About
Over 15 years of travel planning experience. Nashville-based, but most likely somewhere else as we speak.
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.

Huge thank you to Renee for putting together such an amazing trip for me & my wife! Her input and recommendations helped us avoid option-overload, and we were able to truly relax knowing all the little details were taken care of. She was a delight to work with, can’t wait till next time!

Never have received this level of service before! Renee was extremely attentive, detail-oriented and responsive. She provided the most amazing rundown of hotel and package options creating a unique Google Doc that highlighted pricing, amenities and upgrades, as well as synopses on why the different venues may meet our needs. We adjusted dates and price ranges several times and she always accommodated us quickly, providing ideas, recommendations and options that could work. She answered our many questions as quickly and in depth as possible. And ultimately the vacation went off without a hitch - no surprises or gaps of information; we had a great time and were well prepared with everything we needed! Can't wait to do it again.

Renee was hands down my saving grace in planning this trip! We started early and she was there for me every step of the way (including day of travel!). She listened to what I wanted and was looking for, learned to understand my vision and presented me with so many great options to research and drill down. She was so great about accommodating my budget, my travel desires and communication needs. Once we found "the one" she literally took the reins and did EVERYTHING. This was truly a love language for me, as I am not organized. She did all the booking, gathering of info, communication with all parties involved, and kept all my guests in the loop about everything. She was quick to respond, never pushed anything on me too hard, always listened to me and answered my questions, and did so in a fun and professional manner. She's my go to for travel ALWAYS and she knows her stuff. And some of the folks on my birthday trip are now using Renee to help plan future anniversary trips for them! Could not recommend more!
