Why hosts choose Sundes:
Preferred guests
The majority of our guests are mature, with an average age of 50 and household income of USD$170k.
More bookings
Our guests rarely use mass market platforms like Airbnb, so you can stay on other platforms and benefit from higher-value bookings too, reaching other guests – our average booking value is 2 times higher than that of the main platforms.
Increased nightly rates
With more demand, you can increase your nightly rates across all platforms.
More profitable bookings
Our guests prefer longer bookings (2x the length of mainstream platforms), which results in improved margins by reducing your changeover costs.
Real human help
You can call us any time and speak to someone directly in our office whenever you need or on WhatsApp. No bots or call centres.
3 simple steps to a Sundes Nomination
Register your interest by submitting the form and we will be in touch to discuss your home. Our team then carefully reviews all the information to determine if your home could qualify for nomination.
If your home is nominated, we will approve your profile so you can receive bookings.
Once you receive your first booking, we’ll send a Home Critic to test your home. If you pass our Home Test, and delight a Sundes guest, you’ll win a Sundes Award, unlocking the premium bookings and benefits your home deserves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Sundes?
Sundes is a curated marketplace of the world’s best vacation homes. Sundes is for hosts what the Financial Times is for books, or what the Michelin Star is for restaurants. Hosts with the Sundes approval mark see an increase in their bookings across all platforms.
How are you different from other platforms like Airbnb?
We are selective and we look at our portfolio as a collection instead of a subscription-based list. We specialize in selling to guests who don’t use mainstream platforms to book homestays. Our guests are more mature, with an average age of 55. They tend to make higher value bookings with longer stays.
Who can win the Sundes Award?
Every Sundes award winner has delivered a great guest experience that we can personally validate, and has passed the Sundes Home Test, conducted by a Home Critic against 150 different criteria.
What is the Sundes Test?
The Sundes Test has been formulated by a team of hospitality experts. Our Home Critics consider 150 different criteria and gather more than 500 data points. This gives our guest confidence they will have a great experience.
How much should I charge for my listing?
Your pricing decisions are up to you. If you are unsure, we would recommend looking at similarly sized properties in the area and using these as guidelines.
What are Sundes fees?
Once you receive a reservation, we charge a Sundes Host Fee of 3% of the total accommodation charges plus any applicable local and sales taxes. That includes management support on images, availability calendar, prices, bookings, payments and guest’s relation.
How does Sundes work with me and my guests?
Our owner experience team provides you with all the necessary tools to succeed. They are available to help with any questions you may have and offer suggestions on how to improve opportunities for your property.
Our team of Home Specialists carefully combines each guest with the destination and the property that best suits their needs. When a guest selects your house, simply confirm the reservation and send the invoice to the guest from your property profile and we will do the rest. We will coordinate all documentation and secure payments with the guest. We will keep you informed at each stage of the process and we will make sure you receive payment for each reservation before the date of the trip.
Guests are assigned a personal Home Specialist, who will be in contact with the concierge of your house, planning and communicating all the details prior to the arrival of the guest. We keep in touch with our clients, as they travel to their destination and during their stay, we also provide them with additional assistance in case they require it, or you require it.
