Accessible Luxury Travel Design

Luxury cruising, thoughtfully designed for every guest.

I'm Priya — a licensed OT and luxury travel designer specializing in accessible cruises, Caribbean all-inclusive escapes, and Hawaii getaways. Every itinerary is vetted, personal, and built for the way you actually travel.

Most travel planners treat accessibility as an add-on. As a licensed occupational therapist, I design for it from the start — which makes the luxury experience better for everyone on the trip.

Flagship Specialty

Accessible luxury cruise planning done properly.

Cruises are one of the most accessible luxury products in travel — one unpack, full ship access, and a floating destination. But accessibility quality varies wildly between ships and lines. This is where I go deepest.

What I vet before recommending a cruise

An ADA-labeled stateroom is a starting point, not an answer. My clinical training shapes how I approach each of these — matching mobility profile, itinerary, and ship against practical details that only surface with experience.

i.
Stateroom specifics
Roll-in vs step-in showers, turning radius, door widths, threshold heights, balcony access, connecting room options.
ii.
Tender & port access
Which ports in your itinerary require tenders, and how each line handles mobility device access. This alone can make or break an itinerary.
iii.
Shore excursions
Which excursions are genuinely accessible vs marketing-accessible — and when a private accessible operator is the better call.
iv.
Onboard support
Dining room access, show seating, pool and spa facilities, medical staffing, and equipment rentals like scooters or oxygen.
v.
Embarkation logistics
Port accessibility, priority boarding, transfers, and assistance coordination — often the most stressful part, fully handled.

I work with every major line.

No single cruise line is "the" accessible line. Matching the guest to the right ship matters more than loyalty to any brand.

Viking Ocean

River cruising is handled selectively — it's a harder product to do well for accessible travel, and I only recommend ships and itineraries I've vetted specifically.

Also Specializing In

Caribbean all-inclusives, Hawaii, and beyond.

Beyond cruising, my practice covers the destinations where luxury and accessibility can both be delivered consistently — resorts I've vetted, partners I trust, and experiences I know will hold up to expectation.

No. 01
Caribbean & Mexico

All-Inclusive Escapes

From Turks & Caicos to the Riviera Maya — adults-only sanctuaries, accessible family resorts, and over-water everything. I plan for everyone from honeymooners to multi-generational groups.

  • Beaches Resorts — strongest accessibility infrastructure in the Caribbean
  • Sandals, Excellence, Zoëtry — adults-only luxury
  • Four Seasons Nevis, Jade Mountain, Rosewood Bermuda
No. 02
Hawaii

Island Luxury

Hawaii isn't all-inclusive — it's resort-and-villa territory, and the top properties handle accessibility beautifully. Ideal for honeymoons, anniversaries, and slow multi-generational trips.

  • Four Seasons Hualalai & Four Seasons Maui at Wailea
  • Grand Wailea, Fairmont Orchid, Montage Kapalua Bay
  • Inter-island itineraries with private transfers
No. 03
Europe

Curated Itineraries

Select European travel — Mediterranean cruises, villa stays in Italy, and London & Paris splurges. Accessibility planning here is detail-heavy and worth the care.

  • Mediterranean ocean cruises
  • Private drivers, vetted accessible hotels
  • Skip-the-line cultural access
No. 04
Special Occasions

Milestones & Groups

Anniversaries, birthdays, multi-generational reunions, and celebration travel that simply has to work. Logistics coordinated, surprises handled, contingencies built in.

  • Multi-gen cruises with cabin-block strategy
  • Renewals, honeymoons, milestone birthdays
  • Group pricing and amenity coordination

About Priya

A clinician's eye, a traveler's heart.

15+ Years Clinical OT Experience 100% Accessibility-First Approach

I'm a licensed occupational therapist with more than fifteen years of clinical experience — a background that fundamentally shapes how I approach travel. Where most planners see a cruise line and a destination, I see transfers, surfaces, fatigue patterns, and the small logistics that decide whether a trip feels effortless or exhausting.

Luxury Miles Collective was built to bring that lens to travel design. Every cruise, resort, and itinerary I recommend has been considered the way a clinician considers any plan of care — with attention to the guest's actual life, not just the brochure.

Based in Tampa, serving clients nationwide.

How We Work

From first call to welcome home.

Every trip follows the same careful process — whether it's an accessible cruise for two or a milestone all-inclusive for twelve.

Step 01

Discovery Call

A 30-minute consult to understand travel goals, mobility considerations, budget range, and what a successful trip looks like for you.

Step 02

Tailored Proposal

Two to three vetted options with clear accessibility notes, pricing, and honest tradeoffs — never a generic itinerary dump.

Step 03

Booking & Prep

Everything coordinated: cabins, transfers, accessible excursions, dietary needs, and supplier-side advocacy for room placement and upgrades.

Step 04

On-Trip & After

Concierge support while you travel, debrief afterward, and a growing understanding of your preferences for future trips.

The Investment

Considered pricing, considered service.

Planning fees start at $150 and are determined by the scope and complexity of your trip. This secures dedicated research, supplier vetting, and concierge-level support — before, during, and after you travel. Commissions from suppliers are earned separately, at no additional cost to you.

In Their Words

Clients on the difference.

"Priya understood exactly what we needed without us having to over-explain. Our cabin was perfect, the tender ports were handled ahead of time, and for the first time in years our trip actually felt like a vacation."
— Caribbean Cruise · Party of Four
"We'd tried to plan Hawaii ourselves twice and given up. Priya made it effortless — down to the airport transfers and dinner reservations. I can't imagine booking a trip any other way now."

Common Questions

Accessible cruising & luxury travel, answered.

True accessibility goes well beyond an ADA label on a cabin. It means the right stateroom layout for your mobility profile, ports that don't require a tender, excursions that have been verified on the ground, and onboard logistics that have been communicated to the ship in advance. That's what I assess before any recommendation.
OTs are trained to look at the full picture of how someone moves through an environment — fatigue, transfer surfaces, thresholds, seating, timing. I apply that clinical lens to every itinerary. It changes the questions I ask and the details I look for that most travel planners simply don't know to consider.
It depends entirely on the traveler, the itinerary, and the specific needs involved. No single line is "the" accessible line — matching matters more than loyalty. I work across Celebrity, Silversea, Regent, Princess, Holland America, Virgin Voyages, Royal Caribbean, and Viking Ocean, and will always recommend based on fit, not commission.
Yes — coordinating equipment rentals (scooters, wheelchairs, oxygen), ensuring proper documentation is submitted to the cruise line, and confirming storage and charging arrangements onboard are all part of the planning process.
Yes. Beyond cruising I specialize in Caribbean and Mexico all-inclusives, Hawaii resort trips, select European travel, and group/milestone travel. The same accessibility-first approach applies to all of it.
Not necessarily. Accessible staterooms are typically priced comparably to standard categories. In some cases they are limited in number, which is why booking timing matters. I'll always be transparent about pricing and tradeoffs.
Planning fees start at $150 and scale with the complexity of your trip. The fee secures dedicated research, accessibility vetting, and concierge support before, during, and after travel. I also earn commissions from suppliers — at no additional cost to you — and I disclose this upfront.
For accessible staterooms, earlier is always better — they are limited on most ships and book quickly. I recommend starting the conversation 6–12 months out for cruises, and 3–6 months for resort travel. That said, I'll always try to work with your timeline.

Let's plan a trip that actually fits.
