Booking with Jacob was the best decision we made for our quick getaway!

He reserved a one-night stay at Le Méridien Tampa, and thanks to his exclusive travel perks, we were upgraded to the hotel’s largest suite—without paying extra. On top of that, we walked into the room to find a bottle of wine, local chocolates, museum tickets, and dining credits waiting for us.

Jacob made the entire process effortless, and the VIP treatment we received was unreal. If you’re planning a trip, let Jacob handle it—you’ll be glad you did!

I could not be more complimentary of the service provided by Jacob. His timeliness and attention to detail is second to none. Jacob went above and beyond what I would have expected from any travel advisor. He not only provided us with the perfect accommodations but all recommendations were excellent and exactly what we were looking for on this trip. I will absolutely be using Jacob’s services and expertise for any future travel plans.
