About LuxPads
LuxPads was born out of frustration—and opportunity.
As a homeowner in Boulder, Colorado, I saw firsthand how platforms like Airbnb and VRBO were changing the short-term rental market. While they made it easier to list properties, they also added layers of fees, complexity, and friction for both owners and guests. It started to feel less like a direct connection—and more like a middleman-controlled marketplace.
At the same time, I noticed something else: during high-demand events like the Sundance Film Festival, there was a real gap. Corporate teams, production crews, and individuals were all looking for premium homes—but the process to find and secure the right place was inefficient, expensive, and often impersonal.
So I built LuxPads.
A Better Way to Connect
LuxPadsis designed to connect homeowners directly with renters—whether that's a brand hosting clients, a film team on location, or a family looking for an elevated experience during Sundance.
No unnecessary layers.
No bloated fees.
Just high-quality homes and direct relationships.
Built by an Owner, for Owners
This isn't a faceless platform. LuxPadswas created by someone who understands what it's like to open up your home—and what it should feel like to rent one.
We focus on:
- Premium properties in sought-after locations
- Direct communication between owners and renters
- Flexible, transparent arrangements
- Curated experiences during high-demand events
Focused on Sundance (for Now)
LuxPadsis currently centered around the Sundance Film Festival—one of the most unique and high-demand rental markets in the world. It's where timing, trust, and quality matter most.
Our goal is simple: make it easier for the right people to find the right homes—without the noise.
If you're a homeowner looking to maximize your property's potential during Sundance—or a renter looking for something better than the typical listing experience—LuxPads is built for you.
