Meet Lindsey

Owner + Luxury travel advisor

Hi, I’m Lindsey — the founder of Leisurely Travel Co., based in beautiful Charleston, South Carolina. I’m passionate about elevated experiences, always on the hunt for incredible hotels around the world, and obsessed with finding the best places to eat wherever I go.

I’ve spent the past 15 years working in the tourism industry, from an internship at Disney World to planning meetings and events at hotels, and later promoting my hometown through the Charleston tourism board. Travel has always been a huge part of my life, both professionally and personally.

In 2021, I launched my travel blog, Leisurely Linds, as a way to share the destinations, hotels, and itineraries I personally love. Over the years, I’ve explored 20+ countries across 5 continents from surfing in Costa Rica, hiking in Patagonia, wine tasting in Napa, and honeymooning in the Seychelles. Every trip has deepened my knowledge and fueled my excitement to help others travel well.

Leisurely Travel Co. was born out of my passion for creating elevated and meaningful travel experiences. Whether you’re dreaming of a luxurious honeymoon, a girls’ getaway, or a once-in-a-lifetime family vacation, I’m here to make it easy, exciting, and completely customized to you. I’ll take care of the research, bookings, and little extras so all you have to do is show up and make incredible memories with the people you love.

This is travel planning with the heart of a traveler and the resources of a pro.

I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s plan something unforgettable.

The best things to do in Patagonia, Chile 🇨🇱 The best things to do in Patagonia, Chile 🇨🇱

Chilean Patagonia is one of those places that has really stayed with me. The landscapes are even more breathtaking than you can imagine and I’d go back in a heartbeat!

From hiking in Torres del Paine National Park and seeing Grey Glacier up close to exploring the quieter trails around Laguna Azul and stopping at Cascada Rio Paine, there is so much to see and do here. 🏔️

Add in horseback riding, wildlife spotting and a stay at one of Patagonia’s incredible luxury lodges and you have the makings of an unforgettable trip!

It’s one of my top recommendations for a luxury adventure trip or a honeymoon that’s a little different.

Save this for your Chilean Patagonia bucket list and if a trip to Patagonia is on your radar, I’d love to help you plan it!

If Greece is on your list, here’s how I’d narr If Greece is on your list, here’s how I’d narrow down which Greek island to visit! 🇬🇷

Sifnos for the food, Milos for the beaches, Mykonos for the beach clubs, Santorini for those iconic views, Paros for chic island vibes, Naxos for families, Crete for a little bit of everything, Hydra for old world charm, and Rhodes for history.

But there’s definitely more to it than this! The best island (or islands) for you depends on your travel style, time of year, and how you want to spend your days.

Save this Greek islands guide for your next Greece trip. And if you need help planning a custom itinerary and navigating the tricky logistics of a Greek island hopping trip, DM me GREECE to get started. 🤍✈️

📍 Verina Astra | Sifnos, Greece I first stayed 📍 Verina Astra | Sifnos, Greece

I first stayed here back in 2018 and returned a couple of summers ago. It’s one I kind of want to shout from the rooftops, but also keep as a very close secret. 🤍

But the secret is kind of getting out. Verina Astra has been featured on lists of the best hotels by Conde Nast Traveler, so it’s definitely gained attention.

The hotel has newer freestanding villas with private plunge pools and an on site restaurant serving incredible meals under the olive trees with amazing sea views.

And the view alone is a big selling point here. Overlooking the Aegean Sea, all you see is the occasional distant island and deep blue water that seems to go on forever.

The hotel itself is small, boutique, and intimate, and the hospitality from their team is some of the best I’ve experienced in all of Greece.

The on site spa is super small, with just a couple of treatment rooms, but the setting is incredible. Big glass windows look out over the sea and the whole space feels so serene. I had one of the best massages, which ended with an unexpected facial that was such a nice touch! 🧖‍♀️

If you’re planning a Greece trip and looking for one of the best hotels in Greece for a quieter, more intimate island escape, put Verina Astra on your list. Sifnos is such a special island and this hotel is a big part of what makes it so memorable!

One thing to know: the last time I stayed, I booked this hotel a YEAR in advance. So if you’re dreaming of staying here next summer, let’s start checking availability now to get the best room. I’d love to help you book it and make the most of your stay. 🫶

4 mistakes to avoid when planning a trip to Greece 4 mistakes to avoid when planning a trip to Greece!

1. Choosing the wrong island. Every Greek island has a different personality! Some are better for beach days and relaxing, while others are all about exploring villages, dining out, and a little nightlife. Think about the kind of trip you want before deciding where to go.

2. Overlooking boutique, family run hotels. I love a Four Seasons hotel as much as anyone, but some of my favorite stays in Greece are smaller, locally owned properties with so much character and a more personal feel. Don’t assume the big name luxury hotels are always the best choice!

3. Not spending enough time on each island. Island hopping sounds fun, but moving around too much means wasting precious vacation time on ferries, flights, and transfers. I’d rather spend a few extra nights in each place and actually enjoy it than try to squeeze too much into one trip.

4. Waiting too long to book. Some of my favorite stays in Greece book up a year in advance, especially for the summer months. If you have your heart set on a particular hotel or island, don’t wait until the last minute. The best time to book your 2027 Greece trip is right now!

Greece is a destination where a little planning makes a big difference. And choosing the right hotels and islands for YOU is the most important piece. 

Dreaming of the Greek Islands in 2027? DM me GREECE or inquire on our website and let’s start planning a trip tailored to your travel style, with the right islands, beautiful boutique hotels, and thoughtful details taken care of before you go.
