WHO IS KIRSTY AND CO
KIRSTY MITCHELL
FOUNDER
LUXURY TRAVEL ADVISOR & MALDIVES SPECIALIST
Living on the beautiful northern beaches of Sydney, our founder Kirsty is your ultimate guide to luxury travel. With a passion for the tropics, she also shines as your go-to expert for all things Maldives!
When she’s not designing travel for her clients, you are likely to find her on an island somewhere in the middle of the Indian Ocean, or exploring the coolest global hotspots. Never one to miss a sunrise or sunset - and likely to deviate off the path for a good morning coffee - Kirsty’s adventurous spirit is most alive when she is jetting off to new destinations.
With a keen eye for detail in the luxury hotel space, Kirsty has a sixth sense for those subtle nuances & special touches that elevate the guest experience. She firmly believes that it’s these almost invisible elements that truly make a trip extraordinary.
But beyond her expertise lies Kirsty’s warm and approachable nature. She’s all about connecting with today’s modern luxury traveler, curating personalised travel experiences that perfectly match your unique style and personality.
