General Questions

  • What is Paradizo?

    Paradizo.com is your online luxury travel agency offering personalized travel management services. We have cultivated an exclusive portfolio of elegant accommodations, customized services and specialized insiders that value an enriching experience over a luxurious image.

  • How much does it cost?

    We market travel products and services available both on a stand-alone and package basis, under two business models, depending on the preferences of our travel suppliers. The first is the traditional or "postpaid model", where we act as an agent in the transaction, passing reservations booked by travelers to the relevant travel supplier. The second business model is the "prepaid model" (also known as the "net rate" model), where we collect the full amount from travelers up front and handle the payments to the travel suppliers ourselves. We offer the option for a company to create a "Basic" trial profile on Paradizo for free to promote its products and services. A basic profile might receive up to 5 exclusive leads in Paradizo Webmail (no commission fees to pay and no hidden cost). For further details about business models and available upgrades, contact us.

  • Are Leads coming directly from potential clients?

    Only travelers inquiries generated online from a Premium profile or featured products are sent to you directly. Inquiries sent to you by our Travel Concierge Team are subject to our commission based model.


Your Company Profile

  • Definition of a company profile

    Your company profile is your company's main page on Paradizo. It looks like this. On your company profile, you'll see your company description, a list of your services and service areas, and quick links to your posted listings, brochures, photos and news.

  • How did my company end up on Paradizo? I never requested to be on your site.

    Companies get listed on Paradizo in a few different ways:
    - We may have published one of your press releases about your company
    - We may have heard about your company from one of our current partners, such as LuxuryRealEstates.com
    - Our editors may have come across another reference to your company on the Internet, on websites such as Facebook, Twitter...
    We want to be a complete resource of luxury travel information for our readers and members, so we try to list all luxury travel suppliers worldwide.

  • How can I list my company?

  • Can I add multiple locations to my partner's account?

    We currently don't facilitate a way for one account to handle multiple locations. This has been brought up quite a bit and we are in the process of determining the right approach to this problem. In the interim each business location would have to have it's own account. Note, each one would require a seperate email as well.
