Hi, I’m Renee.

I created Away & Abroad Travel for people who want more than a reservation. They want a vacation that reflects their personality, priorities and reason for getting away.

My approach blends attentive service, honest guidance and a love for experiences that restore, excite and connect us. Whether you are celebrating love, planning your first cruise, gathering your favorite people or simply craving a reset, I help turn the idea into a journey that feels completely yours.

With more than two decades in customer service and hospitality, I know that the smallest details often make the biggest difference.
