Where you stay
decides the trip.

Curv is a luxury travel advisor with the relationships, the rates, and the live access most travellers never see. Hotels lead — the rest of the trip follows.

Book 10,000+ hotels — with benefits that go beyond Virtuoso.

We stack the top luxury-hotel programmes — Virtuoso · Amex Fine Hotels and Resorts · Four Seasons Preferred Partner · Marriott STARS · Rosewood Elite · Mandarin Oriental — and add the direct relationships every advisor claims but few hold. Other channels promise credit and upgrades. We deliver next-level benefits that actually move the needle.

  • Daily breakfast for two — always

    Confirmed at booking. Often a real-money swing when the guest must have breakfast included.

    From the inbox · A Dubai 5-star · live rate comparison

    Same room, same nights — $752/night with breakfast included via Curv vs $967 on the property's public "Bed and Breakfast" rate. That's $215/night the public site never offers.

    ✓ Confirmed
  • Hotel credit per stay — typically $100

    Applied at the property toward dining, spa, or experiences. Sometimes a bit less, sometimes a bit more — but it's on every booking.

    ✓ Confirmed
  • Personalized welcome from us

    Pre-arrival arrangements with the property — dietary, anniversaries, GM-level recognition for repeat guests. Confirmed at booking and personalised by the hotel to the family arriving.

    ✓ Confirmed
  • Highest priority for FREE upgrades

    It's not about having Virtuoso — every advisor has Virtuoso. It's about whether the hotel will move you to the front of the upgrade queue. That happens through relationships.

    From the inbox · A 5-star Mediterranean resort · 2025 booking

    General reservations declined an upgrade for our 3-room, 5-night booking. Two weeks later, through our channels, all three rooms moved up across three suite tiers — complimentary. ~€500/room/night in upgrade value × 3 rooms × 5 nights ≈ €7,500 across the stay.

    ○ On availability
  • Late check-out — a real extension, not 12-to-1pm

    When the flight is at 9pm, we don't mean a one-hour grace. We mean the hotel keeps the room until departure — sometimes complimentary, often without anyone asking.

    From the inbox · A South American luxury hotel · 2024 booking

    Client's evening flight out was at 21:30. The hotel extended the reservation a full extra night complimentary so the family could stay until departure. Not a 1pm-instead-of-noon extension — a real one.

    ○ On availability
  • Personalized touches

    Pre-ordered favourites on a late-arrival day. Plans swapped when the weather turns. Reservations the property hadn't opened yet. The kind of detail you can't script — and that the right relationships make routine.

    ○ On availability
Better than the public web rate

$702 vs $1,209 per week, with breakfast.

Recent booking at a New York landmark hotel. Same room, same nights, same breakfast included. We hold rates the public booking engines never see — relationships, not promo codes.

  • Price match

    See a lower public rate? We match it — without giving up the amenity stack on top.

  • Extras beat discounts

    We'd rather hand you a complimentary Mercedes airport transfer or an experience the hotel never put on the menu than knock a few dollars off the room rate.

This doesn't happen on every booking — but we have the power to make it happen far more often than other channels do. Specifics vary by property; the relationships behind them don't.

How Curv works

Three steps. One inquiry.

Most Curv bookings start as a five-line email or a single request form. What clients pay for is what happens after.

  1. 01

    Tell us where, when, who.

    Send a request — single property, multi-stop, or a brief like "Mediterranean in July, two weeks, four adults two kids". A real Curv advisor responds within four business hours, eight overnight.

  2. 02

    We propose 2–3 hotels with the perks attached.

    Each option lists the suite category, the negotiated rate, and the Virtuoso preferred-partner benefits — confirmed upgrade, daily breakfast, resort credit, amenity. We tell you which property we would actually pick for your trip and why.

  3. 03

    We book and concierge from arrival to departure.

    GM relationship briefed before you land. Pre-arrival shopping, dietary, transfers, restaurant reservations. One named advisor across the trip, with a vetted second who knows the family. A 24/7 in-trip emergency line if anything breaks at three in the morning.

In demand right now

Where Curv is sending people right now.

We cover the whole world — but these are the seasonal-peak picks. If your trip is somewhere else (Vietnam, Egypt, Portugal, anywhere), ask. We have the relationships there too.

Curv does it all

Curv does it all.

Come to us with anything — a single flight, Mykonos and Santorini with activities, a 30-person Caribbean week, a jet to Miami in three hours, F1 paddock weekend, NBA finals tickets, a buyout retreat. We never say no, and destination-first or service-first requests are welcome.

Why fly with Curv

Different access, real speed.

You're not on the airline website hoping the seat is still there at checkout. We work inside Sabre — the GDS the airlines run on. Live availability across every carrier, real-time seat holds, the freedom to change or cancel without the call-centre obstacle course.

Sabre vs OTA · NY → TLV business

What you get: live availability across every airline, held seats while you decide, change-and-cancel flexibility, and a human on the other end of every booking. Curv operates from expertise and efficiency, not from flight deals.

  • Visa & entry tickets

    Need to show a confirmed ticket for a visa application, customs at the border, or a passport renewal? We issue a real held booking in minutes — no risk of booking online and forgetting to cancel before the credit-card hit.

  • Miles & credits, tracked

    Award-flight strategy across every major programme — and we track open airline credits so the ones with expiry dates never lapse. Some clients carry eight+ open credits across carriers; we keep all of them moving.

  1. 0:00–0:10 The brief

    "A client asks to fly today — NY to TLV, nonstop, business."

  2. 0:10–0:25 Going direct is slow

    "Booking directly is a multi-step process. The seat isn't confirmed until the final step — so you can reach the end and find it was taken."

  3. 0:25–0:40 How we work

    "With us, it takes a few seconds to scan through all the options, see that there's only one seat left at this price, and secure it very quickly."

  4. 0:40–0:50 Held while you decide

    "We hold the seat while you decide. If you book it, we can still easily change or cancel the flight."

  5. 0:50–1:00 The point

    "This is true speed and efficiency — not a cheaper fare, but live access, hold flexibility, and a human across every booking."

Trip planning is not free

For trips beyond just hotel + flight — activities, transfers, dining, on-the-ground support — there are design fees. From $500 minimum or $1,000 per week on extended itineraries. Scaled to complexity, not aggressive.

Hotels

Sold at our cost — we earn from the hotel commission, not a markup on you. Sometimes we have rates below the public web price.

Flights

We're not a discount flight site. We operate from expertise, efficiency, and top-line support — live availability, held seats, change-and-cancel flexibility, and a human across every booking.

Curv Elite · By application

For travel that never really stops.

Most clients reach Curv a la carte — one trip at a time. A small group runs every trip, every year, through us — peak windows, complex itineraries, last-minute event access. For them we built Curv Elite: one named senior advisor across the year, member-only inventory at the moments it matters, and a 24/7 line that goes directly to the senior team. Limited spots. By application.
