Luxury Travel Network Virtuoso Adds BeautifulPlaces to Its List

[SUMMARY: Virtuoso, a global network of 7,000 travel consultants who cater to the luxury market, has added BeautifulPlaces to its list of preferred providers. BeautifulPlaces, located in Sonoma, Calif., is a lodging company that provides villa rentals to upscale food-and-wine-oriented travelers.]

19 April 2006 -- Virtuoso (www.virtuoso.com/us), a global network of 7,000 travel consultants that caters to the luxury market, has added BeautifulPlaces (www.beautiful-places.com) to its list of preferred providers.

Virtuoso, whose orientation toward the upscale travel market dates back to the 1950s, offers affluent travelers luxurious accommodations and cruises, individually designed tour packages and first-rate travel amenities. The company has entered into dozens of what it calls “strategic partnerships” with some of the world’s best travel accommodation purveyors, including Ritz Carlton, St. Regis, The Peninsula Group, as well as individual resorts and hotels of note.

BeautifulPlaces is a wine-and-food-oriented lodging company that markets and manages the rental of Napa and Sonoma villas to travelers seeking a peak, memorable, unique wine country experience. Founded in 2003, the company now has more than 50 homes in its collection, which is the largest of its kind in Northern California.

“Virtuoso’s decision to include BeautifulPlaces as one of its preferred providers is both gratifying and complimentary to us,” says Patrick Smith, company president and CEO. “It’s a recognition of the level of quality that we bring to our program. We’re proud to be participating in the Virtuoso program with the likes of Ritz Carlton and St. Regis.”

BeautifulPlaces will be listed on the Virtuoso web site under “Luxury Hotels, Resorts, Spas and Lodges by Virtuoso.” Visitors looking there for a BeautifulPlaces villa will be directed to a Virtuoso travel consultant who can book the property and any desired concierge-type services.
