One price, every fee in it
Booking sites add resort fees and “taxes and fees” on the last screen.

Same price. More trip. A person who answers.
LUXE is a travel advisory. You find a place here, an advisor books it for you, and the hotel pays us a commission, so your rate is the public one or lower and there’s no fee on top.

How the money works
No hidden fees in either direction.
Hotels, cruise lines and tour operators pay advisors a commission, the same way they pay booking sites. That’s how LUXE is paid. Your nightly rate is the hotel’s public rate or a better one we’ve negotiated, never a marked-up one.
Booking through an advisor at partner hotels adds perks the hotel provides: breakfast for two each day, a property credit, and an upgrade, early check-in and late checkout when available. On a five-night stay those are worth about $400, valuing breakfast at $60 a day and the credit at $100.
Some tour links on destination pages may earn us a referral fee from the tour company. It never changes what you pay.

What we refuse to do
The most common complaints about booking sites, and the rule we follow instead.
No fake urgency
Countdown timers and “1 room left” banners push you to book before you’ve decided.
No timers, no scarcity banners. If a room is genuinely tight, your advisor tells you.

When something breaks, the site blames the hotel and the hotel says you aren’t their customer.

Does it cost more to book through LUXE?
No. You pay the hotel's public rate or less. Hotels pay us a commission from their side, the way they pay booking sites, so there's no booking fee for you.
What perks do I get?
At partner hotels: daily breakfast for two, a property credit (usually $100), an upgrade on arrival when available, and early check-in and late checkout when available. The exact package depends on the hotel, and your quote lists it.
Can you beat Expedia's price?
Usually we match it, because hotels set the same public rate everywhere. What we add is the perks, which on a five-night stay are typically worth several hundred dollars, plus a person who handles changes. When we can get a lower rate, we do.
How fast will I hear back?
Within one business day, with live availability and an all-in price. Nothing is booked or charged until you approve the quote.
Is the AI making my bookings?
No. AI helps you explore and drafts ideas. A person checks availability, confirms entry rules and books everything.
