The Ānanda Group · About

A private concierge for journeys that matter.

We are a small group, obsessed with getting the next step right — whether that step is a villa on Lake Como, a Grade 9 place in Boston, or a room that finally feels like yours.

Ānanda

(n., Sanskrit) /ɑː.nən.də/ — bliss and happiness.

Group

Three houses, one concierge. A journey of purpose — not just movement, but a passage toward discovery. Of a country, a decade, or a room.

Who we are

Profound joy, taken as a practice.

The Ānanda Group is a private concierge behind three houses. Ānanda Voyage crafts bespoke, private itineraries — hotel partnerships, transfers, the unglamorous work that makes a trip feel inevitable. Ānanda Academy sits with families and walks three CATS Global Schools routes until the file can be read. Ānanda Home writes a style, and a space, for wherever you are.

We are not a portal, and we are not a school. We are the concierge before either. Hong Kong, London and Vancouver. Local enough to know the year a student is actually in; global enough to hold eighty countries and a Boston diploma in the same week.

What we believe

The work was walked first.

The founder lives between Hong Kong, London and Vancouver.

They walked UK education from the inside — prep, GCSE, A-level, a Foundation year, then a top-tier university. They have taught, and represented UK universities in arts and design across Central and East Asia.

They worked for an international hotel group with more than forty hotels and residences across Asia, Europe, North America, Australasia and the Middle East, and became a certified Virtuoso agent and itinerary planner.

They hold a degree in architecture from Central Saint Martins. They have worked as an interior designer and decorator, with a particular eye for dated rooms — returned to a space one actually wants to keep.

We believe the next step should be a decision, not a leap. The three houses come from that life.

Three cities

Where the conversation sits.

A private lounge overlooking Hong Kong harbour at dusk

Hong Kong

Where most of our families begin — a first concierge conversation that can hold a villa, a Boston diploma, or a room that finally feels like yours.

A quiet London garden square of cream Georgian townhouses

London

Close to UAL, the offers, and the interviews. A short train from Cambridge; a conversation that also holds the next journey, and the next interior.

A glass house overlooking Vancouver mountains and water

Vancouver

Pacific families looking at a US diploma, a UK arts year, a private itinerary, or a space written from afar — without starting from a blank map.
