?
By using a luxury travel advisor, you can rest assured that you’ll stay at the finest hotels within your budget and enjoy complimentary benefits, VIP status, and exclusive discounts.
Here are three compelling reasons to consider booking your next trip with a luxury travel advisor.
Reason 1: A luxury travel advisor will help personalize your planning and booking experience and get you access to insider intel, deals and hidden gems
A seasoned luxury travel advisor can save you significant amount of time and money. With deep, personal experience of various travel destinations and hotels, we ensure you always make the best choice. We have stayed at some of the world’s finest hotels and have strong opinions on the best options within different budgets in every destination. Even if one of our luxury travel advisors or clients hasn’t visited your desired location, we tap into our extensive network to provide you with inside intel, ensuring you always make a great decision no matter where you wish to travel.
We know which hotels offer the best deals, which destinations are trending, and where the hidden gems are located.
The truth is, finding the right hotel requires a lot of time and energy. A luxury travel advisor takes that burden off your shoulders. We begin our planning process with you, tailoring recommendations based on your preferences, what’s most important to you during your stays, and your budget. This ensures every stay is perfect. We can narrow down hundreds of hotel options to the best ones for you. Over time, as we work together on multiple trips, we get to know you and your preferences and every trip becomes better than the previous one – like a well-oiled machine.
One of our most appreciated service offerings is that we’re available 24/7 via WhatsApp and text messaging. No more waiting for long email responses or dealing with office hours—you’ll be in direct contact with one of our luxury travel advisors whenever you need us. We’re just a ping away.
If you value your time and prefer to have a single point of contact for all your luxury travel needs – we’re a perfect fit for you.
Reason 2: A luxury travel advisor will get you unique benefits worth hundreds of dollars and discounts not available to the general public
We’re proud members of virtually all of the world’s best hotel luxury travel programmes, like Four Seasons Preferred Partner, Virtuoso, Hilton Impresario, Marriott STARS/Luminous, Hyatt Privé, Belmond Bellini Club, and more. All of these luxury travel programmes invite select luxury travel advisors like us to offer their clients with access to unique, complimentary benefits and discounts not available to the general public. This means that we can offer unique benefits and discounts at virtually every luxury hotel in the world.
We leverage our strong hotel relationships to get you the very best benefits and treatment irrespective of where you go. Love boutique hotels? We’ve got you covered through our membership in Virtuoso with a selection of over 1700 hotels, a large part of which are boutique hotels. Are you a miles & points junkie and prefer to stay with one of the major chains? We’ve got you covered there as well through our memberships in programs like Marriott STARS, Hyatt Privé and Hilton Impresario.
The perks we offer vary based on what hotel you end up booking, but in general include benefits like:
- Free breakfast
- Hotel credits from $100 up to $1000 USD
- Complimentary room upgrades
- Welcome gifts
- Early check-in and late check-out
Although the above is generally what’s offered – hotels often go beyond this with larger credits, confirmed upgrades, and more.
Beyond this, we also have access to unique discounts that are not available to the general public. In most of our destinations worldwide, we have a few of our membership hotels offering free night offers, such as third/fourth/fifth night free which in addition to the perks above can provide you with substantial savings.
A few examples of such discounts are listed below:
- Through Hilton Impresario, we have 74 hotels that offer third, fourth or fifth night offers in addition to perks like breakfast, $100 credit, upgrade, early checkin and late checkout, and double Hilton Honors points
- At the iconic Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris, you currently get third night free and a guaranteed upgrade to the next room category, in addition to breakfast, $100 credit and more.
- One of Bali’s most iconic hotels, Mandapa (A Ritz-Carlton Reserve) offers third night free in villas and complimentary half-board
Reason 3: In the time of large booking sites and AI, it’s worth remembering that hotels are run by people – a luxury travel advisor will get you VIP status on every stay through established relationships
Large hotel booking sites, like Booking.com, offer a lot of convenience but they are a mass-market product, and the honest truth is that hotels don’t love them. There are many reasons for this, but a key one is that they charge substantial fees and take over a large part of the customer ownership that the hotels prefer to own themselves.
We’re living in a renaissance of AI and automation, many talk about this point in time being an inflection point, which we recognize here at Lyxresan Travels as well. But it’s worth pointing out that the hospitality industry is still traditional and ultimately is built on people and relationships.
As luxury travel advisors, we have spent years cultivating key relationships in the industry and this helps us provide you with deeply personalized service and VIP status at the hotels you book through us. We work directly with senior management at all our hotels to make sure they do go the extra mile for you and that all your preferences are noted and taken care of. All our bookings receive a VIP remark meaning hotel staff do whatever in their power to do that little extra for you – like securing an extra nice upgrade. Ultimately, we make sure every single stay – from a special anniversary stay, to just your annual vacation – is always magical for you.
Bonus reason: 95% of our customers return within a year
We’re extremely proud that 95% of our customers choose to return within a year of making their first booking with us. We think this is a testament to all the reasons mentioned in this article. We’d love to work with you on your next trip to show what we’re capable of and how we can help you.
