Las Vegas, Cosmo Style!
Reviewed By Carrie - Phoenix, AZ. | Traveled to Las Vegas | Nevada | USA
My boyfriend and I just got back from the perfect weekend getaway to Las Vegas, and it was all thanks to Renee. We wanted to stay at The Cosmopolitan; she booked us an upgraded room, which was hands-down the best choice. From the balcony views to the rooftop pool, the hotel totally set the mood for a fun-filled escape. Renee also gave us a custom weekend guide with recommendations for restaurants, shows, and nightlife, tailored to our style. We caught a killer Cirque du Soleil show, had an unforgettable dinner at STK, and even snuck in a couples massage at the spa. It was such a refreshing break from our fast paced work life, and we can’t wait to go back, thanks to Renee!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Charleston Charm & Golf!
Reviewed By Elizabeth - Los Angeles, CA. | Traveled to Charleston | South Carolina | USA
Renee planned a great golf trip in Charleston for me and my husband. She booked us a super cute inn near the Historic District and set up tee times at two beautiful courses, including one with amazing ocean views. Between rounds, we explored the city, enjoyed great food, and even caught a sunset harbor cruise. We loved not having to spend our time booking the trip on several different websites; we felt spoiled having Renee handle everything. She treated us like friends and was a joy to work with. We can’t wait to plan our next trip with her!

Maui Family Vacay
Reviewed By Bryan - Dallas, TX | Traveled to Maui Island | Hawaii | USA
Our family trip to Maui was a dream. Renee built an itinerary that gave us a perfect mix of adventure and downtime. We snorkeled, took a scenic drive and still had plenty of time to relax on the beach. Renee also booked us a luau that our teens actually loved, and bragged about to all their friends. The whole trip felt easy, fun, and super well-paced. Renee’s attention to detail is great; she even surprised us with a little gift in our room when we checked-in. We will definitely be back next year! Thank you so much, Renee!

Girls Trip, Country Style!
Reviewed By Brittani - Los Angeles, CA | Traveled to Nashville | Tennessee | USA
Renee helped plan an unforgettable girls’ trip to Nashville for me and three of my friends flying in from Los Angeles. She booked us at a stylish boutique hotel in The Gulch—great location, IG worthy, and close to everything. From airport transfers to dinner reservations & exciting nightlife, everything was organized and easy. She even worked in time for a mural photo tour and a spa morning, which made the weekend feel like the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. We’ll 100% be booking with her again!

Napa Valley - Lux Vibes
Reviewed By Cassie - Denver, CO | Traveled to Napa Valley | California | USA
My husband and I wanted a relaxing weekend away from the hustle, and Renee planned the most beautiful trip to Napa Valley for us. She arranged everything; flights from Denver to San Francisco, a rental car for the scenic drive into wine country, and a 3-night stay at the elegant Auberge du Soleil. The moment we arrived, it was a next level experience. With the rolling vineyards, fresh air, and VIP treatment, it was the perfect balance of luxury and tranquility. Renee mapped out wine tastings at a few of the best spots, including Castello di Amorosa and Domaine Carneros, and even got us a lunch reservation at a vineyard with vineyard views to die for. From the charming towns to the cozy resort spa, every moment felt intentional and stress-free. We didn’t have to plan a thing. It was a quick trip for us, but will forever be one of our favorites. Can’t wait to do it again!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
