My Story
Hi, I’m Lucia! I’m a physician associate, devoted foodie, curious explorer, proud dog mom, and lifelong Disney lover with a heart for adventure. Travel has always been my favorite way to collect stories—whether I’m tasting my way through a new city, uncovering hidden gems, or adding a little Disney magic to the journey. I love crafting luxury-style trips on any budget, blending incredible food, unique destinations, and experiences that fit every season of life.
Travel Style
My travel style is all about balance—blending adventure, relaxation, and just the right touch of magic to match every season of life. You’ll find me wandering vibrant cities like Paris, swimming off the coast of Puglia, soaking up the sun in Mexico, or making unforgettable Disney memories. I love uncovering hidden gems as much as I enjoy the comfort of a luxurious all-inclusive escape, because I believe travel should feel both authentic and accessible. A lifelong Disney fan, I’m passionate about creating vacations filled with wonder, and as a self-proclaimed foodie, I never plan a trip without unforgettable meals—whether it’s a cozy local spot or a Michelin-starred splurge. My specialty is designing luxury travel for every budget, because incredible experiences should always be within reach.

Lucia planned our entire Rome trip, and she truly made it the most exceptional experience from start to finish. She created the most incredible agenda for us, complete with thoughtful tips on where to eat, drink, and explore—from rooftop bars and restaurants to coffee shops, wine bars, and everything else we could have wanted to see or do. She absolutely nailed every detail, and every place we visited was over the top amazing.
What made it even more special was how much time she took to tailor the trip to our needs and vibe. It felt so personal and perfectly curated for us. She also included the sweetest welcome note, along with complimentary wine, fruit, and macarons waiting for us upon arrival at our hotel, which was such a thoughtful touch.
Lucia also booked our tours for us, and they were simply the best. She even recommended exactly what to do afterward, which made every day flow perfectly. Without her, we would not have had the unforgettable experience in Rome that we did.
She was amazing in every way, and everything was perfect. Thank you so much, Lucia—you are truly the best!

Working with Lucia was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She took care of every detail, making the entire process completely stress-free. She booked us the most incredible suite for our babymoon at Wentworth by the Sea, and everything exceeded our expectations. When we decided we wanted to extend our stay by an extra night, our original room wasn’t available but Lucia somehow found us an even better suite at the last minute so we could stay longer. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Lucia is kind, responsive, professional, and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. We highly recommend working with her and will absolutely use her again for future trips! 10/10.

Working with Lucia was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and thoughtful throughout the entire planning process. From our first conversation, it was clear that she genuinely cared about creating a trip that would be perfect for us, and she exceeded every expectation.
Lucia took the time to understand what we were looking for and provided recommendations that ended up being some of the highlights of our journey. Every detail was handled seamlessly, which allowed us to focus on enjoying the experience rather than worrying about logistics. Whenever we had questions, she responded quickly and always made us feel like a priority.
This trip turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences of our lives, and Lucia played a huge role in making that happen. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail are exceptional. We are so grateful for all of her help and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone planning a special trip. We look forward to working with her again for future adventures.

Let’s start from the beginning. Our itinerary was so esthetically beautiful! Everything was covered from flights to shuttles to family pictures. It was so easy to read and got all of us even more excited to go. Upon arrival we entered our rooms with a gift basket and note from Lucia. Throughout the week there were no surprises other than my mother wanting to book dolphins at the last minute and a quick email to Lucia she got us in no questions asked. we would definitely book again with Lucia. It was seamless!

We had a wonderful experience working with Lucia to plan our recent trip. From start to finish, everything was handled thoughtfully and seamlessly. She took time to understand what our family was looking for.
We had four families involved, ranging from 7 to 70. Lucia sent us our itinerary, from the day we left, including our air flights, restaurants, and transportation, so that everyone could be on the same page. That was very helpful. We truly appreciate her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone planning a trip.
