Experiences
Guests are hungry for new, insider led experiences on their trips, something that stands out from the sightseeing circuit, that creates special memories and connections. Many of the Distance Travelled hosts are artists, creatives and tastemakers and together we can offer new and immersive experiences for our guests. It could be a special skill you have such as photography, illustration or breadmaking. It could be that you are simply an excellent cook and you are interested in offering homemade meals for your guests. If you think you would like to offer an experience, let’s talk!

Checkin & Checkout
Distance Travelled, has a dual passion for people and traveling. We always try to find special places to stay and don’t mind what type of accommodation it is. What matters to us is the host’s story, style, and originality.
We promote your work & story in our content. Adding other possibilities from exposure and collaborative projects.
There are a lot of great travel websites out there, but most are a bit overwhelming. Distance Travelled is a carefully selected collection of our very favorite people + places, for like-minded travelers – it’s like a list of recommendations we’d give to our friends who plan to visit.
We visit all the places that we feature, and we get to know the people behind it. We wanted to share our host stories with others, so they can enjoy what you have created as much as we do. Our guests value your personal style.
A team member will be available for you 24hrs a day whilst your home is rented.
If we have full management, we take care of your home as if it were our own, and it is returned to you just as you gave it to us.
The distance traveled hotel package is second to none. Beautiful linen bedding. Our own hand made organic toiletries, our trademark Indian quilts. 24-hour host concierge service.
Listing your property on the site is free. We charge comparative commission fees to other well-known platforms. We differ slightly for a more tailored offer as in package 2.
Invoicing for the commission is monthly after you have been paid directly from the other directories we manage for you, or from us.
Most of our homeowners travel often and enjoy earning the cost of their trips through renting their homes whilst they are away.
