Julie Arend
All-inclusive Resort & Luxury Travel Specialist
Traveling has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I always find myself daydreaming about my next trip — imagining where I might go, who I may meet along the way and what experiences I will encounter when I'm abroad.
I believe my most important job as a travel agent is to provide my own travelers with these same amazing opportunities. I use my professional experience and my personal knowledge to provide them with expert recommendations for their next trip.
I specialize in the following types of travel experiences:
- All-inclusive resort vacations — All-inclusive resorts are often the perfect escape from the gray days of winter or the doldrums of everyday life. I am familiar with luxury resorts in every destination you can imagine, but my favorite places to recommend include the U.S. Virgin Islands, Belize, Puerto Rico and St. Lucia.
- Luxury travel — I believe that luxury travel is defined by everything going exactly as planned, and every aspect of the trip exceeds the clients' expectations. Luxury means different things to different people. For one person, a luxury experience may be staying in the best room in the hotel that offers panoramic vistas. Another person may define luxury as a private tour along the rugged coast of Ireland. Regardless of your vision for luxury, I am committed to bringing it to life.
For the last three years, I have expanded my professional network and connected with the most respected and reliable suppliers in the industry. I only work with those who have a reputation for excellence, and who fulfill their promises to deliver a high-quality experience for my travelers from start to finish. This gives my clients the confidence they need to embark on new and exciting adventures with the people they love the most.
Now is the best time to begin planning your dream vacation. Contact me today, and we can turn those dreams into your reality.

Australia Humanitarian Trip
Julie was extremely helpful and made my first international travel a breeze! A group of 15 of us students from Northern Illinois and University of Chicago went to Australia for a humanitarian trip and Julie set up all of our flights with no hassle for us. She got us a great deal and was there in case we needed anything throughout it. We had a total of 7 flights for this trip and she took care of it all. I would highly recommend her if you are traveling anywhere in or out of the country! - Cassie
Honeymoon in Maui
Julez Travel is a must for anyone planning a honeymoon! My husband and I traveled to Maui, Hawaii and Julie knew all the best spots for us to visit. She organized a convertible rental car, beautiful resort, snorkeling, parasailing, and the most authentic luau we have ever been to. Planning was totally stress free and the entire honeymoon went so smoothly. Thank you, Julie, for making our honeymoon truly special! We will treasure our Hawaii memories always. -
FIT in Australia, New Zealand & Figi
It was great you were able to help us get our plans together. Without your help, I'm sure Linda and I would have floundered around with a lot of frustration. Thank you for keeping us sane.
