Women Love Travel
Women Love Travel™ is a travel site for women who want more from their journeys. We go beyond checklists and hotel lobbies to find the stories that make a place unforgettable: the chef cooking with grandmother's recipes, the guide protecting a reef, the retreat that changes how you sleep, eat and think.
Launched in May 2025, Women Love Travel is part of the Women Love Network™. The network's roots go back to Women Love Tech, founded in 2011, and it also includes Women Love Wellness™, The Carousel™ and Game Changers™. Founder Robyn Foyster, former Editor-in-Chief of The Australian Women's Weekly, brings more than four decades of storytelling to every destination we cover.
Our writers include award-winning journalists, destination specialists and Lonely Planet contributors. They travel widely across Australia, the Pacific, Asia and beyond, with a focus on luxury and boutique stays, wellness retreats, food, culture, adventure and sustainable travel. We favour ethical operators, local voices and experiences that give back.
Whether you're planning a solo escape, a girls' getaway or the trip of a lifetime, Women Love Travel brings you insider access, honest reviews and the inspiration to go.
