The world is awash with vacation rental companies in wonderful locations that have long since been attractive destinations among the most sophisticated travelers. But is offering high-end homes in top locations enough on its own to determine how satisfying and memorable a vacation will be? The travel enthusiasts at Tripwix believe a memorable stay is crafted long before the guest arrives. This involves a highly selective process to find the best of the best properties in each location as a team of professional inspectors scour home furnishings, bedding, and details to evaluate which category each home fits into, then skilled reservation staff matches the client’s needs to the perfect property. Once the guest is in-house, the local “friend-of-a-friend” ambassador takes care of the already pre-discussed itinerary and all the guests’ needs.   

This approach has been praised not only by sophisticated travelers from around the world but also by the experts of the Luxury Lifestyle Awards, who crowned Tripwix as Best Villa Rental and Accommodation Services in Portugal 2022.  

Tripwix’s inspiring journey began in 2016 when three friends and seasoned travelers confronted the poor service in the luxury home rental marketplace and the lack of any guarantees offered to travelers. Lisa Bruno, Miguel Carvalho, and Francisco Bessa have different backgrounds, but they share a love of travel, a commitment to quality in detail, and a passion for helping others get the most out of discovering beautiful homes, incredible interiors, and friendly service. They decided to combine their energy and experience to present a luxury portfolio of rental homes that will meet their highest standards and the needs of the most discerning travelers.  

Lisa, Miguel, and Francisco named their luxury lodging company Tripwix, combining “trip” with “wix,” an urban slang word for something trendy or cool. Today the company is a highly qualified international team that finds the best homes in the most interesting locations, constantly expanding Tripwix’s impressive portfolio of destinations.  

Each home in the portfolio is thoroughly and personally inspected by Tripwix representatives. Only properties that meet Tripwix’s strict standards make it to the list of the best. These properties vary in style, ambiance, and location. This allows the company to meet the expectations of its wide variety of customers, each of whom has its own vision of the perfect vacation.  

Tripwix specialists get to know customers and their families intimately, learning more about their lifestyles and listening to their travel expectations. Based on this information, they then suggest options from the portfolio that meet the client’s requirements. When the perfect destination and home is chosen and clients arrive at the location, they are placed in the caring hands of local Tripwix Ambassadors who cater to clients’ needs and orchestrate unique experiences that become etched in memory. 

However, travelers are not the only ones whose lives Tripwix makes happier. Luxury homeowners in sought-after destinations in Barbados, Portugal, Greece, Mexico, Spain, Turkey, and Italy can partner with the company and benefit from renting out their property to the right kind of guests while also receiving a personalized service themselves. If the home meets Tripwix’s standards for location, comfort level, and architectural and design aspects, homeowners can enjoy rental income as well as the assurance of peace and security provided by the local ambassador and wider Tripwix team. In addition, homeowners can become members of the exclusive Tripwix Homeowner Club and receive many more additional benefits, including discounts on rentals and travel.
