Who AM I

With over 30 year’s sales experience in the travel industry, I have been very fortunate to experience some incredible destinations and travel all over the World. 


As a working mum of twins, I understand the importance of downtime and enjoying a holiday with your chosen companions, whether it’s family or friends.


Your Personal Travel Manager


Hello! I am Sheryl Makin, Director and owner of The Luxury Travel Boutique.


With over 30 year’s sales experience in the travel industry, I have been very fortunate to experience some incredible destinations and travel all over the World. 


As a working mum of twins, I understand the importance of downtime and enjoying a holiday with your chosen companions, whether it’s family or friends.


With this in mind, I launched The Luxury Travel Boutique in 2017 to offer discerning clients my expertise and attention to detail.


My passion for travel started from a young age when the excitement of boarding a plane to Spain for a holiday was considered very adventurous and those early holiday memories nurtured a desire to see the World, experience different cultures and encourage others to go on a great holiday!


My career in travel has been varied; from travel agent to crew for one of the world’s best airlines, from managing top accounts for an independent tour operator to Sales Director of the leading travel trade media publication. I also helped to launch the award winning trade media brand TTG Luxury in 2007 that connects luxury travel sellers with luxury hotels and suppliers. All of this has enabled me to have a wealth of knowledge across all sectors of the industry, with an unrivalled list of contacts that includes many senior industry professionals and destination specialists. 


I have been nominated for several awards since the launch of my business and I am proud of how well respected I am in this incredible industry. 


So why not take advantage of my expertise and contacts and allow me to become your personal travel manager. I will be on hand to answer your queries and ensure you and your travel companions enjoy a stress-free experience from your initial enquiry to your return.



LEAVE IT TO ME

I understand life is busy, so I am on hand to search for your perfect holiday. Researching and finding the right holiday takes time and patience; a luxury not all of us have! At The Luxury Travel Boutique, with over 30 years of contacts in the travel industry I like to go the extra mile to ensure your luxury holiday meets your expectations. 


COMPLETE HOLIDAY SECURITY & PEACE OF MIND 

The Luxury Travel Boutique is part of The Global Travel Group plc, owned by The Travel Network Group; one of the largest travel agent consortia in the UK. We are ATOL bonded, which means your money is kept safe in a trust account the minute you part with it. It is then safely held for you until you depart. This means, that should your travel supplier collapse, you will be refunded, found another holiday or repatriated. Book your holiday with The Luxury Travel Boutique for all types of luxury holidays, from ski, beach, touring and bespoke itineraries knowing you have complete peace of mind. 


WHO I WORK WITH 

The Luxury Travel Boutique works with over 200 approved travel trade partners who have been hand selected and vetted to ensure that your luxury holiday is everything you want it to be. I am consistently updating my travel knowledge with trade partners and tourism boards through face-to-face meetings and events, e-learning platforms, business retreats and familiarisation trips. This ensures I am up to speed with the latest openings and launches and keeps my industry contacts fresh.
