Why You Choose Us
Advice Without Agenda
Perks&Rec is based on a membership model, and that's what allows us to work for you, not the hotel. We're not dependent on commission, so every recommendation is based on what's right for your trip.
Better Rates + Real Perks
Access preferred travel advisor rates, often 10 to 20% less than what you’d find online, plus complimentary perks like breakfast, room upgrades, and hotel credits averaging $400 per stay.
A Real Person, Not an AI Bot
You work with someone who understands how you travel and handles the details with you, not a chatbot, not an algorithm, and not a generic recommendation engine.
Time Back + Faster Decisions
The average traveler spends 10+ hours researching a single trip. We take that off your plate and deliver clear, curated recommendations, often within 48 hours.
Wrap-around Travel Services
We handle bookings, coordination, and follow-through so everything runs through one place, before, during, and after your trip, without you managing multiple vendors or details.
Trips We Handle
Travel can mean a lot of different things, and we support a wide range, from simple stays to more complex, multi-layered trips, with the same level of coordination and attention to detail throughout.
-
Hotels, resorts, all-inclusive properties, vacation rentals, villas, and extended stays.
-
Ocean cruises, expedition cruises, river cruises, and private yacht or boat charters.
-
Multi-city itineraries, long-haul travel, and trips that require coordination across multiple destinations, including flights, rail journeys, and transfers that need to align properly.
-
Safaris, private guided trips, wellness retreats, cultural travel, scenic rail journeys, and other experience-driven itineraries
-
Trips built around weddings, honeymoons, celebrations, major events, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
-
Trips that don’t fit into a standard format, where sourcing, coordination, and structure matter more than the destination itself, including more complex logistics or non-traditional travel like private air or yacht charters.
What We Handle
Destination + Hotel Sourcing
We narrow destinations and hotels quickly based on your budget, preferences, and how you travel so you’re not sorting through endless options.
Transportation + Trip Routing
We map out flights, transfers, and routing so your trip actually flows and you’re not dealing with avoidable gaps or timing issues.
Activities + Trip Planning
We guide what to do, recommend tours and experiences, and help structure your time so your trip is well paced and thought through without overplanning or leaving key moments to chance.
Ongoing Support + Issue Resolution
We stay involved before, during, and after your trip, helping with confirmations, changes, and any follow-up issues like billing discrepancies or property coordination so you’re not left dealing with problems on your own.
Trip Bookings + Rebookings
We secure exclusive rates and apply perks like breakfast, upgrades, and credits when available, while continuing to monitor your booking so if a refundable rate drops or a better option becomes available, we can adjust it accordingly.

We handle the trip.
We handle bookings, coordination, and logistics so everything is set up properly before you go, and we stay involved throughout your trip and after you return to manage confirmations, changes, and any follow-up like billing issues or coordination with the property.
-
Most trips are straightforward, but some require more coordination and time, and when that’s the case, we step in to handle the work behind the scenes, whether that’s coordinating more involved logistics or sourcing more complex travel needs beyond standard support, with this work typically priced at $100 per planned day and your $200 annual credit applied first, so many trips are fully or mostly covered each year.
Travel Access is for travelers who want someone to handle the hard part. We do the work. You just make the decision. It means we work for you, not our partners. No commission pressure, no preferred vendor lists. Just the right choice for your trip. And, it’s designed to pay for itself in the first 1 to 2 trips through monitoring, perks and time savings.
