Alaethea Hankins

I'm the kind of traveler who gets overwhelmed when choosing a hotel- too many choices! Working with Alaethea at La Lune was a total game-changer. She quickly found the ideal spot for me and my partner, perfectly matching our style and budget. Her confidence gave me confidence and was instantly calming. It felt like she just 'got' what we wanted, and the best part?- no extra cost! Not only does it not cost extra for me, but it's supporting an amazing woman owned, small business. Seriously, this is the most stress-free way to plan a trip. I can't recommend her enough!

This was my first time working with Alaethea or a travel planner/agency in general. I was blown away! There is SO much value offered by Alaethea at La Lune. It really helped focus our energy each day, and kept the what-ifs and FOMO from creeping in, wondering what we may have missed. I’ve told nearly everyone I know that I’ll never do another trip without La Lune. I work hard to go on vacation and enjoy my time off. Why wouldn’t I want a professional help me make it the best it can be?

I recently had the pleasure of working with Alaethea as my travel advisor for our first anniversary trip, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service she provided. We stayed at the Hoxton Holborn, and from start to finish, Alaethea ensured that our experience was absolutely perfect. Firstly, she secured us a super late check-in at 3 pm, which was a huge convenience. When we encountered a minor issue with our room, Alaethea promptly addressed it and went above and beyond by arranging complimentary breakfast and drinks at the bar for us. To our delight, we were also greeted with the sweetest handwritten note, our favorite type of wine, and some delicious chocolate when we arrived. These thoughtful touches made our stay incredibly special and showed her attention to detail and genuine care for her clients’ satisfaction. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication are unmatched. I highly recommend Alaethea to anyone looking for a travel advisor who will go the extra mile to make your trip extraordinary. Thank you, Alaethea, for making our anniversary so memorable!

Alaethea was exceptional in crafting an unforgettable European adventure that was perfectly tailored to my needs! Each hotel she picked for us had its own unique charm, and we were always welcomed with a thoughtful note, gift, and noticeable upgrades that made us feel extra special. Our boat day and cooking class that she organized were the highlights of my week! La Lune took all the stress out of planning a fantastic trip. I am incredibly grateful and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking to turn their travel dreams into reality!
