HauteLook, a leading online private sale website with more than 3.5 million members, announces the launch of HauteLook Getaways, a new category offering upscale travel experiences in the U.S. and abroad, all at spur-of-the-moment prices up to 60% off published prices. From luxury and boutique hotels to full trip packages, each Getaways offering will be specifically selected as inspiration for HauteLook members to discover new destinations or indulge in an exciting escape without breaking the bank.
Beginning today, the new Getaways category will feature three to seven travel sale events per week, with each event typically on sale for seven days. Members will be able to browse photos of the property, get detailed information on the location, read insider tips about amenities and activities, and book their dates directly on HauteLook – no gift certificates or phone calls required.
“We’re excited to bring the travel business to HauteLook as a natural complement to our existing portfolio of apparel, accessories, beauty, kids and home categories,” says Adam Bernhard, CEO of HauteLook. “Our members already trust us to offer great fashion and style brands at great prices, and now HauteLook Getaways will allow them to take spontaneous weekend trips or well-earned vacations in a way that will fit their lifestyle and budget.”
To accelerate the launch of Getaways, HauteLook recently acquired Private Sale LLC, the operator of BonVoyou.com, a Chicago-based website providing members-only travel deals.
“HauteLook Getaways offers an easy, streamlined experience for both our members and our hotel partners,” says Jeff Eckerling, one of the founders of BonVoyou and now General Manager of Travel for HauteLook. “With BonVoyou’s user-friendly technology and HauteLook’s millions of engaged members, we are extremely excited about the possibilities for travel on the site.”
For the launch of Getaways, HauteLook will be offering the most desirable luxury and boutique properties in top travel destinations including Napa, Chicago, Cabo, Miami, San Diego, and the Las Vegas Strip. And, to celebrate, members who visit any Getaways event Monday, November 15 through Friday, November 19, will be entered to win a HauteLook credit to use towards a future Getaway. One $500 credit will be awarded each day.
As always, membership to HauteLook is free and open to everyone. New members can join now by visiting www.hautelook.com.
