My Story
I am a full time healthcare professional with a love of travel, a high dose of wanderlust and an appreciation for the solo traveler.
My Travel Style
I love finding properties where you will find everything you need without venturing off-site. The perfect staycation resort on a sandy beach. A countryside inn with fireplaces perfect for curling up with a book in charming common areas. I also love finding properties in bustling cities that are the perfect, luxe launch pad to explore all the destination has to offer.

From the very beginning, working with Shrinal was extremely easy. She went above and beyond to help me plan the most perfect babymoon in Mallorca. She was so patient as I often sent her different hotel ideas I found online, and was always taking the time to look into each one and share her honest, thoughtful recommendations.
She not only helped me find and book amazing hotels but also arranged our rental car and even connected me with a wonderful local photographer to capture photos for a maternity shoot. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the island were truly impressive — she provided so many valuable tips that made our experience smooth and unforgettable.
What really stood out was how much she cared about the trip. She checked in with us several times, especially when we ran into airline/luggage issues (completely unrelated to her bookings), and made sure we were doing okay. She was always available whenever I reached out, which gave me so much peace of mind.
I can’t recommend her highly enough — she’s professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about making her clients’ trips unforgettable. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile, look no further!

Shrinal was wonderful to work with. She was able to book our trip with some added perks, like free early check-in, complimentary breakfast each morning, and a resort credit. She was very communicative with us in the days leading up to the trip and worked hard to ensure a smooth check-in experience. I highly recommend Shrinal and plan to use her again to help us plan future vacations.
