For the past 11 years, Airbnb has remained a cherished resource for the budget traveller. The company’s comprehensive offering has also made jaunting off on holiday with friends, finding a temporary crash pad when moving to a new locale or situating visiting family members close by, veritably seamless.

过去11年来，Airbnb一直是廉价旅行者的宝贵资源。该公司的全面服务还使得与朋友一起度假，在搬到新地点时找到一个临时的碰撞垫，或让来访的家人就近，确实是天衣无缝的。

Now, the home-sharing platform tackles a new arena – the world of luxury homes and properties. The newly inaugurated Airbnb Luxe launches with a 2,000 strong arsenal of unique and memorable properties right at your fingertips. From an architecture award-winning home occupying 50 acres near Lake Wanaka in New Zealand to the glass-walled Solaz Los Cabos in Mexico, residences and homes that you might not have thought would ever be available can now be yours to experience.

现在，这个家庭共享平台正在开辟一个新的舞台-豪华住宅和房产的世界。新落成的Airbnb豪华推出了2000个强大的武器库独特和难忘的物业就在您的指尖。从新西兰瓦纳卡湖附近占地50英亩的建筑获奖住宅到墨西哥的玻璃幕墙Solaz los Cabos，你可能从未想到过的住宅和住宅现在可以供你去体验了。

Each property has been vetted by over 300 different criteria, which maintain high standards of design and function. From the use of luxury finishes and materials to the presence of rare or unique design features; the availability of chef-grade appliances; a respectable bathroom to bedroom ratio; and communal spaces such as open-plan living areas and infinity pools, many of these residences boast a memorable combination of luxurious accommodations and stunning views and unparalleled privacy to boot. Whether its an open-air bungalow perched cliff side looking over Clifton Beach in Cape Town, or an epic ocean-view villa in Phuket where courtyards, lily ponds and a rooftop terrace also jostle for your attention, there’s not much more that one could ask for.

每一项财产都经过300多个不同标准的审查，这些标准保持了高标准的设计和功能。从豪华装修和材料的使用，到罕见或独特的设计特色的存在，厨师级家电的供应，体面的浴室与卧室的比例，以及开放式客厅和无限游泳池等公共空间，这些住宅中的许多都拥有令人难忘的豪华住宿、令人叹为观止的风景和无与伦比的隐私。无论是露天平房，俯瞰开普敦克利夫顿海滩的悬崖边，还是普吉岛一座壮观的海景别墅，庭院、百合花池和屋顶露台也在争相吸引你的注意力，但没有比这更多的东西了。

‘Today’s luxury traveller is craving more than just high-end accommodations; they seek transformation and experiences that leave them feeling more connected to each other and to their destination,’ says Airbnb co-founder Brian Chesky, who also serves as CEO and Head of Community. ‘With Airbnb Luxe, we are applying the same approach we’ve used since we launched Airbnb more than 11 years ago – creating local, authentic and magical travel moments now in amazing places to stay – to reimagine the way people think and experience luxury travel.’

Airbnb联合创始人布莱恩·切斯基(BrianChesky)说：“今天的奢侈品旅行者渴望的不仅仅是高端的住宿环境；他们寻求转变和体验，让他们觉得彼此有更多的联系和目的地。”Airbnb联合创始人布莱恩·切斯基(BrianChesky)还担任首席执行官兼社区负责人。“在AirbnbLuxe中，我们正在应用我们从11年前推出Airbnb以来使用的同样方法，创建了本地的，真正的和神奇的旅行时刻，在令人叹为观止的地方，让人们重新思考人们对奢华旅行的看法和体验。”

Airbnb Luxe clients are serviced by a dedicated, highly trained trip designer, who ensures that all aspects of the trip cater to each client’s personal needs. After booking the property, the trip designer also oversees a seamless check-in, along with booking any additional services, experiences and activities, be it childcare, private chefs or in-house massage therapists.

AirbnbLuxe客户端由一个专门的、高度培训的旅行设计师提供服务，他们确保行程的所有方面都满足每个客户的个人需求。在预订该房产后，旅行设计师还负责监督无缝入住，以及预订任何额外的服务、经验和活动，无论是儿童保育、私人厨师还是室内按摩治疗师。

The launch of Airbnb Luxe is made possible not just through the expertise gained through its acquisition of Luxury Retreats in 2017, but also for the fact that in 2018, the number of Airbnb bookings surpassing $1,000/night increased by over 60%. With plans to add comparable residences in 12 more urban cities this year - Los Angeles, London and Sydney are already represented - these luxury experiences can soon be enjoyed closer to home as well.§

Airbnb豪华酒店的推出不仅得益于2017年收购豪华公寓获得的专业知识，还因为2018年Airbnb酒店的预订量超过每晚1000美元，增幅超过60%。由于计划今年在另外12个城市增加类似的住宅-洛杉矶、伦敦和悉尼已经有了代表-这些豪华体验很快也可以在离家更近的地方享受到。
