Here we look at some alternatives that might just make your Australian luxury holiday dreams come true.

1. Kō

Kō’s co-ownership model is the ideal luxury alternative to AirBnb in Australia. This option allows you to own a property with one or more individuals and share the ownership and use of the property. This can be a great way to enjoy a luxury holiday home without the financial and time burden of owning the property outright.

There are several benefits to co-owning a holiday home, including shared expenses and responsibilities, the ability to divide up usage time, and potentially higher-quality properties that may not be affordable on an individual basis. To top it off, all Kō homes are fully managed so all owners need to do is pack and enjoy their holiday.

2. Stayz

Stayz is another holiday rental platform in Australia that offers a range of luxury properties. You can find everything from beachfront villas to luxury apartments in the city.

3. OneFineStay

4. Luxury Escapes

6. Vrbo

Vrbo is a holiday rental platform that offers a range of luxury properties in Australia. You can find everything from waterfront homes to mountain lodges.

These are just some of the luxury alternatives to Airbnb in Australia. Each platform offers unique features and amenities, so it’s important to do your research and find the one that best fits your needs and preferences.

Why others choose Kō and the co-ownership model

Co-ownership is a holiday home ownership model that is well established in the US and Europe, but is relatively new to Australia. 

Here are some of the benefits it offers: 

• True ownership, at a fraction of the total cost: you’re not just paying for the right-to-use. You have 100% ownership over your unit of the home.
• Fully managed: a team of professionals take care of the day-to-day management of the house, making the holiday home ownership experience stress and hassle-free. 
• Professional upkeep: maintenance costs are shared among all owners, in proportion to the shares owned. 
• Future sales: as you have 100% ownership over your share(s) of the home, you can choose to sell at any time, at any price you choose. 
• Access to multiple holiday homes: all Kō homes are eligible to be added to the THIRDHOME network, giving owners access to more than 14,000 luxury properties worldwide.
