In the crowded landscape of luxury travel, it can be challenging to distinguish between standard upscale accommodations and the true luxury experience your clientele is looking for. How can you, as a travel advisor, differentiate between what has become the standard for upscale accommodations and true luxury?
The newly created Luxe by ALG Vacations® program was built with the mentality of making planning luxury travel effortless for advisors and exceptional for clients. It starts with the Luxe Concierge Consultants, a dedicated team that can assist before and after booking with special requests and personalized experiences.
Each customer service expert that sits at this desk has been hand-selected for their efficiency and exceptional service record. This is the team that can handle those high-end touches including private tours and drivers, personalized amenities, and dining reservations. They know how to exhaust every option on your behalf, and all it takes is a Luxe booking number to be automatically routed to this team. However, their service can begin even before that; they’re available to address questions in advance to put your mind at ease prior to booking.
Apart from the elevated service benefit, Luxe by ALG Vacations® is comprised of a meticulously curated collection of properties around the world guaranteed to meet the most exacting of global standards for luxury. Over 450 domestic and international hotels and resorts have been selected to participate in the program, including leading brands such as Four Season, Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, plus boutique gems. This meticulously vetted collection ensures that anything below the very best has already been filtered out of your selection, saving you precious time. And in its place, Luxe Amenities have been added in at over 100 properties, making a stay even more exclusive and special for the clients you book Luxe with. From room upgrades to resort credits and spa discounts to complimentary bottles of quality wine, the Luxe program provides those special touches that elevate each stay.
ALGV also offers access to booking premium, business class, and first-class cabins, as well as premium ground transportation, since ALGV knows your clients want effortless synchronicity in their luxury vacation experience. And through their booking engine, it’s a matter of a few clicks to add on as many Amstar Signature Experiences tours as your clients might want.
Additionally, the safeguards you’ve grown accustomed to ALGV providing are also available to pair with bookings from the Luxe hotel portfolio as well. For example, Travel Protection Plus and all of its benefits is always offered as an option – a valuable consideration for busy individuals with dynamic schedules. And as ALGV advisors know, packages with TPP provide commission protection for you as well.
Plus, everything ALGV customers love about booking with the six brands applies to Luxe reservations. Start making planning luxury travel effortless for yourself at ALGVacations.com/Luxe.
