The idea of accommodation swapping for holidays has been around for some time, but somehow you just never get around to "organizing" it - right? It's just too much hassle and besides which, trying to coincide amicable dates for a "one on one" swap is a logistical nightmare that you really don't need in your busy life. But you like the idea if there was a simple and cost effective way of going about it - right? If your answer is "no", cheerio! if you want to know more read on!! ....

There are already schemes on the market for "home" owners and "hoteliers" but this one is specifically designed for Self-catering, Bed &Breakfast, Guest House and Guest Lodge establishments (although hotel and home owners are welcome to join as well)

This is NOT a "one on one" swap scheme! Nor do you need to commit a certain number of "bed nights" each month to the scheme, thereby impacting on your busy income season - it is far more flexible and accommodating than that. With Accommodation Swap you are able to design your own schedule and utilize the scheme as best fits your needs by referring to a "pool" of participants from which you can choose to arrange a swap.Here is how it works:

A brief outline of how it works:

    • You participate by registering and submitting your details, brief description of your establishment, what dates/months would suit you to have fellow members in your establishment.
    • On registration and submission of a nominal joining fee of R280,00 and thereafter an Annual renewal fee of R280,00 payable in June you will be credited with twenty eight free bartering days (credits) and a unique, personal, reference number for security, after which you can immediately start trading.
    • When you want to go on holiday you log on to the "Accommodation Swap" web site, choose the area where you want to holiday and then make your choice from the establishments listed in the "tables". You can view their web sites and details from there.
    • You then make direct arrangements with the owner of the establishment of your choice.
    • On receiving your query, the owner checks the validity of your request with "Accommodation Swap" .(security check)
    • After a successful transaction the owner notifies Accommodation Swap and their account is credited with the amount of days (credits) used and your account is debited with the corresponding amount of credits.
    • Its as simple as that! No fuss, no additional "hidden" fees or levies, this is the bottom line. We guarantee that you will not find a better or more cost effective deal than this! most existing or similar schemes will cost you upward of R1000,00 annual joining/subscription fees which is a lot of money to waste if you don't get around to spending your credits each year.
    • Our fees are structured to encourage you to remain a member even if you have a busy season and don't find the time to take that well earned break.Even if you don't trade credits for a couple of years the membership fee is so low that you will make it all up with just one nights swap.
