Approachable Luxury: Your Path to Growing a Thriving Travel Business

Last updatedMarch 31, 2025



When you hear "luxury travel," you might picture grand hotels, lavish dinners, and exclusive tours. But today’s travelers are looking for something more personal and relaxed. This shift has created a wonderful new trend called approachable luxury—a style that offers upscale experiences without the stiffness, making luxury travel accessible and comfortable. As a travel advisor, embracing approachable luxury is your opportunity to connect with more clients, boost loyalty, and truly stand out.

What is Approachable Luxury, Really?

At its core, approachable luxury is about crafting high-quality, memorable experiences that feel genuine and relaxed. It's luxury without the stuffiness—where your clients feel pampered, but still at ease, like they can truly be themselves and fully enjoy their adventures.

Why You’ll Love Offering Approachable Luxury

  • Reach More Clients: Approachable luxury attracts a wide range of travelers—from younger adventurers to families wanting a meaningful, laid-back escape.
  • Build Lasting Relationships: Clients who experience this blend of comfort and indulgence tend to return, building loyalty and generating valuable referrals.
  • Stand Out in Your Market: Offering approachable luxury helps you differentiate yourself, giving your business a unique edge in a crowded industry.


How to Make Luxury More Approachable

  • Personalize the Experience: Get to know your clients' interests and passions. Arrange special activities like private cooking lessons, local tours with a personal touch, or charming accommodations that reflect their personality.
  • Choose Authentic Accommodations: Suggest places that feel special but cozy, like boutique hotels or private villas that emphasize comfort, privacy, and local culture rather than traditional opulence.
  • Prioritize Accessibility: Keep things easy and inclusive. Make sure bookings are straightforward, communication is clear, and your clients always feel welcomed and well cared for.

Marketing Approachable Luxury

Share stories and real-life experiences to show how approachable luxury looks in action. Use your social media and newsletters to highlight genuine, comfortable, and joyful moments that your clients can relate to.
