Carmen was very responsive, and more then willing to accommodate! We arrived to the beautiful Wanderlust to a clean quiet place to enjoy our get away, which is exactly what we needed! There were even gingerbread man dog biscuits for our pup Hudson! It was a surprise getaway for my girls 37th birthday, and it didn't disappoint! We would definitely go back or book with Carmen if she has any other properties! Thanks for allowing us to enjoy the beautiful Wanderlust!

We had a wonderful stay at Wanderlust. The home was as described and as displayed in the pictures. The host was very responsive. Loved that we were able to take our two dogs as well. Just wish we would have had more time there … our only regret. We’ll have to come back!
