About

Ed Elliott is an independent travel advisor based in London, Ontario, Canada, specializing in all-inclusive resort experiences in Havana, Cuba — a destination he knows not just from research, but from personal discovery. Ed works with solo travelers and couples who are ready to truly disconnect, recharge, and return to their lives feeling like themselves again. In a travel market full of generalists, Ed brings a rare, firsthand focus on one of the most misunderstood and underrated destinations in the Caribbean.

Ed's expertise centers on Havana-area all-inclusive resorts, a niche that remains underserved by most North American travel advisors. For Canadian travelers in particular, Cuba has long been a natural escape — and Ed understands both the destination and the mindset of the traveler who chooses it. His approach is built around listening first: before any resort is recommended, he takes the time to understand who his client really is and what they genuinely need from a trip. The result is a travel experience shaped around a real person, not a package.

Ed's path to travel advising began with a single trip to Havana that changed everything. A former Walmart associate who went to Cuba with modest expectations, he was won over on the very first night — by a sunset over Havana that he still thinks about today. That moment of unexpected wonder became the foundation of his entire philosophy: that the best travel experiences are the ones that surprise you, that ask nothing of you, and that quietly restore something you didn't know you'd lost. As Ed puts it, the goal of a great trip is simple — you unwind, you recharge, and you come back to the rest of your life ready to go.

Now building his client roster from the ground up, Ed is bringing the same candid, unhurried approach that has already resonated with the travelers he's begun working with. Early clients have responded warmly to his personalized style and genuine investment in getting the experience right. Ed Elliott is the advisor for travelers who want someone who actually gets it — because he's felt it himself, on a Havana rooftop, watching the sky turn colors.
