Your Four Seasons travel advisor

Four Seasons is the hotel brand closest to my heart. I married my husband Kenny at the Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea, we went back for our babymoon, and we've returned again and again since. Wherever we are in the world, we seek out Four Seasons (especially now that we have kids in tow - you can always trust an FS to take care of the family!) Today, I'm a Four Seasons Preferred Partner travel advisor, who specializes in getting you the BEST perks on your hotel stays (and the best rates, of course!). When you book a Four Seasons through me, you get daily breakfast, a hotel credit and a room upgrade when one is available, at the hotel's best rate, with no fee to book. I also have amazing personal relationships with the hotels which means you'll get to the front of the upgrade list, if one is available, and they'll always pull out all the stops to impress my clients!

Four Seasons doesn't have a points program, so booking through a Four Seasons travel advisor in the Preferred Partner program is how you get VIP perks at a Four Seasons. Here's how it works, how to find the best Four Seasons travel advisor for your trip, and the Four Seasons I know best.

Or book it yourself on my private portal (password: JETSETTERS).

The program

What Is the Four Seasons Preferred Partner Program?

Four Seasons Preferred Partner is an invitation-only program for a select group of top luxury travel agencies. SmartFlyer is one of them, so as a SmartFlyer advisor I can book Preferred Partner rates with VIP perks at Four Seasons hotels and resorts around the world.

Your perks are tied to the Preferred Partner rate, so I always compare it against the hotel's other rates for your dates and book whichever gives you the best value. You still pay the hotel directly. Your reservation just goes in with my name on it, so I'm the one following up on your room, your upgrade and your requests before you arrive.

Your perks

What Perks Do You Get When You Book Four Seasons With Me?

Book your Four Seasons with me for the BEST VIP Perks (at no cost to you) and the best rates. If you'd like help with the rest of your trip too, I offer full itinerary planning.

How to Book Four Seasons with Perks

Booking your hotel with free Jetset perks

  • Daily full breakfast for two people per bedroom, in a hotel restaurant or through in-room dining

Check Rates + VIP Perks

Full Trip Itinerary Planning

Optional, for the rest of your trip

If you'd like help beyond the hotel booking, things like the activities, restaurant recommendations, transportation, vetted tours and activities, and building out a full trip plan, I offer full itinerary planning!

  • Destination guidance and the right room for you
  • Flights routed and booked through my Air team
  • White-glove transportation coordination and booking
  • Activities vetted by me (and often a local team of experts), like private tours, boat days and excursions
  • Restaurant recommendations and dinner reservations
  • A detailed day-by-day itinerary, drafted within 2 weeks of signing on

Full itinerary planning is available for a planning fee. Inquire for details.

Plan My Full Itinerary

A few hotels go even further. At Four Seasons Bora Bora, the credit is $200 per stay even in a standard room. And a tip for Disney families: at Four Seasons Orlando, the daily breakfast perk excludes the character breakfast, so plan that one separately. When I send you rates, I confirm the exact perks for your hotel.

Does It Cost More to Book Four Seasons With a Travel Advisor?

No! There is no fee and no markup to book hotels with me, ever. You pay the hotel directly with your own credit card, so you keep your card points, and you get the perks on top.

The process

How Booking Four Seasons With Me Works

01

Tell me where and when.

Send me the hotel (or just the destination, if you're still deciding), your dates and who's traveling.

02

I send you rates with your perks.

I compare the rates and offers available for your dates and show you exactly which perks come with each one. Prefer to look on your own? Everything is live on my portal too (password: JETSETTERS).

03

You say yes and I book it.

I send you a secure card authorization, lock in your room, and you pay the hotel directly.

04

I take care of the hotel before you arrive.

I'm your direct line to the hotel team. I share your preferences, celebrations, connecting room requests and arrival time, so everything is set up before you land.

What to look for

How to Find the Best Four Seasons Travel Advisor

This is the question I get asked most, so here's what I'd look for (and what I hold myself to).

First, make sure your advisor is actually in the Preferred Partner program. It's the only way these perks get added to your stay. Second, ask whether they've stayed at the hotel. I've stayed at Four Seasons Maui, Bora Bora, Hualalai, Palm Beach and Silicon Valley, and I know the room categories well enough to steer you away from the wrong one. At Four Seasons Maui, for example, I skip the Mountainside rooms and start my clients at Garden View.

Third, pick someone who answers you quickly and jumps in when something goes sideways mid-trip. A great advisor is your person on the ground before you even land.

Where I've stayed

The Four Seasons I Know Best

Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea

Where we got married

This is where we got married, so every visit carries a little extra nostalgia. Beyond that, it's one of the most consistently exceptional resorts in the world. The service, the setting, the family-friendliness and the food add up to a masterclass in hospitality. Start with my 10 tips for staying at the Four Seasons Maui, then see how it stacks up in Grand Wailea vs. Four Seasons Maui and my favorite luxury resorts in Maui.

Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora

Book the Mount Otemanu view

I've been to Four Seasons Bora Bora multiple times and have planned many clients' honeymoons there. My biggest tip: book the Mount Otemanu view bungalow to start, so your upgrade lands you somewhere even better. More in my 10 things to know before staying at the Four Seasons Bora Bora.

Four Seasons Resort Hualalai

Seven pools

Hualalai is only 15 minutes from the Kona airport (a huge win with kids) and has SEVEN pools, including an adults-only pool facing the ocean. Here's everything you need to know about staying at Four Seasons Hualalai.

Four Seasons Bali and Mexico

Four Seasons Bali

Where I lived for three years

I lived in Bali for three years and still go back every year, so I have strong opinions here! See my take in Four Seasons vs. Capella vs. Mandapa.

Four Seasons in Mexico

Punta Mita for families

Four Seasons Punta Mita is fabulous and on par with Rosewood Mayakoba. They're just two different sides of Mexico. For families with little ones, I usually point people to Punta Mita over Tamarindo, which can feel too quiet with kids.

All of them.

Every Four Seasons hotel and resort in the world takes part in the Preferred Partner program. These are the ones my clients ask me about most.

Why Book Four Seasons With Me?

I've been a luxury travel blogger for 13 years, and I'm a mom of two who has taken over 150 flights with my toddlers in tow. Four Seasons is where we celebrate our biggest moments as a family, and I bring that same care to every client stay I book, whether it's a honeymoon, a family spring break or a milestone birthday.

The difference between a good trip and a great one is how it feels. I love making the logistics seamless behind the scenes, so you get to be fully present with your loved ones and actually enjoy the trip you've been looking forward to. Booking through SmartFlyer also means VIP perks at hundreds of other luxury hotels, including Rosewood, Belmond and One&Only.
