Granting access to some of the most exclusive homes and assets on the planet, Gilt Global, is something that little bit different. A members only club it offers its highly vetted members the opportunity to exchange their luxury homes or assets as part of a very prestigious rental exchange program, akin to Airbnb for millionaires!
Whether it’s a luxury villa in Monaco, a Scottish highland stately home, an opulent Courchevel ski chalet, a cool Brooklyn brownstone or a Mediterranean super-yacht or private jet, every featured property or asset on the Gilt Global’s ultra-prestigious list has been visited, profiled and approved by the brand’s team of highly-experienced luxury travel specialists. Ultimately this is about experiencing a property that would never come onto the rental market - exclusive, privately owned, off-the-radar homes and villas, unlikely to ever be found in conventional agency listings or on home-rental sites. Most people will never have the opportunity to set foot inside these homes, which affords highly privileged access to the Gilt Global’s members, who comprise a sophisticated and highly discerning group of successful individuals. They understand the issues and responsibilities faced by premium-property owners – because that is precisely what they are.
Gilt Global…. it’s not an agency or listings site, but a mindset – a private members club which enables people to swap, rent or swap and rent assets be it a villa, castle, private jet or super yacht. It works via a yearly fixed membership fee rather than commission payable per deal. Cash deals save members between 10% and 20% of gross price against similar propositions in the rental market place.
Gilt Global member does not require/nor is solely motivated by profit that could be generated from their asset, rather they utilise their asset to either fund other travel plans and/or create income in a controlled environment to cover running costs. Security and control are paramount to a Gilt Global member – they don’ want to have their assets splashed across the internet but want like-minded guests, someone who has a similar luxurious property and who will look after their property in a similar manner.
Membership to Gilt Global is flexible and tailored to its individual members’ requirements. There is no commission to pay and no agency fees, only an annual subscription. Whether they wish to arrange exchange stays in premium private accommodation when they travel or simply and safely rent their home to like-minded people, Gilt Global allows members to do so securely and with absolute confidence and peace of mind. Members communicate with each other via the club’s private messaging system, enabling easy, swift and direct negotiations and booking agreements. They can use this unique service exactly as they want – arranging direct property swaps or rental only. The service is as versatile as it is exclusive.
