A second chance for hotel bookings

If you can't use a non-refundable booking, someone else can enjoy it. You get part of your money back, they travel for less, and we make sure the handover is safe for both of you.

Who's behind it

Born from losing bookings

Esther Jiménez is a businesswoman from Seville with connections in the hotel industry.

Like so many travellers, she lost several non-refundable hotel bookings when her plans changed. The money was simply gone, and there was no easy, safe way to pass the booking on to someone else.

That's how SecondBook started: so people who can't travel get part of what they paid back, and people looking for a hotel find one for less, with the name change handled by us.

Where we are

We've just started, from Seville. We review every booking before it's listed and handle every name change with the hotel ourselves.

What we believe in

  • Trust

    Every booking is listed with its proof, and we review it before it goes on sale. The payment is held until after the stay.

  • Clarity

    Buyers pay the price they see. Sellers list for free and only pay a fee if their booking sells.

  • Real people

    There are people from our team behind every sale. Message us on WhatsApp or by email whenever you need to.
