Jenni Taffe is an accomplished interior designer and the visionary founder of Vacation House, known for creating vacation rentals that blend comfort, sophistication, and soul. Every home she designs is more than a stay — it’s an experience.
A lifelong explorer, Jenni has traveled the world with her husband, professional hockey player Jeff Taffe, and their twins, Georgia and Walker. Their family has lived in destinations as varied as New York, California, Florida, Arizona, Minnesota, Sweden, Switzerland, Russia, and Slovakia — and in each place, Jenni has gathered inspiration, textures, and stories that influence her work today.
Raised under the California sun, Jenni’s aesthetic is rooted in natural light, organic materials, and an effortless sense of balance. She brings together coastal calm, vintage character, and modern refinement to create spaces that feel timeless yet deeply personal.
With an extensive background designing homes, hotels, and restaurants, Jenni’s expertise in hospitality design sets Vacation House apart. Each property is thoughtfully curated — from the art on the walls to the linens on the beds — to evoke the feeling of your favorite getaway while still feeling like home.
Whether by the beach, in the mountains, or in the heart of a city, every Vacation House is tailored to its surroundings, reflecting the beauty and rhythm of its location. Jenni’s philosophy is simple:
Design with intention, live beautifully, and create spaces where people can truly connect.
Through her work, Jenni invites guests to slow down, savor the moment, and make memories that linger long after check-out.
