Live Luxe Travel Co. Named a Forbes Travel Guide-Endorsed Agency
At Live Luxe Travel Co., our mission has always been simple: to deliver exceptional travel experiences through personalized service, trusted relationships, and access to the world’s most remarkable hotels and destinations.
Today, we are proud to share an exciting milestone in that journey. Live Luxe Travel Co. has been officially endorsed by Forbes Travel Guide—a distinction awarded to a select group of agencies worldwide that demonstrate a commitment to excellence in luxury travel.
What This Recognition Means
For more than six decades, Forbes Travel Guide has set the global standard for luxury hospitality. As the only independent rating system for luxury hotels, restaurants, spas, and ocean cruises, its coveted Five-Star, Four-Star, and Recommended awards are earned through anonymous, in-person inspections based on hundreds of exacting service and facility standards.
This endorsement recognizes Live Luxe Travel Co.’s leadership within the industry, our dedication to elevating the role of the modern travel advisor, and our ongoing alignment with the world’s most exceptional, highly vetted hospitality partners. It also reflects the work our team has done behind the scenes to ensure we continue to deliver at the highest level for our clients.
Why This Matters for Our Clients
While accolades are meaningful, what matters most is how they translate into your experience.
Being endorsed by Forbes Travel Guide reinforces what our clients already know: when you travel with Live Luxe, you are working with a team that prioritizes quality, trust, and attention to detail at every step.
It means:
Thoughtfully curated hotel recommendations backed by a trusted global standard
Stronger alignment with properties known for exceptional service and experiences
A deeper level of expertise when guiding you through the world of luxury travel
Combined with our preferred partner relationships and personalized approach, this recognition further enhances the level of service and access we are able to provide.
A Milestone in Our Independent Era
This moment is especially meaningful as it comes during a defining chapter for our company. As of 2026, Live Luxe Travel Co. officially entered its Independent Era as a fully independent, IATAN-accredited Virtuoso member agency. This evolution represents years of growth, dedication, and a clear vision for the future of our brand. To be endorsed by Forbes Travel Guide at this stage underscores not only how far we’ve come, but where we are going.
A Shared Achievement
This recognition would not be possible without the people who have supported us along the way.
To our clients: thank you for trusting us with your most meaningful travel experiences.
To our partners: thank you for your collaboration and continued belief in what we are building.
And to our team: thank you for consistently delivering with care, precision, and passion.
