User-submitted travel reviews make planning your next gluten-free trip quick and easy

About Us

How Have We Survived Without a Website Like This?

The idea for GlutenFreeTravelSite.com germinated in the Spring of 2007 when Founder Karen Broussard took a trip to the Caribbean with her family.

She and her family had a fairly positive experience at their Caribbean resort. But despite the kitchen staff’s eagerness to accommodate her 4-year old son’s gluten-free diet, there was certainly room for improvement and things she’d do differently next time.

It got her to thinking...

Wouldn’t it be great to be able to share our experience with others on gluten-free diets who love to travel? And wouldn’t it be nice, before planning our next trip, to be able to learn of good gluten-free dining experiences others have had at hotels and restaurants around the world?

After all, there’s nothing better than a vacation where you can leave the cooking to someone else – and never worry that your food will be safe.

Thus, the idea for GlutenFreeTravelSite.com was born.

GlutenFreeTravelSite.com Will Help You
Truly Relax and Enjoy Your Vacation!

Our mission is simple: To give you a vacation from worry. We want you to realize that, just because you or a loved one has Celiac Disease, you don’t have to give up travel. You don’t have to give up delicious foods. And you don’t have to make yourself crazy doing all your own research and legwork before taking a trip.

What Makes Us Unique:

We are focused exclusively on gluten-free travel reviews, providing Celiacs with a way to share specifics of their own travel experiences – and to get advice from other people on gluten-free diets. What we don’t do is cover an exhaustive list of other topics relevant to the Celiac community – there are so many other great websites that already do this (and we feature many on our resource page and throughout our site).

We are a well-organized place to go for the gluten-free travel reviews you’re looking for. There’s no time wasted reading blogs or postings on Celiac message boards, hoping to find the information that’s relevant to you. The reviews and feedback you want are all available with a simple click on a specific geographic area.

We give you personal, unedited* reviews from other people on gluten-free diets – in their own words. Rather than simply providing you with a list of certain “approved” hotels and restaurants, we post the detailed accounts other people have written about places they’ve actually stayed and dined. They’ll give you the names of chefs that helped them, favorite gluten-free meals, suggestions about foods you may want to bring from home, and other invaluable tips and advice you can only get from reading first-hand accounts.

*Reviews may be edited to remove offensive, incoherent, out-of-date or irrelevant material.

We want to be the premiere travel site where people in the Celiac community will go before planning any trip (and after they return) – whether it’s a quick weekend getaway, an overseas family vacation or monthly business trip.

With the technology available on GlutenFreeTravelSite.com, you instantly tap into the ever-growing network of other people on gluten-free diets who love to travel – and who can help guide you to the most accommodating places to stay, dine, and shop. Reviews are organized geographically so that you can quickly narrow your search and avoid reading irrelevant reviews.

With growing awareness of Celiac Disease, more and more people are getting properly diagnosed every day. According to statistics, we are a community that will one day be three million strong – just in the U.S alone. That’s a powerful lobbying force!

And indeed, we want to be a powerful force encouraging all the world’s hotels, resorts, and restaurants to develop delicious gluten-free menu options. We’d also like to be a driving force in negotiating special deals for visitors to our site. Visit the Travel Resources page for special offers from some of our sponsors.
