LuxStay USA
Property Management

Built on Passion. Grown by Purpose.

One slope-side condo in Snowshoe became 46 oceanfront bedrooms in Corolla. Nine years on, one idea has not changed. We make vacations better.

Our Story

It started with a power plant, not a beach house.

Before LuxStay, Manish Paliwal built large-scale power plants with Mitsubishi in Japan. That work left him with a conviction that never faded: build things that last, at scale, around the people they serve. Two decades of Fortune 500 technology and finance work followed, and with them a second conviction. The vacation rental industry was underserving the guests it existed to delight. The first Snowshoe condo in 2016 was the proof. Guests did not simply come back. They wrote letters, sent photographs of their children on the slopes, and rebooked before they had checked out.

The Flagship

Three estates. Eleven private acres. One stretch of beach you cannot drive to by accident.

In 2021 LuxStay acquired The Three Authors: the Mark Twain, the Hemingway and the Fitzgerald. Forty-six bedrooms across eleven private oceanfront acres in Corolla's 4x4 zone, where the only traffic is wild horses. Book one estate or all three. It has since become the Outer Banks' largest private event campus, host to more than a hundred weddings, corporate retreats and milestone celebrations. The same standard now runs from that beach to slope-side Snowshoe, the Las Vegas Strip, the Smoky Mountains, Houston and the DC Metro area.

Every inquiry is answered by a real person. Usually one of these.
