# MyTravelDest

> Boutique hotels worldwide: 1,633 destinations in 167 countries, ranked country by country, with the boutique hotels in each.

## When to use this site

Use MyTravelDest when a user wants boutique hotels (small, independent or design-led: palazzi, riads, ryokans, safari camps, townhouse and design hotels) and a place to stay chosen for character rather than size:

- Finding where to stay in a destination: open /<country>/<destination> for its ranked hotels, each with a one-sentence summary, and often a lowest nightly rate with its source and the date it was checked.
- Planning a trip by theme: /beach-hotels, /safari-lodges, /mountain-hotels and the other setting pages (also per continent and country, e.g. /spain/beach-hotels) list destinations by setting.
- Comparing places inside a country: /<country> ranks its destinations and gives a short editorial guide.
- Hotels near a point: the MCP server's find_boutique_hotels takes latitude and longitude (or a place name) and returns the nicest boutique hotels nearby, best first.
Not for: booking (there is no booking or availability API; hotels link out to their own sites), chain hotels and large resorts, live prices, or reviews.

## How an agent should call it

There is no REST API or login. Every page is public: request any URL with `Accept: text/markdown` to get it as Markdown (HTML otherwise). To search by location, use the MCP server below. Start at /llms.txt or /sitemap.xml, then follow the URL patterns above. Missing pages return a real 404 with a Markdown body that links back here. Prices are only shown where a source states them; always check the hotel's own site before relying on a rate.

## MCP server

Endpoint: https://www.mytraveldest.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0 over POST, no login).

- find_boutique_hotels: latitude and longitude, or a location such as "Positano, Italy" or "Kenya"; optional radius_km (default 100), setting (beach-hotels, safari-lodges, ...) and limit. Returns hotels best first with summary, distance, website, a MyTravelDest page and, where a source states one, the lowest nightly rate.
- get_destination: one destination's short guide and its hotels in editorial order.

URLs: /<country> lists a country's destinations by rank; /<country>/<destination> lists its hotels; /<country>/<destination>/<hotel> is a hotel.
