Exclusive to Luke Stays - including I-PRAC approval and many other benefits to protect you when you directly book with us.

Stay Cover

Claim these exciting extras when booking direct with us

Lowest Rates

You’ll only claim our best, discounted rates when you book direct. These lowest rates don’t apply when you book via Airbnb.

I-PRAC Approval

Our accreditation means your transactions and payments are 100% protected - or your money back, when you book direct.

Flexible Booking

We don’t share all our best dates and properties with Airbnb -book directly for the best options available to you.

Early Check In

Simply let us know when you’re thinking of checking-in after you book direct, and we’ll make it work for you.

Late Check Out

How does an extra half hour in bed sound? Enjoy the luxury of later check-outs when you book direct.

Tailored Service

You won’t receive the same 1-2-1 communication when you book via Airbnb. Booking direct means we’ll always be at hand to help you, during your stay.

Here’s why you can trust us, and regain total peace of mind.

You deserve complete peace of mind when booking a short-term rental stay.

The trouble is, this peace of mind isn’t guaranteed by even the biggest OTAs such as Airbnb and Booking.com. Did you know that when you book with one of these platforms your money and security isnever100% protected?

However, at Luke Stays we 100% protect your transactions and security; and guarantee professional standards - thanks to our I-PRAC Approval.

The company’s I-PRAC verification process involves a long and meticulous process - and at Luke Stays, we’ve invested the time and money to give you this peace of mind.

So, when you book one of our properties at Luke Stays you can do so knowing that it is entirely risk free (or we give you your money back).

Approved logo

No risk or loss of sleep; just 100% protection

Rest assured that you’ll never be out of pocket when you book an I-PRAC accredited property with Luke Stays. This is something Airbnb cannot promise you.

I-PRAC is the only global verification and membership platform for legitimate short-term rental and serviced accommodation providers, who want to guarantee 100% trust with guests.

After you’ve booked directly with us, all you need to do is look forward to your stay (and not waste any energy on chasing up unreliable accommodation providers).

It’s hospitality as its best - minus any of the stress.

So, Will You Become Our Next Happy Guest?
