Suites With Keith | Better Rooms. Better Trips.

The evidence

Counted, and on file

134Hotels on file — researched, compared and written up across Europe, the islands, Asia, Africa and the Americas, from Aman Kyoto to Erēma on Milos. The ones I’ve slept in say so.

38Toured and stayed in four weeks, most recently — the Cyclades, eight islands, solo, room by room. Every destination I recommend gets this treatment sooner or later; Greece was simply this spring’s trip.

02Collections — the second is out now. Issue No. 01, Greece, in print; Issue No. 02, Napa & Sonoma, published September 15. The field notes behind the recommendations.

The judgment

Santorini or Mykonos?

The Cyclades’ two headliners, and the first question every Greece trip has to answer. No hotel will pick a side. I will — it takes about thirty seconds.

Choose Santorini

If the caldera is the reason you’re coming

Two or three nights in a cave suite on the cliff — the classic picture, and it earns its reputation. Make it the finale of the route, not the start.

Choose Mykonos

If you want range — the loud island and the quiet one

The island that surprised me most — some of the best hotels, meals and service of my entire Cyclades trip. Beach clubs by day, serious tables at night.

Same rate — sometimes better

You can book the room.
You can’t make them know you.

“With less than 24 hours’ notice we needed a hotel in Saint-Tropez in peak season. Keith stepped in with the perfect recommendation — and personally contacted the hotel before our arrival. When we pulled up, the staff greeted us by name, welcomed us with cold towels, and surprised us with a complimentary upgrade.”

The rate through me is the one you’d pay booking direct — sometimes better. What changes is who calls the hotel before you arrive, and who answers while you’re there.

What clients say

Booked through me, in their words

“He handled everything, from booking to communications, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing.”

Nida T. · Tuscany

“There was a snafu with our hotel on our first night in Greece. Keith communicated on our behalf, and the hotel went above and beyond, including an upgrade.”

Kai Yu W. · Santorini

“Worth its weight in gold. I won’t ever book a stay without Keith again.”
