Our CEO, Doron, has always been the kind of traveller who reads every review before booking a place.

While searching Airbnb for a trip, he went through the usual frustrations – listings that weren’t really available, unclear information and too much guesswork. He eventually booked his third-choice home simply because the first two fell through.

But when he arrived, everything changed. The home was extraordinary – beautifully furnished, with sweeping views and a breakfast basket delivered fresh from the local market each morning. It was one of the best stays he’d ever had, yet nothing in the listing or its reviews had hinted that this place was special. Other homes with similar ratings looked entirely ordinary.

That sparked a question: What if every traveller could feel like they’d hit the jackpot, every single time?

Plum Guide is not just a booking platform, we're a global benchmark for quality.

There are 15+ million vacation homes online. The choice can be overwhelming, and quality varies wildly. Plum Guide’s mission is simple: to vet every rental home in the world and select only the top 3%.

We combine data, technology and human expertise to assess each home. Only homes that pass our extensive testing make it into the collection.

Once you book, your host manages your stay directly and is your main point of contact – they’ll be on hand for any questions or requests. And of course, our team is always here if you need us.

We guarantee peace of mind with every booking.
