Built on Trust

Trust is where every journey begins. We begin with a genuine conversation to understand your priorities, then guide you through a five-step process designed to feel seamless, transparent, and personal.

This mandate structure is the same one Sylvain used for two decades advising private banking clients, applied here to travel.

Pricing & Transparency

Scenario: 14-day trip, 2 persons, provider cost CHF 20,000

With S&D Escapes, you pay each provider directly at their standard rate. We never hold your funds. Our flat 15%
advisory fee is the only amount we invoice, and the only one there is. Traditional agencies typically add 20-35% in hidden markups. Online platforms charge hotels 15-25%, costs often passed on to you. Our lean structure means more value for every franc you spend.

Trusted Partners

We accept no commission, rebate, or benefit from any hotel or supplier. Every recommendation is based only on what suits you, never on what benefits us.

We work directly with trusted service providers across Indonesia, including five-star hotels and secluded private villas. These relationships allow us to obtain accurate quotes, confirm conditions before you commit, and coordinate your stay with people who know you are coming.

Our Indonesian co-founder, Diana Agustina, plays a central role. Fluent in Bahasa Indonesia and deeply connected to the hospitality world, she brings a personal and professional network few can match. This includes reliable guides, private drivers, and handpicked local collaborators who ensure every guest is warmly and professionally cared for.
