Get to know us
The real humans behind your next seamless, feel-good, done-for-you vacation.
We’re not a booking engine—we’re a travel design studio for busy adults who want more ease, more intention, and more “that was so us” moments on every trip. From custom Europe itineraries to VIP Disney escapes, we curate travel that fits your life and your style.
We’re not just booking trips. We’re designing experiences.
We believe luxury isn’t always about formality or excess. Sometimes it looks like:
- Having the right room for your family dynamic
- Knowing which resort actually fits your vibe
- Having transportation handled before you land
- Avoiding rookie mistakes that waste time and money
- Feeling supported before, during, and after your trip
Our team works collaboratively behind the scenes to create thoughtful, high-touch experiences while still keeping things approachable, modern, and personal.
No cookie-cutter itineraries.
No call-center energy.
No “good luck and Godspeed” after booking.
Just expert guidance and genuinely caring humans who want your trip to feel really, really good.
Bright Life Travel Co. is made up of experienced advisors who each bring different strengths, specialties, and perspectives to the table, while sharing the same commitment to professionalism, integrity, and exceptional client care.
We value relationships over transactions and believe the best travel experiences come from truly understanding our clients.
Whether you’re planning your first big family vacation or coordinating a multi-generational trip with a dozen opinions involved, our team is here to make the process feel easier, more organized, and far more enjoyable.
Hi, I’m Kristin! I'm the founder of Bright Life Travel Co., travel advisor, business owner, and mom of four.
I started this company because I genuinely loved planning travel for my own family and quickly realized how overwhelming the process had become for so many people. Between endless online opinions, confusing resort options, and the mental load of coordinating travel for multiple people, planning vacations had started feeling more stressful than exciting.
What began as helping friends and family eventually grew into a full-service travel company built around thoughtful service, elevated experiences, and helping busy people travel better.
Over the years, Bright Life Travel Co. has grown into a collaborative team of advisors who care deeply about creating meaningful experiences for clients while bringing professionalism and heart back into the travel industry.
And honestly? We still get just as excited about your vacation as you do.

