This has been the buzz phrase for quite some time now. Curating your luxury short-term rental around quiet luxury is ideal to appeal to the masses and the wealthy. The sophistication and refinement allows for comfortable elegance, which is always at the top of my list as a design professional. Plush fabrics, comfy upholstery, and various layers of lighting help set the tone.
Keeping it real…as within my habitual candor. Great design isn’t an expense- rather an investment. It’s all about the flow of the space, how the space reads + feels, and the dope materials utilized to help tell “the” story. I’m ready to spill the tea on some lil architectural design secrets to higher return on investment just for my owners of short-term luxury rentals. If you’ve been wondering what it takes to transform your ordinary vacation rental to extraordinary luxe accommodations using tangible measurables, well let me share some of my secrets with you. I got you!
Soooo, here’s the situation at hand: most STR (short-term rental) owners misinterpret how simple architectural design decisions, like for example, layout, lighting, and material selection can translate into measurable profit and 5-star reviews.
Now, we’ve already discussed how we, as design professionals, intentionally design for an emotional + unforgettable guest experience, which encourages repeat bookings. Yesss! However, you must first get guests to book that luxury accommodation with you. You ask, well how do I do that? That part is actually simple: hire an experienced luxury architectural designer! First secret is out! Now, why should I invest in an experienced luxury architectural designer when I’ve been getting bookings with my own design scheme? Hmmmm… let’s get into that, shall we?
From a design perspective, we can pinpoint the full potential of the short-term rental and maximize it to the fullest utilizing design principals + elements to intentionally promote wellness, unity, and rejuvenation while encouraging curiosity. Through thoughtful imaginative planning and curating of elevated materials, we create classic but rather unique spaces that flow effortlessly evoking a positive feeling of balance, harmony, + order. Those simple design decisions is the difference between a 3 star review and a 5 star review or repeat bookings annually versus no repeat bookings at all. Luxury is always in. Luxury is always plush. Luxury is always ideal. It’s a lifestyle. It’s in high-demand. You can have it for your short-term rental. Yes, YOU CAN!

I cannot stress this enough: quality will never fail you. Quality over quantity, dahling.
Ensuring that you’re strategically maximizing your architectural design potential with key decisions will separate you from the pack. Especially, if your villa or chalet or bungalow is not themed out, but rather classic, stylish, and plush. Those luxurious details will not be overlooked….and will highlight your investment in many ways for many years. Trust. I promised to share some secrets….and yes indeed I shared; let’s do a quick review:
Hire an experienced luxury architectural designer.

As always, it is my complete joy to share my passion and educate as well. Hoping you guys enjoyed the spilling of the tea…I spilled some drops here and there. Most short-term rental owners really do not know what we do and how we do “it”, nevertheless, I love sharing and answering any questions regarding design processes and/or expectations. I wholeheartedly mean that. I’ve always felt that I was born to create, it’s in my blood…it’s my purpose.
Until next time,
Live. Love. Design.
