Is Grand Cayman Worth It? What I Tell My Clients
Beverly Schulte, certified Cayman destination specialist, on Grand Cayman dining, the dive scene, valet diving, and The Reef Resort. The real picture.
The trip you've been putting off, planned by someone who does this every day.
I'm Beverly Schulte, a luxury travel advisor in Sioux Falls working with clients nationwide. I build custom itineraries for honeymoons, milestone trips, and the places you keep saying you'll get to.
You don't need more options. You need the right one.
You can spend forty hours on booking sites and still not know if the room you picked faces the parking lot. I've vetted the properties, in person or through advisors I trust, I know which transfer companies show up on time, and I know which "beachfront" listings mean a ten-minute walk. That's the difference between a trip that looks good online and one that's good when you're standing in it.
I hold 65 supplier and destination certifications, including CTA and CLIA, and I'm an ASTA member. More useful than the list is what it means for you. When I recommend a resort in St. Lucia or a river ship in Bordeaux, it's because I've checked it, not because it came up first in a search.
If you'd rather see the work than read about it, the trips I've planned and the reviews clients left are both here.
Three steps. No surprises.
1
We talk first.
A short call where I ask about the occasion, who's going, what you can't stand, and what you've loved before. You'll know by the end whether I'm the right fit.
2
I build it.
Flights, rooms, transfers, dinner reservations, the guide who actually knows the Amalfi coast roads. You get one document with everything in it.
3
I stay on it.
My direct number goes with you. If a flight cancels at 2 a.m. or the villa isn't what was promised, you call me and I fix it. That's the part you're paying for.
Come with me
A few times a year I plan a small group trip and travel on it. Alaska and the Christmas Markets are next, with Costa Rica and Bali after that. Pricing goes to the interest list first, the day the suppliers confirm it.
Certified by Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, AmaWaterways, Sandals, Celebrity Cruises, Royal Caribbean, and Holland America. ASTA member. CTA and CLIA certified.

What a Travel Advisor Actually Does
What an independent luxury travel advisor actually does, from Beverly Schulte, CTA, of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. First call to homecoming.
I also write The Luxury Travel Brief on LinkedIn, one idea at a time, shorter and faster than the journal.

Start with a conversation.
One call. You bring the occasion and the dates you're hoping for. I'll tell you plainly whether I'm the right person for it.
