OUR VISION

Your partner that reaches further — bringing you more of the right clients.

Avante showcases your property to niche platforms, NPOs, and travel clubs, giving you full exposure to the right clientele. We market and promote your property for you, and handle the back-end — payments, calendars, all of it. List once with Avante, and we do the rest.

SINCE 2004

Two decades of getting South African properties noticed.

Avante Hospitality was founded in 2004 by Jean Labuschagne, who's been developing and managing properties across South Africa and the rest of Africa since 1988. What started as a hands-on, personal way of getting properties into the right hands has grown into a booking platform of its own — without losing the personal touch that built it. Every property that lists with Avante is looked after by a small, dynamic team who know the local market, not a call centre. That's the difference between being one more listing on the open market, and being placed exactly where the right guests are already looking.

Three ways we get your property in front of the right guests

All included the moment you list — no extra work on your side.

01

Our own booking platform

Every property is listed on our own booking platform, focused on Africa, built for a global market.

02

Channel managers and niche platforms

Already with a channel manager? Great — we link up with them. If not, we'll push your property out to existing platforms and channels.

03

Our affiliate network

A network of affiliates and platforms promotes your property to the audiences most likely to book with you — putting you on the map, not just online.

A quieter option: closed properties

Not every owner wants their home on the open market. Avante also hosts closed properties — a private, niche listing option for owners who, for example, only want to rent their house out over the holidays. It's still distributed to the right affiliates and marketed to the right clientele, just without sitting on public search.

15% ex VAT
Commission — when your property is rented

For your guests, that discount feels like it's coming straight from you, not a travel agency — which is exactly what brings them back to your front door, time and again.

Get promoted by people who already have the audience

Once your property is listed and distributed, Avante opens it up to a network of affiliates — bloggers, agencies, community organisers and loyalty programs — who bring the right guests to your door. Whether you want to do the promoting yourself or you're a property owner looking to plug into that same affiliate network, there's a path in for both, already set up and ready to join.
