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

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!
