“This Company Luxury Tour Escapes is a total Scam, they promise you deals for $300 for a 5 day/4 night resort to the Carribean All Inclusive and upon asking they say no hidden fees. I spoke to this lady Ashley, the biggest scamster of the company. She gave me all sweet talk and said after I buy the deal for $300, If I change my mind, they would give me a full refund. Once i did the payment for $300, then when I selected the resort she tells me $289 resort submission and another $30/day for resort fees, so you spend $300 for the deal, again $289 for some resort charge +$150 resort taxes, almost $450 extra as hidden fees in addition to the $300 I paid. Then she tells me there is a holiday fee of $200. When I called the company up, that same lady Ashley was shouting on top of her voice and accusing me that she informed me about all this, Im not crazy to sign up after I hear all this hidden fees and she said she won't refund my deal package fee of $300. BEWARE ASHLEY AND LUXURY TOUR ESCAPES ARE SCAMSTERS! I have reported them!”

“Do not book your holiday with these people!! We had to pay an extra ~$2000 and had a terrible experience getting to our resort. Luxury Escapes failed to make it clear in our ‘package deal’ booking to Fiji that our transfers to our island resort excluded travel by sea! Pretty important part of an island resort holiday package booking you’d think!! So when we arrived at the Port Denaru after our flight landed at 4pm we had no ferry. We also discovered at this point that the last ferry leaves the port at 3.30pm so we never had any chance of making it regardless due to the flight booking time made as part of the Luxury Escapes ‘package deal’!!! As a result we had to walk around the port late at night with 2 kids and luggage to find accommodation for the night that cost us a fortune and ruined the start of our holiday. We’ve tried to resolve this with Luxury Escapes since and they have offered no explanations or cost refunds”

“We purchased a weeks accommodation in Bali through Luxury Escapes website. The price seemed comparable to other Bali accommodation they were advertising. Based on now having accommodation, we booked our flights. After taking the money from my credit card, over 24 hours later they then proceeded to tell us they wouldn't honour the deal and we had to pay an extra $840 if we wanted that accommodation. This is Bait and Switch advertising which is illegal in Australia. They have been reported to the ACCC and the Office of Fair Trading. We have been left with no accommodation but flights to a destination. Obviously very unhappy with this outcome. I'm now worried this is just a scam website that is phishing for credit card details. Be very careful.”

“DON'T BOOK Booked a Northern Japan Luxury 4 star Small group tour with Luxury Escapes, only to find out on departure this tour had been subcontracted to Tomato Tours. On arrival we found out we were the only 2 people, Hotels changed to 3 star at best, 'guides' so called, have never been to the locations we visited dont know anything about Japan with very poor Japanese and English. Travelling by rented taxi to and from locations. Contact with Luxury Escapes when we call is very simpathic, but they don't call us back. NB: AUSTRALIANS NOT BOOK THIS TOUR WE FEEL ABANDED”

“Booked an all inclusive free flowing drinks package. On arrival at hotel we were informed wine was not included. Having booked a number of similar packages with wine we were surprised. Luxury Escapes actually LIED saying the fine print excluded wine. It does now but DID NOT when we booked. It was subsequently modified by adding an additional sentence after they were informed by the hotel. DONT TRUST THEM. 😩. They were not prepared to help or offer any recompense.”

“Wasn’t a Luxury Tour, stayed at better hostels than the hotels we were staying at. Tour very outdated and not current. Felt like I was on a year 6 school excursion again! No free time just stuck on a bus from 8am to 8pm, lunch and dinner was mostly at the Road side service stations. Customer service is even worse when trying to speak to a team member they say they are available to speak 24/7 but don’t respond back and if they do respond they advise they will be in contact shortly.”

“Booked an accommodation for Hoxton in DTLA, when we went to check in they told us they didn't receive any payments from Luxury Escapes so we had to make the payment again. On the listings, it also said breakfast bag was included but it wasn't communicated with the hotel so we ended up missing out. Tried contacting the support chat to resolve the issue but even though they said it was "escalated" I haven't heard anything back for 2 weeks.”

