ABOUT
Who We Are
We are a luxury travel retreat travel brand created to bring together women who share a passion for authentic adventure, cultural exchange, and meaningful connection.
At The Curated Escape, we believe travel is transformational: a catalyst for growth, new friendships, and lasting inspiration.
Our mission is simple: to create a warm, empowering space where women can explore the world boldly, connect deeply, and find their tribe.
What We Do
We curate intentional, culturally immersive travel experiences designed for those who seek more than just a vacation.
Our retreats blend adventure, luxury, and authentic connection - offering travelers a deeper understanding of the world, and of themselves.
Each journey is crafted with care, creating welcoming, all-inclusive environments where exploration leads to transformation.
The Founder
Discover Your Inner Explorer
I've always been drawn to the beauty of discovering new places, but becoming a mom gave that passion deeper meaning. I founded The Curated Escape to share my love of meaningful, culture-rich travel - and to create space for women to explore boldly, connect deeply, and experience the world with intention.
As a mom of two girls, I believe in raising global citizens. My daughters both had their first passports at just 3 months old, and every trip we take as a family - with my husband, Ron - reminds me how transformative travel can be. It breaks the monotony, strengthens bonds, and opens our hearts.
Some of our favorite destinations? Paris, South Africa, Cartagena, Amsterdam, and our second home - the Dominican Republic. These moments are why I do what I do: to help other women create memories that are beautiful, meaningful, and unforgettable.
