What is the 100 Collection™?
Exclusive Imprint
THE DISCERNING TRAVELER'S GUIDE TO CURATED VACATION HOMES.
We independently evaluate vacation rentals, awarding our exclusive imprint to properties that deliver the highest standard of hospitality in each unique location. Every one of the rental homes approved by The 100 Collection has been selected by a panel of our team members. We use a thorough, extensive vetting process to verify that the home you walk into when you arrive at your destination will not only match the pictures you fell in love with online, but exceed your expectations.
When we vet properties, we look at more than just the bare minimum. Our partners don’t just keep their properties immaculate and well-maintained. They go the extra mile.
THE DETAILS THAT SET OUR PARTNERS APART

WHY THESE DETAILS MATTER
They’re the details that will turn your vacation into an extraordinary experience.
Plus, all of our properties are run by local management companies that provide 24/7 guest support. When you find your next getaway through The 100 Collection™, we’ve done the research for you.
No more combing through endless reviews, struggling to connect with out-of-reach management, or walking into a property that falls short of what was posted online.
WHY ARE WE CALLED THE 100 COLLECTION™? Because our partners properties best represent their destination 100% of the time, meet our exclusive standards 100% of the time, and represent their local community 100% of the time. SIMPLY PUT: WE DON'T SETTLE FOR LESS THAN 100%, AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU.
What This Means For Guests
Over the last decade, the vacation rental industry has ballooned. And the few major companies that dominate the marketplace right now are trying their best to turn travel into a Commodity.
COMMODITY: A standardized good, which is traded in bulk and whose units are interchangeable. Oxford Reference - Standardized - Traded In Bulk - Interchangeable
They want you to spend your precious time and money on experiences that could be easily replicated anywhere in the world. Why? Because creating a standardized, one-size-fits-all experience is easier and requires less effort than curating beautiful, local vacations for discerning travelers.
For companies that value their bottom line over providing life-changing experiences for guests, turning your time off into a standardized, interchangeable, bulk commodity is a no-brainer.
You've probably been on trips like this. Bland accommodations with institutional hotel furniture and parking-lot views. Nowhere to eat close by besides the same chain restaurants you can visit at home. Crowded attractions, and you've probably gone home feeling more tired than when you left.
Immerse Yourself
You deserve so much better
By choosing to travel, you're putting yourself out there. Travel is brave. It's venturing somewhere different to 'do as the Romans do'. It's immersing yourself in a place that you're not used to because the rewards might be immense.
It requires sacrificing scarce vacation time, hard-earned money, and the comfort of your home. And like all brave actions, it requires an element of risk.
At The 100 Collection , we love risk, but only when it's exciting, significant, and meaningful.
Reconnect
In other words:
We want you to experience the risk of ziplining or SCUBA diving for the first time, not the risk of booking accommodations that simply don't live up to your expectations.
We're here to support you as you choose the right risks. We want you to soak up every drop of wonder and beauty you can from each new place you visit, to set aside the mundane for the spectacular so you can reconnect with what matters. And we believe that the best way to help you do that is by connecting you with rental properties that take care of all the mundane stuff for you.
