Travel style

I adore boutique properties that combine great value with fantastic and unique experiences. I love to mix in enjoyable activities like wine tasting, bike tours, sunset catamarans, and helping differentiate which is a "must see" and a tourist trap.

Renée's reviews

Renee was fantastic! I can't express how much I appreciate her help with planning our trip. She was able to answer all of our questions (no matter how odd). Her hotel selection, trip itinerary, and tips made for smooth travel between cities and countries, which made our vacation that much better by being relatively stress-free. I will be recommending her services to everyone I know (and already have). Thank you so much!

Renee was a fantastic travel advisor. She listened to all of our needs, and she did her very best to fulfill them. The hotel options she provided were exactly what we were looking for, and she made sure each one was aware of our dietary restrictions. Renee is easy to get a hold of and work with. I look forward to working with her on any future trips I take.

This was my first time working with a travel agent and Renée made the experience wonderful 🙂 I especially appreciated her knowledge of Costa Rica in general and matching us with Rio Perdido given our preferences and limited time. We couldn't have asked for a better trip!

Would highly recommend working with Renée, doesn't matter if it's a 1 night hotel stay or a week long vacation.
