How We Work

Check video presentation to find out more about us

The concept of Alternative to hotel was borne from an idea that we had as a family whilst holidaying in the Caribbean, it has taken many years to come to fruition, however, we were possibly the first to float the idea of families worldwide who can share  or rent their spare room capacity  to accommodate budget conscious travellers.

Our family, with its mix of adventurers and explorers, can be described as the original Swiss Family Robinson. There was a general consensus that it would be a fantastic idea if others can experience what we were experiencing as a family, to wake up to a 5.30 am warm sunrise followed by a 6 am morning swim, and solitary stroll through the rain forest. This would  be the ideal way to revitalise the inner soul.

Upon our arrival in our host country we set about with passion, the task of selecting a team of enthusiastic people to participate in the construction of Alternative To Hotel. We had no knowledge of writing software or programming, so we enlisted the help of friends and associates, and soon realised that we were in over our heads, and the task at hand, required much funding and expertise to be developed efficiently. As it took much time to meet these requirements, others were able to bring similar product-offerings to market before we were able to do so.

We are a very easy organisation to work with,    and would welcome members’ ideas. Our aim is to build a global community of likeminded hosts and travellers, who can provide affordable accommodation for budget conscious travellers to worldwide destinations, with the benefits shared amongst our members.

We do this by empowering the home owner to utilise their spare capacity to earn unparalleled extra income by offering their spare room accommodation. We are faced with a worldwide problem of the high cost of travel and this has an impact on the average family budget. Very often, it is unaffordable for families to give their children the chance to travel and experience other cultures. And this can have a negative impact on their social development.

Our dedicated team of members around the world is on standby to assist and promote our aims. So join us and experience what we are all About.

From the eyes of our granddaughters these are the spitting images of the staff at Alternative To Hotel.

Alternativetohotel.com has entered this market at an opportune time, especially when we are adversely hit by economic challenges. We are an alternative to over-priced and very often unaffordable accommodation worldwide. We accord, under-utilised or vacant property owners the opportunity to join us and provide spare accommodation to potentially millions of travellers worldwide while generating a sustainable modest income. This is especially suitable for budget conscious people, back packers, college gap year adventurers, people who are conscious about costs. This alternative service presents an opportunity to everyone, who has cherished hopes to visit touristic spots of their dream countries but have never been able to. Let us build our community of hosts and travellers with lots of benefits.

“The old man was thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck. The brown blotches of the benevolent skin cancer the sun brings from its eflection on the tropic sea were on his cheeks. Everything about him was old except his eyes.”
