Glintz vs Adopted Adults

Find the stay first. Plan the trip later. Glintz is a swipe-based travel discovery app for unique stays, boutique hotels, design hotels and one-of-a-kind places around the world. Most travel apps start with a destination, dates and filters. Glintz starts with the place itself. Sometimes you do not know exactly where you want to go. You just know you want to find somewhere special — a beautiful boutique hotel, a quiet hideaway, a design-led escape, a romantic weekend stay, or a place that feels worth building a trip around. Glintz helps you discover those places visually, by swiping through curated stays selected for atmosphere, style and feeling. Swipe through unique stays, save the places you love and build your own collection of future trips. With Glintz, you can: • Discover unique stays, boutique hotels and design-led places • Swipe through curated hotels, villas, hideaways and luxury escapes • Find places you might never search for by destination alone • Save your favourite stays into your own travel collection • Explore by atmosphere, style and feeling — not just filters and star ratings • Shape your recommendations with every swipe • Visit the hotel’s website when you are ready to book • Find new places added regularly from around the world Glintz is for people who care about where they stay — not just where they go. Stop scrolling through endless hotel lists. Start discovering places worth travelling for.

Everyone has that one friend who lives somewhere interesting and happens to be a great host. You come stay, they cook for you, show you around, take you on the little adventures you'd never find on your own. Now imagine hundreds of those friends, in 566 cities and 74 countries. That's Adopted Adults. WHAT IT COSTS Nothing. The stay is free. No nightly rate, no cleaning fee, no resort fee for a resort you never saw. What it actually costs is a little awkwardness. Some small talk. A life story or two over breakfast. People told us that was too much to ask. We disagreed. HOW IT WORKS Everyone here hosts. That's the whole trick. You open your place up, and the door opens everywhere else too. 1. Build a real profile. Real photos, real answers, and you can verify your ID. 2. Browse adoptions. Not spare rooms, actual trips. A weekend of hiking. A food tour of a city you've never heard of. A cabin with a dog and a wood stove. 3. Start a convo. Talk first, plan it together, agree on the dates. 4. Go stay with someone who actually wants you there. WHY NOT JUST BOOK SOMETHING Airbnb has hosts. VRBO has hosts. But somewhere in there, "host" came to mean a lockbox and a welcome cookie. A good host cooks for you, shows you around, and somewhere along the way becomes your friend. There wasn't a word for that anymore, so we picked one. Here, you don't get hosted. You get adopted. SAFETY Adults only. Profiles are real people with real photos, members can verify their identity with a government ID, and every profile carries its history. One tap to report or block. Nobody here is anonymous. FOUNDING MEMBERS Our first 1,000 adopters keep it free for life.
