What is Resté Getaway For Women?
r.e.a.c.h.
For Your Dreams with Once-In-A-Lifetime
Luxury Vacations
For WOMEN Only!
RESTÉ GETAWAYS FOR WOMEN are custom curated luxury inclusive vacations created for women by women!
Once-in-a-lifetime may seem a bit cliché, however we mean it in the most literal sense as we visit each getaway destination ONE TIME ONLY! There are too many incredible places to see in this big world to keep revisiting the same spot, so we aim to create uniquely unforgettable experiences featuring all the best highlights of the region within R.E.A.C.H. goals!
Resté is not a travel booking agency, but rather a boutique experience curation company. We only offer a handful of specifically planned events created for our travelers annually.
Find out more about who we are and what R.E.A.C.H. means to us and our criteria for creating the most perfect Getaways!

Why Choose Resté?
Our Motto is to r.e.a.c.h. for your dreams but what does that really mean to us?
Relaxation
Exploration
Animals
Culture
Healing
We use the word R.E.A.C.H. as an acronym representing five important aspects of any Resté Getaway that we aim
to include in each of our uniquely curated experiences. Having the opportunity to include each of these is paramount in deciding whether this is a location we wish to offer our travelers.
Aside from creating a getaway that includes R.E.A.C.H we also consider other various factors including:
*We cannot guarantee or promise that our vacations will be fully accessible as there are not many countries that adhere to laws such as the ADA Requirements that are enforced across most of the United States & some other Western nations., but with our own physical limitations in mind we do our best to find the least dangerous or physically demanding itinerary & host venues.

Healing, art & relaxation are her greatest joys in life.
René had not traveled much prior to her relationship with Celeste, however that quickly changed. Although reluctant at first, she soon fell in love with various forms of traveling around the world.

Charleston, South Carolina
I travelled to Costa Rica with Resté in May. I experienced a once in a lifetime opportunity to embrace the beauty of the country in a stunning boutique hotel set in the jungle. Celeste & René provided organized adventures, delicious local fare, and entertainment in the evenings. I travelled solo, but never felt alone. I made friendships that will last a lifetime, and plan to book my future getaways with Reste!
Definitely 5+ stars! - Jen M.
Madison, Wisconsin
I was one of the few lucky women to join Resté Getaway for Women on their maiden adventure to Costa Rica. This is THE best vacation I have ever experienced. The resort accommodations were 5 star along with their locally sourced menu. Resté had arranged for a diverse group of excursions that really helped one experience the flavor of the region and most were included in the price. Most importantly, at least for me, this vacation was centered around health and wellness in a safe, all inclusive environment. I have made new friends that I will have for life. I have already signed up for my next adventure with Celeste and Rene as we are going to Bali in October of 2024. I can't wait! - Gina L.
Escondido, California
Highly recommend considering and booking your next vacation with Resté Getaway For Women Travel! Just returned from their Costa Rica vacation and it was fantastic. Celeste Barbier and René Cosby really set the tone for a very friendly, positive, healthy-minded group of women to meet and spend the week participating in so many unique and fun things, including Celeste singing for us. They really put a lot of thought into selecting the places, activities, excursions and meeting local people. Talking with another traveler, we agreed that we felt like we made many new friends and in a safe space. - Leslie K.

I went on my first Resté Getaway with an open-mind & no expectations. I allowed myself to feel and experience this energy of love & healing that I really needed. I felt the presence of the universe cleansing my soul & healed my broken heart from the passing of my mother. With all of the beautiful energy of the women, love of Celeste & cacao facilitator, Andrea I was able to let go of my mother so she could enter the kingdom of the heavens. My heart was full of & happiness. I will continue to travel again with Resté Getaway For Women. I had an AMAZING experience with the women and the whole trip was phenomenal. Jeannie V.