“Disappointing, the luxury escape 7 day package was not as portrayed on site. Room was equivalent to more a 2 star hotel than 5 star hotel. View was a galvanised roof and rubbish area,not even a glimpse of pool or ocean. Booked by my husband. Have photos but unable to upload.”

“This company is awful to deal with. I would not recommend them to anyone. They are difficult to contact, nobody seems to know what’s going on. Incompetence all round. Failed to book us on a direct flight from SA to VIC Falls so we ended up having a 1 1/2 hour travel time become a 6 hr one. We are booked to fly into one airport but itinerary says another airport so I have no idea if our transfer will be there. We haven’t been able to contact the on ground contact person for the entire 10 days we have been here. We have had to sort their incompetence out by ourselves even though we paid a premium for this trip. Spend you money elsewhere this company doesn’t deserve your custom. If I could do a NO star I would had to give it one star so I could review them”

“This company "sells" you a vacation package for cheap but doesn't explain that there are additional charges which are pretty high, such as resort fees, etc. It is not a deal. In addition, they overcharged me and I wrote and called several times and no return on the additional money paid. I couldn't even talk to a supervisor or anyone higher than the person that answers the phone. DO NOT PURCHASE OR BUY!!! Even complained to BBB and they don't respond.”

“This company is a scam, please be very careful and stay away. What you pay and book for is not always luxury. I booked a room via this website for 4 people and turned to be over the maximum allowed room capacity. Hotel was listed 5 star however it was equivalent to a 3 star motel.”

“They stopped caring if it meets the criteria for a luxury offering As a customer for over 5 years with numerous Luxury Escapes trips, this year's choice, Ayodya Resort Bali, has turned into a nightmare. The purported 5-star hotel falls short of even a 3-star rating. The all-inclusive package excludes a multitude of meals and drinks. The aged hotel exhibits poor service with impolite staff. The food quality is subpar, leading to food poisoning. It's disheartening to witness a holiday turn into a massive disappointment. It appears Luxury Escapes has ceased to care or check the quality of their partner packages.”

“Don't use this company. I entered the words resort in Florida and this came up. I had no idea I would need to investigate it to see if it's an actual resort. At the price, almost three grand for the week, I didn't question it before a resort. It's a hotel. The hotel actually agrees that I should get my money back for it being not what I expected and luxury escapes just wants to give me a credit even after refunding the hotel. I don't wish to use this company again and now I'm stuck. They should give you a refund if the venue is willing to refund. Actually had the hotel manager contact them to try to make it happen and they refuse to give me my money back. Horrible experience. I wanted to bring my new fiance to a resort as a Christmas present and they ruined my christmas.”

“I had a terrible experience. Their “free cancellation” is not free at all. In their website they say that it is full refund, but the insurance is not. And this is not clear on the website when you book your accommodation. I lost 500 dollars because of this. I don't recommend this website at all.”

“Booked a non refundable booking and found out not a week later that the hotel is offering the same for 2k cheaper. Best price guarantee was not applicable because 1. Non refundable booking - what ?!? 2. Only applies to NON Lux or ultra LUX collection - what?!? Totally understand if it’s a few hundred difference but 2k for a 7 night stay is just a joke.”

“I have not been on my trip yet but I am very disappointed with their customer service. I have sent them several emails, countless phone calls and received emails back from them advising that they will be in contact within 72 hours. My first contact with them was on 7 September 2023 and I still have not heard from them. My enquiry was a simple one and should have been answered within the 72 hours. Not happy Jan.

“Awful customer service, you have to call them every single day for a response, they never follow up, and they use many layers of third parties to book their reservations so they actually don’t have control over anything. I’ve never felt so much regret in my life for choosing this company. I’m out a great deal of money because of a family Emergency and all they’ve done is bring more stress to the situation. Avoid at all costs.”
