Travel style
Former solo hostel backpacker turned unique boutique adventurer. Being close to any type of water and mountains brings my soul to life. Every trip I take consists of activities, me time, local beverages and food and a unique place to stay. From group travel for weddings, birthdays or companies to family and couples, I enjoy creating transformative moments of connection with one another and the destination.

Taylor's reviews
Taylor was awesome! She called the resort directly and got them to price match a lower rate we found online. We appreciated the early check-in and we didn't need a late check-out based on our flight time, but it was nice to have that option.

Booked travel to Playa del Carmen
- October 2023
Taylor went above and beyond to give us the best experience possible. She was easy to get ahold of, asked the right questions, provided us with multiple options, and followed up with us! When things didn’t go as planned (due to the unforeseen disasters in Maui), she helped us through it all and even reached out to the property to get us our requested refund. She is incredibly organized and really knows her stuff. Taylor was a pleasure to work with any we will be using her again to book our next family vacay!