I was going through video last weekend to find content to post and came across this gem. Here’s what’s going on —
A few of our advisors were filming some content while another teammate was off getting new headshots.
As soon as they spotted her across the bridge, they stopped what they were doing and started cheering.
“YES GIRL!”
Clapping.
Laughing.
Celebrating her for no reason other than they were excited to see her.
Nobody planned it.
Nobody asked them to.
That’s just who they are.
Moments like this remind me that the best teams aren’t built through policies or team meetings.
They’re built when people genuinely want to see each other succeed.
I believe that’s one of the reasons our clients have the experience they do.
When one advisor learns something new, everyone benefits.
When someone discovers an incredible resort, they share it.
When someone needs help, there’s always another advisor willing to jump in.
We don’t compete with each other.
We cheer for each other.
And I wouldn’t trade that for anything.
Because at the end of the day, we’re not just building a travel agency.
We’re building a place where great people get to do great work together. 🤍
Research trips aren’t vacations.
They’re one of the ways we become better advisors.
On our recent trip to Mexico, our team toured around eight different resorts in just a few days. That meant walking room categories, testing the beaches, checking out the pools, eating at the restaurants, and paying attention to all the little details you won’t find on a resort website.
By the end of the trip, we weren’t saying, “This resort is the best.”
We were saying things like...
✔️ This is perfect for families with young kids.
✔️ We’d recommend this one for couples celebrating something special.
✔️ This is a great fit for multi-generational groups.
✔️ This one offers incredible value for the price.
That’s the difference.
The best resort isn’t the fanciest one. It’s the one that’s the best fit for your vacation.
We invest in visiting destinations firsthand so when you ask for a recommendation, it’s based on real experience, not just brochures and reviews.
Because finding the right fit is what turns a good vacation into a great one.
Interviewing our sweet @traveldesignbyerin to hear her biggest travel mistake.
If you know Erin, you know she’s so organized and has all the answers. It makes her an amazing travel advisor. It’s nice to know she’s also a human 😂🤪
Also, first interview so if you stay til the end you can hear @travelbykristinh fumble on the mic.
We don’t know that exactly 87% of memories from travel are food memories, but it seems pretty accurate to us.
Just girls who needed a night or two to be silly. 🥰😂
So lucky to have an agency full of friends who don’t take themselves too seriously.
Anyone want to see a part 2 with the Karen wigs? We may or may not have more footage.
A lot of people think travel advisors spend their days looking at resorts and sending pretty itineraries.
And yes... there are definitely some beautiful photos involved. 😏
But behind every trip is a lot of work most travelers never see.
We’re comparing resorts that all look amazing online but deliver very different experiences.
We’re tracking schedule changes before they become vacation problems.
We’re researching destinations, room categories, transportation, excursions, and all the little details that can make or break a trip.
We’re helping clients avoid the endless cycle of opening 37 browser tabs and somehow ending up more confused than when they started.
And when something does go wrong? We’re already working on a solution.
At Bright Life Travel, we don’t just book travel.
We help families, couples, groups, and busy professionals spend their vacation budget wisely, save countless hours of research, and feel confident about the decisions they’re making.
Because planning a great trip isn’t just about finding a place to stay.
It’s about creating an experience that fits your people, your priorities, and your vision for the trip.
That’s the part we love most. ✈️
What’s the most overwhelming part of planning a vacation for you?
Most people see the destination photos.
The resort tours.
The ocean views.
The pretty hotel rooms.
What they don’t see are the hours spent sitting around tables like this one.
Talking through client experiences.
Sharing what’s working (and what’s not).
Learning from each other’s successes and mistakes.
Building better systems.
Comparing notes on resorts, destinations, suppliers, and travel trends.
As travel advisors, continuing education isn’t optional. The industry changes constantly, and the more we learn, the better we can guide our clients.
One of my favorite parts of our Bright Life Travel retreat wasn’t actually the resort.
It was watching our team collaborate, challenge ideas, share knowledge, and leave with pages of notes on how we can serve our clients even better.
Because the best travel experiences don’t happen by accident.
They’re built on expertise, experience, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes work that most people never see.
And honestly? That’s exactly how we like it. ❤️
What you see is the vacation.
What we’re focused on is everything that makes it unforgettable.

The @brightlifetravelco team operates with a slight level of delightful chaos. 😌
We saw a reel with animal masks months before our retreat was even on the calendar and somehow… suspiciously similar masks ended up in everyone’s swag bags. 🐯🐼🐵
Safe to say we fully committed to the bit, and honestly? Zero regrets.
We hope this makes you laugh half as much as it made us. 😂
Not all all-inclusive resorts are created equal. 👀
And honestly? That’s exactly why working with a travel advisor matters.
Because sure… the photos all look pretty online. But what actually makes a resort the right fit for your trip?
The quieter pool that matches your vibe.
The restaurants that are actually worth prioritizing.
The experiences you’d miss if no one told you.
The “book this before you arrive” details that make the difference between a good trip and a wow, that was seamless trip.
UNICO 20°87° is one of those resorts we love for the right traveler—modern, elevated, adults-only, and full of thoughtful little details that make the experience feel special.
This is the kind of intel our clients get because we actually visit these properties, ask questions, and obsess over the details so you don’t have to 😌
Thinking about an adults-only Mexico getaway? We’d love to help you find the right fit.

Planning a corporate or incentive trip might look simple from the outside… until you’re juggling rooming lists, flights from multiple cities, resort negotiations, transfers, activities, dietary needs, executive expectations, and the one person who suddenly decides they “might bring a spouse.” 🙃
That’s exactly why having the right travel partner matters.
Corporate and incentive travel isn’t just about booking rooms. It’s about creating an experience that reflects your company well, rewards your team meaningfully, and runs smoothly from start to finish.
From supplier relationships and contract guidance to logistics, problem-solving, and the little details that make a trip feel elevated… this is where expertise matters.
If your company is thinking about an incentive trip, leadership retreat, or corporate getaway, we’d love to help you make it seamless (and significantly less stressful).
DM us CORPORATE to start the conversation.
