This isn’t just another directory.
We connect design-led stays and elevated experiences with travellers.
If your stay feels more like an experience than just accommodation, you’re in the right place.
The Stay Edit is selective by design. Every stay is reviewed through our curation framework across design, setting, guest experience, and overall brand alignment.
We don’t feature everyone, only stays that meet The Stay Edit framework.
It’s a curated stage for the kind of stays and experiences people plan trips around.

Elevate
From private chefs and yoga to wine tours, curated gifts, or luxury transfers – these experiences create something unforgettable. They’re designed to enhance the way guests connect with a stay, but can also be booked on their own for those seeking something a little extra.
That’s why Elevate has its own place within The Stay Edit. It’s where travellers discover the services that make a stay feel special, and where you’ll be seen by the right audience.
