GBThirdhome is the ultimate travel… Thirdhome is the ultimate travel platform, a truly one of a kind luxury home owner vacation resource. Our family has benefitted immensely from Thirdhome, allowing us to travel all over the world and stay in luxe accommodations for a small fraction of the cost compared to renting homes or booking hotels. The Thirdhome website offers thousands of incredible properties. It's comforting to share our own property with other members since everyone is extremely well vetted prior to being approved. Best choice we have made for our family in regards to travel. The Thirdhome team is always on the ready to help and we simply could not be more impressed with their dedication to serve their members.

GBThis company provides excellent service… This company provides excellent service from the team. The properties are world class. And they have always been honorable and delivered what was expected, as I have been a third home member for over 10 years.

GBDo not recommend to use this company Do not recommend to use this company. We signed up as the sales person made a lot of promises but then found out: - Most of properties are based in certain part of USA and Mexico, we rarely are able to find anything that is useful for us - The fee that they charge is ridiculous, it is actually cheaper to book an all inclusive 5 star hotel if you add the booking fee they charge plus the money we lose for letting other owners use our properties for free - They don’t do anything considering the fees that they charge and expecting the owner to sort out all the guests, pay cleaner fees etc.. - You must read the small print as you can not cancel the booking once you agree to it - We constantly get message from the sales people asking if their senior people could use our property for free. The message they sent sounded like their senior people are some of god and it is our privilege to have them, unbelievably condescending. - Also at the end, we discovered there is a membership fee on top all the booking fees! They blocked our sites and would not let us use our keys unless we pay for it!!! Basically it is some sort of scheme trying get 2nd or 3rd home owners to LET OUT their properties for FREE and they make a lot of money out of it!

CHThirdhome takes it all, owner gets back little to nothing I was really enthusiastic about the concept and put in 4 weeks of availability to get points for a holiday with my family. However, when trying the use the accumulated points it has been impossible to find an available home for me and my family. When I looked a few months ago for something for the summer, there were only 2 places in Spain in July and August, and the availability period of the house near the beach was 3 days (how is that possible, if owners have to put in entire weeks? Coincidently, it always seems to be the same house that’s available). In the meanwhile, though, Thirdhome has made at least USD 3-4,000 in fees off my house, while I have to pay the cleaning, heating etc. For example, for the group I had in winter heating costs were $200-300 for the week and cleaning a similar amount. At the same time, Thirdhome is charging $295 in membership fees PLUS $500-1400 per exchange that you make with your points. Thirdhome told me two years ago they were onboarding a lot of new properties. They convinced me to hang on but the promises have been just words with nothing to show for it. My points are expiring soon and I will leave with a great deal of disappointment. I have had exchange guests who did have a better experience, but I think you have to be able to travel off seasons and to the US and the Caribbean to make use of the points.

GBThird Home is a really great for us… Third Home is a really good set up and option for me and my family. We own a ski in/ ski out property in Colorado and have enjoyed it for many years. However, we use it a bit less as the kids got older and wanted to figure out monetizing it but not just renting it to whomever. ThirdHome is the perfect fit. We get amazing vacations to other members properties and all people (who also own properties) to stay at ours. We are going to Mexico and Hawaii this year for next to nothing because of ThirdHome’s program. We know our property will be better cared for from ThirdHome members, and we do the same when we travel to their amazing properties. It is an awesome exchange program.
