Cloudbeds has launched the Cloudbeds Collection, a curated global showcase of 100 independent hospitality properties “shaping the future of the industry through intentional design, unconventional business models, community impact and bold creative vision,” according to the company.
“These properties are physical expressions of the hoteliers behind them,” said Adam Harris, CEO/cofounder, Cloudbeds. “The Cloudbeds Collection captures the full range of what hospitality can be today because it’s built by people who chose to do things differently—on purpose. Their independence is intentional, and it shows in every detail of the guest experience.”
Spanning more than 30 countries, the Cloudbeds Collection brings together a portfolio of hotels, resorts, hostels and alternative accommodations across five continents.
The collection is organized around creative themes that highlight different expressions of hospitality, including:
- Designed with intention: Properties where place and purpose guide every decision, from Al Moudira (Egypt), a palace-like retreat handcrafted by local artisans on the Nile, to Ultima Collection (Switzerland), a design-forward collection of chalets and boutique hotels defined by personalized luxury and a strong sense of place.
- Designed for connection: Spaces built to bring people together, including Valentines Resort & Marina (The Bahamas), a laid-back luxury retreat on Harbour Island where shared waterfront spaces, dining and marina life create natural points of connection, and Mad Monkey Hostels (Southeast Asia), known for their social energy and community-driven experiences.
- Designed for escape: Remote wonders requiring intention to reach, such as Severin Safari Camp (Kenya) and OVO Patagonia (Argentina), which offers capsules suspended 270 meters high on a rock face.
- Designed for indulgence: Properties redefining luxury through craftsmanship and privacy, such as Azulik (Mexico) and Nay Palad Hideaway (Philippines), a resort reborn from a typhoon as a symbol of sustainable resilience.
- Designed to break the mold: Properties challenging hospitality’s traditional playbook. This includes The Zero Hotels (Portugal), which turned sleeping into an art form with their “box lodge” concept, and Vacatia (U.S.), which is modernizing the timeshare experience with a streamlined platform that prioritizes flexibility, transparency and long-term value for guests and owners alike.
- Designed differently: Properties where architecture and creative expression are the main event, such as Casa Hoyos (Mexico), an eclectic design sanctuary where colonial history meets avant-garde Mexican art, and Acoma House (U.S.), an immersive art hotel in Denver where every room is a unique canvas created in collaboration with local artists.
The Cloudbeds Collection highlights properties that utilize the Cloudbeds platform to compete head-to-head with major brands while maintaining their unique identity.
