Turning dreams into destinations
Hi, I'm Mikaela Waters. Born and raised in California and now calling Hong Kong home, I bring an international lens to luxury travel design. I've built my life around exploring and understanding the world and have lived on four continents.
I've experienced firsthand the power of cultural connection and meaningful adventure, and now make it my work to create those experiences for others. As an affiliate of Travel Edge, I provide my clients with global access to one of the most expansive luxury travel networks.
I design travel for those who want more than sightseeing — travelers who want to take home memories, flavors, and new perspectives — and for those who have optimism that their next great trip is just around the corner.
If you're ready to begin planning, or simply want to follow along for inspiration, let's connect!
WHY BOOK WITH ME
The Difference is in the Details
01
Perks you can't book
yourself
As a Travel Edge advisor, I have access to exclusive partnerships and amenity programs with luxury hotels around the world — complimentary room upgrades, daily breakfast, resort credits, early check-in, late check-out, welcome touches — to ensure you get VIP value.
02
Your vacation starts
before you leave
Researching destinations, comparing properties, building itineraries — the stress can overshadow the trip itself. I take that off your plate entirely. From our first conversation to your final night, every detail is handled. You arrive excited, not exhausted from planning.
03
Built around who you are and how you travel
No two itineraries look the same. Whether you want slow mornings and spa afternoons, deep cultural immersion, or experiential adventure, every detail is designed around your pace, your passions, and your travel style.
04
The places most travelers never find
Trips planned from experience and expertise, not ads or algorithms. The recommendations I make are grounded in destination knowledge and long-standing relationships with the hotels, operators, and guides who define exceptional travel.
