In a year of amazing achievements, we have another one to add to our growing trophy cabinet - and this one feels particularly special.
We're absolutely thrilled to share that Luxury Dream Holidays has won Best Newcomer at the prestigious Lusso Luminari Awards 2025!
A Night to Remember
The Luminari Awards celebrate renowned tour operator Lusso’s top UK agents and being in that room at the stunning Kimpton Fitzroy London on Tuesday night felt really special.
The black-tie evening included a drinks reception, sit-down meal, supplier presentations, and of course, the awards ceremony itself. When our name was announced as Best Newcomer, the surprise, joy and pride was such a brilliant feeling.
What This Means to Us
For our small Bristol-based agency, this recognition is truly humbling. When I founded LDH in 2018, it was about creating something different - a personal approach to luxury travel built on genuine relationships and genuine care.
To be recognised as Best Newcomer by Lusso, especially in a year where we were also shortlisted as finalists for the TTG Luxury Top Weddings & Honeymoons Agency Award, feels like confirmation that we're on the right path.
Thank You
None of this would be possible without:
Our wonderful clients - thank you for trusting us with your most special journeys. Your continued support means everything.
Our brilliant team - this award belongs to all of us. Your dedication, expertise, and passion shine through in everything we do.
Our supplier partners - thank you for your unwavering support and for sharing your incredible properties with us.
The Lusso team - Gareth, Adele, and everyone at Lusso, thank you for creating an evening full of wonderful people, great vibes, and a lot of gratitude.
The Kimpton Fitzroy London - thank you for looking after us so beautifully.
And to photographer Frances Stephenson for capturing some brilliant moments!
What's Next?
The trophy now has pride of place in our office, and it's wonderful company for our other achievements this year.
But we're not resting on our laurels. This recognition inspires us to keep doing what we do best - listening carefully to what matters to you, crafting bespoke experiences, and being there every step of the way.
Here's to the next chapter, and to many more celebrations like this! 🥂
