Soltie matches UGC creators with boutique hotels and villas. No follower count required — build a portfolio, get matched, and grow into paid work.
Guests don't leave a note. They just pick the next listing.
Most hotels get there the expensive way — one photographer, once, then nothing new for years. Personal, current content gets you the same result without the day rate.
Content that feels shot by a friend outperforms content that feels shot by a brand.
Same idea as before, on whichever platform guests are actually scrolling. Here's what "cheaper" actually looks like in real numbers.
Here's what hotel content usually costs — before Soltie even enters the picture.
One shoot. Ages the moment you stop booking someone.
Paid whether you need it that month or not.
The content stays theirs, not yours.
A fee only when a paid deal actually closes.
No upfront cost. No retainer. You only pay when it actually works.
Boutique villas and design-forward hotels — the kind of places people plan entire trips around — in exchange for real, usable content. Not vacation photos: the kind of shots and clips a hotel would actually put to work.
A portfolio, even a small one, is how you show you can deliver that. It's the only real bar to get started.
The stay is the pitch. The portfolio is the price of admission.
Build a portfolio through hosted stays, then move into paid work — hotels paying you directly for content once you've got a track record and a verified badge behind you.
The stay gets you in the door. The paid tier is what makes this more than a nice trip.
Most creators either work for free and hope it leads somewhere, or spend their own money to get content worth showing.
Working for free, hoping a brand notices. No guarantee it goes anywhere.
Real cash spent just to have somewhere worth shooting.
Dozens of emails for a handful of replies — most polite, most a no.
No upfront cost, and a hotel that already wants what you make.
The other paths cost you time or money before you've made a single dollar. This one doesn't.
Upload your best work. No followers or minimums needed.
Browse hotel listings by vibe and location. Identities stay hidden until both sides confirm.
Complete the stay, build a track record, and level up to paid deals.
Property vibe, content type, and what you're offering in return.
Anonymized portfolios matched to your style — not to follower counts. Filter by free-stay creators or paid, verified ones.
Once both sides accept, details unlock and the stay happens.
Every creator is reviewed before joining, every listing is checked, and names or contact details stay hidden until both sides accept — so hotels and creators are trusting the process, not gambling on a stranger.
Every creator vetted before they join.
Every listing verified before it goes live.
Details unlock only after both sides accept.
