Your client says pet friendly. The guest wants to know if the dog can come to breakfast.
Crazy Daisy Travels is the verification platform for luxury dog-friendly hotels in Europe. We go, we stay, and we publish exactly where the dog could and couldn't go. Travellers planning a four figure trip read it before they book.
Nothing here is for sale. Not a listing, not a rating, not the badge.
Pet friendly is a filter. It isn't an answer.
Every booking site has a pet friendly tick box. It gets a traveller a room and a page of rules. It doesn't tell her whether the dog can sit under the table at dinner, walk through the lobby, lie beside the sunbed, or come to breakfast in the morning.
So she books the safe, boring place instead. Or she doesn't book at all. That uncertainty costs your client the booking, and it costs them the guest who spends the most, because the people asking these questions are booking suites rather than standard rooms.
We started keeping records because nobody else would. That record is now the platform.
Can my dog...
And the one every reader remembers. Would Daisy come back?
Four five star resorts in Crete, answered honestly.
All four are Daisy Approved. All four are wonderful hotels. They still give a dog owner four completely different holidays, and until we published this, there was nowhere to find that out.
| Can the dog come to | Domes Zeen Chania | Domes Noruz Chania | Domes Aulus Elounda | NIKO Seaside Resort |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Breakfast | Yes | No | Yes | No |
| Dinner | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| The bar | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Pool area | Yes | Partly | No | No |
| Beach | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
We publish the no as plainly as the yes, and we say "unknown" rather than guess. That's the reason a reader believes the yes, and it's why hotels that do welcome dogs properly get the credit they've earned.
The films.
Every stay produces social films as well as the written review. Daisy carries the personality, the voiceover carries the practical detail, and the property is the reason both work. The third film is the one we point agencies at. That property has since closed, and people still arrive in the comments to say they went to book it.
An audience that saves, then books.
Core audience is the UK and Ireland, with Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium and France growing fastest. They travel with small dogs, they drive or fly in cabin, and they're comparing properties at €300 to €600 a night.
We optimise for shares and saves rather than likes, because a save is somebody quietly planning a trip.
What we can do for your clients.
Press stays
Daisy visits, and we publish a full first-hand review, a hotel listing with the complete dog access matrix, and social films from the stay. The coverage isn't charged for. The property covers the stay itself. We tell you what we found, and we publish it whether it flatters the hotel or not.
Editorial features
Client properties appear in destination guides, honest comparisons and the searchable hotel catalogue on merit. There's no placement fee and there never will be. If a property belongs in a piece, it goes in, and if it doesn't, no budget changes that.
Paid partnerships
Briefed campaigns, ambassador work, and licensed films and photography for the client's own channels and paid media. This is the only part of what we do that carries a fee. Rate card on request.
That's why a hotel earns Daisy Approved.
A property that welcomes a dog properly gets a published review, a permanent listing in the catalogue with its full access detail, the social films from the stay, and the Daisy Approved badge to display on its own site, linked back to the review so guests can read exactly why it was earned.
The badge is earned in person and never sold. That's the only reason it's worth anything.
How the badge works
Which of your clients actually welcomes dogs?
Tell us the property and we'll tell you straight away whether it suits, what a stay would cover, and what the client would end up with. If it isn't right for us, we'll say so rather than waste your time.
