My Story
A globally minded connoisseur of luxury and adventure, I bring insider expertise to every trip. Born and raised in California, I’ve spent the last two decades living in Europe and have explored over 80 countries along the way.
Travel Style
For me, travel is about discovering the essence of a destination—its culture, people, cuisine, and hidden gems. With over 80 countries explored and 20 years living in Europe, I’ve cultivated a talent for designing bespoke itineraries that seamlessly blend luxury with authenticity. Whether visiting iconic landmarks or uncovering off-the-beaten-path treasures, I focus on properties and experiences that tell a meaningful story and create unforgettable memories.

Marisa has completely transformed the way our company approaches travel. She takes the time to understand each member of our staff and delivers truly bespoke options that balance comfort, efficiency, and value. No two itineraries are ever treated the same, and that personal attention shows in every detail. Marisa is proactive, incredibly responsive, and always one step ahead—anticipating needs and solving challenges before they arise.

Marisa made the perfect ending to my 10-day Vietnam trip unforgettable! Zannier was incredible, and thanks to her, I enjoyed a massive upgrade to a stunning pool villa. Her expertise and connections truly elevated the experience.

Marisa once again delivered a flawless, 10/10 experience. I wanted a stay that balanced comfort and style within the vibrant energy of Saigon, and she curated the perfect blend of luxury and authenticity. My hotel was an oasis of elegance, yet I never felt removed from the city’s incredible local culture—thanks to her expert recommendations for outstanding eateries and bars. She even suggested a local spa where I had the best manicure of my life—my nails were treated like true works of art! What truly sets Marisa apart are the thoughtful, personal touches. She informed the hotel that I was celebrating my 40th birthday, and I was met with beautiful surprises, including a delicious cake, wine, and an exclusive spa offer. She also made navigating my next destination effortless, ensuring everything was seamless and stress-free—all while securing an incredible value. Marisa’s expertise, attention to detail, and genuine care make every trip unforgettable!

Marisa suggested Amanpulo for the final leg of an Asian Itinerary and wow! This is one of the top 3 hotels I have ever stayed in. She really knows exactly where to send her clients and gets us the best rooms!
