Luxury villa rental leader Villas of Distinction is once again raising the bar for travel advisor support, extending its standout bonus commission program through July 31, 2025. The initiative—already one of the most agent-friendly in the industry—offers up to $5,000 in bonus commission per booking, paid at the time of deposit rather than post-travel.
In a market where most commissions are delayed until guests check out, Villas of Distinction’s early payout structure is a game-changer for advisors looking to boost cash flow while catering to high-end clients. The offer applies to all new bookings made through July 2025 for travel through December 2026, regardless of the client’s destination, travel season, or villa tier.
“You don’t wait to deliver exceptional service—so why wait to be rewarded?” said Steve Lassman, vice president of villa product and agency relations. “This program allows advisors to earn on every villa, in every season, and it’s one more way we’re showing our commitment to their continued success.”
Advisors can take advantage of this incentive across the brand’s global portfolio, which includes beachfront escapes in the Caribbean, countryside estates in Europe, luxury homes in the U.S., and new additions in destinations like Sweden, Japan, Costa Rica, and London. Recent standouts include Villa del Cielo in Costa Rica’s Guanacaste region, and Yukihyo, a serene architectural retreat in Japan’s forested highlands.
Beyond the payout, Villas of Distinction offers practical tools to help advisors grow their villa business, including access to Villa Specialists who are familiar with the inventory, customizable marketing assets, and regular training sessions. The advisor-first model has earned the company accolades like multiple gold wins for “Best Villa Rental Company Overall” at the Travvy Awards.
