ServicesPreferred rates, upgrades and VIP privileges at the world's leading hotels — including sold-out and hard-to-book properties.

Ultra-Luxury Hotels & Private Islands

Request VIP books the world's most sought-after hotels, private villas and islands at preferred partner rates, with the privileges direct guests rarely see: upgrades, resort credits, guaranteed late check-out and management-level attention. When a property is officially sold out, we work our relationships — quietly, and usually successfully.

Ultra-Luxury Hotels & Private Islands

Preferred partner privileges

Complimentary upgrades, breakfast, spa or resort credits and early/late check-in at Aman, Cheval Blanc, Soneva, Velaa, Four Seasons and 1,500+ vetted properties.

Sold-out access

Festive-season suites, Monaco Grand Prix weekends, high-summer Riviera — we secure rooms that no longer exist on booking engines.

Private island buyouts

Full-island exclusivity with butler service, private chefs and security, from the Maldives to the Grenadines.

One point of contact

A single concierge handles the hotel, transfers, restaurants and in-stay requests across every time zone.

Why book through Request VIP

The rate you see published is where our conversation starts, not ends. As a preferred partner of the major luxury hotel programmes, we hold status the public cannot buy: our guests are flagged for upgrades before arrival, welcomed by name, and looked after when plans change. A cancelled flight or a shifted itinerary becomes our problem to solve, not yours.

From palaces to private islands

City palaces in Paris and London, beach estates in the Caribbean, ryokans in Kyoto, entire islands in the Indian Ocean. We personally know the general managers, the best rooms in each category, and the difference between a good suite and the right one. Tell us the occasion; we will tell you where it belongs.

FAQ

Are your rates higher than booking direct?

No. Our partner rates match or beat the hotel's public rate, and they arrive with privileges — upgrades, credits, flexible check-in — that direct bookings do not include.

Can you book a hotel that shows as sold out?

Very often, yes. We hold allocations with key partners and long-standing relationships with hotel management. Give us the dates and we will tell you honestly what is possible.

Do you handle full private-island buyouts?

Yes — from single-villa islands for two guests to full resorts for a wedding or a corporate retreat, including staffing, chefs and security.

Is there a fee for hotel bookings?

Standard hotel bookings carry no service fee; we are remunerated as a travel partner. Complex programmes — multi-property itineraries or buyouts — are quoted transparently up front.
