Introducing Le Haus…

The Arms Race in Travel Isn’t Between Hotels, Airbnbs, Timeshares, or Holiday Homes.

It’s Between Headache and Ease.

For years, people thought the “choice” was settled. Hotels for consistency. Airbnbs for character. Holiday homes for control. Timeshares for budget. The lines were drawn.

But ask real travellers — couples, families, executives — and the truth is clear: none of these models solve the real problem.

Last summer, long before Le Haus was even an idea, I planned a family trip to London, Greece, and Italy. The work involved in this “plan” was staggering: endless research, countless options, hidden charges, shifting schedules. It was truly an organisational nightmare!

In London, we tried a home swap. It came with fees through a platform, and when we returned to Antigua, we discovered reckless damage left by the family who had stayed in our home. No deposit. No accountability. No recourse.

In Greece, we opted for an all-inclusive resort. A disaster in disguise. No suites for a family of five, just a choice between splitting the children into separate rooms or paying double. The buffet was crowded, the à la carte restaurants impossible to book, and the “all-inclusive” meant the cheapest food and drink brands imaginable. The property made it hard to leave, when all we wanted was to explore.

The Airbnb in Italy, first shifted the dates and then tried to reschedule completely. They had double booked. No notice, no warning, no apology. We cancelled. Too many moving pieces. Too many changes. Too much stress for something meant to be restorative and fun.

Hotels deliver service, but strip away soul.
Airbnbs offer charm, but pile on risk.
Holiday homes give control, but demand management.
Timeshares offer predictability, but restrict you.

The chase for options has created abundance — yet travelers still face scarcity.

Scarcity of ease. Scarcity of certainty. Scarcity of value. Scarcity of time.

That is why Le Haus was born.

Because what people actually want is simple:

  • The freedom of a holiday home without the responsibility.

  • The richness of an Airbnb without the gamble.

  • The service of a hotel without the impersonality.

  • The assurance of timeshare without the restrictions.

Le Haus takes away the scrolling, the second-guessing, the logistics that turn travel into another job.

One membership.
One concierge.

A curated portfolio of suites and villas where every detail is already designed for beauty, connection, and rest.

This isn’t another accommodation option. It’s the removal of friction — the last true moat in luxury travel. You can always build another hotel. You can always list another Airbnb. But you cannot manufacture peace of mind.

This is why Le.Haus isn’t just hospitality. It’s a members’ club. A movement and community that says the real luxury isn’t infinity pools or marble bathrooms. It isn’t even exclusivity. It’s time.

Time reclaimed from planning. Time lived instead of managed.

The arms race in travel isn’t about more listings, more keys, more destinations. It’s about who finally solves the problem travellers actually have.

Le Haus is that solution. Just let us know when you want to travel and we will do the rest.

Not another booking. Not another compromise.

But a reordering of travel around the irreplaceable: time well spent.

That’s the real story. And in HEIRonMIND, I write about the problems that Founders, Creatives, Investors, Innovators are all thinking or working on to make their next moves to lead more meaningful lives
