The Heart Behind the Brand

Signature Travel Network advisor - Ciara Read; Hawaii travel expert; The Woodlands, TX

I created Salt + Serenity Travel with one goal: to design escapes that feel effortless, elevated, and deeply personal.

With a background in business and years of experience planning high-end getaways, I specialize in destinations that feel like a true reset—Hawaii, the South Pacific, and beach retreats around the world. My clients are busy professionals who want travel that feels custom, seamless, and cared for from start to finish.

I’m an independent affiliate of Exemplary Travel Advisors, which operates under the respected host agency Oasis Travel Network, and is part of the luxury consortia Signature Travel Network. This affiliation gives me access to exclusive perks, top-tier global partners, and industry-leading support—all of which I pass along to my clients.

I’ve earned certifications as a Hawaii Destination Expert through the Hawaii Visitors & Convention Bureau, and I’ve completed specialist training with Tourism Fiji and Tahiti Tourisme, amongst many others. I’m also a proud member of ASTA (American Society of Travel Advisors) and CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association).

Whether you’re dreaming of a wellness retreat, a honeymoon, or an unforgettable family escape, I take care of the details—so all you have to do is show up and savor the experience.

When you’re ready to turn travel dreams into something beautifully real, I’d love to help make it happen.
