Mandy Wood - Turquoise Holidays

After over 20 years in luxury travel, I stepped away from my career at the start of 2020, feeling ready for a new challenge. It only took three years for me to realise just how deeply travel runs through my veins — this industry truly has my heart.

People often ask me, “Where is the best place you’ve ever been?”
Well, that’s impossible to answer — there are simply too many “bests” for me. Some of my favourite memories include:

  • Taking a jet ski island tour in Bermuda
  • Enjoying a Cosmopolitan at the former Oak Room in The Plaza Hotel, NYC
  • Experiencing an underwater spa treatment at Huvafen Fushi in the Maldives
  • Hiking Mount Royal on Canouan Island (in the Grenadines)
  • Swimming with turtles in Barbados with my little boy

Time is so precious — it’s the one thing money can’t buy. That’s why I’m so passionate about creating unforgettable holidays for others: to help them experience something extraordinary, and to build beautiful memories that last a lifetime.
