Airbnb Luxe
About
Airbnb Luxe is the ultra-premium tier of Airbnb, Inc., the online marketplace for short-term vacation rentals and travel experiences founded in 2008 by Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nathan Blecharczyk in San Francisco, California. Airbnb Luxe was launched in 2019, incorporating the luxury property portfolio that Airbnb acquired when it purchased Luxury Retreats, a Montreal-based luxury villa rental company, in 2017.
Airbnb Luxe properties are individually inspected and must meet a detailed quality standard encompassing over 300 criteria related to design, amenities, location, and condition. Properties in the Luxe collection include private villas, estates, chalets, and penthouses in destinations worldwide, ranging from Caribbean beachfronts and Mediterranean coastlines to Alpine ski resorts and tropical islands. Many listings include features such as private pools, home theaters, wine cellars, full-service kitchens, and direct beach or waterfront access.
Each Airbnb Luxe booking includes a dedicated trip designer who assists with pre-arrival planning and can arrange ancillary services such as private chefs, guided excursions, spa treatments, airport transfers, and grocery provisioning. This concierge-style service layer distinguishes Luxe from standard Airbnb bookings.
Airbnb is publicly listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange. The Luxe tier represents a small fraction of Airbnb's total listing inventory but targets the high-end vacation rental market. Nightly rates for Luxe properties typically start in the hundreds of dollars and can exceed tens of thousands of dollars per night for the largest estates. Properties are located across North America, Europe, the Caribbean, Asia, Africa, and Oceania.
