Discovering the Magic of Property Exchanges

We created this platform for one simple reason:

Even the best-run holiday lets sit empty for part of the year

We’re building a circular, connected travel economy — one powered by purpose, not just profit.

Our Mission

Use What’s Already There

We believe the most sustainable thing you can do is use what already exists. Empty holiday properties are a missed opportunity — not just economically, but socially and environmentally. Every swap or stay gives life to a place that might otherwise sit in silence.

Real Over Perfect

We don’t do fluff or performative promises. This is about practical solutions, not polished perfection. If it works, if it makes sense, if it genuinely helps people — that’s what we are building.

Keep the Lights On

We believe in keeping doors open, kettles boiled, and local life alive — even outside the high season. Empty homes turn lively places into ghost towns.

Made Together

We’re a startup — still learning, evolving, and improving. We listen, we adapt, and we grow alongside the people who use our platform. Convert Your Stay is shaped by the community it serves.

Unlearn and Unlock

Most people book holidays the way they always have — sticking to what they know, and missing out on what they don’t. We’re here to challenge that and unlock a smarter, more meaningful way to travel.

The Chief Converts

Meet the Team

I'm Natasha
(Founder)

I’ve always loved the concept of home exchanges. I’ve swapped my holiday property for stunning stays across the world. I’ve worked remotely from some incredible locations. I’ve surprised friends with unforgettable weekends away. And I’ve given my children the gift of magical travel — all without paying for a single night.

I’ve lived the exchange lifestyle. I know what works and what doesn’t — and now I’m building the platform that finally makes it effortless.

My Mission

With a background in luxury property management — and a life centred around meaningful travel — I want to help holiday property owners get more than just bookings. I want to help you turn unbooked nights into unforgettable experiences — without stress and without compromise.

Convert Your Stay is more than a platform.
It’s a mindset. A movement. A smarter way to travel.

Stop leaving value on the table

Join me — and let’s redefine what’s possible with your holiday property.

"It’s like the film The Holiday, only real. I’ve swapped homes more times than I can remember."

"we connect the properties already built with the people who already care - everyone wins"

I'm Max
(Co-Founder)

The idea began with my sister (Natasha), who first saw the potential in swaps through her own travel experiences. After a few family holidays using these exchanges, my eyes were opened. We saw how incredible—but also how frustrating—the experience could be: full of promise, yet lacking in user-friendliness, reliability, and service. We knew it could be better.

I thought it was an amazing concept—so simple, yet so underused. I couldn’t believe it wasn’t already being embraced by the millions of properties around the world that sit empty for much of the year.

So we created Convert Your Stay: a simple, effective way for owners to earn value from nights that would’ve otherwise sat empty.

My Mission

What we’re building:
Convert Your Stay isn’t just another booking site—it’s a smarter way to unlock the hidden value in your property’s unbooked nights. Our unique system gives property owners access to travel in exchange for nights that were going to be empty. We help owners get more from what they already have.

If you own Holiday property and/or a Short Term Rental and want to get more from it, come and join us!

“One home swap and I was hooked. The idea made perfect sense — the execution didn’t. So we built something better”
