Your escape is special, so is our platform

Blue Light Escapes is not just another online travel agency. We’re a members-only, mission-driven travel and wellness company exclusively for the blue light and armed forces community, with a clear focus on rest and recovery.

We exist to help those who give so much to take regular breaks with loved ones to recharge, disconnect and prevent burnout. As a host, you play a vital role in that mission. You’ll welcome vetted guests who are booking with purpose and appreciate quality escapes and the people behind them.

We’re currently welcoming values-aligned holiday rental owners and managers to list with us.

What makes us different

Mission-led

We’re a members-only travel and wellness platform focused on wellbeing and quality, not mass volume.

Curated listings

We don’t list everything. Only trusted, values-aligned hosts who meet our listing standards.

Closed pricing

Your rental and discount are visible only to verified members, not the public, ensuring exclusivity.

Fair terms & fees

You retain control over your rates and availability, and our fees are fair and transparent.

Wellbeing always

We only list safe, clean, legal escapes that provide space for rest, connection and peace of mind.

Escape experts

Our team guides members to your rental, matching their needs with your space.

FAQs

What listing models do you offer?: Currently, we offer an enquiry-only/click-through model for individual holiday rental owners. Your rental is listed on our platform for a fixed annual fee, and members are directed to book with you. No commission is charged. Instant booking through the platform is coming soon. If you’re a holiday rental manager, please get in touch with us for more details about our commission model.
What are your fees?: Our listing fee is £199 plus VAT every 12 months. For a limited time, we’re offering 20% off as a thank you for your early support. These fees cover platform running costs and dedicated support.
Can I still list on other platforms?: Yes, of course. We don’t require exclusivity.
How do I synchronise my calendar?: We use iCal links to sync calendars across platforms. iCal is a universal format, making it quick and simple to keep your booking schedules aligned.
Do I need to offer a discount?: Yes, please. We ask hosts to provide a meaningful discount to ensure our members always receive added value and make escapes more affordable. You can provide a percentage (for example 15% off) or a fixed discount amount (for example £50 off).
Is my PMS integrated?: We are building integrations soon. For now, only iCal sync is available for availability.
What control do I have?: You always stay in full control of your rental, including your rates, availability and booking terms.
How do members book?: Members discover your listing on our platform, then either click through to your website to book directly using their exclusive discount code or make an enquiry directly to you through our platform.
