Luxury travel, thoughtfully planned.
Maggie plans travel for families and couples who want exceptional hotels, thoughtful itineraries, and a trip that feels personal and seamless from start to finish.
She helps with every part of the journey — where to go, where to stay, how to get around, and all the details in between. Hotels and villas, flights and transfers, guides, restaurants, boats, and special experiences.
Just as importantly, she makes sure the itinerary works.
How long do you really need in each place?
Is it worth changing hotels?
What will the kids actually enjoy?
Which restaurants are worth reserving, and where is it better to keep things simple?
All the pieces should come together in a way that feels easy once you’re there.
Tell Maggie how you like to travel.
Some families want to see as much as possible. Others want a beautiful hotel, a few good plans, and plenty of time to do nothing.
Some trips are about the kids. Some are about a milestone. Some are simply about getting away.
Before planning begins, Maggie gets to know how you travel — your family, your priorities, your pace, and the things you’ve loved (and hated) on past trips.
Tell her what matters to you, and she’ll take it from there.
The relationships behind the trip.
Maggie regularly travels to meet with hotel teams, visit properties, and connect with local partners and destination experts. Staying close to the people behind the places she recommends means she knows what’s changed, what’s worth knowing, and who to call when a client needs something.
Through the SmartFlyer and Virtuoso networks, her clients also receive VIP benefits at many leading hotels — including daily breakfast, hotel credits, room upgrades, and early check-in or late checkout when available.
Where Maggie Works
Maggie combines extensive travel experience with a global network of trusted hotels and local partners.
She has firsthand knowledge of many of the places she recommends, and works closely with experts on the ground to plan destinations she hasn’t yet visited herself.
She brings all of that knowledge together — and turns it into a trip that is thoughtfully considered from beginning to end.
Meet Maggie.
Maggie has traveled extensively across Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean, Africa, South America, and Asia, and brings that experience — along with a global network of trusted hotels and local partners — to the trips she plans.
Before launching Maggie Parsell Travel, she spent 15 years in technology managing complex partnerships, building relationships and navigating the details behind high-stakes projects. That experience now informs the way she plans travel: thoughtfully, thoroughly, and with a strong attention to detail.
She also travels internationally with her four young children, giving her firsthand perspective on the logistics, pacing, and details that can make or break a family trip.
Maggie works with a deliberately small number of clients so that each trip receives the level of attention it deserves.
