Meet your Advisor.
The travel advisor who
refuses to stop exploring.
I'm Danielle — founder of Salt + Sol Travel Co, luxury travel advisor, celiac disease warrior, certified Sandals and Beaches specialist, and someone who has been told more times than I can count that travel was going to get harder for me.
Spoiler: I'm still going. And I'm taking my clients with me.
MY STORY
It started with a diagnosis that almost took everything.
I've loved travel for as long as I can remember. The planning, the anticipation, the moment you land somewhere new and realize the world is so much bigger than your everyday life. Travel has always been my thing.
Then came my celiac disease diagnosis, and I genuinely thought it was over. Because travel — especially in the United States — revolves around food. Every celebration, every new destination, every resort experience is built around meals and dining. I was devastated.
"My first trip after my diagnosis was my honeymoon. I accidentally glutened myself on day one and spent the first night sick. There had to be a better way."
That experience lit a fire in me. I became obsessed with figuring out how to travel safely with celiac disease — which resorts actually take it seriously, which cruise lines have protocols that work, and how to communicate dietary needs in a way that actually gets heard. I turned my worst travel moment into expertise that now protects my clients every single trip.
STILL GOING
Then the diagnoses
kept coming.
This year brought new answers to questions I'd been asking my doctors for a long time. I was diagnosed with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome — a connective tissue disorder that affects my joints, causes chronic pain, and means my mobility will change as I get older. I also live with fibromyalgia, POTS, and AuDHD.
I won't sugarcoat it — there are days when that's a lot to carry. Knowing that my body has limitations, and that those limitations may grow over time, is genuinely hard to sit with when you still have so much of the world left to see.
But I made a decision: I am going to see as much of it as I possibly can, for as long as I possibly can. And I'm going to do it smart — pacing myself, planning carefully, and choosing trips that work for my body instead of fighting against it.
That decision changed how I advise my clients too. Because I know what it feels like to think travel isn't possible for you anymore. And I know that with the right planning, it almost always still is.
"I refuse to let my diagnoses write the end of my story. And if you're sitting there thinking yours might write yours — let's talk."
Whether you have celiac disease, a mobility condition, sensory needs, chronic pain, or you're just completely overwhelmed by the idea of planning a trip — you deserve a travel advisor who gets it from the inside out. That's me.
SANDALS & BEACHES
Your certified specialist for the world's best all-inclusive resorts.
Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts are two of the most recognized names in luxury all-inclusive travel — and for good reason. But knowing which property is right for YOUR trip is a whole different conversation, and that's where I come in.
As a certified Sandals and Beaches specialist, I know the difference between properties, room categories, and what the website photos don't tell you. I know which Sandals resort is best for a romantic couples escape, which Beaches property works best for families with kids, and how to get you the most out of your stay from the moment you arrive.
