Welcome to Wanderlust Escapes Travel - I’m so excited you’re here and even more excited to help you plan your next unforgettable getaway. Whether you're dreaming of a luxury escape, a sun-soaked adults-only resort, an unforgettable group adventure, or a romantic destination wedding, I’ve got you covered.
As your travel advisor, my goal is to take the stress off your shoulders so you can focus on what matters most: relaxing, connecting, and truly enjoying the experience. Here's a little insight into how I work and what you can expect when we plan your journey together:
Pricing:
Vacation package prices can shift until a deposit is made. Before we lock anything in, I’ll make sure you’re getting the best available rate. If the supplier offers price matching, I’ll handle that for you too—so you can feel confident you're getting the most value for your investment.
Booking Process:
Once you’ve chosen your resort, cruise, or destination, I’ll create a detailed proposal outlining your travel options. After you’ve reviewed and approved the proposal, I’ll send an invoice for your selected package. Once payment is authorized, your reservation will be secured.
Please note that prices and availability can change until the booking is finalized. While images are a helpful reference, actual rooms and accommodations may vary in layout and design.
Free Service:
Planning your vacation with Wanderlust Escapes Travel is completely complimentary for individual trips - I’m paid by the travel supplier after your journey is complete. That means you get personalized, concierge-level support at no extra cost to you. I do ask that you reach out when you’re ready to move forward with planning, since I dedicate personal time and attention to each traveler’s experience.
Planning Fees for Groups & Weddings:
For group travel and destination weddings, a non-refundable planning fee applies. This allows me to provide elevated support, personalized coordination, and dedicated service from start to finish. If your group moves forward with travel, the fee will be applied toward the lead traveler’s reservation.
Stress-Free Planning:
When you travel with Wanderlust Escapes Travel, you’ll receive all essential trip details - flights, transfers, special requirements for international travel, and more - so you can feel completely prepared and confident. My goal is to handle the logistics so you can focus on enjoying every moment.
So, what are you waiting for? Life is short. Let’s plan something incredible.
Cheers,

"The Trip was FABULOUS! Women's Retreat as a Culmination for '2024 Women's Wellness Activities! It's the AGENT for ME!! Organized, Professional, Informative and Flexible! ... and of course, Jamaica Embraced Us All!"
"The BEST way to enter into my 30’s!
Big shoutout to Wanderlust Escapes Travel for helping me bring in 30 in Aruba. From beginning to end and everything in between, Kareena made sure I didn’t have to worry about anything but enjoying my birthday. Even when life started life’s, she had every detail of the trip together to help give me a peace of mind. While on the trip, she was just a text/facetime away to answer any questions and help clarify things. 10/10 Highly recommend! Thank you again!"
"My experience was absolutely phenomenal!!! We were able to relax and enjoy some much needed time on this beautiful resort. Kareena made sure we had everything we needed! She was also able to complete everything I needed while maintaining the element of surprise for my boyfriend (it was his surprise birthday trip). I am extremely appreciative of her attention to detail, fast responses, and creative ideas/additions. I will be booking through Kareena at Wanderlust Escapes again!!!"
Kareena was amazing. My friends and I were discussing a few places that we wanted to go but did not know where to start. Kareena asked us what vibe we were going for, and we gave her some nonnegotiable things for the resort. We wanted an all inclusive, adults only resort. We shared our budget and came through. Within 24 hours, she provided us with a few options, and we immediately booked. She handled insurance, flights, and excursions. She also had an app that had all of our trip information and uploaded all documents that we needed for the trip. everything was smooth and organized for us. Kareena was even available during the trip to handle anything that we needed. We are already discussing our next trip.
Kareena is fantastic! She is warm and authentically invested in the entire process. I am a novice traveler so I appreciate all of her patience and willingness to help me understand the beautiful travel experience. She answers all of my questions and works to get me the best deal according to my budget. My husband and I just returned for our first cruise and because of Kareena it was the best experience EVER!
"Trip was jammed back with all day activities. Next time I will go at a slower more casual pace. Overall great trip with a great travel consultant. She was thorough and we had our transportation arranged so we didn't have to worry about getting around. Will definitely be using Wanderlust Travels again as my hubs and I travel quite a bit and we love going places that the average person doesn't think about. Again, great travel consultant that gave us what we asked for and more."
"Let me tell y’all about this Diva! A few months ago during one of our monthly dinner dates that we’ve had for YEARS…I told her how my daughter (Soror) wanted to do something special but something that caters to me for my bday because the pandemic robbed me of that luxury. Wanderlust Escapes took heed to my request and went above and beyond our expectations. The amount of time, care, forward thinking and professionalism that was put into our travels has far exceeded any vacation I’ve been on thus far. If you haven’t already…book with Kareena and her company TODAY. Thank you Soror/Diva…let’s get to planning my next adventure."
