About Me

Hawaii Sunset
Hawaii Sunset

I’ve traveled across the Hawaiian Islands with the same meticulous care I use to design travel for my clients. What makes this archipelago stand out isn’t just the postcard beaches, but how each island functions as its own distinct ecosystem with a unique pace, landscape, and best use of a traveler's time.

I’ve navigated the coastal roads of Maui, explored the rugged volcanic craters on the Big Island, walked the historic neighborhoods of Oahu, and scouted the quietest valleys of Kauai. My recommendations come from real miles on the ground, ensuring your itinerary avoids the standard tourist traps.Through my Travel Leaders and Virtuoso affiliations, I provide my clients with preferred rates, room upgrades, and exclusive amenities at Hawaii's most exceptional properties.

However, a successful Hawaiian holiday requires looking beyond the resorts to understand the distinct character of each island:

Oahu: The cultural and historic anchor. While many rush through Honolulu, I focus on balancing the energy of the city with its sophisticated culinary evolution. I curate days that blend private guided tours of historic landmarks like Pearl Harbor with scenic drives up to the North Shore, pointing you toward the exact surf towns and local food trucks that define the island's coastal culture.

Maui: An exceptional destination for pairing upscale relaxation with active exploration. I steer clients toward the distinct microclimates of the island—whether that means finding the right luxury enclave in Wailea or Kapalua, or mapping out a pre-dawn journey up to the summit of Haleakala. I know how to structure the road to Hana so you beat the heavy traffic and experience the hidden waterfalls in peace.

Kauai: The Garden Isle is best suited for travelers seeking raw natural beauty and a slower, more deliberate pace. I specialize in coordinating private helicopter charters over the inaccessible cliffs of the Na Pali Coast and arranging guided treks through the dramatic expanse of Waimea Canyon.

Island of Hawaii (The Big Island): A massive, geologically diverse landscape that rewards active travelers. From the snow-capped heights of Mauna Kea to the active landscapes of Volcanoes National Park, I design overland routes that allow you to transition seamlessly between the stark lava fields of the Kona coast and the lush, waterfall-heavy valleys surrounding Hilo.Logistics are the unsung backbone of a seamless multi-island itinerary.

Managing inter-island flights, coordinating reliable private transfers, and selecting the right vehicle types for regional terrain are all details I handle to keep your trip entirely stress-free.Hawaii rewards travelers who go past the surface to experience the true spirit of the islands. Whether you are planning a multi-generational family gathering, a private luxury retreat, or a custom island-hopping adventure, my goal is to build a trip that feels deeply personal, well-paced, and rich with local insight.

If you are ready to move past the generic brochures and experience Hawaii the right way, I would be glad to help.

Excellent Customer Service
Reviewed By Bonnie - Mastic Beach, New York | Traveled to Switzerland ~ Europe
Stoddard is a wonderful travel agent who provides outstanding customer service!

I initially contacted Stoddard via email. He reached out to me that very same day via phone and email. I spoke with him at length that afternoon and explained that we want to go on a 10-12 day trip to Switzerland. Before I went to bed that evening, he sent over a full itinerary which included flights, hotels, some meals, and recommendations for how to spend our time. All of this came in under our budget. Everything that Stoddard picked was fabulous, but since we had some extra money we added an extra night and made one or two upgrades. Stoddard was patient, friendly, and responsive throughout all of our interactions, and he always gave his honest opinion when we asked him for his input. It's evident that he knows Switzerland very well!! Our trip is now officially booked and we could not be more excited!

I highly recommend using Stoddard to plan your next vacation. He will not disappoint!!

Trip of a lifetime!
Reviewed By Colinradich - Ventura, CA | Traveled to Europe
Stoddard was a fantastic representative that provided us with a once in a life time trip that we will remember for the rest of our lives. His attention to detail and communication were impeccable, and he did everything he could to ensure we had the most amazing experience ever. I can't recommend his services enough and I refer him to friends and family all of the time. I know they share my feelings as well, based on their experiences working with Stoddard. I can't recommend him enough.

Honeymoon to Thailand
Reviewed By mike-and-emilia - San Diego | Traveled to Thailand ~ East and Southeast Asia
First time getting away in many years, newlyweds on our post-honeymoon vacation somewhere we knew nothing about, and Stoddard immediately got a great trip together, along with all the experience he had living there a few years. Never used an agent before, not to mention a specialist like Stoddard. Talked me through the options, send example, settled on a 14 day trip, and it was awesome... Thanks Stoddard !
